For more suspense and mystery for Raymond Reddington and his FBI partners, the Blacklist season 7 has returned to NBC. NBC revived The Blacklist for season 7, adding another series of episodes from its production company, Sony Pictures Television.

The show featuring James Spader as the crooked concierge Raymond Reddington and Megan Boone as his often good, occasionallyne'er do well safe, FBI agent Elizabeth Keene was a success with viewers from the very beginning, so the renewal news wasn't a yeah.

In fact, The Blacklist season 7 was already in the cards since Sony and NBC worked out a two-season deal back in May of 2018, according to THR, but the news of the renewal came just as the ink dried on contracts with Boone and fellow original cast members, Diego Klatenhoff (Ressler) and Harry Lennix (Cooper). Although Spader's contract expires at the end of the seventh season, this is not a confirmation that the series is ending in 2020.

The Blacklist season 7 returned to NBC on October 4, 2019 in its now regular Friday night in the 8/7c time slot. The next episode is entitled "Les Fleurs du Mal," and it will air on October 18, 2019. Watch the promo video:
