smoker July 30, 2015 Share July 30, 2015 (edited) And this is why "Show, don't tell" matters. Emily "died" in Lauren, and then was revealed to be alive in It Takes A Village. In real time, that was a little over seven months. On the show, as per Reid's remarks to JJ, that was ten weeks, which is two months and change. Ignoring that huge disparity, there were a lot of things related to Prentiss' "death" that were covered - not just the grief counseling, but Strauss telling Hotch that his own assessment was missing from the report she was looking over, Rossi asking Aaron where he went to discuss his loss (not to mention comparing it to Haley's death), and Garcia staring mournfully at Prentiss' memorial picture on the wall with those of other fallen agents. And of course Morgan saying that he sometimes felt like putting aside his badge, quitting so that he could go after Doyle himself. Granted, I consider Reid's addiction the biggest issue, and not just because I'm a fan, but because starting to use again might have killed him. If he had died, wouldn't it have made things doubly tragic because he believed that he was never going to see the actually alive Emily again? To just have that glossed over for some bogus "We're family" crap is the same thing that pissed me off about [The Forever People, particularly since JJ couldn't get Spencer to shut up fast enough when he was the one trying to get her to talk. I think we are focusing in different angles of the same story, my point is faking Prentiss death was a tactical decision and it must be isolated of personal repercussions. Of course, there are a lot of inconsistencies surrounding the story line, everyone feels there are ones more annoying than others. Aside of that, agree about the "we're family" crap, not repeating myself here, I just want to add we have seen Hotch teaming with JJ and Rossi even with Morgan, and Garcia with Morgan, and they have always left Reid out of their conspiracies, one of the few reasons I did like Blake, she was close to Reid for real. So if I were Reid I would be really mad. It is curious you pay attention to Rossi's comment about Haley and Prentiss, I didn't take it like a comparison but a remark about losing two dear people in a short period of time because a real comparison would be an insult. Let's not forget all of them should have been fired for their behavior after season 7 premier. In my opinion, the one reason for not doing it was to save the FBI reputation, the bureau would have been mocked around because of their behavior (and no more criminal minds, of course) Edited July 30, 2015 by smoker 1 Link to comment

Yes, but not having the team in on the deception, including Reid, meant that they blocked a truly great resource for finding Doyle, defusing the threat to Emily, securing Declan. If they had been smart enough to make this a team endeavor, Prentiss would have been brought home sooner, and Doyle would have been neutralized. As it was, IMO, they actually endangered not only Reid, but Morgan, Rossi, and even possibly the children of Hotch and JJ (Garcia too, but who cares). They didn't "keep them safe", again IMO. 4 Link to comment

I just dislike this storyline, as sad as it sounds I could never have let it go and trust Emily or anyone again, I'm counting Emily lying about her reasons to stay in D.C. for so many years, messing around with a terrorist and then leave her friends behind for a fancier job. Well, now it's the right time to remember myself this is just a tv show and EM and the writers are guilty of everything in CM universe ;P Edited July 31, 2015 by smoker 1 Link to comment

Was there not anyone else working in the Pentagon, I mean what was her job? for real, when she wasn't playing Carrie Mathison in Middle East. The fact she knows a lot of people doesn't mean they are going to do whatever for her, she isn't the "Godmother". if Hotch was the only one knowing about this or he had delegated Prentiss protection to a more qualified organization, I would have swallowed it better 1 Link to comment
ForeverAlone July 31, 2015 Share July 31, 2015 The whole way they had to retcon JJ's involvement in Emily's disappearance was contorted in the extreme. I suspended my disbelief in "Lauren", even though she went from working for the Department of Defense to Department of State, just because I was happy to see JJ at that point. But then in "200" when they tried to make all the pieces fit with JJ chasing terrorists in Afghanistan AND being called back to deal with Emily, it just collapsed into utter ridiculousness. 5 Link to comment

One thing doesn't make sense, namely JJ being involved in the first place, and from there everything else stops making sense. From the moment Emily "died", Hotch and maybe Strauss should have been the only ones who were aware of the truth. I'm sure JJ had various connections that could have proved helpful, at least if her Pentagon job added to her network, but procuring various identities and funds for Prentiss to live on while she was overseas? No. As for Rossi, I didn't mean that he made a literal comparison. What he said was, "You've lost more than any of us," and he and Aaron drank a toast to Emily and Haley. That Hotch knew all along that Emily was still alive is the insult, since he was conducting those sessions under false pretenses, not to mention lying to Strauss about it. Hell, in the episode where Strauss tells him she's going to be away from the office for a while dealing with what she refers to as personal issues, Aaron asks her if she wants to talk about it, and she says, "Why, so you can evaluate me? I don't do that either." Really, the entire thing is as much of a mess as the Replicator storyline, and it was just a way to get Paget off the show. At least when JJ left, it made a little more sense. Not a whole lot more sense, but still. 5 Link to comment

And yeah, from a plot perspective it's such a clown car. I just got to the part where Prentiss and her old colleagues are being the worst superspies in the history of the universe. They dress in this all-black gear that stands out from the rest of the crowd, they meet super obviously, for any watcher it would be immediately evident that they're talking to each other on those phones, then they throw away those phones into the trash in plain sight where they can be retrieved. They might as well have tattooed "Hey Doyle! Here we are!" onto their foreheads. It was seemingly all about how cool it looked for tptb, no thought went into plausibility or characterization with that stuff. 6 Link to comment

Yes, he was lying to their faces, but again it was supposed to be necessary to keep the charade I don't remember that line from Strauss, it's interesting her answer and it's interesting they were lying to each other Hotch about Prentiss and Strauss was supposed to be lying about JJ's transfer and her whereabouts. Actors's departures are weird or messy most of the times, I was ok with JJ's until she came back, but I do agree with the Interpol and the replicator arcs, they were awful storylines 2 Link to comment

Close-ups of Hotch, team dynamics, intense emotion -- some of the best television ever. I think it should be required viewing for all writers, every season. 5 Link to comment
normasm August 4, 2015 Share August 4, 2015 Yes, Droogs. The opening blackout sequences, with you seeing Reid first in the front yard -blackout - JJ yakking her guts - blackout - Rossi running up the front steps motioning us in - blackout - Emily with a seriously horrified look on her face pulling our focus up the stairs - blackout - to where Morgan is hovering over a scene that he stands up from, and turns to us, telling the guy to go downstairs where he can be of help - blackout. Such good storytelling. 4 Link to comment
Droogie August 4, 2015 Share August 4, 2015 Oh my gosh, the feels. Hotch was the baddest badass ever to badass. Foyet was the best UnSub ever. I loved Reid and Emily with Strauss.

And that unfortunately ruined her character for me among other things. To be fair, I don't think "We are family" is entirely a bad thing. With the exception of the Revolving Door Of Brunettes, the characters have known one another for ten years, and that's a long enough time to establish fairly close relationships. And I'm not of the mindset that it ruins a female character in particular to soften them somewhat. If anything, what wasn't all that realistic to me was that Strauss was the only one with a substance abuse problem. With the exception of Reid, who had his addiction forced on him, none of them have ever been tempted to take one drink too many, or even use something stronger? OTOH, I do think the "family" vibe is way overdone, but that's because EM is a maroon who's unwilling to allow any kind of conflict to last (looking at you, Proof), and so she kludges together a rushed resolution to restore (her kind of) order. In the hands of people who actually know what they're doing, there would be conflicts and tensions that simmer beneath the surface, occasionally flare up, and then subside again, but they would still be present. 5 Link to comment

Proof :::flails, tears at hair::: That tripe aside, I remember another gathering at Alex's father's house that was just weird to me (I swear, I have literally wiped most of S9 from my memory). I've always thought that maybe Hotch, with his famous self-control, could easily drink an extra scotch or three at times. And I think Rossi probably does do that. I don't know why Strauss could get help and keep her job but Reid had to do everything alone... Both addictions were job related, in a sense. If the BAU were a construction site, it was as though Strauss fell off a ladder, but Reid was pushed. And I do think they are a family of sorts; like you said, CoStar, they've been together a long time, and they do spend the majority of their time together. But families often have bad and ugly along with good. And scrap and scrabble and get hurt feelings but underneath it all, love each other and have the security of that abiding affection to be their true selves. But no, EM, those disagreements don't always resolve in 42 minutes with a pasta dinner or a barbecue. 5 Link to comment
ForeverAlone August 4, 2015 Share August 4, 2015 Ick! I HATED the ending of the "The Bully" with that god awful barbecue scene with Alex's family. That felt incredibly contrived and unrealistic, and it is scenes like that that make me rebel against the idea the team is some sort of family. I hate saccharine sweet and Erica 's leadership seems to encourage those sorts of scenes from her writers. There is a BIG difference between alcohol abuse and narcotic abuse in the eyes of most bosses. Big one. So even though Reid developed that addiction due to it being forced on him, it took him a while before he went and got help. Instead he indulged in his habit, though why his friends didn't take a more open line with him is anyone's guess. I can understand why Hotch wanted to give himself plausible deniability since he was his boss, but there wasn't more of a concerted effort to even deal with Reid's PTSD. And since rank does have its privileges to a certain extent, I tend to think that the higher ups wouldn't be as lenient with him as they were with Strauss, and hard drug abuse can definitely result in your security clearance being revoked. Any substance abuse can result in a security clearance revocation, but an illegal drug habit is not going to be as forgivable as booze. 5 Link to comment
Bookish Jen August 4, 2015 Share August 4, 2015 I'm not sure I'd agree in principle- I don't believe anyone should be “off-limits” as a victim, because anyone can be a victim- crime does not discriminate. What I didn't like was more the idea of Garcia- a “Hollywood Homely” type- finally getting an attractive guy attracted to her only to find out it's a ruse. I get that something like that is possible in real life, and the story needed a “why is he drawn to her” that needed to give the audience pause, but I think with the media, and TV in particular, doing almost everything they can to tell women they need to be unreasonably attractive just to bag even an “average” guy, I think the path to victimization was the wrong one to take. Why can't a woman finally get someone “out of her league” for a change? I would have to say a lot of the guys I've dated have been pretty darn good-looking. I'm not so ugly that I reach Ted Cruz levels of ugly, but I'm not so delusional to think I'm a hot babe (which today frankly means looking like the pornified-fembots on FOX), but I do clean up to fairly cute. We are so quick to judge guys for being shallow-they only care about how a woman looks and I'm guilty at times of this-but let's give some guys credit. Many of them do care about a woman's personality, character and intelligence. Yes, Garcia is "Hollywood Homely," but at her personal best, she is kind, friendly, tech savvy, creative, smart, supportive of her friends, fun and into really cool stuff-I could totally see myself having crafternoons with Garcia. And let's not forget, Kevin fell for Garcia after he saw her "gooey" or however, it's spelled. He thought she was the coolest girl ever and soon they met and became totally woobie over each other for a while. 1 Link to comment

If the BAU were a construction site, it was as though Strauss fell off a ladder, but Reid was pushed. I agree that Hotch and Rossi can and probably do indulge in alcohol, but what I was referring to is drinking to cope, which is a separate thing IMO. Their personal lives may be calm, even serene, but professionally they're surrounded by horror - shitty people who do shitty things for shitty reasons. The few exceptions, like Samantha Malcolm and Owen Savage, only serve to prove the rule. I've said it before, but law enforcement is home to a host of emotional problems, and substance abuse is among them. And yet, on the show, only Reid and Strauss dealt with that, and Spencer just because Tobias shot him up against his will? Hell, according to Bad Teeth Man, Tobias was cutting the Dilaudid he was using with LSD, because he wanted to escape from his life just that much. And that was what Reid was telling his NA group in Elephant's Memory, that he wanted to forget. I mean, I can't speak for everyone, but isn't that a big part of self-medicating, that you're trying to run away from something? And since rank does have its privileges to a certain extent, I tend to think that the higher ups wouldn't be as lenient with him as they were with Strauss, and hard drug abuse can definitely result in your security clearance being revoked. Any substance abuse can result in a security clearance revocation, but an illegal drug habit is not going to be as forgivable as booze. I agree, had Reid's drug use become common knowledge, they'd have booted him out of the Bureau so fast it would have made his pretty head spin. OTOH, Strauss tells Hotch in the episode where they find out she's drinking again "You have no idea of what this is going to do to me." She made it sound like she'd be facing repercussions of some sort, even if it was only related to rumors or something. That she would be so foolish as to be half-drunk on what was supposed to be a sensitive case (like, seriously, Erin, if you don't want to get caught, stay off the sauce while you're on the job) is another matter. Yes, drinking is legal and drug use isn't, but how many times do you see someone on TV with a drink in their hand when its supposed to be the middle of the day or even in the morning as if its completely normal as opposed to someone using hard drugs? Hell, they don't even really show people on TV smoking pot unless they're about to develop a major addiction. Which happens overnight. Because drugs are bad, mmmkay? 3 Link to comment
Droogie August 5, 2015 Share August 5, 2015 I definitely agree with all this. I'd just like to think it wouldn't happen that way, because Spencer had it forced on him; he would never have started using drugs on his own. 2 Link to comment
ForeverAlone August 5, 2015 Share August 5, 2015 (edited) Spencer SHOULD have been subjected to a thorough medical and psych exam after being rescued. At that time, the doctors should have noticed the track marks and done a tox screen to know that he had been injected with narcotics. THAT is when his bosses should have monitored him closely and ensured he got sufficient treatment, including any detox or other drug treatment he might have needed. He should also have had some sort of psych eval before coming back to work. But for reasons only known to the writers, they elected to let Reid flail on his own. I guess they thought it would be a better written arc, though they didn't really follow through. Edited August 5, 2015 by ForeverAlone 6 Link to comment

But it wouldn't surprise me if, in real life, people aren't monitored as much as they should be after traumatic experiences. That's why so many people, especially first responders, prison guards, military, etc have PTSD and such high rates of suicide. 2 Link to comment
ForeverAlone August 5, 2015 Share August 5, 2015 Spencer was a crime victim and should have been given the same sort of medical treatment all crime victims receive. It's not like he would have just gone back to his hotel room. At that point, the doctors would have noticed the track marks on his arm and a tox screen should have shown he was administered narcotics. Just like Emily was ordered into counseling upon her return, Gideon was monitored after his major depressive episode.Spencer should have as well. JJ too, but that is another argument. And the military is making a concerted effort to tackle PTSD and prevent suicides. If you are involved in a specific traumatic event, you will have access to the care you need. Even if you aren't, the military is training its personnel to be alert for signs of PTSD, substance abuse, suicide risk. It isn't perfect, but the effort is there. 4 Link to comment
