"If you think you can find a better person for the team, then good luck." The only one that ever replaced Hotch, was already on the team. And Prentiss does a damn good job. Not just because she's an excellent profiler, but because, like Hotch, she knows this team.

I’m sorry she was no hitch it was kinda boring

Same here.

[@TrevorMoses312]

Meanwhile Strauss is an ineffective boss who sadly is a drunkard and later gets killed by The Replicator.

[@gillesnotard69]

I prefer her being an ineffective boss than Barnes dismantling the BAU

[@danielhaire6677]

@@gillesnotard69 Well, Barnes got hers in the end.

[@neriwest3161]

I started watching the show for Reid but along the way Hotch wormed his way into my heart. And I stopped watching when Hotch departed. It was never the same for me.

[@cindy2370]

I love the court scene so much. Not only was that attorney dealing with a former attorney, but also and more importantly, a fantastic profiler. He was not prepared when he challenged Hotch, and what a stupid mistake he made 😂. I love Hotch. He is/was the best character.

[@user-gk2yu5cj8n]

Hotch needs to come back his fans miss him

[@theblueboxtardis]

Damn Hotch gave it to her good 😂 0:26 - 0:45

[@rockysquirrel4776]

As usual, the armchair quarterback is the most useless person in the room.

[@danielhaire6677]

Worse than that. At this point, Strauss was concerned more about politicking and climbing the rungs of the FBI. While good advertising for her, she considered the talent of Hotchner and others a potential threat if they ever seemed to be poised to overshadow her.

[@HarmfulDesign]

Don't think I didn't see those DBZ figurines in Garcia's office. >:D

[@joanwood9480]

Always felt that Hotch/Thomas Gibson never got to smile enough. He should have just been given a hiatus for a season and then brought back. The other instigator should have also been given hiatus. Hotch was the best unit chief. Emily's good but Hotch was the best

[@francescapatti2934]

I love the judge😂 "ok so tf you want hes right lmao"

[@johnblais2065]

Great show

[@kelli217]

Hotch was also way too tightly wound, and it was a reflection of Thomas Gibson’s actual personality… they eventually would have had to have an episode where Hotch just snapped, but Tom beat them to it by having his own meltdown.

[@TimedRevolver]

Not entirely fair. While Thomas Gibson was wound tight, from what I've been able to gather, he was dealing with an openly hostile member of the crew who treated others like utter shit. And Thomas decided he'd had entirely too much of that, so he did something about it. And something minor, at that. He could have beat the hell out of the guy, but instead just kicked him in the leg.

[@HerrFrutex]

@@TimedRevolver exactly. The actual villian was kept on set. Thomas Gibson was the one who had to take the bullet.

[@inherblues7261]

@@HerrFrutex who was the other guy?

He was wrong about Gideon. Gideon was never the same after Rugen died...

That lady was decent on 24.

[@izhamsham843]

This was one of the best shows on TV.. but I started to lose interest when 1) AJ Cook was cut, and 2) Hotch was cut. But besides the great storylines, just watching AJ Cook and Agent Prentiss would be enough for me if they just sat on screen and did crocheting 😊

I lost all interest in the series once Thomas Gibson left. 🥲

Yeah. I tried to hang on for a bit after but it wasn’t the same after Hotch left.

[@dhinton1]

Thomas Gibson threw himself out ..... as much as I wanted him to stay throughout the show's run.

[@thandobhengu355]

​@@dhinton1He may have but it doesn't change the fact that some of us just couldn't watch after he left or threw himself out as you said

[@wanda7258]

@@dhinton1 I mean it wasn't really fair. He shouldn't have acted out as he did, but Virgil Williams has a history of treating people shittily and Thomas had had enough. He should've contained his anger, but he seems like a good guy. I wish he'd stayed though.

[@dhinton1]

@@wanda7258 I agree. It was NOT REMOTELY the same without him.
