I like Alex; I'm tickled to see mature individuals instead of sweet young things added to the team. Beth has to go to NY b/c the actress picked up a full-time gig on "Scandals." I'm glad they arranged to keep the relationship going. Hotchner needs to smile more!

I say they need someone other than the new woman on the team they need someone with a personality, to replace Prentiss

Don't like the new gal. she just doesn't seem to fit. Thomas Gibson has the most beautiful smile and speaking voice on TV. Wish we could see him smile more. I know that is hard with the stories but maybe on the plane home he could talk and laugh once in awhile???? I like Morgan and Garcia's way of coping

I can't stand the new character. I hope they kill her off at the end of the season.

The thing that bothers me with Blake is that she seems to bring nothing new to the team. JJ used to just be liaison, but now she's in the field and they can all profile, so why did Emily need to be replaced? Did they just need another traveling woman on the squad?

There was a Jaime Lee Curtis/NCIS situation? I did not know that I know there was a situation between Pauly and and NCIS but I hear Curtis was so good she bringing brought back in season 10.
Does anyone think Alex was the girl Ried was talking about last season

I'm sort of neutral on the new character, I guess it needs time, I just hope she doesn't turn out to be the Jaime Lee Curtis/NCIS situation. I will say that I was kind of sad to see Hotch's lady friend make moves to leave for a new job. It was so long since he was happy. The long distance thing with his schedule (he should know better) I think will be a disaster. With the people who have left CM, I got to say that the core for me are Garcia, JJ, Hotch, Reid, Rossi and Morgan. Don't miss Gideon AT ALL, maybe miss Emily a little. This show has stood the test of time because these guys do gruesome work and still remain focused and sane, I have always loved the non-delivery foreplay.
Play on!

Love this show, the review, and agree with the comments. Miss Emily a lot , but Alex is growing on me, too. Really like Garcia, but feel the flirty "love" talk with Morgan was better when their conversations were not on speakerphone so others nearby can hear, although they are completely innocent and only flirty. Even Hochner is accepting it, but does border on inappropriate office sexual banter. It's cute and wouldn't want the banter gone, but when on speaker, not only the team hears it, but so does the other first responders and victim families in hearing distance. Morgan use to answer a phone call warning her she's on speaker and she would tone it down, but not much lately.

Alex has grown on me these past few episodes, she's a fresh face and i loved the joke about Reid near the beginning. Glad that we didn't know who our Unsub was this week for a change. Can't wait for next week's :)

I have been watching CM from the very beginning and for some reason find Blake the hardest new team member to accept. I have been giving Blake the benefit of the doubt, however I am having a hard time warming up to her character and seeing her fit into the team. I will continue to watch and hopefully will accept Alex as part of the team soon.
