Criminal Minds

Ok, I'm many many years behind here, but have only recently discovered Criminal Minds.

I've been watching it on Sky Living and am really rather enjoying it :)

However, I wondered if someone could tell me what 'un sub' is short for? I'm sure it's a stupid question Blush but if I can't use the anonymity of t'interweb to educate myself in such matters....

Thanks Grin

I might have to get the whole box set as I only started watching it properly last year. DOn;t even know the characters names that well either.

Reid is a god...I love a good nerd...and when he grew his hair, oh it was all too much!

I was pissed Gideon left, I cried (and still do) at that death row episode. Cried over Hotch's wife too.

Fact: When Spencer was on crutches, he really WAS on crutches.

Useless information alert. I'm a nerd also.

He damaged his knee going out drinking with the other two actors from 500 days of summer - they were filming it as a DVD extra so you can go on YouTube and hear the moment it broke and see him trouserless being treated in A&E

'squashedbanana' thats the best episode they have ever done. I cried like a babyBlush

jaquelinehyde · 16/04/2012 19:53

Oh God I love this programme. Discovered it a month or so ago and have been catching up with it on Living (2 episodes a day at the moment) I hate, hate, hate how they miss a few episodes out and assure you sky+ will pick them up when they play them after the watershed...BUT THEY DON'T Angry

Currently just starting season 6 and I have about 6 episodes recorded and then the 2 episodes a day this week, I am well and truely plowing through this.

Any idea what season is the most current?

Is season 7 the most recent one?

I've just found that it's starting season 1 episode 1 later this week and I'm going to go through and make sure I find all the episodes, record them all and then just delete the ones I have watched. Since I'm only on season 2 this should hopefully allow me to get the episodes to fill in the gaps . This is also good as I missed the start of season 1 when I started watching it.

I have to say though - I had no idea Reid was so popular!!

Me neither! I wonder if this thread will end up like those in Sleb Twaddle, a big tribute to MGG...Smile

Oh the death row one is brilliant and so moving.

DH is away at the moment and the DDs are in bed but I can't watch CM alone, I get too scared.

I do get fed up that every time theres a child involved, JJ has to get over involved and unprofessional because she's a mother. I think they milked it a bit.

CiderwithBuda · 17/04/2012 08:31

Ooh season 1 episode 1??? Yes! Will get recording! Thanks Biscuitsandtea!

RedHotPokers · 17/04/2012 08:40

I live cm and mgg! Have watched every episode.

Does anyone else find morgans overacting character unintentionally hilarious. And the quote they always do at the beginning!

RedHotPokers · 17/04/2012 08:41

Love not live!

A few years ago I discovered Criminal Minds on a business trip to the US and couldn't get Morgan's hot bod out of mind so tracked it down here Grin. Thankfully dh loves the programme and just rolls his eyes as I drool over Morgan. What he doesn't know is that since Spencer had his haircut in Season 5 that I have had a bit of a thing for him too Grin. Sigh.

Ah, so someone else has noticed Morgan then Wink. I'm now looking forward to getting to season 5 for Spencer's hair Grin

ooh i LOVE morgan Grin i love criminal minds, i think season 7 is the most up to date where the team (apart from a few of them) think the girl with black hair is dead, prentice? only really she is undercover.

anyway tis fab but it scares me shitless sometimes as well!

doihavetonamechange · 17/04/2012 10:50

can someone tell me more about CEX, I love it but only have freeview (I am sad like that), so can I buy Criminal Minds 1-6, watch it all, then sell it back to them at a guarenteed price, is that how it works?

doihavetonamechange · 17/04/2012 10:50

I've never heard of that CEX place before, but it looks rather clever!

I don't know whether they would guarantee the resale price though when you buy it - presumably the prices could go up or down depending on demand etc? But it looks like a good price though compared to what I've given stuff away for sold things for on eBay.

Also I'm not sure how they'd deal with the condition of a resale thing? I mean if you've bought it and watched it once it probably won't be in bad nick but surely they must have some sort of control over quality?

I'd be interested to know more though if someone clever comes along who knows about these sorts of things?

Ha ha, just you-tubed for spencer in season 5 and was thinking Hmm 'his hair looks even longer' but then found a clip from later in the season! I like the short hair! Grin and when Hotch says 'you join a boy band?' Grin

I will admit that I have a Youtube playlist filled with all my favourite bits of CM!

thefroggy · 17/04/2012 18:37

Ooh trouserless? {faints}

BrandyAlexander · 17/04/2012 20:18

Morgan all miiiine! Grin. God I can't believe I knew it was season 5 Blush

PersonalClown · 18/04/2012 00:08

If you are a Morgan fan, then the next episode will make you hurt for him.
I will admit a shed a tear or 2.

BrandyAlexander · 18/04/2012 08:08

Oooh look forward to it already!! Thank you! They did go through a phrase of every episode being really gruesome but seem to have pared it back a bit now and have more balance and have more sensitive story lines.

KellyKettle · 18/04/2012 11:45

Ooh next episode as in the 2nd part of the Prentiss/Doyle one?

I love Morgan - beautiful face - but I do chuckle at his relationship with Garcia "Hey Baby gurrrrl, you know I love you?". They're amazingly unprofessional at times

MrsDmitriTippensKrushnic · 18/04/2012 12:04

No, I think she means the next one in S7 (one that was on last week in the US?)
