Too much of everything

From my favorite movies..

A different way of telling a story

It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

So far I'm enjoying this. Tom makes a pretty good main character, and it focuses on his history and backstory with very little involvement of characters from the original series. I really liked the first couple seasons of the original Blacklist, but the recent story lines around Tom and Elizabeth's daughter became dull and uninspiring. All in all its got interesting story lines and good action sequences.

Instead of team of cute cuddly family-oriented geniuses, each with their own specialty, and no one ever gets seriously hurt... we have an elite team of tough hardcore spies, each with their own specialty, who go on covert missions and engage in high action bullet-flying bloody battles. I'm OK with that, and I enjoyed the first episode.However, the next couple episodes seemed to play the same formula. I hope they can develop characters more and become more imaginative and original with the "formula" and story lines.

This is truly awful, from the stupid multi screen shots, lazy writing, annoying music overlay, rapid bullet point dialogue with no substance leading to flash points in the action where it seems the editor has missed large chunks of the show out.Should have been great, just had a terrible writing team, director, producer, supporting actors... well actually everything!Take out "the blacklist" part of your name as you are not worthy. 1 bonus.... don't have to put up with Megan Boons character constantly going on about her baby every 2 seconds.

Not bad but not exceptional. At least not yet. I saw two episodes. There is potential if the writers fill in the plot holes. Like the instantaneous travel to far off places. The availability of floor plans for any structure in the world. Remotely connecting to and manipulating things that really have no connectivity.There is a similarity to the old Mission Impossible TV series in that the solutions are multi-level but without the clever twists so far.The action was fast paced on the two episodes. Everything will need to be more believable to raise this above all the other boring action series.The tone, pacing and writing are completely different from the Blacklist so other than the characters they have nothing in common.
