Criminal Minds- So last night's ep was Paget Brewster's last ep. Since Criminal Minds is not a show I catch regularly, I did not Rachel Nichols was on this show. And its confusing too. Because I figured they were getting rid of Paget Brewster and AJ Cook to free up some money. And I thought it was a weird choice, because why would you get rid of the two main chicks? I mean, that leaves Garcia, but I noticed in last week's Criminal Minds spin-off show, she's pulling double duty there, so if they wanted to, they could've diminished her role on Criminal Minds (not gotten rid of her though, because she plays a vital role) and just have her be Tech Girl on both. But then I come to find out Rachel Nichols is a regular now. So why did they have to get rid of JJ and Prentiss then?
Rachel Nichols isn't that much younger than AJ Cook, so its not like its an age thing. Plus, they're both attractive blonds, I wouldn't say one was way more hot than the other- watching last night's ep, I didn't even realize Rachel Nichols was on this show at first because when they were on the plane, I thought she was JJ! But then they cut to JJ and I was all, "Wait, who the hell is this other chick?!" And hey, Rachel Nichols isn't Angelina Jolie or Julia Roberts, but she's still been in some pretty big movies, like "G.I.Joe" (as crappy as that movie was, it was still a big deal movie) So one would think she'd be more expensive than Paget Brewster or AJ Cook (though maybe not combined?)
Now, I'm not knocking Rachel Nichols, I don't have a problem with her being on the show, I just find it weird that it seemed like they were trying to cut down the size of the cast, but ended up adding another person. Then again, I suppose Paget Brewster was a replacement for Lola Glaudini back in season 2. But like I said, at least in that case it was straightforward, I don't know what happened behind the scenes, but it seemed obvious it was the intention was to replace the latter. Here, it seemed like they were just trying to make the cast smaller (which I guess they did, by one person) but then a year after it was announced they were gonna be cut, they bring in some other girl. Seems kinda hincky to me. But I digress.
