I may have mentioned this before, but Justin and I are BIG crime show watchers. There are SOOO many shows out there in TV land and, for some reason, it seems that not too many of you people out there watch Criminal Minds (Wed. 9pm CBS). We do. It has been one of our favorites since it first aired. There are just so many reasons we like it, but my favorite is probably all the quotes that they have as the BAU (Behavioral Analysis Unit) team leaves on their plane to solve a serious crime and as they come back after it's been solved. The quotes are just so thought provoking.Really, that's not the reason for the post though. Every week, as much as I love the suspense of the show, I get more and more disturbed by how sick our world can be, especially since I've had Aubrey and PERSONALIZE everything by thinking about her. I cover my eyes, tear up, and tell Justin that I just can't watch it anymore. The next week I watch it AGAIN! What is wrong with me?
This week, I literally cried. No tearing up...crying. The suspense is addicting, but the sickness of the people they depict is just awful. I had to just blog to try to calm my mind down. Next week, I may need to tune in again because this episode was a cliff hanger. Garcia got shot...how could this happen? Soon though, I'll hopefully learn that watching this show is too stress inducing and I'll pass. Or maybe the writers will just never stop striking and they'll solve my problem for me. Yikes...What to do?
Does anyone else out there in blogland watch Criminal Minds? What did you think of this episode?

OK. I feel the same way about Grey's Anatomy.
I just keep getting sucked in even though everyone on that show is totally messed up.
Their lives are just horrible and I keep watching even though it is more and more depressing every single week.
I do not watch that show. Can't handle it. Too realistic. I say pass!
I don't watch that show, but I do watch several episodes of Law and Order: SVU every day. I think in the first two weeks of Samuel's life, they decided to run EVERY SINGLE show about babies being starved, drowned, burned, or cut up and left in the sewer. One episode was even about a mother starving her baby to death because he wouldn't nurse well, but she refused to give him formula. Hit home because that was when Sam wasn't nursing well and I was so conflicted about giving him formula and Mark finally put his foot down and gave him a bottle. I've definetly shed some hardcore tears over those shows, yet for some sick reason I can't stop watching....
