Undercover operative Tom Keen joins forces with Susan &quot;Scottie&quot; Hargrave, the brilliant and cunning chief of Grey Matters, a covert mercenary organization that solves problems governments don&#39;t dare touch. While on the hunt for his wife&#39;s attacker, Tom secretly discovered that Scottie is actually his biological mother, which drew him closer to her. Now,they team up to employ their unique skills and resources in a dangerous world of deadly criminals, Tom begins his own mission to find out more about his shadowy past. For me, this first episode lived up to my high expectations. I am a big fan of Tom Keene and the other characters who are in search of redemption by doing bad for good causes pleased me too.<br/><br/>I think the tension between the personas and pitches of Tom&#39;s parents make for an intriguing subplot. My hunch is the father is actually the bad guy even though he is presented mainlythe good guy in episode 1.<br/><br/>I think this series will win fansit gets time to develop and hope no premature decisions are made about its fate. If viewers can show some willingness to try a new twist on a solid tale and NBC can show some courage in their commitment, I predict Blacklist Redemption will be a winner. I have always been and will always be a fan of &quot;The Blacklist&quot;. I think that is because of James Spader and his acting skills. He brings a lot to the show every time he speaks. I even learned to like Ryan Eggold &quot;Tom Keen&quot;the series continued. This series, however, does not have a lead Character, to carry the show. The entire cast seems to be made up of supporting type actors. I have to assume that Famke Janssen is considered the lead Actor/Actress in this series, but she just isn&#39;t good enough to carry a series. I have enjoyed her past work and don&#39;t want to sound like I am blaming her for this poor rating. There didn&#39;t seem to be much effort put into the script for the premiere. It was just standard good guy vs Bad Guy stuff for today&#39;s political climate. I don&#39;t expect much from actors/actress&#39;s these days, but even bad actors require a good script to work from. The Director had to take some responsibility here too. He should have been able to see that this was kind of a paint by numbers script.
