Make sure to turn on your televisions or set your DVRs for 10 p.m. tonight as NBC drama The Blacklist debuts on NBC.

The new series stars James Spader as an FBI most-wanted criminal who turns himself in and offers his help up to the Bureau, but will only speak with agent Elizabeth Keen (Megan Boone).

Back in March, crews for the television show were spotted in downtown Pleasantville, where they filmed Keen's husband speaking on the phone for the show's pilot episode, which airs tonight.

A Castleton Avenue dance studio also had scenes shot inside its walls.

Last week across the river, Pearl River residents spotted Boone shooting a later episode of the series.

NBC has a clip of the series' opening scene on its website(unfortunately, no sign of Pleasantville yet!).

Let us know what you think of the pilot!

*This article previously stated the dane studio used in the pilot is located on Marble Avenue. It has been corrected.
