SPOILER SPOILER SPOILERPANTS.
We will learn a terrifying secret from Reid's childhood that explains why he's so attracted to serial killers. According to Matthew Gray Gubler: "I just read an episode that has an incredibly dark history for Reid. He had a terrible thing that happened in his childhood that comes out, causing delayed nightmares. It explains why he's so attracted to serial killers. The last page, I was like, it all makes sense. It's super dark...like cable-style dark. I'm sure the fans will hate it, and I'll love it."
According to Gubler, the secrets of Reid's childhood are revealed in part because of a Beverly Hills, 90210 alum. "They're everywhere these days!" Gubler told me. "We have an episode where Luke Perry plays a psychotic polygamist cult leader. I'm always getting held hostage by teen idols—first James Van Der Beek was a guest star and held Reid hostage, and this time it's Luke Perry. I actually saw Scott Baio out front, and I swear he looked at me. I want George Michael to hold me hostage in season eight." Hee. I love this guy. And suffice to say, Perry's character sets off Reid's nightmares, which lead him back into his very scary past.- E!online

And I want an episode where BSB or NSync hold someone hostage.

But if he is held by George Michael that is alright than.
I am just a bit in shame, I loved scott baio ones upon a lifetime ago.
:).
Thanks for the spoiler. But my patience is running out thanks to it!

Date: Aug. 13th, 2008 07:49 am (UTC)I'm wondering if it has anything to do with Reid's nightmares when they first came up (The baby in the circle that he can't get to?)

I very muchly disagree ;) I adore episodes where they delve into Reid's dark past. The fact that Gubler himself said it was "cable-style dark" just has me even more excited! We've gotten so many snippets of his childhood throughout the course of the show, and it's great that they're becoming even more daring with what they're including. Plus... these eps tend to give the Gube endless opportunities to express just how utterly adorable and brilliant he can be :D
Thank you so much for posting this ♥

I just hope we get something equally for some of the other characters too (hoping for finally some background on Hotch and Emily here)
"psychotic polygamist cult leader" sounds good though.
I want George Michael to hold me hostage in season eight."
Oh, MGG, I love your brain. ^^

Hey, Reid said it himself: he's never known a normal day in his life.
And I'm already driving myself crazy with possible ideas for what it could be (polygamy leader + terrible thing = attraction to serial killers??). Of course, I'll have to stop that soon, or I'll never make it to September...Or worse, I'll build it up so much in my head that it can only be a letdown when the ep finally airs :(
Still, consider this fangirl exstatic!!
P.S. - I adore MGG!!
