Mandy Patakin has left the show, so you're gonna lose Gideon.

I love criminal minds, in fact we set up to dvr it on Wednesday but it didn't for some reason. So I'm going to see if I can catch it on line. Gideon & Hotch are my two favorites. What is it with Mandy Patankin, he left Chicago Hope years ago after just a few seasons. Does he have an aversion to tv shows that go on more than 3 seasons?

yes...Gideon's last episode is this week.

I'm really struggling with how they will have him leave the show. I sure hope it's retirement and not what they implied last week.

I hope that the deal with Hotch is just a good storyline and not a permanent deal. That would definitely be a bummer and totally catastrohpic for the show.

My guess --

He had his gun out because it is his service weapon and he is going to mail it in with his badge.

Except that it sounded like he was writing a suicide note. Also, he was saying things like "I knew they would send you to check on me." like he was leaving it all behind.

Criminal Minds is one of my favorite shows! And Yep we are losing Mandy Patankin. Last I read it was due to personal reasons, whatever that means. That letter that Gideon was writing sound very much like a suicide note, but I'm hoping not! I'm hoping he just goes away and the team decides that it is best not to try to hunt him down and they leave him alone! But it doesn't sound good does it.

Blessings,

Garsy

I know, that's why I think it's not suicide -- too obvious.

My husband's theory: Gideon is going to "lose it" due to all the stress of the job, he's going to turn into the "ultimate serial killer" and the team will have to hunt HIM down.

that's just wrong

If I didn't like Gideon - I'd say great idea!

An earlier thread about this show revealed that Mandy wanted more money, however his "People" said he was leaving due to "Creative Differences".

The suicide angle makes sense. If your star wants off, let him go, but make sure he can't come back. They did that with McClaine Stevenson (sp?) on M*A*S*H.

I didn't like they way they ended last season, I hate interoffice politics. I'm looking forward to the new season.

Told ya! Other than the mailing part, I was dead on.

Yes, but that had to be the most anti-climatic character exodus ever. The previews made it seem like the entire episode would be a scramble to find Gideon. I was disappointed.

But I did miss last week's episode. Maybe if I'd seen both it would have been more exciting for me.

Isn't that what they always say when it's money???

I'm going to miss Gideon, I really liked his character, I also really like Mandy Patinkin.

I didn't watch last night's episode, it's on my pvr (too many shows to watch on Wednesday nights!!!) but I can't wait to see what happens. I'm really wondering about Hotch.

I like Mandy Patankin, too, and hate to see him leave. I will forever associate him, however, with the Devil from Touched by an Angel.

I love Hotch, too...what a cutie. I'm afraid his marriage may be on the rocks, though....

I got the idea last night that when Hotch came home at the end she had left. I didn't like that. I thought I remembered her from the past as being fairly supportive.

Our local news said Gideon (don't know his real name) was being written out of the show permanently. Evidently he didn't show up for their first day of filming and said he wouldn't be back.

Well, she has been in the past, but she never hid her desire for him to have a 9-5 job with a real family life. I suppose the promise of it was too much for her to back off of.

yes, last night's episode was pretty anti-climatic. i hate that Mandy is off the show. he's the only reason i started watching it in the first place....of course, now i'm kinda hooked on it, so I won't stop watching it, but I just love him.

I don't know why he left, but he's been working so steadily the last few years, maybe he just needs a break.

I'm glad they didn't kill him off though.....'cause that leaves the door open *just in case*

I don't like Prentis...haven't liked her from day 1, and I could care less about Hotch's wife. to me, that's just filler because the writers can't stretch the episode for an hour. I'd rather his wife just outright leave him rather than have to deal with more of that "i want you home with me" story line....bleh.

I told my husband that if Hotch's wife knew this prior to the marriage, she definitely needs to get over it...if not, then they need to communicate better. But enough already with the threats, etc. If I want that - I'd watch soaps.

Prentis is ok - I liked when her mom was part of that one case - definitely showed a different side of her. I disliked the girl she replaced enough to give her a chance so that might be a partial reason, too. Hopefully, the writers will make an effort to do something there.

No way they could have killed Gideon or turned his character into a serial killer. That would have ruined the show. It ended the only way it could have.

I'm sad to see him go, but that was the only legitimate way to get his character off the show.

You have obviously never seen "Princess Bride".

Actually, I associate him with the villian in Elmo in Grouchland. In Princess Bride he's so much younger I didn't make the connection.
