Oh goodie, I'm just jumping for joy here. Five bucks says next season she won't even be on the original.

[jl_decker]

I sincerely don't think that's going to happen. I could be wrong, but it would be stupid to fire AJ this season, then have Prentiss and Garcia both disappear next season.

I hope she sticks to the original. Wahoo fall is approaching which means new episodes of all my favorite shows! LOL WOW I am a boring loser.

Call me cynical and jaded, but it really seems to me like they're using the character of Garcia as a consolation prize far too much. It's like they're saying, "we didn't cut out ALL the women, we still have Garcia, who's the BEST ONE RIGHT :D" and now saying, "The spin off won't TOTALLY suck, it's gonna have GARCIA WHO WE ESTABLISHED IS THE BEST LADY RIGHT :D :D :D"

It's like they're trying to bribe us into watching the spin-off (which looks like it will otherwise be spectacularly awful, judging by that pilot) by waving a fan-favorite character in front of our faces. ~Loooook, maybe she'll finally get some more character developmeeeent oooooooh~~ You'll never know if you don't watch the spin-off like you said you wouldn't~~~

I don't totally disagree, actually.

Okay, I'll totally get off the beaten path. I'm thrilled to bits, at least we have familiar character on the spin-off.

Oh good. I was starting to feel like a pariah. I have a feeling there are more people who would watch it for her who are just afraid to admit it because there is so much vitriol coming from the people still adamantly hating the idea.

'Vitriol' is a little strong. I think people are just genuinely shocked and saddened by all that's happening. Also, it's far too much of a coincidence that goings on with CM are concordant with developments for the spinoff.

[anomalous1]

It's a show. it's horrible, it's sad, but it's a show. I bet the same thing happened when Mandy/Gideon left, when Elle left... but it happens, and sometimes the show is still just as good, sometimes it's not.

I'm not interested in watching the spinoff or the original now. It seems like a cynical ploy to get people who were swearing off the spinoff after the casting debacle to give it a try. I think Kirsten, and Garcia, are being used.
