Here is whyThe Blacklistfinale is the perfect ending for Raymond Reddington.
And here was an example in the real world of just such a person.
What if you take an infamous criminal and make him loveable?
This is one of the greatest successes ofThe Blacklist.
By all standards, Raymond Reddington is evil.
A series finale photo release even highlights Reds similarity to the famous opening sequence ofThe Walking Dead.
Its Dembe who characterizes Raymond Reddington best in a powerfully emotional monologue that serves as Reds eulogy.
Red has raged against the dying of the light.
Who is Red in the End?
The series finale, coupled with Gees comment, firms up the Redarina theory.
But this is not the only hint that Red has female roots.
In fact, some of the most celebrated and well known around-the-world flights have been done by female pilots.
Also, early in the finale, Agent Cooper states that Red is Agnes grandparent.
Its important to recognize that Harold didnt say grandfatherhe said grandparent.
There is no escape, only postponement of the inevitable.
But would our loveable Red want to put that on Ressler?
The pokey bull is a miracle then.
In Spain, horned cattle are also somewhat gender-ambiguous unless close inspection is possible.
Cows and bulls bred for bullfighting are both horned and trained for attack regardless of gender.
All 10 seasons of The Blacklist are now streaming onNetflix.
