Criminal Minds Season 4 Promos

Sep 14, 2008 11:33

Good news, everybody.

Hotch being all bloody and staggering around is probably going to throw Breaking Spencer Reid back on track, at this rate.

Because OH MY GOD.

Anyway, that's that. Just dropping by to let anyone who still pushes back the cobwebs and looks at this journal that I'm not dead or anything, and to give a glimmer of hope to everyone who remembers this old story.

ps. I re-read about three sentences of BSR and was, to quote Robert Sean Leonard, about a bottle of Maker's Mark and a shotgun away from offing myself. How did anyone READ this drivel? I 'm going to do a full rewrite- I think I could improve it significantly, not to mention WOW needs some plot threads to stop unraveling. This thing has about as much continuity and coherence as the last decade of Marvel comics. [/obscure zing!] Plus I want to develop something instead of having a Relationship Ex Machina. Also less of everyone acting like teenage girls. Good GAWD.

And yes, I got one comment recently (err, relatively recently) about how Reid ought to be more traumatized or self-loathing or some such. It was well-thought-out and a great example was provided, but I don't believe it's consistent with his personality, particularly his knowledge of the criminal mind. He's not going to say, "Oh, woe, why did this happen to me?" He's going to say, "I just had to get kidnapped by a guy with a need to make others feel powerless." So I'm not going to alter his response to the whole rape thing too much. I am, however, going to add a new scene in the second arc because I do think I rushed them into the sex out of a general need to just write something.

Well, anywho. Off to cure some writer's block. And cut together all the clips of Hotch from the two promos and watch old episodes. Once the show starts up, I'll be able to write this thing like nobody's business.
