when Reid speculated that the unsub was eating the lips, Garcia complained about that visual imagery, and he responded, "You asked," all while munching on a muffin.

I had to hit pause on that because I was laughing so hard. While this was definitely Garcia's ep, the Reid moments were pretty stellar.

Oh, and a CM scheduling FYI: "The Uncanny Valley" is going to be on CBS the day before Thanksgiving, if you missed it before.

thank you. My nightmares were ceasing.

I just love the blonde diabetic woman--she, and the second blonde woman from last night's ep, are great examples of the really strong female victims that Criminal Minds specializes in.

I was recently watching "Legacy" from Season 2, the one with the housecleaner unsub who was taking Kansas City's street people and having them run the gauntlet he'd set up in an old meatpacking plant (an ep with one of my favorite cops of the week, the OCD detective who couldn't get any of his higher-ups to care that 60-some street people had just disappeared, so he went to the FBI instead), and that was an ep with a wonderfully strong victim.

The Luke Perry one was on last night! I haven't rewatched yet.

like _Open Season_ featuring Katie from Terriers! It was interesting to watch a hunted woman (literally) making strong, viable, choices and not being demonized for prioritizing her survivial over sentimentality.

Am catching up on Bones. I liked the Shakespearean interrogation on last week's ep. Sweets conversing in Elizabethan was very pleasant.

What L&O:Mothership episode was L&O:UK's Alesha adapted from, if any? Was one of the ADAs raped in the NY version?

I was trying to figure that out myself.

ita,

I didn't see the UK episode, but psychologist was raped in the NY version. None of the ADAs were raped, but one was stuffed in a car trunk and killed.
