Criminal minds bts ep 7x13 snake eyes

can we just take a moment to appreciate that Criminal Minds

a primetime tv show that to many people would seem unremarkable among the hordes of crime-solving thriller serials

includes among its main cast an “overweight” (non-thin) woman who is portrayed as attractive, brilliant, capable, empathetic, loving, useful, and not a perfect Mary Sue either

and an educated man of color whose roots include struggling against classism, racism, and abuse, who is portrayed as intelligent, emotionally mature and sensitive, capable, skilled at both action and strategy

and they have an ongoing flirtation that manages to illustrate both mutual respect and freedom of feeling
