Red Returns

Red, Lizzie, Ressler and crew returned last night on the season 2 premiere of The Blacklist.  It would appear we're going a bit deeper this season into Red's past but also, the show itself is going darker.  The episode begins with regular Reddington fun mixed with some Hellfire missiles then goes on to reveal the Blacklister for the week, Lord Baltimore.  Originally, I had thought the show wasn't going to continue the Berlin plot until later on but we learn quickly that Berlin has hired Lord Baltimore to track down Red....or is it Red that he's initially after?  

During the episode, we get a glance into Reddington's past and a bit of a reveal which I won't spoil with this post.  One of the guest stars for the episode is played by Krysten Ritter which Breaking Bad fans will remember as Jesse's girlfriend and she plays quite the character with a personality disorder I hadn't even heard of until last nights episode.  Another treat during the thrilling hour was Elizabeth Keen.  She isn't with Tom anymore and the character is better for it.  She was tougher last night and Megan Boone really got a chance to shine as a focused FBI agent not having to worry about Tom Bond.  This episode did not disappoint and it gave me just enough to keep me wanting more without letting too many secrets out.  I can't wait for next week to see where the road to Berlin takes us next because this week it brought us down a dark twisty road that didn't end well for some.  

Let me know what y'all thought of the season premiere :)
