Anyone else have a problem watching episode 10? I got to the end of episode 9 over a week ago, and I just have no interest in watching the final. I've read enough to get the gist of what happens in episode 10, just can't make myself do it.
That last bit where that guy sent in the tape just left a horrible taste in my mouth. I can't see what purpose it serves other than to beat up on Holden even more. What is the purpose of beating up on Holden so much?
They've done a nice job showing *me* (I get milage may vary for others on this) why he's coming unglued and more difficult to work with. He's got a crappy girlfriend. He's got this idea at work that he has dragged people kicking and screaming into and now they are getting responsibility and credit he's not. I thought he behaved quite well when Bill got his own office and he didn't actually. Wendy comes in and immediate sets herself up as their superior, regardless of what she told the boss guy who's name I can't remember at the moment.
I adore Anna Torv, but what a terrible manager/researcher. You're a female and going to a high security prison really isn't a good idea for you, I get that. But maybe you should just pay more attention to what the guys are saying and figure out a way around the difficulties before just insisting "do it my way". She's expecting serial killers to behave somewhat rationally and respond the way "normal" people do. I get it's the early days, but gosh, how hard is it to figure that out???
And Bill, gee thanks for leaving Holden out to hang when it was *you* pushing him to leave out the language. Great partner you are. Did he ever once say, I told him it was a good idea? Nope.
So while I understand why Holden is being an ass in the last episode... I.just.don't.care. I don't watch this show to see a character keep getting beat up on, regardless if I think he deserves it or not. I watch this show to see people interview serial killers and develop the science behind understanding them. Give me that. Not three *incredibly* flawed, if not full up asses, behaving badly and in between maybe talk about serial killers a little bit. Honestly, I think their boss might be the only guy I don't hate at the moment.
The weird thing this show has caused me to do is actually start watching Criminal Minds again. I was never an avid watcher, but I've caught an episode or two in the past. The thing that show does? Talks to serial killers and talks about the science of how they think! I was hoping Mindkiller would be an actual *good* version of Criminal Minds. Guess not.
