Maybe they are on, Eastcoast. It's a long list, so I might have missed them.

Here's another one I have:
Are there other bodies buried at Tansi Farms?

I added that one Tuxie. It is a long list but there are a lot of unanswered Q's! I had it on my other list on the old pc I have. I need to get the season list organized again I have on here.
I also added who buried the body and when. Oh, and who carved the K on the tree?

Awesome list, Eastcoast! Thanks for starting it!

You are welcome Iowawatcher. If you think of anything you want added just let me know.
I am in hopes that TPTB will see these loose ends and take care of them. These are questions they have raised in the show that fans want answered.

I think I got the seasons all updated.
I added the questions about the suitcase we had to season 5 because the suitcase was seen at the end of the last episode of season 4 and I felt like it has more to do with this season.

I can't believe I forgot to add this, but I thought it was already on the list:
The Madeleine Pratt, why not Florence, blood everywhere, Christmas, out of gas, walking in the snow story = is it true?
It seemed more likely that Diane Fowler was talking about this night because there is more evidence that the FBI was very aware of and involved in 'this night'. The way he tells the story is so compelling.
I cannot fit this story and his telling of it in with any theory that's been proposed so far.

Tatiana, I added that. That's a good one.
Another one:
Do the numbers associated with each blacklister have significance or are they random?
Offline
I added that for you Brittany.

I don't know if we had the Cabal 2017 plan on the list, but I was listening to an interview with Jon Bokenkamp and they answered it:
The CABAL was engaged in a global conspiracy to bring about the fall of the Soviet Union. The players agreed that, once the Soviet Union was dismantled, the world would enter a 25 year period of instability, allowing the group to
profit from the political and economic uncertainty that followed. Afterward, the world would return to a Cold War posture, with the two opposing super-powers restored.
As head of the Cabal, Alan Fitch intended to stick with the plan, which called for a series of events to begin in 2017 that would begin to move the world back to the intended Cold War posture. This was the “2017 Plan,” timed to be about 25 years after the fall of the Soviet Union, as agreed. The Director (Strathairn), however, was unhappy with the timeline. He believed that the world had become dangerously unstable and that we needed to accelerate the 2017 Plan and begin moving back to a Cold War posture immediately.
The Director did accelerate the 2017 Plan. At his direction, the CABAL began a series of “triggering” events intended to inflame tensions between the United States and Russia. As an example, Karakurt (the famed Russian operative) was dispatched to the United States to carry out the OREA bombing, which killed many CIA Agents. In an unexpected move, the Cabal decided to blame the attack on Liz, who they claimed was a Russian sleeper agent (the daughter of Katerina Rostova, a famed Russian spy). This made Liz a target and still fit nicely into their plan to inflame U.S./Russian relations.
With the death of the Director and the severe weakening of the Cabal, the 2017 Plan was never carried out to completion. The Cabal continues to exist (though less powerful), so its members may one day muster another attempt to return the world to the Cold War posture they feel is necessary for long-term global stability.

Tatiana, I added the question. Thank you for that.
I did hear that interview. It was really good. I think he should do thst more often on anything they don't plan to incorporate in the show.

I added another question because I was re-watching and wondered since Naomi said that Frank didn't know she had been married before does he know she has a daughter?
Offline
I added a few questions about Naomi. Let me know if there is anything you guys want added.

What's with all the books on architecture, specifically modern architecture. I just found a new one. The books just behind Red's head are on Le Corbusier and Alvar aalto. Carry on.
Offline
Tatiana, just stopping in for a minute, RL is driving me crazy!
They seam to be part of the theme to me along with Art. Even Dom had them. He had the same book of Great American Houses. I think that's what it was called. We had a very in depth discussion! I remember that. I figure if nothing else we all gained knowledge of the Case Study Houses and their locations. Lol
I don't get around on other boards that much so I do not know if they were discussed elsewhere. I would like to do that at some point since we have a long break.
Offline
Eastcoast - yes I remember our discussion on this board about modern architecture. I guess I was just surprised that yet again the props were interjecting this theme. Well, there at least consistent!
We all seemed to enjoy finding patterns and parallels so I too was thinking that would be a fun one to do during this break...

Someone else pointed this out a long time ago and I'm only getting around to listening to it (so thanks to the original poster). But someone on The Blacklist Exposed discussion board posted a reminder of this interview. The make up artist is interviewed and discusses his theories on transgender. He points out that Katarina has burn marks on her back in Requiem/Kaplan Concl. His name is Anthony Pepe. He's the one who points out that when Liz looks into the clock behind her on the shelf is a book about sex change surgery.
You could kind of take this as an answer to how Red got the burns on his back. Check this out around the 6 minute to 8 minute mark.

What was in the Rostova file?
Troy Heinritz from The Blacklist Exposed asserts that the Rostova file references Constantin Rostov and the seriousness of his illness. He says, "It's more serious than I thought" (or something like it). The context is important too, given the arc of that point in the season it makes sense it was about Constantine since he hired Scottie
