In you live in the US you can buy Criminal Minds on iTunes. Right now it is just Season Five, but it is there.

I will be buying/downloading it later today.

more spin-off casting news

[dysfunkshunell1.livejournal.com]

Just came across this article. I don't know how reputable a source they are but...

From the National Ledger

A WOMAN'S PLACE: With casting under way for the "Criminal Minds" spin-off, we've learned they've created an FBI director who is female -- which, as you surely know, has never happened in real life. This one is named Beth Griffith. She's in her 50s, impressive both in her handling of law enforcement and politics, and may become a recurring character on the show.

Strauss 2.0? Not to be a negative Nelly but I'm still not feeling the spin-off. I know some have raised the question of how the fandom could be so negative toward it, but other than being created by a show we already love, is any of what has been released really intriguing anyone?

I'm sure if there is a way of wow-ing this, the execs of CM should be fully capable but I personally would have much rather something already having occurred on an episode sparked a spin-off than being forced to create one. That's how this all seems to me: Forced. What say you?

If I was a criminal, I'd be... A serial killer. Hopefully smart enough to either not get caught or not get caught right away.

Just FYI I'm currently very flaily over Kirsten Vangsness and wouldn't mind more people on my flist to flail with.

Pure Mourning [FanFic]

[took-skye.livejournal.com]

Title: Pure Mourning
Author: Tooks
Pairing: Hotch/Prentiss
Rating: FRM
Summary: While working a case involving kids, Prentiss must help Hotch deal with nightmares that lead to traumatic childhood memories.
Notes: This is the fourth of what I'm calling my "Suffer the Children" series. It's slightly AU (in line with my Hotch's 5 Stages pieces) but has Season 5 spoilers!
