NBC has renewed "The Blacklist" for a fifth season, TVGuide.com has confirmed. The drama starring Megan Boone and James Spader will air its fourth season finale on May 18.

"The Blacklist" is the network's second most-watched drama and draws nearly 10 million viewers in its Thursdays at 10 p.m. timeslot, against ABC's formidable TGIT.

However, there's still no word on whether spin-off "The Blacklist: Redemption", which focuses on Ryan Eggold's character, Tom, and aired its freshman season earlier this year, will be back for a second season.
