NBC is closing ‘The Blacklist’ after ten years on the air

    NEW YORK (AP) — The NBC series “The Blacklist” is coming to an end.

    NBC said Wednesday that the James Spader drama will end after the upcoming season, its 10th on the air. It returns for its final run of episodes on February 26.

    Spader has played the character of Raymond Reddington, an FBI informant of old criminal associates. This past season, Reddington faces “unparalleled danger” as some of those he identified seek revenge, NBC said.

    The show’s 200th episode, a milestone in the often-volatile television world, will air on March 19.

    Diego Klattenhoff, Hisham Tawfiq, Anya Banerjee and Harry Lennix are other regulars on “The Blacklist”.

    The final episode will air sometime this year. An NBC spokesperson said it’s not immediately clear when that will be.
