Pot meet Kettle…You’re a trip lady…and wasting my time. I’ve read some of your ludicrous posts elsewhere and will not continue this silly dialogue with you about butt-hole opinions, which seem to be all you have. I didn’t care for JLH’s character either, about as much as I don’t like Aisha’s. But it’s the characters I don’t care for, the ladies playing the role are simply doing a job. The nonsense about JLH or anyone having a baby to steal storylines and screen time is simply idiotic. I will waste no more time with you or your ridiculous machinations. Good-by…

I don’t think so. I quite liked her to begin with on Criminal Minds but as they have been making her character dominate the show to the point where her screentime exceeds the series leads – who we all really watch for – she has now started to really irritate me. They seem to be doing the same thing with her that they did with JJ’s character by making her omnipresent and a bit of a superwoman to the point where lots of fans end up really annoyed. I fear that by the time this season ends I may actively dislike her! For a recurring character she seems to have been in almost every episode and in the forefront – I watch to see the original team at the heart of the show, not supporting cast. It’s inevitably going to affect how I view the actress in any future role.

I don’t intend to stop watching a show that I’ve watched since its inception just because I don’t like a character. I’ve disliked many characters but am committed to the original team. You don’t get to tell me what to watch or not watch simply because I don’t like a character you happen to be okay with. Just like you don’t like JLH (I didn’t either), you don’t hesitate to share your opinion about her. I feel the same way about Alisha’s Tara. And frankly in this business, if she’s not used to criticism, she’s in the wrong business. I tried to like Tara in the business until the character hogged all the screen-time from Hotch and the regulars. Now, I’m so over her and could care less if she’s in any episode. I’m looking forward to tomorrow’s episode partly because she’s not in it. They may choose to keep her, but they need to keep her screen time to a minimum. And you don’t have the right to tell anyone to stop watching a show, especially when you too hypocritically complain about characters (JLH) and believe you somehow have that right but others don’t.

Just get her off Criminal Minds. Frankly, I don’t care where she goes. All I know is I will not be following.

I not sure I watch it, but she is a good actress and might give her a try.. It would be interesting to see her in the court of law, interrogating and determining who is and who is not acceptable to be put on trial. She has shone she’s not afraid to get her hands dirty and ask the difficult questions. I say, “Why not?”
