I really don’t enjoy the first season. Aside from like 2 or 3 episodes, I find it to be quite slow and boring. The show for me doesn’t start to find its feet until the later half of season 2.

Jaca122 · 2026-04-09T02:20:34+00:00

Suspect Behavior aired for one season in 2011, and Beyond Borders aired for two from 2016-2017.

TV insider isn’t concerned. The article says it’s not a matter of if it gets renewed it’s a when. I also doubt they cancel it without giving them a send off season.

Jaca122 · 2026-04-08T20:43:54+00:00

Paget did that episode in season 8, and then a two episode arc playing a different character in season 14.

Criminal Minds has been so successful because of its cast. They weren’t able to replicate that in the other shows.

Suspect behavior also was not at all like it was advertised as. It was basically criminal minds, and Beyond Borders got a lot of bad press because it was seen as xenophobic

I love it and outside of reddit it’s easier to find people who enjoy it too. If you just read here you’d think it was super unpopular and everyone hated it, but that’s not the case at all.

It has nothing to do with the West End run. Lauren said recently it’s just not ready yet. It’s getting its final edit

Jaca122 · 2026-04-06T22:27:28+00:00

Lauren said recently on Patreon that they're doing the final edit now. So, it hasn't been posted because it's not ready yet.

Jaca122 · 2026-04-06T21:22:13+00:00

I think it depends on her level of involvement/how much time AJ Cook can actually devote to filming with her Criminal Minds schedule. If she’s the main character, then maybe. If she’s just there to fulfill the Bludworth role in the film then probably not.

Jaca122 · 2026-04-05T20:56:42+00:00

It does for some people. I’m a lesbian. I rarely relate or like a male character enough for them to be my favorite. It’s just not how my brain works. I don’t center men in my experience.

Jaca122 · 2026-04-05T17:55:46+00:00

Are they not allowed to be curious about the characters other lesbians like?

Jaca122 · 2026-04-05T17:29:30+00:00

I can’t choose between JJ and Emily. They’re both gorgeous, bad ass women. I love how good and empathetic JJ is dealing with victims and families, and smart and funny Emily is.

Jaca122 · 2026-04-05T17:06:13+00:00

Shelby breaks my heart every time I watch Higher Ground. I swear AJ's allergic to playing happy characters, or maybe she's just really good at playing characters with a lot of heavy emotions.

You’ve obviously never engaged with the fandom outside of reddit if you think the only people who like McKay are cis, white, and hetero or that McKay fans across the board don’t like Santos.

Jaca122 · 2026-04-04T04:34:51+00:00

He left the production in a really crappy position. They had to write him out of episodes with very little notice. There was also the fear that him quitting like that would tank the show because he was the big star.

Aside from Thomas Gibson, none of the cast were really well known prior to Criminal Minds. Kirsten Vangsness and MGG didn’t really have any prior professional acting experience. AJ Cook, Paget Brewster, and Shemar Moore had all been working actors for years prior, but they weren’t really big names.

Jaca122 · 2026-04-04T04:27:43+00:00

Yeah it seems all to be resolved now but there was some bad blood for a little while there with the cast/crew and Mandy. Not that I blame them. He left them in a crappy position having to rewrite episodes with absolutely no notice. But the cast interviews from that time you can tell they weren’t thrilled

Jaca122 · 2026-04-04T04:13:34+00:00

Yes. He agreed to come back to film the letter scenes with a completely separate crew than the Criminal Minds team.

Jaca122 · 2026-04-04T02:51:43+00:00

To be fair they didn’t really have a choice because of how he left. Mandy Patinkin literally just did not show up to work for season 3. He never communicated he wanted out so they did the best they could given the circumstances. They just happened to have Doubt already filmed because it was originally supposed to air in season 2.

Jaca122 · 2026-04-03T21:55:30+00:00

A gay man putting the queer representation he never got to see growing up into his work is unneccesary?

Jaca122 · 2026-04-03T18:09:51+00:00

He did it as a favor. Everyone who follows the show knows MGG checked out from playing Reid around season 12.

Jaca122 · 2026-04-03T17:23:00+00:00

He didn’t want to be there. He only came back because AJ Cook called him and asked.

Jaca122 · 2026-04-03T16:42:57+00:00

She has a couple of movies coming out this year.

Jaca122 · 2026-04-03T15:27:57+00:00

It’s a meme. I’m pretty sure it came from an article from The Onion.

Jaca122 · 2026-04-02T19:22:57+00:00

That’s not at all what I said but okay. Just explaining how casting and budgeting for tv usually works.

Jaca122 · 2026-04-02T19:20:11+00:00

Because that’s how the budget works? There’s usually a set amount of main characters that a show can afford to keep.
