First episode I've seen in months...yeah this show needs to be over last year. It just gets more and more ridiculous. Sometimes I wonder what possesses talented actors to keep beating a dead horse...I feel like CM hired the idiots who wrote the last season of Dexter. Ick.

Bite your tongue, you're in a Criminal Minds community and there's no need to say that this show needs to be over.

I must say, I love the show. I love previous seasons and count it as one of my favorite series.

Are we not allowed to be critical of anything?

This post asked for discussion, it didn't say we are not allowed to speak our minds. I do realize this is the internet where disagreeing with someone is tantamount to murder (apparently). I can be a fan of the show and still think it needs to end its course. The further it goes on IMO the more it dissolves into something it shouldn't be. Writers run out of ideas, character development takes a dive into the most ridiculous (I mean the whole movie theater thing when Hotch was dying? That's just lazy writing). I can still love the show and love the characters. I am mature enough to be able to say that the thing I love needs to be over before it becomes the thing I can no longer stand.

Take Dexter, for example. A great show with good writing and excellent acting. Amazing character development. Even the most hardcore fans will tell you to just pretend the last season (or last three seasons) never happened. It's only because we are fans and care so much that we break it down and get critical---we want it to be the best it can be.

Man, I love my parents and my husband but even they hear every once in a while when they are being butts. But apparently I'm to just bite my tongue and speak only high praises. I think it is people such as yourself, _touched, that perhaps should bite their tongue and learn to accept opinions and critical interpretations from others that are not identical to your own.
