Criminal Minds is supposed to be appropriate for ages fourteen and up!?
Maybe I'm overreacting -- and I definitely feel like a curmudgeon -- but given what I've been looking at in the last few episodes -- a murdered and sexually abused six-year-old, photos of a woman who's been tortured to death, a man's arm that was dissected down to the bone, children being held hostage -- I really would not want fourteen-year-olds watching this. o.O
This sort of disturbingly emphasises my prior suspicions that most of the FF.Net authors writing CM fic are between the ages of 12 and 14. It's somewhat alarming that the show says it's okay for fourteen-year-olds; it's a much more disconcerting feeling I get when I realise that they appear to be a significant segment of the audience.

Date: 2011-10-25 07:32 am (UTC)Looking at that? This does not sound like my kind of show! But really, I like it quite a bit, so long as I don't watch more than five episodes at a time (hello, nightmares about serial killers). I don't quite know why, when I generally shy from L&O: SVU for the obvious reasons...
(Oh, Garcia and Morgan and Reid, the things you drag me into!)
