And JJ got in a good snark at Elle's expense, which surprised me on the part of the show--Reid tells her that Elle's shooting of the rapist was deemed a "good shoot" and JJ says "Well, she hit what she was aiming for." Reid says "That's not what I meant" and JJ says she knows.

Meow! Elle was too tightly wound and selfish for me. Prentiss is a much better team player.

Yep. I like CM much better with Rossi and Prentiss than with Gideon and Elle. Never liked either of them.

I always liked Elle, for whatever reason.

Nathan Fillion says, via Twitter, "We got something for Buffy fans coming up on Castle!"

Big tease.

Will it be as obscure as the catalyzer, I wonder?

Or as blatant as the space cowboy outfit? Maybe Castle will dress up as a priest.

And stab someone's eye out.

It's research!

no matter what, I'm looking forward to it!

I think maybe I missed something on CM tonight. I didn't understand why they had to go see "The Fox" to figure this one out; granted Prentiss used her insight from the interview to peg the crucial detail, but they've solved similar cases on their own. As nice as it is to see the continuity, bringing back a previous killer, it looked like the whole case was just a way to spring this trap on Hotch. "The Fox" said, he knew you'd come, but how did he know that? He didn't commit the murders, so did he just take advantage of them? It does explain how he knew about Emily, but I was surprised that she never asked him how he knew her.

Previews: OMG. ... Haley dyed her hair.

OK, upon re-watch I've answered most of my own questions. And they can't kill Haley; she has to raise Jack.
