Why I Do Not Read the Jacket Copy, #446

"Joining them this season is Emily Prentiss (Paget Brewster), who quickly learns there's nothing these agents would rather do than profile murderers and put them away!" -- the DVD box for my new Season 2 Criminal Minds DVDs

Now tell me honestly: isn't that on the list of lamest things ever? Seriously. It makes it sound like Mandy Patinkin is skipping around the plane singing, "We're gonna get a murderer, we're gonna get a murderer, wheeeee!"

Having tried to write synopses (shudder), I have some sympathy for the folks whose job it is to write these little thumbnails, but for heaven's sake.

Okay, you make it rational *and* sexy. :)

"New team member Emily Prentiss (Paget Brewster) joins the team in their single-minded dedication to profiling and capturing murderers. And she wears awesome sweaters and reads Vonnegut."

Now it's sexy.
