Hotchner and Prentiss: The Broken Road

Articles/interviews (scroll down for latest) TV Guide interview with Paget Brewster (March 2009) (click for full article) Extract from the TV Guide interview: TVGuide.com: Of course, a band of fans want her [Prentiss] to hook up with Hotch. Brewster: I know! I didn't realize that fans make these videos on YouTube? A.J. Cook sent me a hilarious one that made it look like Prentiss and J.J. were having a secret lesbian affair. You know, when Hotch was blown up in the SUV, we shot this scene where he's in the hospital and I'm standing next to him, looking at his bleeding ear. Our director came in and said, "Paget, you're looking at Hotch like you're in love with him. It looks really weird." So now, every day, Thomas [Gibson] and I flutter our eyelids at each other. TV Guide snippet about Criminal Minds, Season 5 (September 2009) EW snippet by Michael Auisello (October 2009) Question: Two Criminal Minds Qs for you: Is Hotch going back to his ex-wife Haley after he catches Foyet? And will Emily finally have a love life? —Marbs Ausiello: “Hayley will definitely play an important role in the taking down of The Reaper,” responds exec producer Ed Bernero. “That’s really all I can say about that right now. And as far as Emily, we’ve all been talking a lot about her and her ’status,’ though no final decision has been made. She’s become a very important character for us in a number of ways. I think it’s fair to say that we are as interested in Emily Prentiss finding love and balance in her life as the audience is.”
