The long wait for Blindspot's final season is nearly over.
NBC announced Friday that the fifth season of the thriller will launch Thursday, April 30 at 10/9c.
The following week, it will settle into the 9/8c, and it will remain there for the duration of its 13-episode run.
The Thursday timeslot is somewhat surprising, especially when you consider that the show was pulled from its Friday night slot during Season 4 for several weeks.
But the series is probably being used on Thursdays because NBC doesn't exactly have a lot of scripted shows to air.
The ongoing Coronavirus pandemic has found the network making the decision to bring many shows, including the Chicago trifecta, Svu, and Good Girls to a close earlier because the shows were shutdown.
Blindspot Season 4 averaged 2.8 million viewers and a 0.5 rating in the demo, but by the time the show returns, many will have forgotten about it.
