It's time for the weekly poll for all you
Criminal Minds fans! Based on some of your answers in our
season 8 discussion, I thought we would vote on which of your ideas the majority of fans would like to see take place next season.
My answer is B -- I would really like to see the powers that be reintroduce the storyline with Reid's (Matthew Gray Gubler) headaches. Once the doctors told Reid that there was no physical cause for his headaches, Reid started wondering if they might be a sign that he was developing the same illness that plagues his mother. Reid opened up to Morgan (Shemar Moore) about this fear and Morgan told him that even though he was at the age when schizophrenic breaks happen, Reid was still able to do his job and that convinced Morgan that he was okay. The issue was seemingly dropped after that and we have no idea if Reid's headaches simply went away or if he just learned how to manage them better. Perhaps they were just a psychosomatic manifestation of Reid's fear, but it would be nice to get a conclusive answer and find out if Reid has gotten past that worry or if he still examines his health for early indicators of schizophrenia.
After you vote, leave a comment telling us why you chose your answer!
