I have an uncle who has schizophrenia, so I know what it feels like to have a family member with this condition. He's very lovely.

JJ (and for that matter Spencer) WAS SO YOUNG-

Haaaha!ha!ha! XD

Brilliant as Gideon and as Saul in Homeland

Crazy how accurate they show Islam

and its stuff like this that has people believing "palestine" is a thing (hint: its not)

I miss these characters being together on Criminal Minds they are my favorite

This scene was so good that Mission Impossible ripped it off.

Just like Mission Impossible Fallout. Faking a terrorist attack to get information.

It's said that bilingualism is a reason for surprise in this country, of all countries.

Jason Gideon ❤

Gideon ❤

It’s not even the right number for the UK 😂😂😂

1) paranoid schizophrenia [a psychotic event] can happen to anyone, any age, any time, given the right trigger, madness is a destination anyone can be driven to 2) paranoid schizophrenia is not genetic, although any trauma your parents suffered growing up may be written into their dna, and that dna passed to you, most of the boomers in my country were beaten by loved ones & bmbd by nazis, as toddlers, most of them are traumatised 3) it is not a "life long" illness, a full recovery is possible, a life without meds is possible, as long as you practice self care, get good nutrition, exercise, sunlight, sleep, and avoid stress/triggers/trauma, and don't go around feeling sorry for yourself all the time, smile, be happy :)

The show wasn’t the same after Gideon’s character was out of the show.

I use a lot of pressure to write because the pens I grew up with were from the dollar store and you had to use them at the proper angle or else there would be no ink, and pressure or else the ink wouldn't come thru well enough. Also could not use them to write on a table, you had to have paper or something underneath for it to work perfectly. Pencils are the opposite, paper has to be in contact with a hard surface, and not too much pressure.

yes

Gideon and Reed were such an incredible team , early on they would go ahead of the rest of the team and practically solve the cases by themselves

Loved this episode. He played him so well.

this just goes to show you to always stay quiet. After all it is your right

This video clip here is Probably why Garcia is on that list in the first place .

Shows things like they are with the mid-east...

There's no need to "contort" Islam into an excuse for a life of violence, since the Quran EXPLICITLY COMMANDS VIOLENCE.

"They hurt me by existing..." Gideons reaction... so raw!!

Did the same trick on The Unit

Ok but what was the question he was supposed to ask?

My mind instantly came back to this episode when I saw this scene from Mission Impossible: Fallout. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eGPEfXqghp1pjcUsi=4nWD4BIMfR7ehCRX

I'm late, but I'd love to see Gideon and Rossi working together

The early episodes of Criminal Minds were the best.

Amen. Welcome to my world.

They hurt me by EXISTING If that's not hate i don't know what is

Criminal minds just wasn't the same after Mandy Patinkin left.

in all seriousness for a moment I can never for the life of me understand how someone who thinks they can solve world violence is by adding more bodies to the table. That is like the same thinking of "Oh yea let me solve forest fires by starting other forest fires for people to deal with it and let me make a point on it" I mean at that point it is no longer about who has a moral ground and just loud of bs at that point. To which now I can hardly care enough but have a bit of giggle at who think like that. Now that part aside and on point with the scene, I just love how the guy at the end moves his hand to his mouth going "Oh" that was straight the best "Oh I fuck up" moment in the history of acting Lol. It can be any more perfect than that, and Reid just casually answers "No" and walks off to do his job, I love it so much.

I have this quote tattooed on my arm in MGG's handwriting.

Gideon was the best. It’s a shame that the actor wanted nothing to do with the show ever again, I would’ve loved to have seen Gideon again. I really wish we could’ve seen Gideon and Rossi reunited.

True feminism

GOD Spencer and JJ were so young.

Great episode for Gideon, as well as an important one for showcasing newcomer Prentiss' skillset.

I often wondered how Gideon could beat an autistic savant like Reid at chess. The only possible explanation is that Gideon, as shown here, is the absolute master of mind games.

I just started watching this series the past few days and now on episode 22. I am trully shocked by the use of 'stupid' towards one of the team members. I mean... Everyone is so patient with Reid despite him putting himself in many dangerous situation for being rather naive (ex. The cult episode where he was sent by Morgan to leave but came back saying 'what you saying? There was nobody there.'). Gideon is particularly patient and acted as mentor so far to other members. That 'stupid' is so dismissive of whatever she has done. The worst thing is so far Gideon's interaction with Garcia is only 'Who is that?' after spending hours in her office. Like... It doesn't do his character any good. Is he going to get better in season 2? I hope so cause up till now his so called 'I need my team' is BS 😂 You can reprimand someone without calling them stupid. He really said 'How could YOU be that stupid.' instead of just saying 'That's a stupid thing to do especially for a person with your knowledge.' cause the second sentence points out that it's about her action, lowering her vigilance that is the problem, and not her in general. I think just simply calling someone stupid is emotional and from what I have watched, Gideon is rarely emotional. And the disgust on his face... Oh my lord... Is it even necessary? I understand that his character is supposed to be this cold, smart, direct authoritative figure but this line really just not doing it for me. I hope the next season they will work it out... Cause I have seen a different father/daughter combo in NCIS and I loved the relationship between Abby and Gibbs. A look of disappointment usually works better in a scene like this.

Man, both these actors are top notch. I can feel my blood boil listening to the terrorist and Gideon showing sorrow, concern, and disgust feels so real.

Chess scenes like this are so lazy. All they needed was 1 person to set the board and make it accurate. But instead you have scenes with pawns on the rback rank (impossible) or single mve "checkmates" where there is obviously no way to check mate from accross the board when most pieces are still playing. Theres 4 pieces on the board that could block or deflect whatever his move was. I understand its not a show about chess. Its a show about sexual sadists and what makes them horny. But it isnt rocket surgery to set a board up to be somewhat realistic.

George Bush is the biggest terorrist He sent thousands of innocent Americans to their deaths over a lie, and killed a million Iraqis

At least that police officer understands the truth about Islam and knows the terrorist doesnt represent Islam
