Criminal Minds and a little Doctor Who

[weaselett]

Taking a break from my big bang work (not that I really need a break from picspaming topless!sean bean...) to post my reaction to Criminal Minds (6x22) - which is mostly shallow, but partly to do with the case

I had a moment, during the whole underwater scene, of thinking 'but they can't fire underwater'

Me too! That was the first thing I said. It just seemed off to me, for basically the same reason you said: old style guns were hella trouble in damp/wet conditions. I guess these newfangled guns are different.

Also, were you and I sharing a brain for this ep? Because I also criticized Morgan's CPR technique. Cause hey, chest compressions with no air aren't really gonna help her.

And in a trifecta, I also briefly wondered if the LEO was the unsub. Because he so conveniently found the body.

I have zero interest in Seaver. To me she's just not!JJ and not!Prentiss. They could have kept one of them and left her off completely.

Rossi and Hotch were adorable at the game. It's so funny that Rossi would agree to help with that, because he doesn't seem like the type.

There was not nearly enough Garcia or Reid to suit me. Although that's almost always the case unless the ep is focused on them.

LOL yeah, especially as I'm not quite sure how it is her heart had already stopped....*waves hands* we were probably meant to be more distracted by wet!hotch and wet!morgan (I got distracted by how fake!wet! Hotch was - cos the way his hair gel was - his hair was all floppy under the water *takes a moment to be shallow

more distracted by wet!hotch and wet!morgan

Well, wet!Morgan is especially distracting. When they were going in the house, prior to that and he was holding his gun? Oh jeez, those arms were just making me drool. And I may have said aloud, "It should be illegal for one man to look that sexy".

there really needs to be an episode where the LEO IS the unsub - they've never done that

I think that would be a great twist. I know other shows have done it or at least I think I remember that. So it would be cool, I think.

See I like the idea of seaver, I just think they've failed totally at writing her Yes. Also, I think I harbor resentment about the whole "we can't afford AJ and Paget, but can afford some new chick" thing which really has nothing to do with the character and everything to do with the PTB behind the scenes. Which isn't fair to the character, but there you go

Heh - I am a Hotch and Garcia girl, but I will allow that Morgan is pretty ;) especially if you stuck him in a room with Hotch and Garcia *fans self*my seaver fic is kinda weird - I have a partial draft - that's I'm poking - and it's complex cos it's seaver in semi-present as the focus (so the reader only knows what she does) and Hotch in his early bau days in the same role - and I think I need to seriously consider where it's going and rewrite what I've written (and have pre-retirement rossi be less of an arse

OMG, same reaction. And I was gonna look it up as soon as I finished reading your reaction, it was in my google bar up top and everything, and then you did all the work for me. ;P

HEEE I am glad to be of help *bows*

There's mythbusters as well *nods* - according to which, and in combination with that website I linked, Hotch was just close enough to have killed the bad guy and he must have a non factory stock gun for it to have fired three things :D

(I need to read the book on geographical profiling I have around somewhere, so I can critque Reid some time ;))
