I'm dvring it, but mostly because of Jeanine Garofalo than anyone else. Unless it grabs me right away, I'll give it a few eps and nothing more.
You're nice, and you're funny and you don't smoke, and okay, werewolf, but that's not all the time. I mean, three days out of the month, I'm not much fun to be around, either.

I'm giving it a shot. I wasn't terribly impressed with them in the teaser episode last season, but we'll see.

Pilots (in this case teaser eps) almost always suck donkey balls, so I'll give it a go. Besides, I don't have anything else to watch at ten other than to switch over to CM reruns on Ion.

I haven't watched my dvr'd of CM:SB, but last night's original recipe show was boring!! Ugh, I just really did not like it at all.

SB threw me out of the story almost from the beginning because of the sloppy research. It was supposed to be Cleveland, yet the suburban landscape they showed had dusty mountains in the background. They also had the liaison be from the Cleveland PD-- Cleveland is like LA-- the city proper is actually small and in Cleveland's case, very urban. Any suburban area like what they were in would be in its own city and would have its own police department.
I know I know this only because I lived in the Cleveland area for ten years, but I'm accustomed to the franchise being a little more careful with details like that. Like in "A Thousand Words..." last season, they set it just outside Tallahassee and the roads they referenced were correct for the area they were talking about and even the outdoor scenes showed large oaks with Spanish moss draped over them-- totally apropos.
I'll still give it a go for a while longer though.

I really dislike the turn CM is taking this season - and what's developing into a long-running story about Prentiss and her past irks me. But I hated the whole Hotch/Reaper storyline and it looks like this is going to hit me the same way.
The CM spin-off ... I'm not sure about it. I'll give it a few episodes. I was struck by how much ... rougher, I suppose, the cast and sets appear. The main CM people seem sleeker, more professional, where this bunch runs around in jeans and scuffed-up leather jackets.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I loved the Reaper storyline, and in fact, can tie my disappointment in CM with the end of it.
They're being too mysterious about Prentiss, and knowing it's laying the ground for...what it's laying the ground for doesn't make me like it any more.
