Criminal Minds Season 13 Premiere . . . Not impressed
So the season 13th of Criminal Minds premiered and I was curious to see where they would take it. All I can say is that it did what season 12 and Gibson's firing couldn't do, it finally slammed that door shut for me. I won't spoil anyone but I can say that I was far from impressed. Not with the casting, not with their allowing the actors to direct and write episodes, which I blame for the fall of standards and quality of the show. It is very blah and even though last season I kept coming skimming episodes to see what happened to Reid, even that storyline can't pull me back in. Sorry guys, I don't like the newest additions to the cast and I'm done with the poor quality of acting they seem to bring. I don't know if it's the bad directing, writing or a combination of that and other factors but my show is dead in the water. If they hadn't fired Gibson I might still be watching but without Hotch leading and with Emily being a poor man's substitute I just can't. Goodbye, my beloved, parting is not sweet sorrow in this case.
