It Was 'Criminal'
CBS' post-Super Bowl Criminal Minds was all about synergy.
First there was the device of using a fake Jim Nance and company broadcast of the post-game show as a link between the game and the show, in which a couple are murdered after their Super Bowl party.
Then there was the viral video theme that permeated the show, though ironically Viacom, parent of CBS, has just forced YouTube to pull its content off the site.
When CBS lingered on a closeup of a Web address being typed by the unsub (unknown subject), I figured there was a reason. I typed in the address, http://www.tobitnet.com/, and sure enough it was a site featuring a video clip, complete with fake Web surfer comments on the "viral video," promoting Wednesday's episode of the show, which wraps up the two-parter which began Sunday night.
Also in the irony department was the comment on violence as entertainment from Mandy Patinken when he discovers that a viral video of the killing is the top downloaded video on the Internet. Another member of his crime investgation team suggests there is something wrong with the appetite for that violence.I agree, which is why I wish they had not followed the game with a show about a women chained up and eaten by wild dogs and various people slaughtered like animals-slit throat, etc.–by a Bible-verse quoting maniac.

Do you know that 9/11 was created by president Bush to divert the fact that we are all being monitored by somthing we turn to every day? CABLE TV! Yes, it's true! If you are hooked up to cable and are in front of the "remote sensor" window on your set, you are being WATCHED! Local governments do not trust the average "Joe" and are dedicated to controlling us in a way we never thought imaginable. This "remote sensor window" is actually a tiny black and white camera spying on you. Don't believe me? Try this. Get any remote control. Next, turn on a box radio or stereo to AM station 1000. Aim the remote at the stereo's sensor window and press a button. If you don't hear anything, turn up the volume. YES! I'ts true! Remote controls operate by AUDIO, not invisible VIDEO! They communicate by sound, rather than invisible light. That tiny "Remote sensor window" actually sees you and sends this video back to the cable company. Sound crazy? I thought so, too until I was devastatingly hurt by the neighbors knowing all my private business. I just want you to know what's really going on.
