The wait is over and Blindspotis returning for it’s final bow.
The season opener Blindspot Season 5 Episode 1, “I Came to Sleigh,” takes place a couple months after the events of the Season 4 finale, which left the team on the run after being framed for Project Helios.
NBC has been playing it pretty close to the vest as to whay Season 5 will look like, but we know that Jane is alive and picking up the pieces following the explosion, and Rich Dotcom need rescuing after being held in a CIA black site.
Check out the photos and promo video below for a preview!
