#nohotchnowatch The writing is horrible and as stated in previous comments the story lines are now blurred. We who have watched for years if I was any of them I would quit due to how poorly things are being written. So honestly the exit of two main actors the show will be cancelled and if not its just an embarrassment to not only CBS but also the actors that continue to try to follow bad writing Aaron was right kick the dumb writer that doesn’t understand or know the show but this time don’t miss the nads.

Gibson is a big factor, NHNW is a factor in addition to the bad writing, useless & continued additions of actors, inconsistencies in the characters that we’ve watched for 12 years (like Prentiss having to lie & now telling Reid that he needs to trust the system, not to mention the team toasting when there’s a crazed serial killer whose targeting all of them, they sent Hotch to witness protection when his ex wife was murdered while she was supposedly in witness protection, and Hotch running like a coward, C’mon that’s not in Hotch’s his character). We can see why Gibson had questions w/the writing. ABC wanted to kill this show. CBS gave up w/out a fight & this show is struggling. Hope they were happy w/VW, the writer that started all this.

I refuse to watch Criminal Minds without Hotch. Do you think the absence of Gibson didn’t make the difference? You are very innocent! CBS, ABC and Criminal Minds producers knew what they were doing. They knew the importance of Gibson on the show and the impact of your output. You guys really think they care if the show is canceled? They wanted to get rid of the show for a long time. The only way to get rid of the show is to get rid of Thomas Gibson.The show was not giving profits to CBS, as well as the show be expensive, only ABC profited from the show. Erica Messer and Virgil Williams are accomplices.

I guess Harry Bring isn’t bragging too much these days about his idea to make more money for CBS, ABC, and himself by firing Thomas Gibson and saving on the talent budget. He has, however, been very successful in pleasing who ever it was at the Network who wanted to push Aisha Tyler into the cast triggering the series unprecedented ratings decline.

Thomas Gibson was in the second episode for 30 seconds. So don’t claim that the drop in the second episode was with Hotch. It second episode was a JJ focused episode written by Virgil Williams the bully writer who started all of this. Most Thomas Gibson fans boycotted that episode. So you can’t take the average for an episode Gibson clearly was not in. The ONLY episode you can attribute to Gibson is the first.
