Okay, this has nothing whatsoever to do with the ep that I won't get to watch until tomorrow so I apologize for the OTness but I have to say that I <3 your icon except...WHERE IS DR. REID???????? :-(

Love the subject line. Morgan with a semi-automatic (automatic, hell if I know) will be so much better than two teams.

Well, Wayne Campbell, I'm sorry to tell you this, but you're going to be very disappointed.

Poor Reid can't play with the big boy toys :(

"Let's hop into our BAU time machine." Even Garcia's in on the whole Hotch = Time Lord.

Well this is already much better than last week's episode!

Mwuahahahaha, I love it!

I wonder how pissed Strauss is going to be about the SUV.

Bitchy Emily. I like it.

Emily. Love you!!

Poor Reid left out of the fire fight again. Hotch needs to give him more lessons.

[identity profile] cloudzrshibby.livejournal.com 2010-04-15 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
Pretty much everyone was badass in this ep. I liked it. Turned around from the slump? I think so.

Also, they remembered Hotch's ear problems. Thank you, writers, for remembering something.

SSA Rossi with fully-automatic weapons FTWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW.

\o/

I literally sang "Rossi's got a guuuuuuun."

Oh show... why? Called the profile as soon as the vic spoke Spanish, called the UNSUB by the end of the 1st act. Whoever wrote this had a serious case of the "liberal tells"... I thought I was watching L&O! ;P Maybe a more accurate term would be "political tells", but how many tv shows are written by conservatives...? Whatever. This was a pretty good episode, but still, as a person from the Texan border, with friends who are illegals? Kind of insulted that I was expected to sympathize with the coyotes, and to feel bad when that cartel boss got shot. Also sort of insulted that the only good, noble cop who ~cares~ about the plight of the immigrants was a sassy bronx latina, while all the southern white males were too stupid and bigoted to see they were working with a sociopath. Ugh... Maybe next episode won't make me crazy? I did like injury-consistency!Hotch, and denied!Reid made me "aww". Reid wants to play with the big boy guns! I think it's funny that he can't because every time he's fired a gun at someone in the show, he's hit. I think he's a better shot than Morgan, at this point. :)

I didn't get the impression we were suppose to feel sorry for the coyotes. Realize that they were not viable suspects, yes - but not to feel sorry for them. They weren't good suspects because stories of people getting killed in a particular area is not good for their business. Nor do I think we were suppose to feel sorry for drug lord who was killed. It was the deputy's death we were suppose to feel for. That and all the other immigrants that were buried in Boyd's backyard.

Regarding the other cops not noticing - that is something we see a lot in CM. Even cops can't always see the psychopathic killer right in front of them. And it was clear none of the other deputies really knew Boyd.

Oh HELLZ yeah, loads better than last week. Semi-predictable, but UnSub was friggen PSYCHO enough that it was still cool. And bonus points for awesome dialogue.

Only thing worrying me - all this talk about budget cuts at the beginning. Has there been any word yet on CM's status for next season, and if anybody's leaving the cast? I WILL BE HIGHLY DISPLEASED IF WE LOSE SOMEBODY COOL. Or somebody at all. *new to this fandom but already loves it so*

Joe Mantegna tweeted that they will definitely be filming the 6th season.

This episode rocked. :D
I love it.
Emily was so funny at the end.
this episode rocked.

[identity profile] rowena-dawson.livejournal.com 2010-04-15 02:42 am (UTC)(link)
Not bad. Much better than last week's episode.

Always have a laugh at my Reid...I couldn't even imagine him with fully-automatic weapons... Hahaha!

Emily had some good quips in there.

Overall, good stuff. :D

[identity profile] ragcat.livejournal.com 2010-04-15 02:49 am (UTC)(link)
I felt sorry for him, poor baby--not allowed to play with the grown-up toys... This was a good episode for me--more Reid, and some great lines.

Extremely predictable.

That's about the only thing I can think of to say.

I liked this episode. I mean I called the Unsub pretty quick but it was funny and I feel like we haven't had that in a while. Plus Bitchy!Emily made my night, my weekend, and my entire year.

[identity profile] annadelko.livejournal.com 2010-04-15 05:27 pm (UTC)(link)
TOTALLY AGREE. The Ending scene so awesome and Bitchy!Emily was THE BEST EVER ;D
