Trevor June 2, 2017 Share June 2, 2017 If someone has already posted this, I apologize. I just signed up here, after discovering that IMDB has, apparently, dropped its discussion boards, and I haven't yet figure out how to navigate in this forum to look for other posts on this subject. But since about halfway through the second season, all of the episode titles have been palindromes (for those that don't know what that means, it's a word or phrase that, if read backwards, letter by letter, is the same as the original). Does anyone know what the story behind that is? Also, many of the earlier episodes have really strange titles, that seem to have nothing to do with the content of their respective episodes. I'm wondering if they are anagrams of something more meaningful. Anyone have any thoughts on that? Link to comment
Trini June 2, 2017 Share June 2, 2017 Yes, the episode titles for Season 1 and early Season 2 are anagrams. In Season 1, put together they spelled out messages. The later part of Season 2 they switched to using palindromes. The anagrams have been discussed in the Spoiler thread. Link to comment

Yeah, IMDB had to drop their discussion boards because the "young boys" only wanted to talk about T's & A's. They were, let's say, "Not Ready For Primetime" and it became pretty nasty. As for the Anagrams, there were some sites that had special sections that decoded the titles for each "Blindspot" episode. p.s. The best way to navigate the forums is to customize your home page to the shows you want to follow and just bookmark your home page. Edited June 2, 2017 by Jacks-Son Added the postscript.

paigow November 20, 2017 Share November 20, 2017 (edited) So far, each title [including 2 not yet aired] has only one pair of letters that appear twice. Back to the Grind........T Enemy Bag of Tricks...E Upside Down Craft.....D Gunplay Ricochet........C This Profound Legacy.O Adoring Suspect............S Anyone got a sea urchin??? Ignoring spaces, paired letters are separated by a single letter. TOT [tot] ENE [Ene] DED [deD] COC [coc] OFO [ofo] SUS [Sus] Did they already do some kind of ASCII / Hex / GPS code in that scavenger hunt? Since anagrams are eliminated, I am guessing that there must be some formula based on numeric values derived from key characters.... Edited November 20, 2017 by paigow 2 Link to comment

TOT [tot] ENE [Ene] DED [deD] COC [coc] OFO [ofo] SUS [Sus] That's well noticed. Now, how about reading down the middle "One of u..." - it's early after only 6 letters, and common ones at that, but if that strategy continues to produce real words, maybe... Anyway, I'm not about to put any money on it. :) Edited November 28, 2017 by surreysmum Apparently I don't know my numbers yet. Back to kindergarten for me! 3 Link to comment

paigow December 16, 2017 Share December 16, 2017 Next episode deviates from the pattern: City Folks Under Wraps The next key letter should be the W, but the pair of S may be a "game changer".... Link to comment

blackwing January 19, 2018 Share January 19, 2018 One of us will get killed? I hope it's Reade. He is useless, and I find it appalling that with his background and history that he was approved as Assistant Director. I know that was Hirsch, but after she was disgraced, all of her appointments should have been reviewed. Link to comment
paigow January 22, 2018 Share January 22, 2018 If 20 episodes make up this season, GET KILLED is possible. However, if 22 or 23 episodes were ordered, then something else is afoot.... Link to comment
MissLucas January 22, 2018 Share January 22, 2018 Ha! One of us will get a spin-off is a match for 22 episodes (or 23 if the hyphen counts). I'm just saying. Link to comment

misstwpherecool May 26, 2018 Share May 26, 2018 (edited) Don't know where to put this actually but to me I find striking similarities between Blindspot S3 in particular and the BBCs Killing Eve. If not gimmick in style. City/location in big bold letters, music. international flavor and instead of a female lead , Roman is the Blindspot's eve, an assassin looking for a home and a 'connection' with those pursuing them. The style or look this year reminds too/so much of Killing Eve. Eh, watch too much tv I guess Edited May 26, 2018 by misstwpherecool Link to comment
