Criminal Minds -- DIS Official Thread 1 (SPOILERS!)

[Belle0101]

I don't blame her for breaking up with him. I think he strung her along long enough. He was crushed and really bitter for a long time afterwards. Hello, you can't just keep stringing your girlfriend along. I really liked her too.

Maybe she left it open because she knows or hopes they'll go to her place to look for her once they realize she's missing and find the file.

Where did she leave her cat, Sergio?

The first thing I said when she went into her apartment was "Where's Sergio?!"

I did too. But, then I figured she wouldn't leave him there for Doyle to torture and kill and leave for her to find.

Not only did the hire a blonde replacement, they had to make her a dumb blonde character?

Sorry I have been MIA Imzadi, but here I am! Haven't read many back pages, so forgive me if I repeat anything anyone else has already said.

I CANNOT stand that blonde girl!!! I want JJ back! Why did that do that??

My theory is that Emily will be killed off and that's why JJ comes back for her last episode. That may explain why she is teary-eyed and wearing black. Now, if someone has already come up with this theory, my apologies. Also, if anyone has posted something ruling out killing off Prentiss, I apoligize for that, as well. This Ian Doyle storyline certainly seems like it could lead up to something bad for Emily.
Does anyone else not care for this storyline? The only reoccuring theme I liked was Foyett. I still get sad when I see little Jack and Hotch without Haley.

Well, I DID warn ya!

Hope no one minds me bumping these pics up. And if you do, get over it!

I loves me some Shemar

Glad to have you back!

Most of us, who've posted at least, pretty much feel the same as as you said. There have been a few who chimed in that they never felt one way or another about J.J., so her leaving hasn't really bothered them. I hope others aren't feeling intimidated about posting their opinions.

But Seaver is such a dull person. If they wanted to "refresh" the show (which I don't feel is needed since we lost Elle and Gideon) they should have gone a different way, looks wise. Basically, all they are doing is reminding us that JJ is gone. I mean, there is a resemblance and besides that, the girl cannot act!

I miss JJ and I will miss Emily. Why do they have to mess with a proven formula?
Anyway, it's 1:40 am and I have CM:SB on DVR to watch! I haven't decided what I think about it yet. I skipped last weeks episode on purpose. As soon as I read it was about removing eyeballs, I decided to pass. I can handle just about anything graphic, but when it comes to something to do with eyeballs, I can't deal.
I think it's going to take me a while to not expect Janene Garafalo to say something snarky all the time. What an odd casting choice. And I agree with the few other posts I have read on here, it's weird seeing our girl Garcia work with another team. I'm not complaining, I love her. It will just take awhile to get used to.

WAIT!!! THIS week's CM: SB episode was the removing eyeballs episode. All the reviews who said last week's episode would be the eyeball episode were wrong. It turned out to be tonight's episode.

As far as I could tell, you won't be missing much. I loosely watched. It didn't really hold my attention. Then I got annoyed because I could have been watching Top Chef, instead. (I'm missing a plug on my TV to watch one show and tape another at the same time.) Eventually, 3/4 of the way through, I went to get something to eat. I assumed they got the unsub. I didn't really care to finish the episode.

OMG! I am SO glad I checked the Dis one last time before I shut my laptop down! Thank you so much!!
Darn, I hate I missed last weeks! Again, thank you SOSOOOOOSOO much for telling me in time!!!

I actually thought that LAST weeks episode was pretty good. It kept my interest. Oddly, my son is napping so I just started watching this week's episode when I saw this. Knowing that it is about removing eyeballs, I might miss it!

I'm really annoyed with the writing on this episode. There is NO WAY, based on Emily's character so far, that she would let her team chase Doyle blind. She knows how dangerous he is, and she knows that their lack of knowledge could get them killed. Yes, he threatened them, but they're in direct danger now anyway. At least give them the information they need to try to keep themselves safe! Or if she's too cowardly to do that, get out of the way!

Not sure I'm going to watch the next episode. I'll just come on here to find out what happened!

 

[Tink9721]

I didn't watch last week's CM: SB because I was too dang tired I watched part of this week's but it never really caught my attention(I was actually watching a CM re-run on ION instead). They already did the eyeball thing on CM before. Three episodes into SB and they're already using similar unsubs

 

[DenMig]

Criminal Minds is my favorite tv show. I haven't posted on this thread because I DVR the show and watch them later. I"m all caught up now. I miss J.J......had a huge tv crush thing going on there.........and I"m bummed Prentiss is leaving. I"m thinking one possibility is she will kill Doyle and Doyle will kill her also..................someone posted they don't like this storyline,but I actually have liked it, suspense is killing me kind of feeling.

 

[BLTLDZ]

Hi all!!

Is tonight a repeat?? If so, anyone know which episode??
Want to make sure I DVR it....Thanks!!

 

[Imzadi]

Hi all!!

Yes, it is a REPEAT TONIGHT.

The episode is called "Safe Haven." It is the one where people pick up a teenage hitchhiker on the side of a road, up in remote Iowa.


Anyway, I'll post some new pics later, to console everyone that tonight is a repeat.

 

[BLTLDZ]

Oh...I've actually never seen this one...Was it a good one??

And yes, please post some eye candy!

 

[Imzadi]

Yes, it was a good episode. I remember we discussed whether people would actually do the same situation. It turns out to be one of those "What Not to Do" situations to add onto the ever growing list of ways to stay safe. I wonder if anyone has ever compiled a full list for Wikipedia?

As for eyecandy, it seems pretty light this week. Joe Mantegna also says they are starting to film episode 21 out of the 24 scheduled. So only about 4 more weeks of Twitter picks before they are done for the season. I'm not sure where I'll be scrounging up eye candy pics after that. We still have about a good two months left of new episodes.

Here's what I found for this week:

From Kirsten (Garcia's) Twitter.

From makeup person @annafleiner:

Are we supposed to read her photo ID?

Thomas Gibson's feet with patterned socks - - - - - - - > Hotch's FBI regulation feet:

- >

Today is Matthew Gray Gubler's Birthday!

Looking kind of like the Stay Puff marshmallow man.

In MMG's exact words from his Twitter an hour ago!
"Thank you all for the AVALANCHE of love on my birthday!!
I will be spending it at work with these two dear friends."

Who is that man behind the mask?

I also was surprised when someone finally named that Doyle guy as the Unsub, that Emily didn't finally speak up. Once they knew who he was, it's not like they weren't going to go after him, no matter what her connection to him was. He committed horrible crimes. Emily running away wasn't going to change that.

However, her speaking up would have given the team more key insights into him, which they need. Her being involved makes it personal for Doyle to take down the members of the team. She left them in greater jeopardy by not letting them know he would specifically go after them.
