Wow, four days later and no activity. Did the move hurt it that much or are we just tiring if the show?

not every single episode of every popular show will have activity. Sometimes people here don't get to them right away or simply don't have anything compelling to say. As more days pass, we just move on to the next episode.

I've liked the last couple of episodes, but The Blacklist had a terrible stretch of episodes to open the season. It wouldn't surprise me if some have dropped it.

I'm still watching, but not even the Super Bowl episodes and this new episode have entertained me. They have been a chore to get through. The whole Lizzy/fire backstory is boring.
I need blacklisters that do some atrocious stuff, like the breeding farm/adoption agency episode (Cyprus Agency)

I am officially in "fast forward through the episode" mode. The Blacklist-er of the week is achingly dull, and I'm only still in for the tidbits related to the larger arc - though to be honest at this point I find myself not caring what Red's end game/plan is.
I still love Spader's performance, which for the longest time was enough to keep me engaged, but lately even that doesn't seem enough.

Yeah, unfortunately for NBC this isn't a CSI-style show that can last on of-the-week episodes for long. They should fully serialize it for the 3rd season, but that hurts syndication resale.

I'm still watching, but I really do wish this would have been a one or two season show. Really starting to get old.
