In fairness, the actor who plays Megan Boone's husband in The Blacklist, Ryan Eggold, is also a terrible actor who, despite his lack of talent, managed to get cast in a spinoff series, The Blacklist: Redemption.

It sucks that most of the rest of the casts, including guest stars, of both of these shows are good actors, and these three talentless hacks diminish their work while taking parts away from much more deserving actors.

One thing the TV shows Person of Interest and The Blacklist have in common is the horrendously bad acting of the primary protagonists.

I understand how Jim Cavieziel got cast, as he'd carried a profitable, well-known movie, but who is Megan Boone? Nepo baby?

Anyway, they're terrible actors in these shows, and Caviezel is a terrible person.

10 Shows That Overstayed Their Welcome

Every show has a sell-by date. These ones ignored it completely, kept going, and made us watch the slow decline in real time. As a fan of most of these, it genuinely hurts to say this.

The Movie Junkie

Reddington (speaking business-like and with quiet authority): "If you really want her to talk, I should meet with her."

FBI guy (incredulous): "Every time you meet, someone ends up dead."

Reddington (in a conciliatory tone): "We've gotten off to a rocky start."

FBI chief (exasperated): "You've _killed_ three people!"

Reddington (still conciliatory, but also getting slightly impatient): "I am _not_ perfect."
