According to Deadline, NBC has reportedly negotiated a license fee reduction, which means the drama is profitable for the network. With an established fanbase and consistent viewings, NBC can lock in a strong international sales and a Netflix SVOD deal.
4) The Bigger Puzzle!
In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, creator Martin Gero teased Jane’s tattoos are par a larger puzzle, “Yes, she has enough tattoos for nine or 10 years. … Her legs are just for the spinoff.”

In the previous installment, we discovered Bill Nye, The Science Guy, is Patterson (Ashley Johnson)’s father! Starting a family together, Jane (Alexander) and Kurt Weller (Stapleton) adopted Avery (Kristina Reyes) as their own daughter. And Roman (Luke Mitchell) intends to kill them all! What’s going to happen in the next two episodes?!?
2) Jeller Lives!?!
Though she’s starting a family of her own with Kurt, Jane (Alexander) is determined to put an end to Roman (Luke Mitchell). But will Jane be able to put him him down? Or will she choke at the last minute? Will Roman succeed in hurting her family and loved ones, including Reade (Rob Brown), Tasha (Audrey Esparza), and Rich Dotcom (Ennis Esmer)?
1) The Season 3 Finale!
According to Entertainment Weekly, Gero reveals South Africa will play a huge role in the finale, “South Africa has always been such an incredibly important part of the Blindspot mythology. It was an amazing privilege to film this final episode in Cape Town where we…. well, I don’t want to spoil it. You should just watch.”
The Season 3 finale of Blindspot will air on May 18th, 2018.
