I just talked to my mom for the first time in like two weeks and know that I sounded incredibly apathetic and unenegertic and sad (partially because I’m waiting on my covid test, partially cause of school, partially cause I hate myself, partially cause I’m incredibly lonely) and she goes “well, you sound good”
I started criminal minds because it looked kinda cool and I really loved the variety of situations but it’s only season 2 and I’ve now realized I’m here only for the Spencer Reid storyline
the folks over at Criminal Minds really have their shit together
on the air for 13 SEASONS and counting, because they know that all they gotta do to maintain viewership is give the audience gratuitous Spencer Reid whump at steadily increasing levels of severity
i think every time matthew gray gubler’s voice cracks on camera, i grow a new ovary, and their contracts get renewed
i am really really lucky i never kept up with this show, because if i did, hooo boy, i’d be in deep
this doe-eyed white boy with an obscenely vulnerable-sounding voice?? has a traumatic childhood? daddy issues?? gets literally tortured by an unsub?? gets addicted to heroin? has symptoms of psychosis?? gets addicted to heroin AGAIN?? goes to a hypnotherapist to have MORE traumatic flashbacks to his childhood?
and this season he’s like, going to prison?? or something?????
like, this show is good i guess, but the only reason it’s still on the air after THIRTEEN SEASONS is because matthew gray gubler is so good at looking Pretty and Sad and Vulnerable that he makes even jaded butch folks want to be maternal
tl;dr good on criminal minds for cracking the “look i just want to watch a sad boy be sad” audience demographic, it’s me, i am the demographic
