'The Walking Dead' Mid-Season Finale Brings The Governor and Michonne Together Again - 'Atlantis': A Fun Filled Fantasy - 'The Blacklist' is Raymond “Daddy Dearest?”



The Blacklist is a new series on NBC. It main character is Raymond 'Red' Reddington  (James Spader) , international criminal mastermind, who has seemingly surrender himself to the FBI after decades if eluding them and seek out a young female profiler named Elizabeth "Liz" Keen (Megan Boone). On the surface, Raymond appears to want to help the FBI catch other noticeable FBI eluders. However, he will only work with Liz. 

Although it appear strange for Raymond to request that he be allow to work with only Liz at first. It has become clear that Raymond murdering her adopted father was not simply a gesture of mercy. There are strong hints suggesting that Liz is Raymond's daughter.

Therefore there is no question as to why only Liz. Raymond  has closer a relationship with Liz  than he wants known., and he wants to protect her from those who wish to harm him as well.  He sees his deal with the FBI as a to stay a step of those who are hunting him. He wants to eliminate them before they can harm him. Only one question demands an answer. Is Raymond the one behind the attack on Tom Keen (Ryan Eggold). Does he want to protect Liz from her husband.

Suspicions about Tom are still running high with viewers , and Raymond only adds fuel to those suspicions  each time he attempts to plant doubt in Liz  mind about who and what Tom might really be.
 Is Tom a spy or a special government agent sent into Liz life with the task of capturing Raymond? Right now the FBI know what Raymond has done, they just do have enough evident to send him to prison. And in last Monday episode , it is certain that Raymond’s criminal past is catching up to him.
In classic form, James Spader brings the dubious and very dangerous Raymond Reddington to life in a way that is reminiscence of Hannibal Lester. He is cultural, charming, rich, well connected, and straightforward about what he will and will not do. He is all that any girl would want in a suitor or a father, if only he was not so deadly. He is also very protective of Liz. As their relationship grows stronger, one can only wonder if Raymond will be Liz’s salvation or the cause of her utter destruction. 

The Blacklist just about to concluded its first season and with luck will return next year. It is certainly thriller series to watch. The series airs every Monday night at 10 on NBC.

How often do you get to watch Hercules (Mark Addy) as a portly braggart of himself? With his all
his good deeds being accidents risen by embellishments to superhuman proportions. What about a Pythagoras (Robert Emms), who is still working out his theory with triangles to the point of annoying everyone (much has not changed over the centuries in that regard). Better yet, a 21st century Jason (Jack Donnelly) ripped from his timeline and dimension to a world where dragons, evil kings, and sorcery reign over the land.

Well, you can find them and many more in the BBC America newest series Atlantis, which aired on Saturday nights at 9. It is a fun and lighthearted series, which makes it a great balance for all the drama and supernatural series on the air.

The mid-season finale The Walking Dead airs tonight and things are not looking any better for Rick (Andrew Lincoln) and his small band of survivors. They just got over a flu that was killing their people, and in the last two episodes, viewers saw that the Governor (David Morrissey) is back, and that he is more dangerous than before. His has taken responsibility of a young woman and her daughter. They remind him of his dead wife and daughter, and this new bond has increase his desires to protect his pseudo-family to the point of killing Martinez (Jose Pablo Cantillo) and all those in his new camp who oppose his leadership. Survival of the fitted is the only rule that apply to the Governor’s ideology. Moreover, old grudges die slowly, and like a wounded and hunger wolf he has now into Rick hunting ground. Will the Governor and Michonne (Danai Gurira) come together in a deadly embrace?

P. S. The Walking Dead Webisodes: The Oath is running online and this one bring up the ugly fears of being buried alive. However, The Oath  takes that fear one step further and that is of being thought dead and waking up in a locked room with a sh-t load of hunger zombies. Super scary. Will Paul survive?
