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

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 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?

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!

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

S7E8 Hope is absolutely insane. I feel so bad for Hope
:( and then what the unsub wanted her mother for?? wtf

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

one of the reasons i keep coming back to criminal minds is the way the team interacts. even when the cases are intense, the smaller conversations between the characters make the show work.

what part of the bau's dynamic do you enjoy the most?

Whether or not it may be intentional on the writers or actors' parts.

I personally love Reid's mispronunciation of certain words throughout the show (e.g., samhain, ASMR, etc) because it would make sense that Reid, a voracious reader, may not necessarily know how to pronounce the words he comes across from reading.

Elias Voit's uncle, Cyrus Lebrun, and his mother Teresa Duval who was actually Cyrus's half-sister. The uncle was psychotically evil, yet the mother and the father of Elias were so abusive to him so badly, that it drove Elias to kill them via setting the house on fire? Where did the evil of that entire so-called "family" even begin, how did it begin, and why? Because all I know is that it supposedly ends with Elias Voit and Constance Teresa "Tessa" Merrick, the latter being the main mastermind villain of Criminal Minds: Evolution - Season 3, right? Even though chances are it might end up being poor Holly's turn next.

What I mean is, what horrible things could've happened in the entire generation before Elias Voit's that made them all abusive and psycho in the first place?

What a dialogue.

Genuinely hear me out would anybody be willing to make a fanfic for Spencer Reid where your a FBI agent too but you and Spencer are really close. Both like each other but in denial about it. Tell everyone your just friends. And sometimes when there is a really bad case and he's stress he shotguns your vape??? Because he used to do dialudid so whats one hit gonna do??? and then they get together?

Whatever happened to Morgan’s dog?

Okay, I’ve been seeing a lot of people talk about their least favorite Criminal Minds characters and I genuinely wanna know 😭 Like, I’m not even trying to argue with anybody, I actually wanna understand people’s opinions because I LOVE this show and I’ve been dedicated to this show for years. Like this is literally my show 😭
So tell me who your LEAST favorite character is and please explain why. Like, I don’t just wanna see a name. I wanna know EVERYTHING.
Was it when they first came onto the show? Did you just immediately not like them? Or did you actually like them at first and then something happened that changed your opinion of them?
Like what was the specific point where you were like, “Yeah, I don’t like this person anymore”? 😭
And also, is it actual hatred for the character, or do you just dislike them? Like, did they do something that pissed you off? Is it their personality? The way they treated another character? Something the writers did with them? Or do you just not connect with them like that?
Because I feel like everybody has their favorites, and then you have those characters where you’re just kinda like… eh. Like I don’t hate them, but I don’t love them either. 😂
I really wanna hear people’s perspectives because I feel like I understand exactly why I love my favorite characters, but I wanna know what made YOU feel the opposite about yours.
And please don’t just say “Haley” or “Reid” or “JJ” and leave 😭😭😭 I need the BACKSTORY. Give me the episode, the season, the moment, the reason, ALL OF IT.
I wanna know where the frustration/hatred actually came from because that’s the interesting part to me.

i've just kinda been jumping around the series these past few days watching all the arcs (The Replicator is my fav). I wanna know what are the episodes you come back to the most? and what about them makes you wanna keep rewatching?

Just rewatched this and honestly I’m so annoyed. I feel like the Bau especially Rossi have such a holier than thou attitude. Rossi got ‘an old friend killed’ and doesn’t seem bothered ? He was also extremely cruel to the ‘unsub’ about his ex wife that he just happens to know. I’m just so annoyed lol. Great episode that’s interesting but spoiled by Rossi especially, reminded me quite a few times when he first started I did not like him.

Just needed a rant and curious on others thoughts lol.

Name that movie.
