YES! Paget is on her way back too!

I'm glad the team is back in order. Criminal Minds is one of the few procedures I follow.

Yay to Paget being back too!

I was happy to see JJ back in the finale (great shot of her legs! LOL) but I wish they didn't show AJ's name in the credits because that ruin the surprise (I didn't think she would be back until next season).

Man this season sucked big time - I think there was only one arc story (Prentiss' exit). And the individual episodes weren't interesting either.

You know, the show is going into its 7th season - they could afford to do more story arcs and character based stuff. I hope the new showrunner (Erica Messer) will make next season good.

I've never understood why we didn't see more of their lives outside the BAU. I mean we got glimpses here and there and of course the big arc with the Reaper (which I hated!!) killing Hotch's wife, but we've very rarely seen what they do when they leave work.

One of the problems with showing their outside lives is that the show needs to be consistent and I don't think they're very good at that. When Prentiss came on she was basically a mole reporting to Strauss because she wanted a job with the BAU but last season we find out she was a super deep cover agent for Interpol. Then there's Hotch's brother who we saw once and never heard from again even after his wife was murdered. We have Reid's magically disappearing headaches from this season which I guess got cured by the same thing that got rid of his Dilaudid addiction.

CM is my favorite procedural (I consider L&O:SVU a comedy now) but they suck at continuity.

And yes, big yay for the return of Paget!

In all honestly, people in that line of work probably don't have much of a personal life. It looks like we are getting a little of it this especially, so far mostly with Rossi. We have seen his house twice and now he is going to have to deal with his ex-wife and her ALS. That will bring up a whole issue because if he follows her wishes to not let her suffer after a certain point.

Paget is leaving again....this time by her own accord: http://www.tvline.com/2012/02/criminal-minds-paget-brewster-leaving/

Too bad! I'm never gonna get my Emily and Derek hot sex! I am so damn unlucky in the swirl department. No Carly/Shawn and now this?! WTF! I'm gonna cry!

Someone really should of told Kim Wayans to reign it in for tonight's episode.

Poor Reid. I wondered if they killed the character off because they didn't think she would be available long term, since she was a regular on Leverage, than they cancelled that show.

I wish Reid would have gotten killed. Can't stand him, and I think he needs to get a hair cut.

But I'm super happy they didn't cop out and allow the gf to survive. The ending was brilliant!

Bye CM! So [!@#$%^&*] done! Second consecutive year you chose to squander two hours of television, and to kill off Strauss?! Not necessary! Bastards!

Off the DVR, and I'm gonna have to find another way to get my Shemar fix! This show has been garbage for far too long!!!!!

I rage quit CM earlier this season after one of the more torture porn intensive episodes. This show has been going downhill ever since the Foyet episodes.

This was my last season too. The case-of-the-week episodes weren't memorable and the "season arc" didn't live up. It's been like that for a couple of seasons now.

I quickly fell of the "!@#$%^&*] CM" wagon, but I have to say that this was quite a premier. The ending was a very nice twist with a follow up this week. Twins! I will watch Wednesday and then take it week by week.

Shemar is just so damn beautiful! I hope to see him running soon with a gun in hand (wish we could find a reason to have him on horseback with a rifle - wonder who I can contact about that).
