The Blacklist - Season 8 -

The core of Season 8 is the "war" between Red and Liz. After the events of the previous season, Liz finally sides with her mother, Katarina Rostova. When Red kills Katarina in front of her, the emotional bridge is permanently burned. This season is unique because it forces the audience to view Red not as a protective guardian, but as an obstacle to Liz’s autonomy. Liz’s descent into "darkness" is polarizing; she utilizes the very tactics Red taught her—manipulation, theft, and strategic alliances—to try and dismantle his empire. Narrative Milestones
