More Leonard on TV: Criminal Minds

Post by vern.silver »

First off I'll admit that I probably watch to much TV - we all have our vices.

Anyway, the season premiere of Criminal Minds (The Longest Night)featured 4 songs: The Night Comes on; Dance Me To The End of Love; Sisters of Mercy: Who by fire. All were the versions from the original albums. At least no Hallelujah!

This has to be a record for a TV show: someone involved with the show must be a fan.

The episode summary: In the conclusion of last season's cliffhanger, the BAU pursues Billy Flynn, who has kidnapped Det. Spicer's daughter and continues his murder spree throughout the city of Los Angeles.

But they always have a good soundtrack and I love the quotes they use at the end. Last week when they had the LC songs, they, quite appropriately I thought, quoted the Buddha. Coincidence? Maybe.
Ring the bells that still can ring. Forget your perfect offering. There is a crack in everything. That's how the light gets in.

Sorry, I shouldn't have said that about the show! (I did "wink"!) It's always a thrill to hear Leonard Cohen on a soundtrack, or to catch a reference to him, or anything, so, yay for Criminal Minds!
