The Blacklist
Drop: Homeland (Showtime) - 9pm, Sundays
Pick Up: The Blacklist (NBC) - 10/9c - Mondays
Fans of
Homeland'
's first season were disappointed by the somewhat convoluted second outing last year. Between Brody's political career and Dana's love life, there was just too much going on. If you're looking for something a little more focused, try
The Blacklist this season. You get all of the undercover ops and thwarted terrorism plots, with the added bonus of James Spader chewing the scenery - in the best way - as a mastermind criminal. Coincidentally (or not?), you'll also see Mike from
Homeland on this new crime thriller.
