If this were an undercover operation, what do you think she was investigating as ‘Kathy, the acting student’?

“What did you join a boy band?”

“Where are my clothes?”

“Remind me to have her drug tested.”

What are some of your favorite funny lines from Hotch?

of course when strauss offered him retirement i rolled my eyes because i wouldn’t want to see hotch go. but realistically speaking, should hotch have resigned to be with jack??

like hotch said, jack always needed his dad but at least he had his mom. but now with his mom gone, he needs his dad more than ever. however, all of that is pretty much exiled under the guise of hotch “needing to catch the bad guy” and “continue being the role model for jack.” and im biased so ofc i am happy asf that hotch decided to stay but idk.. he definitely should’ve retired to be with his son 😭

im only on season 5 so idk if he does end up retiring in the future, im only referencing strauss’s offer after haley’s death.

Why did nobody tell me that the episode where Derek left the BAU so damn emotional 😭😭😭😭

I fall asleep watching CM. I’m just starting Reid’s prison arc. So I had a dream that Penelope was getting angry about making sure everyone had their letters for Reid by 3:00. Meanwhile, I couldn’t find a pen. All of a sudden, I’m dating Reid, but we barely started dating when he got arrested. Penelope had given out cards to everyone, and I lost mine.😭 I couldn’t find her for a while, so I grabbed one of Reid’s books, and was writing in the blank spaces of the illustrations. I didn’t know what to say, because we didn’t discuss how we spoke to each other romantically. When I finally found her, I gave her the book (soft cover) and she gave me that annoyed look, and said something like “ you want me to bring THIS HUGE THING to a prison?”

She hated me. Something, something, something, and she didn’t hate me anymore, but was angry the rest of the time.

Then I woke up. The End.

I love all but the Evolution ones

sometimes i kinda wish they would tell us what happened to the unsub, kinda like SVU in a way. i wonder if joe ended up going to prison for his involvement or if it was exiled because he was forced into it and just trying to save his family?

they mentioned that he was undercover (idk if he was still active) which makes me think that he probably wouldn’t go to prison for his involvement as a UC.

idk, i sometimes just wanna know what ends up happening to the unsub, especially in cases like this

my face is literally drenched in tears and snot 😭 everything about this episode was literally my worst nightmare like was it designed to kill me or something?? do they want george foyet to kill us too orrrr ?????

when i get done with the show and do my rewatch, idk if i can rewatch this episode. but its almost impossible to ignore the plot, its not just a random gut wrenching episode you usually skip— it’s one of the biggest plots 😭

hotch’s speech had me in tears and ughhh poor jack wtf 😭😭 ik it’s a tv show but watching a child lose a parent so young will forever get me.

rip to my girl haley 😭😭

I would prefer to watch it legally. Pay for a subscription of a streaming site and watch it. I have always loved the show. Finished it when it did air. Been wanting to binge watch it again.

just finished season 8, and there’s references in the finale to the idea of them being more than friends?

curious to hear other interpretations

Season five, episode nine- ‘100’.

The death of Hailey. It guts me and makes me cry every single time I see it. When Jack says “Ow, Mommy you’re hugging me too hard”, that’s the start of the waterworks. And then the gunshot, the intense fight where all the rage came out of Hotch as he killed Foyet with the flashbacks and emotion of every thing he put him through, with Jack hiding and Hotch finding him ok, but then when Hotch lifts Hailey and cries with her in his arms is just such a gut punch. Pretty sure this episode is the hardest one for me. Maeve’s death was a rough one, too. But this episode is just SO heartbreaking, and always messes me up for a little bit. 😢

Oh God here comes the funeral… (watching on WEtv currently). 😭😭

What is your hardest/saddest episode?

roommate is gone so i can cry all i want. i just want to get it over with since the anxiety leading up to this episode has probably been worse than what i’ll be feeling in this episode 😭😭

I was watching the season 12 finale where the BAU finally get Spencer out of prison after realising that Cat Adams and Lindsey Vaughan were responsible for everything, then they have to deal with Mr Scratch during the season 13 premiere.

Did they sleep at all during this? If not surely their cognitive functions would be compromised? I guess adrenaline would help get them through
(Also I have no idea how Spencer didn't mentally implode during this time)

There are other times where they are on time-sensitive cases that seem to last days, do they ever get to rest?

I know this is just a TV show and not realistic but it's fun to discuss these things :)

I think Reid undoubtedly had the most difficult job, script wise. Imagine having to memorize all them ‘boy wonder’ words. Phew!

i’m rewatching criminal minds for the millionth time , and i just noticed something i’d never caught before . was haley cheating on hotch?? i’m talking about the scene where the house landline rings , hotch answers , but nobody says anything , and then a couple of seconds later , her cell phone starts ringing from inside her purse . and before she leaves the room , she grabs said purse ?? hello ?? am i the only one who thinks that’s suspicious , or did i miss something ?
