Criminal Minds stuff.

Ok, now that I've gotten THAT out of the way...

I just finished watching the Season 3 opener.

I have to say...I'm impressed, intrigued, curious, depressed, completely fucked in the head, and my stomach's in knots.

Which is...somewhat par for the course for this tv show, but not quite to this extent.

I don't want to post spoilers.

However, I WILL say that, if what we think is going to happen does happen? I don't know if I'll be able to continue watching.

And that Of Innocence & Empathy cuts off after The Evolution of Frank. I'm not sure if I can handle writing fic post-Doubt.

Edit: There ARE spoilers in the comments. Read at your own risk.

A.) my only hope for this is that they'll explore the Hotch and Morgan dynamic a bit more with Gideon gone. otherwise, I know exactly what you mean.

B.) I think he might be one of those characters written for the purpose of audiences loving to hate them. if so, I'm going to throw blunt objects at the writers.

C.) at least I'm not the only one who thought he didn't fit, appearance-wise. I guess we'll just have to wait (until the fifth episode, dammit).

D.) exactly. they seem to be focused on breaking up the team, here, and I'm not liking that direction. of course, I DEFINITELY want to see more of the Reid storyline.

(This will teach me to preview before posting. Maybe.)

A) I totally agree with you on that one. Before I got whammied into the In Search of Peace and its other triplets, I was planning on writing a Hotch/Morgan series...who knows if I'll ever get to write it now.::whine::

There's not enough Hotch/Morgan in the world.

B) I hate characters you love to hate. There's really no point to them unless they're a recurring villain. Plus, didn't they already go that route with Prentiss?

C) Can I just say YUCK?! Yuck. Thanks. I saw the new cast photo. Um. No thanks.

D) Divide the team, the show gets conquered. I'm not really watching for the cases, I'm watching for the team. Don't take the team away! I'm sort of iffy on the Reid/drug storyline. I want to see it ended, yes, but I really really really want them to go after the post-Profiler, Profiled possibilities. Yeesh, you know Morgan's going to be called as a witness!

no, there is definitely not enough Hotch/Morgan.

as Garcia would say...word.
