The hit drama scored the post-Superbowl slot for 2015, and writers are planning a two-part episode that will rival last year's "Anslo Garrick" cliffhanger.
"It's going to be the most incredible Blacklist episode because they're working on it now and they are formulating the whole season around it," said Megan Boone (Liz) at the Monte Carlo Television Festival, according to Digital Spy (via Megan Boone Online). "We're gearing up to make a feature film, essentially, of The Blacklist that will be two parts. The first part will air right after the Superbowl, and the second part will air in our new US time slot, [which is] 9 p.m. [ET] on Thursdays."

While it is unknown what Blacklister will take center stage for the highly anticipated episodes, the character should be sensational enough that viewers will remember to tune in on Thursdays instead of Mondays after Feb. 1.
"It's sort of this transition to a new place on the network in the United States and so they're going to really amp it up for that one," Boone continued. "I think it's going to be like "Anslo Garret" on speed or something."
