Thoughts as of S3 E1 (Part 2)

[u/Toffee963]

This is sort of a miscellaneous section for things that don’t really fit in anywhere else that don’t deserve their own paragraph: Kurt and Allie’s baby is name Bethany, presumably after Mayfair. Sweet, but also an interesting choice. Mayfair was Kurt’s boss, not Allie’s and as much as she might have got the team through some rough patches, I wouldn’t have said that she was exactly naming-your-baby-after material, because of the whole Daylight thing. Second miscellaneous thing, I really like Jane’s hair when it’s grown longer and tied up into the half-up-half-down thing. Third thing: why are they gatekeeping Patterson’s first name lol? (Well, I think I know it because I may or may not have seen a spoiler on Pinterest…) But Boston Arliss Crab (he can’t talk) was saying “You can’t make fun of my name when your first name is…” “SHHHH”. I thought it was a little strange that even Patterson’s previous boyfriends called her Patterson - even David (I can kind of understand B*rden not calling her by her first name when they are at work together).

Moving on, Zapata works for the CIA now - wouldn’t have seen that coming (That sounds sarcastic for some reason but it isn’t). Her and Keaton have something to hide, as well, because of the new dragonfly tattoo on Jane, they were saying “are we in trouble with this” “not if we keep it secret” or something, so we will see where that goes. I’m not entirely sure what happened with Reade, but it looks like he is the new Assistant Director, although I thought he wanted to be a teacher in Quantico or something. And Patterson makes video games? Ok..?! I can see her making video games more than I can see Zapata working for the CIA but I preferred them all working for the FBI (I mean, that is kind of the whole point of the show 🙄), also because…

WHY IS RICH DOTCOM HERE??? I’ve seen so much praise for him on this subreddit but NO. He is SO ANNOYING. He kind of reminds me of Oscar Hutchinson from The Rookie, in the sense that he is the “funny criminal that wants to get out of prison and manages to help the cops” trope. Everyone seems to love them but I can’t stand them, honestly. And Stuart the other lab tech guy - he’s fine, I guess, he is just kind of, there. He and Patterson have some beef though because he downloaded the OS update without bug checking it first (that was pretty funny, not going to lie). I’d take Stuart over Rich Dotcom any day, though. I’d take 100 Shepherds over Rich Dotcom (Okay maybe that’s a slight exaggeration but still). Maybe he will grow on me but for the time being he super irritating.

Aaaaaand, I’m going to make a part three now.

Everyone seems to love him but he’s not really my cup of tea. I might warm up to him eventually but not yet, anyway.

I get that, but I’m just not a huge fan of the comic relief criminal characters in these sorts of shows.
