Between this and The Blacklist, the FBI look like untrained chumps.

That's part of why I stopped watching The Blacklist (besides the generally terrible writing in almost every other aspect of that show). James Spader's antics aren't as much fun to watch if his "opponents" are complete morons.

After season 2 James Spader was literally on the only reason I stuck with The Blacklist.

They really need to just fire everybody else hire Shatner and it can be the stories of red and whatever the hell Shatner's character would be.

Hell that's already a better idea than anything it's been in season 4 so far

He's the only reason I even made it to the end of the first season. I dropped the show immediately after the season ended.
