The Blacklist Season 3 [Blu-ray]
DVD Wholesale Quick Overview:
As Season 3 gets underway the manhunt for ex-FBI Agent Keen is underway. It’s much harder for Keen because she shot the Attorney General, but his last words to her and Harold Cooper were that there was nothing they could do about it. Reddington of course has other ideas and that is to take the fight to the Cabal and in he first half of the season that is just what he & Liz do.
A truce of sorts is reached with the capture and exposing of the Director of the Cabal and Clandestine Services at the CIA. Liz is cleared of all charges except that shooting of AG. She gets 3 years probation but loses her job at the FBI and her ability to carry a gun. It becomes common knowledge who she is (was), a daughter of a Russian spy and now has less anonymity than she had before (because now more people know that she was born to Russians).
As the season progresses Liz we find is pregnant and wants to marry Tom at a church and the wedding is interrupted by a group of 26 people armed to the teeth and being directed with someone like Aram using a defunct satellite network. They fail in their mission to capture Liz whom we find out is the target but wanted alive. A chase ensues and Liz eventually holds up at a club turned emergency hospital. Tom is now a loan parent who wants to avenge his wife’s death and at the same time has to take care of the baby who is premature. This is one of the saddest moments of the series. How could the writers do this? What were they thinking?
The next episode is one of the strangest ones in that it’s really about Red and what is going on in his mind. That episode ends with Red stumbling across a guy who was using a metal detector to dig up what turns out to be a locket from Liz’s mom who supposedly committed suicide on that same beach some 25+ years earlier. What?
Later we learn that Tom and the baby are on their way to meet Liz who is still alive and it was Mr. Kaplan who decided that her commitment was to Liz and her baby, Agnes, ahead of Raymond. We also learn that Tom (who went by the name of Jacob Phelps) has a Mom whom he wanted to kill by the name of Susan Hargrave because she was working for Alexander Kirk who we come to find in the end says that he is Liz’s father, Konstatin Rostatov and has both Liz and the Baby who is on the way to him.
So more threads were sown up and new threads created and unraveled. The show is entertaining and at times hard to follow. I am hooked and now watching Season 4
with 5 on tap knowing that 6 will be broadcast soon.- Dan J
Love this season (actually love all the seasons) one of the best series ever. I may have misstated on my review of season 4 and said season 5, sorry my mistake. The series is so suspenseful and full of questions cannot say enough geat about it. Love James Spader. My husband and I both love watching and hope the series continues for a very long time.
