Well, other bands know more than three chords. Your professional bands can play up to six, sometimes seven, completely different chords.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Dude, Emily Prentiss is one badass mofo. Really, really liked this episode, and where has Sebastien Roche' been all of my life?

Though I am still highly pissed off at the reason we are getting never-before-seen levels of Prentiss badass-ness.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

What was the line?

"I was aiming for his leg."

He achieves a head shot. So it's a 180 flip.

Oh, hah. I had picked up on the CM but forgot about the Firefly.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

"I was aiming for his leg."

I remember the reverse from Due South, which leads to Frasier adjusting Vecchio's gun sight.

Which now sounds really porny to me.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

(HEEE, Serenity shout-out.)

I was pointing and bouncing and too late realized I was the only one in the room who understood or would care about the reference.

where has Sebastien Roche' been all of my life?

Several years ago, he was in a terrific History Channel film called The Crossing about Washington's crossing of the Delaware, and I've loved him ever since. Isn't he amazing? When he showed up last night, I think I squealed in delight.

Monsieur Roche tweeted a shirtless pic of himself some short time back.

Oh, and I thought that last night's CM was really great. It hit on most of the points that this show does best: a pathetic unsub, female victims that fight back, family members who show the emotional impact of crime, traumatized children that are strong in their own right, and team members who connect with the people they encounter (not just Reid, but Rossi connecting with the estranged sister).

Oh, and Reid geeking out about Doctor Who!! As soon as Seaver mentioned flying around in a phone box, I just knew he was talking about the Doctor, and busted out laughing even before he mentioned "Bill and Ted's Bodacious Rip-off."

“Not dead yet!”

Oh, and Reid geeking out about Doctor Who!! As soon as Seaver mentioned flying around in a phone box, I just knew he was talking about the Doctor, and busted out laughing even before he mentioned "Bill and Ted's Bodacious Rip-off."

Hearing the word "bodacious" coming from Reid was so hilarious, I had to pause the Tivo for a few minutes of sheer unadulterated giggling.

Also, poor Seaver saying "Sorry... I asked."

But then seeing her playing games with Rossi killed me. Showing her the benefits to taking time away from the job.

ETA: Seaver's growing on me. They're not making her either a wunderkind or JJ's replacement and I like that they have her expressing bewilderment about how very much she has to learn that they're not teaching her at the academy.

Yeah, they're not making her into a Prentiss or JJ knock-off. I liked that she stayed behind at the car when they busted into the unsub's house. Reminded me of how Reid never went on raids in the first season.
