3rd Life
I’m mad! I wrote a whole post but it wouldn’t publish, so here is Try #2. Last night, “3rd Life” reaired, and I did like it better than I did before. I think that knowing that Lindsay and her father were protected witnesses made everything make more sense. The first time I watched it, I thought that her flat affect was just not so great acting. But knowing that she’s had live a lie makes it understandable. Like the way she interacted with the kidnapper/killer…not hysterical. She threatened them. Anyway, I liked it. And ratings have been improving - last week “Elephan’ts Memory” was in the Neilsen top ten. Hopefully, it does as well this week.
Some other cast info:
Matthew Gray Gubler had an interview in the Hardvard Independent in which he talked about movies, characters, and more. You can find that by clicking here.
Here’s a little piece of that interview:
B: Can you give us an inside scoop on what’s going to be happening on this season’s Criminal Minds?
M: Someone is maybe gonna get blown up. I don’t know who. That’s a mystery to me, too. All I know is something blowing up. I think one of the main characters may be involved in that. … My character’s been hooked on heroin and someone else may or may not be pregnant on the show. Oh and I signed on officially for the sequel of Alvin and the Chipmunks [playing Simon].
B: So do you think Dr. Reid will be in any more high tension situations this season?
M: I bet your bottom dollar. It’s the writer’s favorite thing to put Dr. Reid into like some sort of damsel in distress situation, but I think they’re making him a little bit stronger, too. Reid is kind of in a character revolution. In fact, the episode we’re shooting now is really interesting because it flashes between modern-day us and the versions of us four years ago. And I played Dr. Reid four years ago yesterday and it felt like a completely different show. … It didn’t hit me until that moment how much this character was really transformed and changed into something completely different.
Speaking of someone maybe being pregnant, I think that is going to come up in next week’s episode so make sure to watch!
Also, I was flipping through the channels last night and landed on Two and a Half Men, guest starring Paget Brewster. She played a more funny, weird role than CM’s Emily Prentiss. It’s always interesting to see her and the rest of the cast in different roles.
