First ep of the new year! ...and we almost missed it. Dx

This is the discussion post for Episode 7x11 - "True Genius". Watch out for SPOILERS in the comments

I hadn't heard that about Matthew. Paget Brewster was also trained as a method actor - may well-known actors are, but not all of them choose to "immerse themselves" in the character, staying in character between takes and so on. Paget did talk once about "Demonology" being a rough episode for her because of Emily's distressed emotional state throughout. I'm surprised to hear that abou MGG, though, considering some of his antics on-set, like his "Unauthorized Documentary" series.

Re Matthew, if I were TPTB I think I'd be more concerned that his original ambition was to be a director, and he's probably looking to get back to that full-time at some point. Letting him direct the occasional episode has probably been a good decision. Does anyone know if he has directed/is going to direct any episodes this season?

Sorry if this post is a little rambling - my heads a tad disjointed this morning.
