The Blacklist is one of 100 shows I 've been wanting to watch, but put off because it would take so long to catch up. I'm too lazy to be a good couch potato.
I watched season's 1-6 in about a week. My husband was home for a few and liked it too and so we started over and are at the end of season 5 again. There are very few shows that I really enjoy watching and this is one of them. There is another series that I watch on Hulu called Treadstone. It's like the Bourne movies. I thought it'd be cheesy, but it's pretty good. I also like Bob's Burgers, Disenchantment (it took several episodes to like this one because of my affinity for Futurama), Futurama, and The Masked Singer ( :wave: CrazyCatLady @CrazyCatLady). I used to watch all the murders on ID, but I had to stop that so I could sleep at night.

ive heard of the blacklist, never watched it. I'll have to congratulate you as it means you have a life on friday evenings to never hear of or watch that show.
:ROFL: Nope, no life. I'm here turking most of the time. And you should totally watch it!

Yes it is an amazing series, so well written, draws you in from the start for sure.
I know right?!

You mean amazon has learned from the brokerages the power of the short term loan so they will get to keep your earnings up to 7 days to make money on short term loans until they transfer your earnings to your bank account.

The Blacklist is one of those shows that keeps being recommended, and I keep seeing it pop up on Netflix. I should bite the bullet and try it. It's so hard to get into new shows. I'm one of those weirdos that rewatches the same ten shows. I have a terrible memory, so they're like 50% new again on rewatch.

Morning. I don't think they will get much interest at only 97 cents a day per worker. :wink:

A few years ago, I was trying to decide if I wanted an Echo or not (I wanted to use it with security cameras) and I was searching through the Q&As and thought this summed up my whole Amazon experience.

Q: Can I order Amazon from this?
A: Yes - you can spend your entire paycheck on Amazon. That's what this device is for.

The Blacklist is one of those shows that keeps being recommended, and I keep seeing it pop up on Netflix. I should bite the bullet and try it. It's so hard to get into new shows. I'm one of those weirdos that rewatches the same ten shows. I have a terrible memory, so they're like 50% new again on rewatch.
That's how it started with me. I'm addicted now.

Happy Birthday Doom Kitten @Doom Kitten !!!!!
