things we'd like to see

[drasticbarbie.livejournal.com]

what would you like to know about each character in the next season? or what would you like them to do?

Rossi: maybe something about one of his exes. or something from his own past besides unsolved cases.

Prentiss: what happened to make her so tough? that chick is super tough.

Hotch: how things are different for him now that he's a single dad

Reid: his home, i'm dying to know what it looks like, maybe a relationship. anything from his personal life, at all.

JJ: something from her past as well. she's sort of a mystery.

Morgan: when did he first kick down a door? how'd he get into doing that? i love his door-kicking.

Garcia: i'd like to see a crime in her hometown. where is she from? idk.

I would like . . .

Hotch: To permanently step down as Unit Chief. Seriously. Your son lost his mother in a brutal murder, try and make one sacrifice for him and spend some time with him. I quite like Morgan as a leader, and to those who say he's not as good - well, the role's only just been thrust upon him.

Reid: Despite the hell load of Reid-fatigue the first four seasons have given us, there's something I'd like from Reid: his knowledge of pop culture. I think Holly Harold completely screwed it up with Reid not knowing Twilight or A Clockwork Orange in 5.07 Performer, given how he made a bloody Siouxsie and the Banshees reference to Prentiss in 3.19 Tabula Rasa. Admittedly that's music and not a film or book series (seriously, how lucky is he not to know this crap about Twilight? I'm still at school so I have friends that force me to attend the films), but still. And in 3.04 Children In The Dark he's familiar with the Cleavers!

Rossi: Aye, ex-wives galore. I can imagine this:
- one of them, like Haley, didn't get the job at all and was a terrible match for him (regardless of whether she was actually a lovely woman or not)
- one of them was actually a colleague (we know he's definitely fraternised with one, since JJ tells Garcia in Damaged that Rossi is the reason for fraternisation rules according to rumours she's heard) and it ended bittersweetly
- one of them was a snarky yet charming bitch that completely got him, but to a point where they were perhaps too similar, or wanted different things in life, so it ended. But they're still on good terms, and he occasionally calls her when he needs a good arse-kicking

Garcia: More on her parents. There've been scenes concerning drunk driving or parental loss and Garcia rarely gets to have a reaction shot or B plotline for them. We got a mere mention and montage of losing her parents in Penelope, and then it was only followed up on once in Hopeless, during a scene focused on Morgan. I want her to reminisce about her parents one day, just a little bit. Or find out what she did after her parents' death, while 'underground'. And those four step-brothers and that step-father, have they just been retconned completely?

JJ: God I want more stuff on her. Backstory, but preferably not a big tauma - I don't know why writers equate depth with trauma so damn much. You can be interesting with a good family too, for god's sake. I just really want a non-uterus-centric story for her, for once. And a scene with her and Morgan talking fanatically about football, with Reid (and possibly Emily) looking puzzled.

Prentiss: Does her father even exist? Hotch asks abouther parents in The Last Word, and she says they're fine but I'm willing to be that they'll retcon that somehow. Or perhaps they're just distant as hell bt, as far as she knows, her father is alright. I also want to know some more on her music tastes. And is she a lesbian? God I hope so, though is she were bisexual it would make more sense, given her chemistry with Det. Cooper in Lo-Fi and Mayhem.

Morgan: More on his 4 properties, his relationship with Tamara - we just know it's going to crash and burn, but hopefully in the process he can learn to open up, and understand that it only went wrong because of the relationship they had when they met, and the state she was in - wrong place, wrong time.

Really, really want Jordan to return and flirt with Emily some more. Also would be nice to see Sean Hotchner and Ambassador Prentiss again.
