CM 6.02, "JJ": "They can't just take you away..."

Sep 29, 2010 22:03

So, it's 10:05 EST, and I've been bawling for the past 10 minutes over a television show. And despite what people who shall remain my mother might say, I don't do this all that often. But like most people in this episode, I must defer to the power of forces greater than myself. Like the CM writing staff and cast.

The only thing you can trust is the ground beneath you. Until one day, it shifts. )

*sniff* You're far more eloquent than I on this topic.

*hug*

I feel like I always fuck up in person, and then retroactively write what I want to say in my head. And here comes fandom, which provides an outlet to be myself at my best. Or at least have a chance to edit afterwards. ;)

This. One million times this. Beautifully said. I'm too busy being upset/angry to say this so eloquently.

The handshake and the "I'll miss you" was so quintessentially Hotch, because if he hugged her, he would have completely lost it.

OMG, so true. Kudos to TG, because you got the feeling that Hotch just went into his office to have a good cry pull himself together. This separation, again, of his family was heartwrenching to watch.

Damn you, CBS. And hats off to the Crim Minds cast and crew. An excellent job in a completely sucky situation.

Eh, when I'm in pain, or angry, or have fucked up, I write (in my head or on paper). Or, alternately, I'm always better on paper than I am in person.

Hotch didn't even need to break down in front of the other 5. The walk, the door, it meant as much. With prior knowledge k, it was a knife to the heart. We had 45 minutes of him trying to stop this, so we know how he felt. (I need to go write Hotch and tiny!Jac; or possibly Hotch-Garcia/Night-Watch-'Verse fic.)

Yeah, CBS can really fuck off. I will do as much this year as I can to support my shows without supporting them.

I started crying again just reading this....last night I was in full-blown 'boo-hoo' mode for the last 10 minutes or so. And JJ solved the case...she was the one who noticed the phone in the back seat of the car and knew that the parents had it...so Katie must have made it back to her room. It will be very interesting to see how her loss is handled...who will pick the cases? Who will deal with the media? Wonderful episode...great send-off for a fantastic actress!

( I vote for Hotch, tiny Jack fic or Hotch/Garcia 'Nightwatch verse!)
