Andre Leite da Silva Vito started his rise to power in 1917 and his reign lasted until 1945. His sons later assumed power and expanded the family’s power in the underworld. Hannibal Lecter was simply a killer and cannibal. He had no friends or allies. The joker? His backstory and overall character has had so many changes and deaths that he doesn’t qualify. He’s got no true origin, and no large power base to speak of. His sole purpose is to cause havoc and chaos wherever he goes. Money is an afterthought to him. So, as I said before. Red and his global connections could wipe these three off the planet without a second thought. Think about the evil characters that have been shown already. My favorite: the Stewmaker. Perfect guy to neatly and easily dispose of these guys.
Wooooow lol ive spent years trying to figure why i love this guy. And i just realized its cuz i loved house. They’re both such amazing characters completed by great actors. Thank you.
There has never been and will never be a series actor as good as James Spader. And I say that as a person who has seen more series than most of the people on this planet.
Then he is both the hunter & the hunted. That means..... He is Moby Dick, who is passing himself as Ahab. Which, judging by his criminal background- becomes a legit example of his position.
This is not a terribly imposing looking guy--- he just radiates power, competence and latent ruthlessness. It's a different character and a different vibe, but Spader's performance reminds me of how Anthony Hopkins was able to make Hannibal Lecter intensely intimidating with nothing but his voice and manner.
“And finally, most importantly? I speak only with Elizabeth keen.” Yeah we are going to have to make an exception on that rule for season 9. Gawd that’s going to be awful.
So you were like: "Ah gosh darn it, forgot to move the cursor away and to turn off danish subtitles, but fuck it, I already spent 1 MB of hard drive space to store this 23 pixel video, no reason to redo it, CZcams here you come!"
Do u kno frm S1 to date 2020 i never get tired of this serie. Its soo fun, eye catching, n most of all keeps u guessing who's bad who's not, who's right, who's wrong. Thank u BL team!
Red Reddington deserves to be in the same league of iconic male drama anti hero characters as Gregory House, Tony Soprano, Dexter Morgan, Vic Mackey, Don Draper, Walter White, and Andy Sipowicz. James Spader never winning an Emmy for this role is insane!
My two favorite scenes are in the first season. And my third is in the second season. 1. The opening scene of the entire show when he is sitting on the bench before he goes into the FBI headquarters then he talking to his butler. Then he steps into the headquarters and introduces himself and get on his knees with his hands above his head before they even show up. 2. My second favorite scene is when he's at a person's house getting ready to have stroganoff. Then he locks the wife in the closet threatens to shoot her if she's not quiet. Then goes to interrogate the husband, shoots him in the leg. and excuses himself tells the wife what a lovely dinner. 3. and my third is when he's trying to find a leak in his organization gives a speech about Loyalty and then kills the guy.
It’s called The Blacklist. That sounds exciting. That’s why we’re all here, of course. My wish list. A list I’ve been cultivating for over twenty years. Politicians, mobsters, hackers, spies. Ressler: We have our own list. Red: Agent Ressler, please. We all know your Top Ten is little more than a publicity campaign. It’s a popularity contest at best. I’m talking about the criminals who matter. The ones you can’t find because you don’t even know they exist. Zamani was a small fish. I’m Ahab. And if you want the whales on my list, you have to play by my rules. I never sleep in the same location for more than two nights in a row. I want a fully encrypted 8-millimeter tag embedded in my neck not that garbage from AlphaChip you stuck in my shoulder. I want my own security I’ve compiled a list of five acceptable applicants. Pick two. Whatever I tell you falls under an immunity package that I negotiate myself. And finally, most importantly, I speak only with Elizabeth Keen.
Thank god I came to the blacklist late (someone gave me the first series) I couldn't have coped with just watching it once a week!! Hence the binge watching of 7 series. 😳
I really wish he is one the main villains in one of the movies Mat Reeves, Batman trilogy. Maybe Ra's Al Ghul. James Spader is just pure..... A character of depth. He could be able to pull off what Joker did in the Dark Knight as Ra's
@@seneca1932 The Hebrew etymology is not relevant. Reddington makes several references to the Herman Melville novel: small fish (minor criminals), whales (big criminals) and Ahab (the whale hunter).
Weirdly enough I slept thru the first two episodes and never seen this clip then I binged watched like 7 or 8 seasons. The last episode that was made during the pandemic is actually the best episode.
im rewatching the show and on episode one when red said to lizzy " of course you dont believe me criminals lie....everything about me is a lie" then a few episodes down the line red told lizzy " i have never lied to you" IT JUST MAKES SO MUCH SENSE NOW
I was over the moon when i found out there were 4 more episodes of this series before season ends....Lizabeth is about to be the next Reddington! And hell hath no fury like an angry woman coming after you!!
I could watch an entire episode of just him monologuing
I could
Here, here 🙋🏽♂️
I am rewatching it... on season 7
Yesssss
i would love that
No criminal in movies or tv makes you want to root for them like you would root for Red. A true badass.
Heisenberg might have something to say bout this statement

Mike Cotto youre a cultured man.
@@mikecotto1167 Well said, sir!
I love it when someone asks Reddington: What do you want?, and then Reddington tells some random story of what he wants
My entire life is less interesting than even one of his stories...
@@darss10 Ouch.
And he always has some funny unusual name in his stories 🤣
Cat story i guess
Oh yeah, this one: czcams.com/video/Y1OA5e4JjSE/video.html
I would like enough money to have James Spader read me stories.
Aye, invite me over every story!
I'm sleeping over haba
Goodnight, Darby Hite
Listen to his reading of Dean Koontz's STRANGE HIGHWAYS.
His voice may be intense at times but him reading an entire book was sleep-inducing...
Lol damn I’m embarrassed to say...me too
My favorite quote is when Harold Cooper is bitching at Red for killing people, and Reddington is like, "I'm not perfect."
Oliver Queen omg yes. He is like "You kill three people" and Red is like "I'm not perfect". Fabulous scene.
eeeeey u watch arrow tooo
Logan Browning mine too lmao
My favourite is from "The Harem" I think : -My sincerest condolencies -Who died? -You did! You can't get more badass than that
Mines when he said just because u got bumped up to the first row of the choir doesn't mean u can compose a sympony
Not many shows that are still as interesting as the blacklist even after 7 seasons...
Pity it seems to have lost it's way these days.
@Arcturus Blake lmao
It’s gotten a bit too political for me
For me the biggest problem in the black list is that it has so many plot holes! This annoys me too much
@@brunoniccoli1546 thats the point of the show.
This show would have ended long time ago but people still watching it because of the phenomenal James Spader
And the writing
@@03PaK by the way , he is a part of the writing members in the serie
Honestly, I would have stopped watching it if it was proven that Reddington was his dad coz it was so cliche. But nope, so here I am
@@blackclover4375 was who’s dad
It did not end, a new season came out this yead and also one season last year
James Spader always has the right answers he should be in the hall of fame of talking smuck to face just like Dr. House
Hugh Laurie & James Spader my favorites
Wooooow lol ive spent years trying to figure why i love this guy. And i just realized its cuz i loved house. They’re both such amazing characters completed by great actors. Thank you.
GoodMusicFeedsMySoul imagine Hugh Laurie as Holmes and Spader as Moriarty.
@@Byrnzi360 Hugh doesn't have the personality to play Sherlock, though. He'd have to be Mycroft, and RDJ as Sherlock
@@AlyssMa7rin I respectfully disagree. House is already most of the way to Holmes personality wise and skill set wise.
Don't mistake my kindness for weakness, the Beast in me is asleep, not dead - Reddington
James Spader is such a good actor and he owns this part for ever~!!!
I can't see anyone else as Red! The casting was perfect!
And with this, we started on a 7 year long journey that has brought us to now.
Yes, well worth it
I stopped after three seasons, the constant question if red is Liz father just annoyed the bejesus out of me
@@mrmushin1 then you didnt get the show.
@@eric-jt4ij No, I love the show, but I find the plot holes and unanswered questions very annoying.
@@eric-jt4ij I get it..........a vehicle for ageing, unimaginative writers with long term contracts.
“Would you like the whale metaphor or the sexual metaphor?”
-Oh god please, whale metaphor.
+When two whales are having sex...
- O.o
He’s talking about the book: Name is: Moby Dick.
Author: Herman Melville.
'aha, I remember one time, I was eating at a restaurant in Kuala Lumpar, and encountered,..etc' every story red tells.
Episode?
It's Kuala Lumpur, but I digress 🤣
The scene that made me hooked with the show!
After 24, The Blacklist is easily my favourite tv show ever. Series 7 has been brilliant so far!
How do I watch season 7?
Bauerly08 Fortnite you can watch it ons 123movies.com
@@blakebauerly8076 It is also on netflix
Reddington taught me to work so hard that people cant afford to lose you
I love this show and I love Raymond Reddington. Spader just drives the role home
"zamani was a small fish , i am Ahab" damn , that's one way to set the tone for what's coming
This intro alone sucked me into the show. James Spader is such a talented actor
This man is the greatest actor to have ever existed
And quite possibly the greatest character ever!
That voice. It draws you in.
There has never been and will never be a series actor as good as James Spader. And I say that as a person who has seen more series than most of the people on this planet.
I love this scene
Episode ??
In episode 5x13 he says: "I'm Moby Dick." He should make up his mind about who he is...
He is popeye the sailor man
we all know he is George Murphy, Senior VP at Fine and Clean
Then he is both the hunter & the hunted. That means.....
He is Moby Dick, who is passing himself as Ahab.
Which, judging by his criminal background- becomes a legit example of his position.
gosh I could rewatch the blacklist over and over again and never get bored
This is not a terribly imposing looking guy--- he just radiates power, competence and latent ruthlessness.
It's a different character and a different vibe, but Spader's performance reminds me of how Anthony Hopkins was able to make Hannibal Lecter intensely intimidating with nothing but his voice and manner.
Gonna have to disagree. When he stares blankly in silence, he is terrifying.
He embodies such interesting characters
Years later and this still gives me chills.
You will not believe it but im rewatching it 2nd time without skipping any second and im on season 2 😂😂😂
You're same as me!
And me 🥰
that shall be me too
He’s really the only reason I still watch the show
Love this series so much that I’ve started back at season 1 to rewatch all seasons, again.
Me too ❤
Doing the same thing ❤
At first you start and finish out of curiosity but when you start again, my friend, you are taking life lessons out of it.
My favorite show right now
“And finally, most importantly? I speak only with Elizabeth keen.”
Yeah we are going to have to make an exception on that rule for season 9. Gawd that’s going to be awful.
Bro....😔
That hurts bro..
Well she did say, she was done playing that role because she wanted to do other roles
Im still watching this series right now.. an it still amazing.. james spader is the best
With knowledge comes great power, and with great power comes great responsibility
Great character…GREAT ACTOR!
Authority and expression in speech & demand! Wow, James Spader, delivers the scene and the character in the optimum!
The 1st episode that started it all!
#IAMAHAB
Tell me if u get it
"This garden just wreaks of something... Biblical"
"Who are you??"
"😈 I'm the snake in the grass"
Elizabeth Kane. That character should have been written out of the show years ago.
Who is Elizabeth Kane?? No such character is on this show.
"and finally
most importanly
I speak only..."
to Elizabeth Keen...anyone else noticed the poetry?
So you were like: "Ah gosh darn it, forgot to move the cursor away and to turn off danish subtitles, but fuck it, I already spent 1 MB of hard drive space to store this 23 pixel video, no reason to redo it, CZcams here you come!"
Do u kno frm S1 to date 2020 i never get tired of this serie. Its soo fun, eye catching, n most of all keeps u guessing who's bad who's not, who's right, who's wrong.
Thank u BL team!
a great piece of art
Spader's totally handsome and his voice drives me wild! Ultron vibes as well!
Red Reddington deserves to be in the same league of iconic male drama anti hero characters as Gregory House, Tony Soprano, Dexter Morgan, Vic Mackey, Don Draper, Walter White, and Andy Sipowicz. James Spader never winning an Emmy for this role is insane!

Love this show
Spader would be a perfect voice-over for Unsolved Mysteries
Ah the good old days when all we wanted was to listen to Raymond monolog. ❤
I like the mouse in the middle of the screen, really pulls out the thums down in the video 😊
Certainly one of the best scenes of the show.
Raymond Reddington: He is the Show
James Spader has the best voice for these types of roles.
It’s called The Blacklist. That sounds exciting. That’s why we’re all here, of course. My wish list. A list I’ve been cultivating for over twenty years. Politicians, mobsters, hackers, spies.

Hornbein lol messed up the first sentence
Thank you for providing the English subtitles for the deaf for this scene.
Always someone with too much time on their hands.
Boston Legal was easily the best show ever! Spader and Shatner was freaking tv platinum!
I’m a criminal. Criminals are notorious liars. Everything about me is a lie.
Thank god I came to the blacklist late (someone gave me the first series) I couldn't have coped with just watching it once a week!! Hence the binge watching of 7 series. 😳
This is exactly me
This guy has such a great voice and smooth delivery. Marvel should hire him to voice a CGI robot killing machine
I really wish he is one the main villains in one of the movies Mat Reeves, Batman trilogy. Maybe Ra's Al Ghul. James Spader is just pure..... A character of depth. He could be able to pull off what Joker did in the Dark Knight as Ra's
by now, you figure he's got to be getting sore carrying the series all by himself but we thank him for it because it's been a fun ride
Love this👏
I’m Ahab. Meaning; “uncle “, from Hebrew; meaning “brother “; meaning “father”.
"Ahab" is also a Moby-Dick reference. So the double meaning here is phenomenal.
@Ilan Shavit if you haven’t, watch the show. It’s very relevant.

Goosebumps....!
I've only seen a couple episodes of this show. I think its astounding.
It is hard to believe this is the same actor doling out ice cream in a Seinfeld episode, and the stretched neck sweater episode.
I've said it before I'll say it again: this man's voice alone could turn me. it really could
im rewatching the show and on episode one when red said to lizzy " of course you dont believe me criminals lie....everything about me is a lie"
then a few episodes down the line red told lizzy " i have never lied to you" IT JUST MAKES SO MUCH SENSE NOW
I got chills down my spine James Spader is quite possibly the best actor around.
“And finally most importantly, I speak only with Elizabeth Keen” that gave me cHILLS
The voice of ULTRON! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Even when he was younger, be sounded the same
Production company: We need a title. Any ideas, gentlemen?
Lead writer: 0:23
FAVORITE MASTERMIND CRIMINAL EVER!!
Honestly my favourite scene is of him in the first episode when he tells about zamani for the first time in the box...
Ha! Yes!!
"Were you wrong?
We were wrong.
"Yes. It's not the first time in familiar territory."
Bwahahaha!! The *SHADE.*
Dude is the modern day Godfather
Man is a badass with words and action.
Love Spader ❤️
Finally, a perfect series....
Don’t watch it in HD. Keep that extra layer of drama and mystery alive.
He is awesome. How he could hold the room.
I hope this show will continue till Redington gets old,I love to watch spader...
On netflix, I think. This guy was great on Boston Legal. Let's see
U know when i watched the age of ultron i realized that it was same actor of voice
This really is the best scene ever
I love red so much ❤️
Thank you my friend 🌹✋
Sad to see how far this once beautiful show has fallen.
Few actors can deliver lines in such a way that you don't really care what they are saying...you just like hearing them talk.
I love him. He makes the show
I love James so much!!!🧡
I love this guy.
Most underrated!
I love this
S1: I speak only with Elizabeth Keen
S7: Anyone but Keen, please!!
James Spader has the most awesome delivery.
I was over the moon when i found out there were 4 more episodes of this series before season ends....Lizabeth is about to be the next Reddington! And hell hath no fury like an angry woman coming after you!!
This comment did not age well...
god i miss this kind of background music and atmospheric feeling unlike the current version of the show
Ooofffdah! Awesomeness
