well, I think the finale is aptly named since CBS is treating the cast like an expendable commodity and not with the due respect they deserve. So it looks like the cliffhanger will not be going out with a bang but a quiet with everyone's future hanging on the whim of a budget. I guess it's a case of art imitating life to reflect on the current economic conditions. At this moment TG still does not have a contract so I hope this is not his last episode.

As a finale, it was a bit of a dud but a nice shout-out to Andy Swan. Yep, the title is reflective to how CBS also treats their actors like the kidnapped kids... to be bought, used, abused, and cast off like yesterday's garbage. Thanks a lot CBS for picking up season 7 of CM with still no contract for TG. What a slap in the face!!! Not enough Reid in this one cuz so much time was spent on the other agents and the unsubs. It was too easy a cheat to have a link to all the bars and the place they were holding the kids be all under one name. Ya think a clever crook wouldn't have a trail that easy to follow. What was the power that little girl have over those big brawny men??? And where did she hide that gun when she was only wearing underwear???????? She must have had one big-a$$ panties!! What also pissed me off was that Seaver, the wet-behind- the- ears cadet rolls her eyes and scorns Reid when he gets on his fact-spouting roll!!! She becomes the replacement pretty blonde who disses the nerdy Reid which is getting old. If Reid is going for late night Indian food, I hope he brings that antacid if he still has a stomach problem.

I thought it was a so-so episode. I missed a few minutes of it as my cat decided to cough up a fur ball and my crappy old vcr decided to stop recording while I went to clean it up. I missed most of what happened at the coroner's and whatever happened before that. I really liked the actress who played Andi Swan and thought the episode was a nice tribute to Andy. I was kind of hoping for a "In Memory Of Andy Swan" during the guest star credits or closing credits though. With all those swat team members being present during the raid I thought it was pretty stupid of Morgan to be alone where the prison cells were. So I was kind of pleased to see that he got the crap beaten out of him. I loved that Reid teased him near the end. So they open the show with a meeting about budget cuts and Hotch warning everybody that they will be approached about taking other positions in the FBI but end the episode with J.J saying she's coming back? Maybe J.J knew that Suspect Behaviour was cancelled so no need for the red team, or whatever it was called. 4 agents salaries the FBI will no longer have to pay. I know that the budget cuts scenario was due to the fact that TG and SM had not yet signed a new contract so that would give the writers an easy out next season if need be but I'm tired of all the behind the scenes drama and also for this drama to make its way to the screen. So Hotch it is your intention the be here next season? TG go and sign the bloody contract! And CBS you suck!

Sorry if the last part of my previous post sounded grumpy. It guess it sounded grumpy because I actually was grumpy after a night of hardly any sleep. But I must say I'm so tired of this stupidity that CBS created by making changes to a top rated tv show based on a spin off that hadn't even started filming yet. I'm also tired of hearing how TG really wants to come back for season 7 but still has no contract after all this time. Just my opinion but if he really wants to come back then just sign the contract, especially if the rumour mill is true and that CBS and TG are not that far apart with the negotiations. Did anybody see in this episode a scene where Reid's hair is wet? Someone on twitter asked the CM hair dresser about it and she just said that you had to be there to understand. I don't remember Reid having wet hair. Perhaps I'll watch again later to see what scene it is. http://twitter.com/#!/lindadeandrea |

Hmm.. I went to the twitter link but did not see the post about Reid's hair being wet... What date was it posted? It does look a little damp. Since it seems it was near the beginning of the episode perhaps Reid had taken a shower before going to work or something. His face wasn't sweaty.. Although maybe he had hair product of some kind.... I honestly don't remember very much about the episode. I didn't bother to download it to watch again. I liked Andi Swan and thought she had good chemistry with Hotch. The undercover agent looked a bit like Erica Messer to me.. Wish I had comparison pictures. I thought the story was ok, but there really wasn't much in the way of profiling from what I remember. It wasn't bad until they showed the FBI agent in captivity yelling for help. Something about that just didn't seem right to me. Acting like that might get someone killed. Then the twist of the Julie (or whatever the hell her name was) chick being the unsub in charge was just a wtf moment. It made no sense. I guess Ms. Messer thought it would be a cool surprise but I found it lame and nonsensical. At least the actresses were decent. Another WTF moment was that Reid didn't go on the raid with the team. I know I should be used to this by now, but why does Seaver get to go and Reid is missing? I really get the feeling Ms. Messer doesn't know what to do with Reid and doesn't know how to write for him. She also doesn't seem to know how to write for Hotch.. And she makes Morgan behave out of character (angry and unprofessional). The scene with Kevin and Garcia wouldn't have been cute except that the whole giving up technology thing made no sense and I just kept getting the feeling that the whole thing was a weak way of getting to the line about buying the farm... It just didn't work for me. Morgan punching the guy out after he was captured was stupid. I did like Reid mentioning Indian food at least.. But it still didn't make up for the lack of umph for the episode. It was just so anticlimactic. When they had JJ at the end a part of me was cheering but then when she said she decided to come back I was like "wait, what?" Since when does she have a choice? If she'd had a choice in the first place wouldn't she have come back at the first available opportunity? I can honestly say that was by far the weakest season finale ending. As much as the season 5 ender left me cold (bc it dragged on too long for my tastes, at least it had more impact. This wasn't the worst episode, but it certainly wasn't the best. I'm still worried about what the next season has in store. |
