LOL! Uh, happy to oblige, I guess. I'm kinda bitter on the ladies front, too, but was thinking maybe it'll be okay. Different circumstances, sure, but the show made it through character losses before, and did so beautifully. I took forever to warm up to Prentiss because I missed Elle so much. I've always trusted these writers to rise to any challenge. Maybe they're tired? I don't know. At least Reid's still pretty, right? :)

I loved Elle, too, but I didn't mind Prentiss coming in. And I was ecstatic over Gideon leaving and Rossi coming in. I've been dealing with JJ's leaving because I thought the writers handled writing her out really well. But that just makes me more nervous about how Prentiss will leave. But yeah, in the past, the writers have been able to carry me through a lot...but this season just... yeah, it feels tired.

Reid will always be pretty. *G*

I actually like the way Hotch and Garcia are struggling to fill JJ's role. I mean they're a man down, no one was happy about it and they haven't forgotten all about it. It's continuity and character development for Garcia.

I mean i wasn't so much in love with Garcia before. I mean she ahs killer style and awesome one-liners, but i like this.

But yeah, i can has more Prentiss before she leaves, kthanx?

Don't get me wrong, I always loved Garcia, and I like that they're struggling to fill JJ's role, but I'm ready for them to put that struggle in the background and look at the other characters. I mean, if nothing else, how does Em feel being the only woman in the field these days? How is Reid doing without his "big sis" JJ around to keep an eye on him? JJ's leaving affected the rest of the team too.

And yes, please, more of Prentiss. :)
