Hmmmmm, a down and out fighter in Philadelphia and unsubs! I think I'll dub this episode the "Rocky Horror Picture Show".
And what's with Hotch already getting a love interest!! Reid hasn't seen any action for 3 years(if you count cute flirting with the bartender)!!! :dry:
I still prefer Reid as an enigmatic loner but seriously, they're still playing him like the socially backward nerd! The past seven years has turned him into an compassionate and empathetic man with a great deal of insight. Of course, only in TVland would you have a nerd that looks like him and not be beating off hordes of women with a stick. Notthisagain

Did you see the episode yet? I missed it. My mother had cataract surgery today and I've been on eyedrop duty every hour and then I was spending time with my cat, Sara, who is dying of cancer. :-(
I completely forgot it was Wednesday.

Yeah I saw it and it was pretty much bleh from start to finish. That was what I was expecting so it was no disappointment for me. I'm not a fan of boxing and I have no interest in Hotch getting a love interest. Too bad they killed off Caroline, I liked her and Rossi. It was a pretty dull episode but I do admit to tearing up at the end. I wish Hotch had given the family a bit of privacy though.

Sorry about your Mom and kitty suceress! :(

Yep, like Mirri said, you didn't miss much in terms of what CM is suppose to be. Granted it had a lot of pathos but it was all about the fighter and his struggles. If I wanted to watch that, I would have watched the Rocky 1-4, the Champ, or the Fighter.
This case wasn't even a BAU case. Any beat cop would have been able to figure out what was going on and how to nab the guy. :dry: If the BAU had to work every case of someone going off the deep end after a crisis, they would be up to their neck in every single case in every single city. This one feels like another filler with no depth to the profiling and absolutely no suspense. I got very restless and bored since it was so predictable.
Hotch looked good in biker shorts and jogging clothes which was a nice change from the suits. But I'm not a Hotchette so ho-hum.
:unsure:

My mom is feeling better. The surgery went very well and she says she can see colors much better after the surgery. The kitty died earlier this evening. :-(

As nice as the writer seems to be on video and in chats, I really think she should be fired. Her writing does not fit with CM at all.
