This so wasn't me last fall when CM premiere. I have my squee back.
The wonderful:
-Emily and JJ are back, and they had scenes together and dialogue and implied events together during the last 7 months....
-Reid is expressing his anger and hurt as snark. I approve, though I'm very concerned about him.
-Hotch looks SO GOOD with a beard. I was very sad to see it go.
-We got to see Declan and how Emily's work all went towards something (even if this whole thing with his mother and Doyle is now going to traumatize him.)
- Doyle, I was disappointed to see him go, but what a death scene it was! I may have teared up a little for both Declan and Emily, because no matter how aweful and man he was, they both couln't help but love him.
- JJ is exploring a broader career in profiling now, and I think that it will turn out for the best. I don't see it eliminating her former skills or roles, but rather giving her additional flexibility to fill in various roles as needed. And I really got the impression a lot has happened to JJ in the last year. That brief moment she mentioned Will? AJ's delivering seemed to imply all is not well...
The bad:
(And shallow) Emily's yellow shirt. It was ugly, and she almost never dresses ugly. :(
Also, now that
amichevole has
pointed it out, I can't unsee that Garcia and Prentiss don't talk about Sergio for a full 2 weeks after Emily's return. Wouldn't that be one of the top subjects to address, after catching the bad guy? Or perhaps that's the crazy cat lady priorities in me.
