criminal minds rossi tv
Also, I usually really like Virgil Williams' work, but I am dissapoint that, in what seems to me a very un-Criminal-Minds-ish element, the prostitutes in "The Apprentice" were treated as disposable, while the nice girl with a job in a pet store got rescued. And none of the women demonstrated the kind of agency I'm used to seeing in the show.

This season is not standing out for me, so far. The gore level seems to be higher, and the humaneness/agency seems to be lacking.

Alas.

I found The Apprentice disappointing not just because of the prostitutes' treatment by the writers, but by the fact that Toby dying in a previous season would have felt like a really awful loss, would have been -delivered- as a really awful loss - but in this episode, it just sort of happened? And his mentor/killer felt like a non-entity character-wise, where I would have loved to see some exploration of the emotion and connection there. I mean, if you're going to beat us over the head with a frankly tinny Morgan/Reid parallel, at least give us some meat to dig into on the dark side of the mirror.

Yes.

I kept wanting it to be "Sex Birth Death." And it wasn't.
