And I almost thought that I was the only one who noticed how pretty he is as a woman... I cannot take Twilight seriously, but, Jackson was amazing tonight. Him and Reid in rooms together almost gave me a complex...

You know, you're right about the Reid returning to his drug problem thing :/
Poor guy, puts his heart into cases like these *tear*
Let's think positive :D!

I finished watching this episode for the third time and I cannot stop flailing. This episode left me SPEECHLESS! I had never seen the actor for "Adam" before as I am not a fan of Twilight and had no idea he was in it. *lives in own little world*

It was GOOD!

I suspect there will be much Reid contemplation fic from me.

Yeah, they spoiled too much of the twist in the press release this time around. And a lot of the twists were a bit obvious, but I suspect it is more because we've seen them pull so many twists in the past that we're always suspicious lol.

I'm glad they did do the flashback/Tobias talk, though. I was worried they'd just ignore the similarities, or that at most we'd get a meaningful look from Reid or from one of the team in Reid's direction (wouldn't be the first time they'd bypassed potential for some previous storyline callbacks), so actually having the flashback and the discussion was a real treat.

Omg, I am not one of Reid's biggest fans but ITAWTC.

In that first interrogation scene with Reid and Adam and the camera alternating between their big puppy dog eyes... wow, I had to look away, it was too much to keep my eyes glued! lol

I will never look at the picture of Jackson on my phone the same ever again. But he did outstanding my mom came home late from work and she loves Twilight and I was like nope get out if I talk I'll spill it all, I can't shut up about it. I wanna know what reid will do, but I could tell that was Jackson at the beginning his chin gave it all away, ha.

I actually liked Golden Girls, but you're TOTALLY right: Designing Women was better. Like, wayyyyyy better. Why the hell don't people show it anymore?! *pouts*

Re: I'm quite the fan of capslock in case you couldn't tell...

[ohh-honeybee.livejournal.com]

Duuuude. My friends do the same thing! I don't understand! WTF is wrong with them?!?! *is puzzled* :O

[ohh-honeybee.livejournal.com]

It was kinda ridiculous, right? He was lookin' kinda pretty! ;P

Him and Reid in rooms together almost gave me a complex...

Almost? Hell, I've GOT one. Thanks, CM. Like I needed another complex. *headdesk*

[arianna-noel.livejournal.com]

i knew before it aired what was going to happen.
hahahahahha i misjudged the woman part until i saw her at the beginning

[jasperhale007.livejournal.com]

Well, and he has a distinct chin, seriously. It wasn't hard but he still made it awesome and CM's just awesome in genral.

[battleprincess.livejournal.com]

CM gave me a complex with the revelation episode. I kept having weird dreams that they killed my favorite character off of the show. And that Van der Beek was really a three headed dragon that would never die.

If Reid ever wants to make eyes like that at me, he really can. I will not protest... Why fight a good moment like that?... *facepalm*

Re: I'm quite the fan of capslock in case you couldn't tell...

[jasperhale007.livejournal.com]

He's just so, bleh. I just wanna throw him in a shower.

[ohh-honeybee.livejournal.com]

OMG that episode and I are SO not friends. I still can't watch the whole episode in one sitting. =[

Why fight a good moment like that?
GOOD POINT. If he made eyes like that at me I'd probably be arrested for sexual harassment or something equally wrong but totally worth it. ;P

Re: I'm quite the fan of capslock in case you couldn't tell...

[ohh-honeybee.livejournal.com]

EXACTLY. My friends are all "OMG I love the sexy bed-hair!" and I'm all "More like 'I haven't washed in two weeks' hair. No thank you."

[battleprincess.livejournal.com]

Groping. I'd probably go down for groping... And as long as I was questioned by someone on the team, I'd totally be cool with that. All the great things to do in one day or so, harass Reid, be questioned by Rossi, handcuffed by Morgan, and glared at by Hotch.

Not a bad way to fatten up your criminal record. Not at all. ;P

[a_blackpanther]

The movie is decent. It's like something you'd catch on the Hallmark channel on a sunday afternoon. But what is it with this book? Everybody and they boyfriend has read it.

I need to read it, because i just can't understand the hype.

Re: A comment unrelated to Twilight

[a_blackpanther]

Yes. Best quotes used in a while.

[battleprincess.livejournal.com]

Oooh... Considering that my record is squeaky clean I could probably walk away with no jail time. Bat my pretty eyes at someone and claim it was a momentary case of insanity induced by Reid looking at me like that.

[a_blackpanther]

Somehow i missed reading the press release for this episode. Or i only remembered "spring break killer", so i did not see that end coming. Well at least not form the very start.

[ohh-honeybee.livejournal.com]

SAME HERE. :P

Also? I love your icon. :D

[hilsongirl.livejournal.com]

Jason Alexander should stay away from this show. I didn't believe his performance on Masterpiece and his directing here was awful. I've never see this amazing cast act so badly before.

I love Jackson's "Amanda" though

[battleprincess.livejournal.com]

Thank you, I got it from glimmeringlight through a link on one of the LJ CM comms. Actually all of the icons I've used her besides the gangster cat icon, came from GL.

Criminal Minds next week is a rerun. Todd... I was glad to see her go the first time.

[cpolk.livejournal.com]

I wasn't happy with this episode either. I thought it lacked the qualities that make the show thoughtful in favor of sensationalism about four too many times.

the unsub was a very good actor, though.
