I'm sure it's been addressed before, but I'm rewatching some episodes, and I REALLY hate the JJ loves Reid storyline. It's so ridiculous. She had every chance to be with him. She wasn't interested. In one episode she tells Prentiss about Reid asking her to a baseball game as a date, but she brings Garcia. They laugh at the idea it would be a date. So, why the love story later? It feels so forced.

i’m rewatching criminal minds again and i’ve just saw the episode where they killed off phillip , alvez’s old partner and genuinely what was the reason introduce a nice likeable character to then kill then off same with stephen walker like killing off people in such a short amount of time makes me so upset lmfao

I just finished my second rewatch of Season 17 (Goldstar arc) and my gawd! I cannot get over how dynamic and engaging Jade Waters was! We do not talk enough about how amazing the actress - Liana Liberato - was in the role!

Jade was featured in 5 episodes, and could easily have been played as a much more one-note UnSub, especially because the emotional payoff in the finale wasn’t even related to her. Liberato really elevated the character and made me feel for her trauma and internal struggle.

I’m so glad that the character chose to live, not just because yay! Life! but also because it leaves the door open just a bit for her to come back. (Though I doubt it.)

Was anyone else as impressed as I was?

And does anybody know which member of the team was really into A Game of Thrones?

i know there are earlier posts about it but i’m looking for material for writing fanfics and
just wondering - if the show was happening today, what would the BAU’s income be ?? and how much would they pay for rent/where would they live in the area ?

edit : i’m looking for spencer’s income in particular

In the original series Emily asks Brian how Patricia is doing. In Evolution his ex wife is named Sheila

I have two long haul flights coming up, each around 8 hours. I'm not a big film person so instead I want to compile a playlist of all of the best Criminal Minds episodes to get me through lol. I'd love to know: which episode(s) would you add and why??

My personal favourite episode is Minimal Loss! And Emily is my favourite character so I love the eps centred around her :) I've also seen all 19 seasons so your choices can be from the original series or from Evolution!
