Why I Do Not Read the Jacket Copy, #446

[mrissa]

"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.

I hate to say this, but what hobbies? Other than reading or doing magic tricks (if you're Reid), or JJ boinking that dude, they don't seem to have personal lives so much.

I have not gotten to JJ and any dude yet. But Morgan dates a lot, Hotch is married with a kid and really seems to like house chores, JJ collects butterflies, Gideon is a birder and enjoys cooking and has a woman in his life who is freaked out by receiving heads in the mail....
