“look at you, with your eyes. your never giving up. your anger. your kindness. and one day, the memory of that will hurt so much that i won’t be able to breathe…”
My short answer would be “yes.”
But “Saving” is such a confusing word.
Elizabeth Keen needed to stay alive. She is the door to the untouchable world: the world of the so-called “Blacklisters”, a list contains of criminals, bad, evil people, as it had been mentioned on Season One, people even FBI did not know they existed. If the key to open that door is the brilliant James Spader is like Christmas came early to me.
She also needed to stay alive to prove she was not guilty of all charges.
Yes, Elizabeth Keen was a strong, smart, beautiful, skilled, able grown up woman, who could take care of herself. However, I don’t think she would survive a day, had she been alone and not receiving any help.
She was a fugitive, chased by FBI, CIA (probably), Homeland Security officers, Cabal (or is it written Kabal?), and god knows who else.It would be highly unlikely that she had managed to stay alive all by herself. She was after all, a normal human being.
Think about it. even Raymond Reddington - the most brilliant mind in the criminal had needed help and would continue doing so if he wanted to survive. He had ‘Bad-ass’ Dembe, Mr Kaplan and her chain-saw, a group (or two) soldier of fortune… you name it, he had it. In short word: helpers. And from time to time: saviors.
so yeah, Agent Keen needed saving.
I love that the writing in the series is kept as realistic as possible. And I love that the female characters in this series were written well and strong, and not always on the good site - either they were the slave handler, the abusive mothers, or the sly thief - matched to Red. When will Mrs. Reddington (Madeline Pratt - a.k.a the wonderful Jennifer Ehle) play again, I wonder. Then, we have Elizabeth Keen with all her goodness and flaws. And certainly, I do not need to mention Mr. Kaplan.and her chain-saw, do I?
Perhaps I have to say a little about my definition of well written, strong characters: they are not without flaws (or goodness). They make us want to know about their past. They make us understand why they had done it - or in a more general term, they have their reasons. They are made humane - and not some reflections of our imagination. Or as my writing teacher told me: they could exist.
Now about Agent Navabi… kinda wish she would be written better… or maybe it’s just me having difficulties to give her any attention, when I have to focus on between a very strong character of Ressler and the scene stealer of Aram.
From the beginning on, the writers of “The Blacklist” had never intended to make , Tom Keen or whatever his name was to be other than this chameleon sexy killing machine. It’s pretty obvious.
But only for a moment, let’s tease ourselves with a thought, he had been a normal ordinary school teacher. A devoted loving husband, who got tangled and dragged into the crazy world of his wife.
I am dying to know, how an ordinary person tried to help his beloved wife, who lived and led a dangerous, extraordinary life. How would he cope, what could he do? How would his daily gray life change - and in what ways?
Questions, so many questions. And no answer.
But it could have been a bit of fresh air into the boring predictable stories of the whole Tom Keen segment. An illegal underground fights - how cliche. Abusive relationship - dangerous and not healthy. Not to mention, the love and the redemption part - that is too fast and too easy.
SZCZEGÓŁY FABUŁY ORAZ PIERWSZE OFICJALNE FOTKI Z “AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON”
Jakiś czas temu, mając świadomość, iż nawał obowiązków służbowych skutecznia uniemożliwia mi regularne aktualizowanie bloga - co stało się naturalnie źródłem mojego wielkiego smutku i narastającej frustracji - postanowiłem sobie, że do “pisania”, jakkolwiek buńczucznie by to nie brzmiało, powrócę w momencie publikacji pierwszego teasera filmu “Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies”. Czyli, co warto nadmienić, lada dzień.
W ten sposób, zagryzając jednak przy tym zęby do tego stopnia, że aż wydawały się być bliskie pęknięcia, powstrzymałem się od pisania m.in. na temat postępów w pracach na planie siódmego epizodu “Star Wars”. Wierzcie mi na słowo; miałem poczucie, że ilekroć tylko w sieci pojawiała się jakaś ciekawa informacja, zdjęcie, zwiastun, bądź też po prostu miałem chęć podzielenia się z Wami wrażeniami z seansu - choćby “Ewolucji Planety Małp”, a pozostając wiernym swemu postanowieniu nie mogłem niczego z tym uczynić, część mojej duszy umierała. Kawałek po kawałaku.
Dobrze, nie ma co rozdzierać szat. Dość powiedzieć, że wraz z publikacją pierwszych, oficjalnych zdjęć z “Avengers: Age of Ultron” czara goryczy została przelana, a ja zdecydowałem się, niewiele przy tym myśląc, podzielić się nimi z Wami za pośrednictwem BlogBastera.
Jako że godzin wyjścia do pracy zbliża się nieuchronnie, pozwolę sobie tylko powiedzieć, że poziom mojej ekscytacji najnowszym filmowym przedsięwzięciem Marvela wzrósł, jakkolwiek mogłoby się to wydawać niemożliwe, jeszcze bardziej. Kto wie - może kinowa premiera “Guardians of the Galaxy” przyniesie nam ze sobą również debiut pierwszego teasera?
Jeśli zas chodzi o fabułę: potwierdzają się przypuszczenia, iż Ultron będzie zbuntowanym tworem Tony'ego Starka. Stworzony z myślą o przewodzeniu armii dronów walczących z bezprawiem (w chwilach, w których Avengersi oddają się zasłużonemu odpoczynkowi), obdarzony intelektem dorównującym swemu twórcy, znalazł odpowiedź na nurtujące go pytanie: jak zapewnić światu pokój?
Odpowiedź brzmi: unicestwić wroga numer 1; rasę ludzką.

One of the best shows of last season came out of nowhere really and quite frankly I am ok with that. James Spader as Red Reddington in NBC’sThe Blacklist is a ton of fun to watch and if you haven’t had a chance to check it out, Netflix is streaming all of Season 1 right now.
The new season is upon us and to get you in the mood, here is the trailer for tonight’s episode. I love that they have amped up the James Spader-ness of Red and I absolutely love that Red’s nemesis, Berlin, is played by one of my favourite actors Peter Stormare.
Check out the trailer below and if you haven’t started seen The Blacklist, you should really get on that.

To be clear… yes, I believe they’re gonna reveal woman from Paris an imposter. She’s a fake, not the real Katarina. And yes, her real name will be Tatiana Petrova.
They referred to her as Katarina Rostova because that’s who she became. No different than saying Raymond Reddington is Raymond Reddington because that’s who he became. Dom framed her in order to hand them a body for his daughter so he could protect Masha. He wouldn’t, even if he wanted to, hand them his daughter. She became Raymond before they framed this woman.
I think George on Facebook has your likely scenario. They’re bringing Laila and Ron back to do their imposter Katarina reveal. At some point, he realized he wasn’t talking to his daughter.
To be clear… yes, I believe “created” Raymond will be post-op Katarina.
Now here is a theory for Rederina and a pretty solid one I could see this happening
