Criminal Minds and Leverage (spoilers)

[sheryden]

I have to say first and foremost that I love David Eigenberg. Random, I know, but I've liked the actor for a long time. It was good to see him, and I like that the character had good instincts.

The unsub... I couldn't feel bad for him, really. The poor women and that boy. :/

Other than that, not a lot to say. It was a good case-of-the-week episode, and it felt kind of weird, since most of the episodes of late have been tied to a larger narrative. Even when they've been focused on a primary case, the larger issues were lurking in the background. I don't know how to reset my brain to cases-of-the-week anymore, lol.

By the way, speaking of recurring themes and subplots... I wonder if they ever plan to address Morgan's lady friend. They seem to have dropped that rather quickly.





Good solid episode. Loved learning a little more about Parker (aw, woobie). I'm wondering if the brother was her natural brother or a foster brother. I quite liked how the team assembled around her to support her. I also loved Hardison's urge to kill Rand for hurting Parker, as well as Eliot's outright but quiet offer to do so, lol.

Tara was smoking hot tonight when she was portraying the psychic.

Nate was on top of his game tonight. I tried to pay attention to whether he was drinking or not. I have a feeling that someone might get hurt or captured in the season finale (thus giving Sophie a reason to come back). I don't know if it'll have any connection to Nate's drinking, though. I just feel like we're heading toward something.

Loved Nate's interaction with Hardison (orange soda and gummi frogs, lol). We don't get to see good Hardison/Nate interaction that often.
