I haven't watch it yet either. I know of one of the character side plots, and Tumblr and Twitter were not happy (I, on the other hand, disagree with the Tumblr/Twitter folks as I don't want what they want )

Except for not getting why the jump from dad to werewolf, I enjoyed the show last night. I hope Luke's lady friend stays, we need more happy home life for our BAU agents.

Superficial couple of things: Emily with the arrest and going in at the ex-wife's house is A+. Matt ribbing Luke was cute.

Promo for next week also looked good. Last night's preliminary rating is 1.0.

Oh gee, look who's got a full blown, onscreen romance from the start, after only two years on the show...

watched this last night late on demand .. another episode where this time the whole team was working on the case . Luke and new women ,we saw in Ep 1, on a date .. then the follow up at the end . It would be nice to see a new relationship on the show .

The teeth being made i am sure isn't our first case like this .. Funny my friend and i thought the unsub looked like a young Kramer from Seinfield !! When saw him in the park and the ex ,who i thought was his girlfriend not ex wife ,i figured she was the next vic ..

Enjoyed having a case and Garcia added her humor to Luke and company .. Of course lukes dog (name excepts me ) seems to a popular new cast member

It was an okay episode. I just watched this (so super late), but I found myself trying not to doze off at times. Probably most likely due to it being 2 in the morning, though I wasn't tired before I started watching the episode...

Did they really have to make Lisa a doctor? Everyone's already saying Luke is sort of a "Morgan 2.0", so then they go and make his love interest Savannah 2.0?

The Luke-Lisa-Garcia scene was cringe-y. Garcia, why you got to be so awkward? I liked Lisa saying "there's a colorful woman trying to get your attention". Weird of Garcia to just show up at the restaurant. Luke should have had his phone on though. But even though that was stupid of Luke, it was still weird of Garcia to just creep up on him like that. In the season 5 premiere, it took half an episode before someone (Prentiss) decided it was time to check on Hotch after he didn't show up or answer any calls. And he was the freaking professional boss! Just an excuse for Garcia to show up and make things awkward

Tumblr and Twitter people were freaking out because Luke was dating someone other than Garcia (and Reid). I couldn't even look at the Criminal Minds tag that night not because of not wanting to get spoiled, but because of all the hysterics over Luke and Garcia not being together. #TheHorror. I personally don't want team members together and hope Garcia and Luke stay just friends and are never romantically together. I get some people ship characters, but man, it was a bit much with some of the social media posts.

The case: I don't see why the whole werewolf angle was necessary. It didn't really tie in. They could have easily done without it.

I liked that the giving the profiling scene was split up into two groups. It made it flow a bit better. If they insist on having so many team members, they should do it like this more. Or just have a few of them give the profile. But the two groups was definitely better than going down the line saying one sentence at a time.
