It came down to the wire but NBC just picked up a 22-episode sixth season of "The Blacklist", from Sony Pictures TV.
"The Blacklist" was a massive hit when it debuted in 2013 behind "The Voice" on Monday. It took a hit when the network in Season 2 relocated it to shore up Thursday night, using a post-Super Bowl airing to give it a pop. While "The Blacklist" never came close to the ratings heights of its first season on Monday, it has been a relatively consistent ratings performer, boosted by solid DVR gains.
In its new Wednesday 8 PM slot this season, "The Blacklist" has averaged a 1.6 rating in 18-49 and 8.8 million viewers in L+7 to improve the time period by +19% in adults 18-49 vs. last year when recently renewed "Blindspot" aired there.
