And messy facial hair, not the neatly trimmed goatee.
I like seeing Reid's haircut, combined with his glasses, in the beginning of S2 after Fisher King Part 2. For some reason, those big glasses really framed his face well and gave him added sexy geek points. We haven't seen him in glasses in a while, have we? I'm trying to remember if they've made an appearance after S2 or S3.
Now that I've got all four seasons on dvd (thank you, Amazon!), I spent tonight watching several eps with commentary from S1 and 2. The best one is Revelations (helps when you have MGG as one of the commentators), followed by Bernero and his daughter (who played Rebecca Bryant as well as having been the show's main researcher since the beginning) who are entertaining in their own right on Fisher King Part 2.
Speaking of the Fisher King, the commentary on Part 2 from the S2 dvds amused me when Bernero said that they (the show runners and writers) figured that setting up all the clues from S1 would keep the fans occupied until the show started up again in September. Then they were floored when the online fandom had figured everything out within a week of Part 1's broadcast. He said never underestimated the ability of the fandom to figure things out again.
Nothing
keeps the fans occupied except for unanswerable questions. Silly rabbit.
The cast and crew are pretty good to fandom. The Criminal Minds Fanatic blog gets plenty of official interaction, plus most of the cast tweets regularly. Bless.
Wow, there are some really great guest stars in season 4 - Luke Perry, Jason Alexander, Mitch Pileggi, Gina Torres.
I haven't seen the Wil Wheaton one yet, but I was totally convinced that he was Viper (the sleazy guy who taught guys to pick up women) in 52 Pickup.
I just watched Normal and that one broke me. Season 4 is kicking some serious ass so far!
Hah! I was just on Netflix and looked up CM season 5 and they recommended it to me "based on your interest in The Big Bang Theory: Season 2 and The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" Um.... okay.

Viper is played by Currie Graham who, along with Garrett Dillahunt (who you'll see as a superawesome creepy villain in the S4 ender) is one of my favorite underrated character actors. He was in a S2 ep of The Mentalist and had better chemistry with Simon Baker than Robin Tunney.
OMG, 100 is giving me allergies!
Currie Graham is always awesome. And I find him sexy... although I am not sure he is a universal taste.
OK, I'm confused about the Director's behavior. She seemed to be grilling the team to hang Hotch, but then in the last scene she's all emotional - for her-and concilliatory. WTF?
Quester, I've read reads of the episodes that say she was just making them come up with a solid defense, or that she changes her mind over the course of the interrogations. I'm undecided.
Well, I haven't really watched the episodes she was in in their entirety so I don't have a read on her character. It just seemed like the interrogation scenes were red herrings.
