Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

When someone here gets a chance, could you please explain WTF?

Someone is after the other NCIS team from last season. They tried to kill two of them and blame it on Tony. Then they tried to take out Tony too, but for some unknown reason did not just take him out when he was with Kate's sister. The blonde from the other team got away. And that guy who was with the Secretary of the Navy was working with the conspirators. I think. That's all I got, and I am guessing that the bigger conspiracy will remain a mystery for a good part of the season. It was a very convoluted episode to start the season on. t still sucks at character's names

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Dedication:

To Captain Roy Montgomery, NYPD.
He made a stand and taught me all I need to know about bravery and character.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Did anyone watch Harry's Law last night? It feels like a completely different show with the same characters; very weird.

ETA: They completely switched the tone from an Ally McBeal style show to a The Practice style show.

Criminal Minds made me clap my hands with delight. Love the team being back together! Love the whole interview thing tying the show together (very "100" without the accompanying tragedy)! Love the requisite Reid smackdown of the interviewer ("Calm down, Agent." "This is calm, and it's Doctor.")!

Lingering questions:

  • Morgan has problems with both Emily and Hotch--I didn't see that coming (I was expecting him to have issues with Emily, not Hotch).

  • Will JJ meld seamlessly into a profiler, or will she mess up eventually?

  • And the one with the most potential: will Reid repress his abandonment issues with Emily leaving until it shows up in a future ep to bite the entire team on the ass?

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

Morgan has problems with both Emily and Hotch--I didn't see that coming (I was expecting him to have issues with Emily, not Hotch).

I thought that Morgan would forgive Emily before he forgave Hotch. Emily was out of it, and had just been "killed", he could understand her process. He would not forgive Hotch not trusting him/the team. Even if they waited until after the funeral to make their grief look real, the team could have been told.

EW did an interview with the new CM showrunner after last night's ep.

Oh, and another question:

  • So, Reid has been on sabbatical this summer? What's he been doing?

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

sigh ... I wasn't getting CBS clearly last night - I popped in every so often so I got the gist of what was going on, but missed a lot of the details.

Not really - it seemed to be mostly setting up for the new season.

Although ... what happened to the little blonde who was supposed to be JJ's "replacement"?
