Wait- so they are making it an almost all male show?

More male, in the field. Looks like Prentiss will be there some (may retain regular status), and Garcia is untouched.
It feels pretty outrageous to me.
Me too. A shame. I think that the team really works well as it is and it's going to throw things out of balance.
That just sucks, all the way around.
Oh, FUCK no.
What ita said. I am NOT happy about this.

Ditto. I suspect the way they'll play it is JJ wanting to become a full-time mom-- they've certainly hinted at how conflicted she feels, ("Amplification" comes to mind) and then they might move Emily into JJ's capacity, which kind of gives them a natural out, since she can stay behind more easily that way. Which SUCKS because she is so tough in the field.
If they make that move I'll be even more pissed, since it makes both roles seem trivial.
I totally agree, ita. It would be monumentally stupid, because what JJ does is so integral, which they made such a point of emphasizing when Jordan was subbing for her. And Emily worked so hard to become a full-fledged member of the BAU-- now, the other scenario I could potentially see them cooking up for Emily would be sharing her with the Diplomatic Corps given her mother's background and her own facility with languages. Which might be more interesting in terms of character, but still, blows goats because I love Emily as part of the team.
