![]() We like to do that as much as we can.Ĭase in point, I have two kids, and we’ve written that into the show. Erica has always been really good at writing true to life. My character, JJ, is a mom and she’s exhausted. Everyone has been through quarantine, and people have lost loved ones. Everyone is trying to get back to real life. It feels very real because we’re picking up in this world, with the landscape that we’re in right now. What did the serial killers do during quarantine, when they were locked down? How did they get through the day? I think it’s such a compelling storyline. She came up with this idea in the middle of quarantine because that’s how our brains work. What was it like to then add the new aspect of it being serialized?ĬOOK: Erica Messer is a genius. I’m sure it also helps that it’s a 10-episode order. ![]() You didn’t really have to convince any of us to come back. We all just really, genuinely love being around each other, so it was not a hard sell, by any means. It was so much fun to have everyone in one place, on a screen. So, when this first came up, we decided to hop on a big Zoom conference call, which was so much fun. ![]() We were already missing each other because of that. We saw each other every day for 15 years, and then the show ended, and COVID happened, and the world shut down, and we were all quarantined and couldn’t see each other. We were thrilled to be doing this again because we were all so close. The surprising part, for me and for some of my castmates, was how quickly the turnaround was, and believe me, we were all thrilled. This isn’t the last time we’re gonna do this, as a group.” We always knew that we were gonna do it again. When this show closed its doors in 2020, after 15 seasons, did it feel like that was it and that it was done, or did it feel like there was always this possibility that it could come back in some form?ĬOOK: The really interesting part about all of this is that, even when we wrapped, there were murmurings going around of, “We’ll do a reboot, one day. Cook (who plays Jennifer “JJ” Jareau) talked about returning to Criminal Minds, after 15 seasons on a broadcast network, for this new serialized iteration for streaming, the changes they’ve been able to make, how her own kids came to play her kids on the show, directing another episode this season, her hope that Matthew Gray Gublerwill return in the future, and what she’s enjoyed about getting to dig deeper into JJ’s personal and family life. ![]() This places the team in a position of having to hunt each of them down with very little information apart from their crime scenes, at the same time that they’re dealing with their own demons, personally and professionally.ĭuring this 1-on-1 interview with Collider, A.J. The Paramount+ original series Criminal Minds: Evolution follows the familiar team of criminal profilers at the FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Unit (BAU), as they hunt a threat unlike anything they’ve ever faced – an UnSub who’s used the pandemic to build a network of other serial killers and guide them in reaching their full potential. ![]()

What does alliteration mean? Check out these real-world examples in ads, songs and poetry. Unlike a simile, a metaphor does not use "like" or "as" in order to make the comparison. In this example, dealing with rough emotions is equated to something being shattered or broken. Someone's heart has not actually split in half but it may feel that way since they are upset or angry. For instance, "someone's heart is broken" or "he was drowning in debt."Ī metaphor identifies two things and places them together to symbolize something figuratively. What is a metaphor?Ī metaphor is a figure of speech used to make a comparison or analogy through phrases and words.įor example, a metaphor can compare one thing – such as an action or object – to another, even though it is not the reality, according to Grammarly. ![]() If you're looking to improve your rhetorical prowess, read on.

Maddy gets in Cassie’s face and calls her the most “self-centered, idiot person.” Rue’s attempt to deflect the situation away from her works at first, but Suze and Leslie try to get it back on track. (HBO)Ĭassie starts to cry, while Maddy flips out. Rue says she saw Cassie get into Nate’s truck. Cassie walks in and nonchalantly tells her to take sobriety “one day at a time.” This is the moment when Rue asks Cassie - in front of Maddy - how long she’s been hooking up with Nate. Leslie attempts to stage an intervention with the Rue. ‘Euphoria’ Season 3 Updates: Premiere Date Delayed & Everything Else We Know Rue Reveals Cassie & Nate’s RelationshipĪs she heads down the stairs, Rue sees her mother. Rue goes looking for drugs and steals a pair of earrings. When Rue goes to the bathroom, Suze tells Lexi that Rue is not doing well. Lexi and Cassie’s mom makes small talk and asks if she’s clean. It’s clear that she’s going through withdrawal. She runs to Fez and gets no answer, so she tries Lexi’s house. So much so she gets out of the car in the middle of traffic. Leslie’s taking Rue to rehab, but Rue is adamantly opposed to it. Rue winds up in the car with Leslie and Gia. She brings up Jules leaving when she needed her the most. Jules begins to cry, but Rue doesn’t let up. There.” Rue takes it one step further and says meeting Jules was the biggest regret of her life.

So if you step on your valve and tear it or it otherwise won't seal, you're out of luck. ![]() REI also doesn't make replacement parts available. REI's "official" repair service (Rainy Pass) doesn't repair pads. So if you lose your pillow pump, or a valve breaks, or seam splits, or you damage it to the point of not being able to patch it on your own -even if you're willing to pay for a repair - you're screwed. That one-year policy would maybe be fine if they had a repair service that handled pads AND they made parts for their REI products available. REI doesn't have any backstop like that - after that year, you're on your own. But Patagonia will - at the very least they'll repair it. If you buy a Patagonia Jacket at REI and the seam sealing fails two years later, REI won't take it back. The problem here is that they have no mechanism for addressing manufacturing or design defects after that year. I know why they did it - to stop all the fraudulent returns and abuse. ![]() Yes, the pad is covered by REI's satisfaction guarantee but while this used to be "lifetime," they've modified the policy to be a one-year return policy. The biggest issue with REI's branded sleeping pads? They have essentially no warranty or path to repair. Plus the Camp Dreamer uses a proprietary pillow/pump inflator thing (more on that later). REI really cut some corners with this line of products- The valves are NOT as good, despite what the employee said, and the size of them doesn't match any of the other brands. As 40-year REI member and former employee who used to process all the broken returns, I hate to say it but the REI pads are kind of crappy and seem to be getting worse. No Seattle store had everything so I did this to give them a fair head-to-head audition without feeling rushed by store employees or crowds.Ĭomfort-wise the base Exped duo and REI Camp Dreamer are kinda close, but that's where it ends. This spring I bought ALL (see below for rankings) the pads and tried them out at home over a few days. I've been meaning to post my pad experience for a while and your post finally prodded me into action. This is not a criticism of you and your pad choice so please don't take it that way.
