goldvermilion87The background:
1. In the car on the way to my grandparents' on Saturday, someone said something about "beam me up, Scotty" and I said, "that's not actually a quotation from Star Trek." And we had a mini fight, which my mom ended by saying I obviously knew because I was so obsessive (though I pointed out that I had known before I had seen a single episode, since it's one of those famous never-quoted-quotations...because I'm in denial about being obsessive).
2. I watched the first two seasons of Criminal Minds religiously. BEST SHOW EVER. But when Mandy Patinkin left, so did I. So, I have not watched it in years.
The Serendipity:
Well, just a few minutes ago, my parents turned on an episode, and about two scenes in there was this snippet of dialogue:
Reid: Technically, no one ever said "Beam me up, Scotty." The closest anyone ever got is in the season two episode "The Gamesters of Triskelion" in which Kirk says "Scotty, beam us up" and...
Rossie: Shut up, Reid.
I laughed. And then I left, because I didn't really want to watch Criminal Minds. It always freaked me out, and without Gideon there is no reason to suffer through the freakishness. Plus, Hotch is such a downer. An incredibly handsome dower, but a downer nonetheless.
