katikatFor the first time in a long time, an ep of Criminal Minds actually caught my interest.
I'm not really a Hotchner fan, but I like his character. He is quite stoic and nothing can ruffle his feathers. I like how Thomas Gibson plays this character: soft spoken, no expression at all, always collected. Quite an interesting portrayal.
I also loved how Reid's addiction was mentioned, the look he exchanged with Gideon. And the worried look Morgan gave him. Yes, I love the Big Brother relationship Morgan has with Reid. It's quite cute :)
The plot was interesting, even if rather cruel - well, every mass murderer slash psychopath is a cruel monster but this one really got me. Maybe because I consider burning alive the worst possible death *shudders*
But it was not the plot that interested me, but the bits and pieces we learned about Hotchner. That he thought that his father had an affair and in reality he was going to doctors and lawyers etc. because he had lung cancer. That's quite sad.
Emily Prentiss still leaves me cold. I don't like the actress, I don't like the character. Period :( Though Garcia is still love! :D

Missed the ep *sigh*
Date: 2007-04-07 08:27 pm (UTC)I thought Reid wasn't taken those drugs after he was rescued... I mean it looked like he refused to take them down in New Orleans during the Jack The Ripper episode...am I missing something?
I love how the gang interacts especially Reid, Morgan, Gideon. I think Hotchner and Garcia play off each other well too. Not carring much for Emily's character though.

Date: 2007-04-07 08:37 pm (UTC)I must admit that I like Reid's character. But then, I always loved geeks :D At first, I loved the interaction between him and Gideon, but now I crave Reid and Morgan. So cute! :D
