The pilot was OK to me, but I’m not sure I’m feeling the team. I didn’t get a good feel for Prophet. What was he in for that would garner info from a current inmate, especially after finding out he’s FBI? (would the FBI hire an ex-con field agent?) Is he a hacker? San Q isn't a low security prison. Is he supposed to be their Garcia? Or is that Gina since she was showing off about the network set up? She’s certainly not very intimidating – I could take her just by sitting on her. Hell, I think my 13-year-old could take her. Is she supposed to be part Morgan/Garcia (and Reid what with the ssuspect narrowing and all)? Rawsom was very charming but there’s no chemistry between him and Gina (lots with Emily though). I noticed Cooper doing the Gideon thing of writing/keeping pictures. Does Rossi do that? I don’t think I’ve noticed. I was shocked that Erin rolled over and let both Hotch and Cooper off the hook. She’s written very unevenly and it’s disconcerting.

Prophet makes no sense to me, and they didn't manage to set up an air of mystery, just confusion. So no interest there. The woman is a lost cause acting and writing-wise. No pop there. The British guy might be coasting on an accent and some charisma, but it's a cute accent. I have faith Forrest Whitaker will rise above his material, but that's barely half the cast.
I sense a recasting before fall.
If they test the female character, I think that they'll find that she's not hot enough for the men or badass enough for the women. I say take Van Pelt from The Mentalist (because Jane has been getting on my nerves lately)
She looks too much like Prentiss.

I think that you might be thinking of Robin Tenney, who plays Lisbon, the boss. I mean the redhead, Van Pelt.
Yes, I totally was. Today seems to be my day for being wrong on the internet.

She also looks too much like Kate from Castle. I have a hard enough time keeping everyone straight without all that.
Need more redheads.
