Hopefully, next season they will get off of the "show the unsub" schtick. We don't like that. I think that may be why Suspect Behavior didn't do well, the shows were too similar.

They were too similar and on top of that, SB really struggled to find its identity. It improved once they had Cooper quit mumbling to himself and they quit insisting on putting the team in bombed-out crackhouse dives because they're So Rebellious and Not Like the Others, but it still never really gelled.

It's a shame because Rawson actually kind of grew on me and I liked what little of his backstory we got. Prophet could've been a fascinating character as well, but they handled him with a two-by-four too early and then left it in the dust. Kind of like what they did with a lot of the storylines on Original Recipe as well-- the much vaunted season of secrets and the only one that truly played out was Emily's and that was only by necessity.

Well, that was a fairly terrible CM episode-- worse still that it was the finale. This whole season had some massive bad juju around it-- hopefully, everything gets back in gear for next season.

It fits in with CM's having not-so-good season finales. Fisher King Pt. 1 was really overshadowed by Pt. 2, I hated No Way Out Pt. 2 (the Evilution of Frank--really, writers??), Lo-Fi was meh at best, To Hell...And Back wasn't bad as a 2-parter, but overall not one of my favorites, and I really did not like the S5 finale with Tim Curry at all. This one went on my "meh" pile, along with most of the season. Looking back, my only keeper was Corazon, although Coda was a decent ep.

Hopefully, next season they will get off of the "show the unsub" schtick. We don't like that.

This. So much this.

ETA: I did like seeing the reappearance of Kevin Lynch. Nice to see NB out of rehab (again).

but can someone tell his to stop styling his hair with Crisco?

Yeah, the grease was a bit much. Interesting to see the grey at his temples, though

I am in the middle of Castle, and Holy Shit!!!!

And now I am at the end of Castle and seriously- what a good little show! Holy HSQ! It seems like a little episodic procedural crowd-pleaser, but man, that was seriously arc-driven and good. And Ryan and Esposito!!!!!

I was gonna say, you don't even know the half of it, but now you do. And, yeah, for a "light weight" show, they definitely have brought the gravitas.

Isn't it a bit disappointing if that was the hookup, offscreen, almost X-Files retro style?

I don't think Bones is subtle enough for that to have been the hookup.

Guess I was wrong. Huh.

I'm wondering how far along she can be, but I knew they'd have to come up with something to explain the actress' pregnancy.
