Scared my roommate with how loud I yelled when I saw Odo.

stream?

I miss Gideon so much right now

[gsyh.livejournal.com]

Jason Gideon was the only one of them who was in the army right? His parallel trauma was why "Distress" was so much more moving to me than "Dorado Falls".


Though hey, for the BAU connection, there is Rossi's paternal concern for young civil servants. Then there is JJ, didn't her sister commit suicide?

Drawing a parallel to Reid? Smart, isolated... not aggressive, though. Although I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't have much respect for authority when he was young. Not much in the way of positive role models.

I had a mandatory dorm meeting and missed the first 17 minutes, and thus, have no idea what is going on.

Why are they all scratching?

[tryxkittie.livejournal.com]

cant watch ep. is it good?

[klutzy-girl.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

[izumi-masaki.livejournal.com]

It's a bit 'meh'/neutral. Nothing extraordinary.

[gsyh.livejournal.com]

O M G!

Also, wow, Strauss is hot.

[nwjarvis.livejournal.com]

Rossi is a former Marine.

BTW, since when does Morgan call her "Strauss" to her face? Seems a trifle disrespectful for an Assistant Director/Deputy Director or whatever her title is...?

:(

lol ikr

[doverz.livejournal.com]

I really like this episode. Not really team focused, but I like it.

[izumi-masaki.livejournal.com]

Holy shit, Strauss has been drinking?!

[diemme.livejournal.com]

Where has this come from?

re: Reid and authority figures

[gsyh.livejournal.com]

I was never a genius, d'awwwwwww, but I was the bookish kid who got bullied for it. I didn't have /faith/ in the power of authority figures to protect me, but I respected them, like, dude, my peers picked on me, but the teachers were nice to me, and it was because of the teachers that are nice to me that I was soooo bookish. When I was a kid, I figure out that authority figures were not remotely omnipotent - and I didn't blame them for it.

Reid certainly doesn't have problems with authority figures, he's comfortable that the other members of his team are alphas, but he ain't ("Compromising Positions").







Holy crap, Strauss is drinking, this is Law and Order all over again!

[doverz.livejournal.com]

I like it. More case focused than team focused, although we just had a nice Morgan/Hotch moment where Morgan called Hotch out on his trust issues, but a good storyline IMO.

[doverz.livejournal.com]

OMG, putting boys in a dryer. So fucking horrible.

[izumi-masaki.livejournal.com]

I lied. It's taken a right turn. It got much better.

[diemme.livejournal.com]

The energy is low and draggy in this episode as well as the last one. I don't like it.

[doverz.livejournal.com]

The last one was the tornado one right???

I definitely like this one a whole lot better.
