CRIMINAL MINDS: AN EXAMPLE OF CUT SCENES


I had several copies of this Criminal Minds cap printed prior to my trip so I could ask Kirsten Vangsness and Shemar Moore to sign them. Even though this scene was cut and never made it past the promo stage I like the cap. Not because I want to see Morgan and Garcia date but because I think it shows the close friendship these two characters have with each other. Their onscreen phone calls are some of the best moments on the show. :)

Awwwwwwww! So sweet!

And I am so so sad that scene got cut! Rarrrrrrrr!

I waited the whole episode for that scene since we had seen it in the promo. I hope it makes it into the season two dvds.

There's always the DVDs!

Lisa said...

Yeah, I wondered about that when The Big Game/Revelations aired; I was sure I remembered it from the promo. Good to know I'm not hallucinating :D

erin said...

I am glad I am not the only one who didn't see it. I thought maybe I had missed it somehow.

Macmillk said...

Awwwwww....can I have it?? ;-)

Just kidding (although it would be amazing to have...haha...I'm kidding on the wanting you to give it to me part).

wren said...

I would like a copy too if you have extras. Morgan and Garcia are my favs on the show.

Leah said...

I wish that had made the actual episode, hopefully they include way more cut scenes and the like in the season 2 DVDs.
They're so funny together.

That's awesome that they autographed the pic for you Jill! Everyone seems like they were super nice :)

harriet said...

I really wanted to see that cap

marina said...

Given what the storyline was when the hug occured I wonder if they cut the scene because they thought viewers would read too much into (start thinking they were dating)? I think their friendship is very special but just that.

ah. how sweet. they look so cute.

I love how much the characters care about each other in this show. The members of the BAU unit are so intuned with each other. Great show. Glad I found it.

anna said...

I think it would be great instead of taking deleted scenes and using a few of them on the season dvds if rather they did a whole dvd of just them. Wouldn't it be great to really see what they decided to not show us? Just a thought.

I love Shemar Moore and Kirsten Vangsness.

They had to scoury around refilming and splicing together because of the Super Bowl. I would bet that many great scenes are out there that we never got to see. Yes, I would love to see the deleted scenes. It would be interesting to see another step in the production process.

mona said...

I am so glad that we watched the Super Bowl and that I found this show. And I am really glad that I found your blog.

maura said...

I love when she answers the phone assuming it is Morgan and she is so Garciaish and it turns out to be one of the other team members. She always confuses Gideon. I love it.

rachel said...

I love how they signed the photo. Very cool people you had the priviledge of meeting. Garcia Rules!

nancy said...

Love this pic.

Elizabeth said...

I love this picture and the interaction between these two characters on the show.


And it is interesting to know what scenes are cut/left in and why.

caroline said...

I agree with everyone who has already posted and I too would like to see what post production decided to cut out.

estella said...

Yes the why they are cut would be very interesting. Maybe they cut this scene because they did not want viewers to think it was more than it was which was a coworker comforting another coworker.

tessa said...

I love what the signed to you. They are really wonderful.

bella said...

I started watching the show because of Thomas Gibson but Morgan and Garcia quickly became my two favorite characters. Thank you kiddo for posting this and for sending me a copy. I appreciate your kindness and prayers during this latest bout of chemo. It really did cheer me up and I appreciate your kindness so much.

steven said...

I love the picture and the autographs. Thanks for sharing them with me.

rayna said...

Garcia rules!

annie said...

Garcia rules but so does Morgan!

queenie said...

Love him, love her, love the show.....love this blog. Thanks.

shannon said...

I do not think a tiny wee bit of romance between them would bring the bau crashing down on our heads.

Anonymous said...

They are both so great on the show. You can't help but love them both.

shari said...

Very sweet. I think everyone has already said everything I would say. We just plain love both of them.

stephanie said...

I would bet some of the bloopers would be great. That is what we need. A CM bloopers dvd.

peggy said...

You need to have that framed. Wonderful.

I wanted this scene to be in the episode. I was disappointed. Pooh!
