I am breaking up with Criminal Minds. The emotional blackmail of this last episode, combined with the sloppy storylines and decrease in actual profiling, has combined to end my love.

Also, I avoided this for as long as possible, but it's clear I need a Loki icon or six. Because Loki. Probably at least one Cap/Coulson icon, too. Or Stark/Coulson. Because yum.

Sorry about the breakup. I broke up with them for S7 (I found the first few eps intolerable and haven't watched any of the rest of it. Except for the last one!) I started watching for the new character and I really do like her. I've been enjoying it for the most part. Though they don't seem to bring too many in alive....

I figured as soon as Reid had a girlfriend that Things Would End Badly. (And I'm a Leverage fan, so kept waiting for the g/f to do an awesome Parker move--then I'd be like, oh, yeah. Not Parker.) I was hoping that the stalker was a red herring...that maybe she was making it up, something like that, but alas, no. Although I suppose they thought they were being clever with that kill shot, but honestly? No.

And ffs, Reid's gonna be joining his mama very soon if they keep this up. (Er, though it did make me think of the massive h/c fic ops. Yeah, slasher through and through.)

I am to the point where I generally don't watch it on TV and wait to d/l it--though I was lucky with this one, it aired in Canada a day before, so I was able to d/l it early.

I think the change of showrunner really screwed CM up--that and losing some of their best writers. It's always sad when a show goes downhill...and no one at the show or network seems to notice.

I had finished with writing fic for the show, though I've still been reading fic from time to time. But yeah, this is probably the end of me bothering to watch it.

When we started hearing about the girlfriend, and she was scared of some mysterious "him", I thought she had some connection to the unsub who was season-long stalking the team. I thought it would be a clever twist if said unsub had recruited a girl to lure one of the team members into complacency...or even if he had just started victimizing her to get her to reach out to one of the profilers and distract him.

Either way, I guess I was giving the writers too much credit. *sigh* Too bad.

Was reading a Q&A (from twitter) with Breen Frazier on tumblr and he says there IS a connection between Maeve and the stalker dude. In response to whether Maeve has anything to do with the team stalker: "Yes, but in a very unexpected way. If you look at the phone call at the beginning there’s a plot hole that’s not a plot hole!"

So, not sure where that's going. Also, they're apparently doing a Profiler, Profiled part deux. Not sure if it's Morgan related or someone else. Also noises about a "Hotch ep". *sigh* It probably won't be what I'd like, which is more about his past. I do have to say it's rather odd, reading all these spoilery bits.

Cus I remember when I had more of an inside track. *snicker*

I hope you do have another show/shows to help fill the void....

[innerslytherin]

Then again, the way the show is going, not sure if you would want to still have that inside track. *G*

I've been pretty madly addicted to Chicago Fire, actually. It doesn't hurt that I've always thought Jesse Spencer is pretty, and he's even prettier without the Chase-hair, and I really like the hot lesbian character and her best friends, one of whom is a pretty man-whore and the other of whom is a tough Latina chick who is head over heels for her best friend.

And Revenge is my guilty pleasure. I'm sort of in love with the skinny, sexually ambiguous computer genius, who also happens to be one of the few people on that show with a moral compass that mostly points north. *G*

But I am not going to write fic. I am concentrating on my novel. *firm nod*
