Let's make it a double.

Well, it's certainly been a while! I blame work, uni, tumblr and more work. Life's been so damn hectic that I didn't even have the time to recap the previous Criminal Minds episode. So, here it is, in all its glory.

( Criminal Minds 7x18 - The one in which JJ habla español. )

I love the accents the guy did but I think some of them were quite off. lol. but he did very well in general. I feel so proud that I recognize the different english accents. I've seen too much brit tv clearly. xD I wish he did eastern european too but I love the russian especially. lol had to mention vodka eh?xD

It's my favourite pastime, trying to fake accents. Yes, I lead a very boring life.

This show really does seem to have run out of steam. I think it's time they think about cutting their loses and putting an end to it or totally reinventing the format and giving us big arcs and personal growth (and an Emily/JJ romance, of course).

I was almost afraid my eyes would roll out of their sockets at the last scene from the nicotine devil wives episode.

It's such a shame too, because Erica Messer had a wonderful opportunity to reinvent te show a little bit. Such a missed opportunity.

It's not like they didn't have good guests.. I don't get it. Is it just me or was everyone else expecying something more EPIC! from Gallner and Martin? It's not like they haven't done creepy before. Althpugh Martin's vision did give me a good old fashioned Crimial Minds shiver. Gallner played a shooter in Cold Case and victim in Nightmare on Elm Street. He KNOWS how to do this. It's like seeing Anthony Hopkins play a run of the mill murderer after seeing him be Lecter. And the same goes for the cast, they know what to do but the plots just suck. Like they mention girls night and salsa dancing AND DON'T SHOW IT? No wonder Paget wants to leave. They should have an episode on Emily and JJ taking down an evil nun. Tierra de Lobos and Leverage both probe those always work plot wise.

Yeah, it just felt like they tried too much. The whole thing, what with the mythology and historical aspect of the episode, could've been so good, but they completely blew it. The show's a sinking ship, I'm afraid.

I was a bit disturbed by the whole arm choppy thing. Wasn't that crazy bitch Drusilla from Buffy?

Emily did look quite fetch in her trench coat. That's about all I can say about the devil episode...

lysachan April 7 2012, 15:24:02 UTC

The arm thing was the grossest thing about the episode. Ugh. And yeah, it was Drusilla! She hasn't come a long way, heh.

That kid is my hero. I'm so bad at accents, it's actually a running joke for some of my friends. The only two I can do for a moment are generic American, or South African (but only if I've just watched District 9 lol).

lysachan April 7 2012, 15:25:10 UTC

I can usually do different words and short phrases in different accents, but I need to listen to them a whole lot before trying. Haha, I totally want to hear you doing accents now :D

quew April 23 2012, 21:15:24 UTC

Oh, lmao, you really don't. They all come out slightly Jamaican or just...slightly wrong...But I'll give it a go if we ever go out for that drink (because I'll be needing a few to attempt any!) :D
