I also do not want Hotch to get a romance since I think his character is also more complex than this. We already had the Hotch & Haley storyline. A romance is not creative! I fear though that Hotch will be in a romance sometime this season since Messer hinted at this. I am shocked and disappointed that the writers will take this route. I miss the old Criminal Minds.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8766173897342994367.post-14444411103252807282011-09-23T14:08:35.771-04:002011-09-23T14:08:35.771-04:00And I for one hope the romance story won't con...And I for one hope the romance story won't concern Reid. There are much more interesting things to show about that character than a romance.<br />Let him shine with his brain, let him be the genius who solves puzzles and riddles, let him outsmart everyone, let him become the part time professor MGG wants him to be (science professor - mathematics, chemistry or engineering would work very well for him).<br />He's, by far, the smartest member of the team (there's no competition), he's in a league of his own. I would love to see his screen time emphasizing that very essential aspect of the character.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8766173897342994367.post-81601185537502386322011-09-23T01:42:01.826-04:002011-09-23T01:42:01.826-04:00I liked episode one of Season 7, but I am a bit co...I liked episode one of Season 7, but I am a bit concerned about the rest of the season when I read this EW interview. I know that most people will disagree with me, but I DO NOT want a Hotch romance this season. In this interview it APPEARS that Messer strongly hinted at a Hotch romance when she said that Hotch needs to smile this season & let go of Haley's death(and we will see Hotch in a new light). I hope I am wrong, but unfortunately I do not think that I am. Also, Thomas Gibson has stated he hopes to see this happen. I am NOT IMPRESSED with a romance story line for Hotch. Maybe in the last few episodes of the series but not this season! In my opinion, the writers could deal with Hotch coping with Haley's death in a MUCH MORE CREATIVE way. I think that romances take away from the show. I agree with Shemar Moore when he said that his character did not have time for romances this season! I especially do not want Hotch to have a romance yet. I want to see more profiling & team interaction not romantic stories. I can watch any other show if I want to see romances. We have enough of that with JJ & Will/ Garcia & Kevin. I liked Criminal Minds because it focused on profiling & some information about each agent but did not delve too much into romances for the characters. I want to learn more about why Hotch is so serious & dedicated to his work not see him in another relationship!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
