Gender: Female Age: 23 Elle: I've seen the first season, but I didn't start watching until after she was gone, so I wouldn't call myself a fan of hers, though I don't dislike her. Though I'm glad she left so that we could get Emily instead. JJ: Loved her to pieces. She was one of the most well-rounded female characters of any television show ever. She was a professional, outstanding at her job, had the deadliest aim on the team, and could perfectly juggle family life with her career. Some female characters on other shows are written as either all-work-all-the-time, or have pushed their careers aside to focus on family. JJ represented a perfect balance. Garcia: I like her. She's sweet and funny. Prentiss: Love this woman! Kick-ass, flawless BAMF. She has no trouble holding her own in her male-dominated career, and for that I look up to her so, so much. It PAINS me that they are giving her character the shove-off. Seaver: I can not like this woman. It is ridiculous that she would be allowed on this elite team, she has no personality, and she adds nothing to the family. I can not suspend my disbelief enough to think that they could possibly allow this recruit onto the FBI's most elite team. Haley: ... It's complicated, haha. I wasn't fond of her when she divorced Hotch, but though I didn't agree with her, I could understand where she was coming from. Her death scene had me in tears.
Great post! Can I ask in what awesome class you get to write a paper on Criminal Minds?
