CRIMINAL MINDS: "HONOR AMONG THIEVES"


Criminal Minds "Honor Among Thieves" will air on Wednesday April 11, 2007. Elizabeth Prentiss (Kate Jackson), a foreign ambassador and SSA Emily Prentiss' mother, seeks the aid of the BAU when a Russian immigrant is kidnapped and held for ransom. Starring: Mandy Patinkin, Shemar Moore, Thomas Gibson, Matthew Gray Gubler, Paget Brewster, A.J. Cook and Kirsten Vangsness. Written by Aaron Zelman, who was also the Co-Executive Producer of the episode, and directed by Jesus Trevino. I was given this script on my visit to the set and it is brilliant. Aaron Zelman wrote an incredible episode which is no surprise since he has written some of the very best episodes of the series to date: "Poison", "Won't Get Fooled Again", "Machismo" and "Psychodrama". Please trust me when I say that "Honor Among Thieves" is even better.

  2. I am really looking forward to the newer episodes but mindful that the season is ending soon which is a real downer.

  8. I don't know about you but it looks like Mom is looking past Emily. Maybe that is the nature of their relationship.

    Looking forward to it.

  9. Sounds like a winner. Zelman in great. Plus it is our first new one since Ashes. Anxiously awaiting it. Tv has been boring lately with everyone showing repeats.

  10. I am looking forward to seeing Kate Jackson and Paget in scenes together. It should be really intense.

  11. This looks great. We need a Charlie's Angel on the show. Spice things up a bit for Prentiss.

  14. I think it'll be interesting to see how Prentss acts around her mother, that's for sure! Can she be an adult or does seeing Mommy push all her buttons! *lol*

    Even if Prentiss isn't my fave character, heck, it's a new ep so I'm looking forward to it.

  15. They look tense in the picture as was commented already. I bet they are great in scenes together. Not much longer a wait.

  16. I can't wait. I'll have to see it once or twice for the story and then at least once more to look for Kris!

    This casting is really awesome. It'll be interesting to see what the rest of the BAU thinks of Mom. We already half-know Hotch's opinion. Heh.

  17. I forgot this is Kris' episode. So sorry Kris. Now I am even more pumped for the episode.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Wow. Me too. Now I feel terrible. So sorry Kris. We are most looking forward to seeing you in the episode. Then Kate Jackson. My apologies are added to Allie's.

    I think this is really going to be so great. The more I think about it the more excited I get. I am hoping we will learn enough to truly embrace Prentiss when the episode it over.

  19. Really counting the days.

  20. I agree with everyone that has already posting and yes I too think Jackson is looking right past Prentiss. I think their relationship is going to make for some really good tv watching.

  21. This sounds great. Yippee.

    ReplyDelete
  22. We are getting three for the price of one with this episode. We get a new episode, Kate Jackson and Kris. That is a great deal.

    ReplyDelete
  23. good choice for her mother. she a good actress.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Sindee: Great question and something for us definately to look for. I was there for the last day of shooting for Ashes and the first day of shooting for Honor. Kirsten received the pens on day one so it is really possible. Thanks for reminding us. :)

    ReplyDelete
  25. So let me see if I have this correctly. We are getting a new episode, Kris, Gina and maybe our pens. This does have the potential of being a great episode.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Looking forward to the epi. Looks like it is going to explain a few things about Prentiss for us. I have always like Kate Jackson so really this is a great treat.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Not much longer now. Thank goodness. Repeats are wearing thin. It looks like it will be great.

  28. Brewster and Jackson are such strong actresses. I bet their scenes are really good. Looking forward to this one with everyone else.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Who could ask for anything more? A new CM epi, a great guest start, Kris is in the epi, and the possibility that Kirsten is using some of her new pens!

  30. I'm very anxious for this one!! I appreciate your "heads-up" info, Jill. I am one that DOES like to read things beforehand. Thanks!

  31. Like Joyce I like to know a little bit little this much but not too much that it ruins it for me. Thank you for the line you set.

    ReplyDelete
  32. This looks real good.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Maybe this episode will help humanize Prentiss for us.

    ReplyDelete
  34. Zelman can always be counted on for a good epi. Glad it is soon.

    ReplyDelete
  35. It looks like Kate and I aged together. I remember when we were both young like Paget. It will be awesome to see this episode.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Really looks like a good one. Thanks for posting it. Is there going to be a chat after it?

    ReplyDelete
  37. Looks great. Thanks for posting.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Going to be a great one.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Here is how this is going to play out I think. Zelman will get the praise he will obviously deserve, Jackson will nail her performance perfectly, and we will be given all we need to finally and totally embrace Prentiss. Just my guess.

    ReplyDelete
  40. Sounds really good.

  41. Looking forward to watching it. Sounds like a really good episode.

  42. A.J. looks like Emily Proctor from CSI Miami in the picture above.

    ReplyDelete
  43. This is going to be really awesome. Jackson is a great actress. I do think they look quite similar to each other.

  47. I love Paget Brewster and Kate Jackson.

  48. Enjoyed seeing Olga Sosnovska again and love her in any of her accents, though she can speak perfect English.
    It was good to see Kate Jackson and she is old enough to play a mother and I just wish I looked as good as she does and I'm 2yrs older.
    E.T.
