Criminal Minds ep 8 felt wildly different from previous episodes, focusing so much on the actual criminal’s mind. Interesting, but the show’s tones are all over the place. Still enjoying, though!

    This week’s story arc on its own was good, but the drama overall, I agree it is all over the place.

    I feel like the Show thinks that it can only grip viewers and KEEP viewers if there’s something big and drastic every single moment in every single episode, but truly, for me, and I’m sure for a whole handful of viewers, what we really enjoy most are the subtle, quiet moments that show us the true personalities of each of our beloved characters… Don’t get me wrong, the cases are interesting, but I just don’t need something big and in-my-face to be happening for every second, every minute of an episode to keep me tied to my screen XD

      I agree with what you said completely! I much prefer the episodes that focus on members of the team, those hit much closer to home for me and I actually care about their safety and wellbeing. I appreciate the big, menacing cases, but the show needs to utilize their powerhouse actors. I feel like Moon Chae-won hasn’t been given much to do yet and I really want a strong, badass, smart woman leading the team around for a bit. I want more focus on the characters than on multiple serial killers running loose around South Korea and that random anthrax story that started and ended in one episode, ha.

        lol
        I feel like Moon Chae Won and Lee Sun Bin should have been given each other’s characters to portray…. I feel like Moon Chae Won would have done a better job as the “Korean JJ” and Lee Sun Bin would have had more of a chance to show whatever acting ability she has as the “Korean Prentiss”… Lee Sun Bin’s current version of the “Korean JJ” is a bit too soft and pretty for me XD
