I did not see "Masquerade" tonight because I was watch the Emmys. Is it from the latest season? I haven't seen all of those. I didn't get hooked on the show until a couple of months ago.
eta: I've also never seen "Uncanny Valley".
You always think harder is better. Maybe next time I patrol, I should carry bricks and use a stake made out of butter.

“Not dead yet!”
I think Kathy means "Masterpiece" which is the S4 episode featuring Jason Alexander as the UnSub. Wonderful episode.

Oh, yes, I've seen that one a couple of times.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I came to CM thinking of Mandy as Inigo Montoya, so there was nothing but love.
Gone now.
I agree with the assessment of ZenKitty. He was just too good and too great and too aware of it all. And then the whole leaving thing just made it ten times worse.

bt mentioning his favorite (so far) ep as LDSK made me look at my favorite eps. I think my favorite S1 ep is Derailed, with LDSK being a close second and Riding the Lightning third. S2 is Revelations, followed closely by Ashes and Dust and North Mammon (and Sex, Birth, Death an Honorable Mention). S3 is Seven Seconds, then Elephant's Memory, Penelope, and Tabula Rasa.
For me, S4 is my favorite in the number of really strong eps. Instincts/Memoriam are tied for first, then Minimal Loss, Normal, and Amplification gets the Honorable Mention.
S5 I haven't seen often enough (yet), so I'll reserve judgment there. But, I do love both Uncanny Valley and 100, as well as The Internet Is Forever.

Season 1:
- The Tribe
- LDSK
- Riding The Lightning
Season 2:
- Empty Planet
- Lessons Learned
- Ashes & Dust
Season 3:
- Seven Seconds
- Lucky/Penelope (cheating, I know)
- Tabula Rasa
Season 4:
- Mayhem
- Minimal Loss
- To Hell...And Back
Season 5:
- 100
- Uncanny Valley
- Exit Wounds
I feel bad for leaving out Profiler, Profiled and Revelations, but I pretty much stand by those choices (they're in airing order, not preference order (except for The Tribe, which is just the best)).

My list is definitely biased in favor of Reid (as if you didn't notice!), otherwise I would definitely have put The Tribe higher up on my list. I think the Hotch/Blackwolf vs. Mansonesque Family showdown at the end is my favorite action sequence in the entire series.
ETA: For me, as much as I love the Reid monologue at the end of Derailed, that ep is all about the unsub. Ted Bryar is so well portrayed, and so pathetic for all that he is "whacked out of his mind" (as the drunk kid says), that he steals the entire show.

Blackwolf is my favourite local LEO, I think. The LA guy played by Ian Anthony Dale is second, and Gina Torres is third.
