Creative differences??

WTF?????

That's Hollywood speak for "Nobody's talking about the real reasons". *G*

Goddammit, Mandy. You get me all addicted to a show and then up and leave on me? Now I HAVE to keep watching, with or without you.

Hmm. Not actually too broken up about it. It's more of an ensemble show than a one-man act anyway, and Jason really wasn't all that much of a lynchpin. Truth be told, Hotch is way more important in the plot scheme of things.

I'm not too sad about it, either. I am worried about a few things.
1. The scrips aren't going to be that great because of the great deal of stress Mandy put on the poor writers.
2. I/no one will like the new charater.
3. Well now they won't ever play the episode Doubt. :(

So I guess we don't know if the character is going to take Gideons place, or just be a normal profiler. I hope Hotch takes over.

Hotch was, in fact, the head of the BAU, not Gideon. So that wouldn't even be an issue.

[sandersidle.livejournal.com]

Oh then what was Gideon?

[npkedit.livejournal.com]

Not entirely sure. Clearly he was management level, but I thought he was something on the order of chief profiler...or something like that.

[sandersidle.livejournal.com]

Oh okay, thanks.

I think the show will be fine without Patinkin, I just think it's shitty that it had to happen this way. He has a rep for being difficult to work with and there were rumors that he and Gibson didn't get along so yeah, not really surprised that he left.

This shoe has a good ensemble cast and can survive on its own without Mandy Patinkin. Call me evil, but I'm actually kind of happy to hear about this, could allow for more character development in terms of Hotch, and more screen time for Thomas Gibson!
