Plot Getting a Little Ridiculous
16 April 2016
I sense we're headed for the end of this show. The plot has gone "over the hump" where Elizabeth and Reddington were a "sweet and sour" mix with different motivations but the same goal.

Now it's turned from thriller/crime/spy flick to ridiculously staged shootouts where the good guys fight off dozens of heavily armed tactical bad guys using only a couple of pistols.

Becoming heavy on the "Chick Flick" angle with the "What a wonderful guy (Tom)" and the "You're like the father I never had (Harold)".

The show peaked with Elizabeth on the run, then caught, then tried and took the deal. Now there's nowhere for it to go but to this silly "Feel good" and "Shoot 'em up" nonsense.
