Heh, on the way to or from dinner with the usual suspects last night, was talking with
clevemire about the YJ episode and how Stephanie Brown was apparently in the ep (not that they mention her by name, I figured she was just random blond with lines, it wasn't until reviews I saw later that people were all, "OMG, Stefanie Brown!"). And he mentioned the Stephanie Brown conspiracy, and how all these DC folks have been wanting to use her, and the higher ups keep telling them "NO!" even their star writers who had carte blanche! Or like, just when she came back alive and was getting a juicy new storyline, the new 52 happened and she was no longer around. Apparently the theorists joked that they got wind of Stephanie Brown being in that YJ ep and that's why they pulled it.
TV commentary:
SVU- Ah,
that one chick who always plays young Russian/Eastern European hookers. Well, except for in the Good Guys, when she was a lab tech or whatever. Or Criminal Minds, when she was actually the mastermind pretending to be an innocent victim. Or on Buffy as one of the other chyx who had a crush on the guy with the magic jacket. And on In Plain Sight, she was involved with the Russian mob, but not as a hooker. Nor was she one in that commercial where she has the umbrella, or the State Farm commercial. But she was one in Nikita. (Hey, she has a memorable look, so I remember when she's on shows I watch) I always thought she was kinda hot in that ultra-skinny Russian hooker kinda way.
And weird, with having Eames showing up. That's kinda a random person to have reprise their role, given she was on Criminal Intent, not SVU. Though I guess they did have Cutter show a bunch to do lawyer stuff after original L&O was canceled.
Criminal Minds- Hmm, interesting where they're going with Hotch and special lady friend.
When they said she got the job offer in NY, I was thinking, "Oh, I guess they're breaking up". But Hotch wants to make it work. I mean, that doesn't mean it can't go wrong later, but I'd like to see Hotch happy. This show can get so dark, its nice to see the team have happy moments out of work. Hopefully, if they do get rid of her, its not because of an unsub. I mean, he already lost Haley to the Reaper. And they just did a "something awful happens to one of their spouses/SOs" in last season's finale with JJ's husband being held hostage.
