    The show lost me when the boss was on the stand during CE by a defense attorney, and he attacked the attorney by pointing out he was wearing imitation jewelry, second hand shoes and his cell was going off every 15 minutes, all of which indicated a gambling addiction which turned out to be true. He got all of that from a few minutes in the courtroom No one is that good, no one.

And every time you do, it affects your mood in court, and you’re not having a very good day. That’s because you pick horses the same way you practice law – by always taking the long shot. ..."

    I love that episode personally. I realize it is very different from any actual FBI profiling, but hey what cop show isn't? I just take it as a really cool show with awesome characters

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    That Southern drawl of hers gets irksome after a while... kinda like a Liverpudlian talking constantly here in the UK. :3

    My second guess is... Natalia Boa Vista? Or am I guessing the wrong show entirely?

    That'd be my response if she was my type. I can see the... attraction someone might have towards her though. :3

    I'd like to see a show which combines all three; the CSIs find the criminal through evidence, the Criminal Minds people establish motive and psychological patterns in the criminal's activities and the Law & Order people bring them to justice.

    That'd be crazy. :3
