Season Premiere!

This is the discussion post for episode 5x01 "Faceless, Nameless". Watch out for SPOILERS in the comments.


I'd just like to remind everyone that for the next week at least everything pertaining to this ep is to be considered VERY spoilery and any posts related to it should come with big spoiler warnings and be put behind an lj-cut. The same goes for any info for the upcoming episodes.

Just a few more hours to go! :D

Just wondering, is it a one hour premiere, or a two? I'm happy either way, just curious. :)

PRENTISS TOTALLY JUST NOTICED THAT HOTCH IS MISSING.
BE STILL MY FANGIRL HEART!

[identity profile] bessemerprocess.livejournal.com 2009-09-24 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
THE CREDITS ARE BACK! I HAVE MISSED YOU, THEME MUSIC!

[identity profile] irvys-sefie.livejournal.com 2009-09-24 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
You can certainly tell that Hotch doesn't expect many personal phonecalls on that cell phone of his, judging from that message. XD

[identity profile] kyseral.livejournal.com 2009-09-24 01:09 am (UTC)(link)
I say they put Hotch at the end of the credits to drive us crazy...

[identity profile] dawnie-faith.livejournal.com 2009-09-24 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Why would it drive anyone crazy? The most important slots, status-wise, as far as opening credits goes, are the first and last slots (especially when the word "and" comes before the last spot, as it does in this case).

It's a contractual thing, like how Emily Deschanel and David Boreanaz share the first spot in the credits for Bones, and like Heather Locklear remained last in the opening credits for Melrose Place, with something like "and special guest star, Heather Locklear", long after she became a series regular.

If you'll notice, when AJC and KV held the last slot in the earlier seasons opening credits, they didn't get an "and" before their name because MP was the only really big name at the beginning of the series, and he got the "starring" first place spot. Now, TG has risen in importance and visibility on the show, but JM is a bigger name, and, again, it's a contractual thing...

My main point, after this big long ramble, is that the fact that the credits end with "and Thomas Gibson" is a very good thing for him, us, and Hotch.

(hopefully I haven't spent several paragraphs telling you something you already know - if I have, I apologize!)

Show, I love you.
Please never leave again.

[identity profile] 0justanothergrl.livejournal.com 2009-09-24 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
Did anyone else notice that the date Prentiss opened to in Hotch's planner was February 14th?
It's entirely possible that I'm reading too much into this, but I choose to disregard that.

OMGZOHNOES!

NOT READING ANY COMMENTS. COMMENTING TO SAY I AM SORROWFUL BECAUSE I CAN'T WATCH IT UNTIL IT POPS UP ONLINE.
