To me, what makes Spencer Reid as a character so interesting to watch is that he breaks the mould of both nerdy characters and crime show men by being one thing: emotional.

As someone who grew up watching crime shows such as NCIS, NCIS LA, CSI and Law and Order, I’ve seen my fair share of crime show men and they often all have the same characteristic of having a very limited emotional range in order for them to seem tough.

Nerdy characters also have this characteristic but for a different reason: quite often these characters are displayed as not having many emotions because they use logic over emotion.

Reid is both a crime show man and a nerdy character yet he is incredibly emotional. He will cry, he will storm out the room, he will laugh, he will look after his mum, he will get embarrassed, he will get angry and all these other things. And he’s not portrayed as any less than for it.

Whilst Hotch, Morgan, Alvez, Rossi etc. don’t always show the same emotional vulnerability as Reid and will quite often be portrayed as ‘tough guys’, they never once judge Reid for being emotional and they never treat him as less of a man or less intelligent for it.

This doesn’t mean they ignore it though, they don’t treat him as less than for it, but they do acknowledge it. They know that he needs a bit more comfort in sad moments. They know that he needs someone to check in on his apartment. They know to prompt him to open up about his feelings. They know he is easy to break and they acknowledge and understand that.

I just really love how Reid is portrayed because he has never been expected to act like a stereotypical action man, yet he’s seen as just as much of one as the other men on the team.

okay y’all. spencer reid fans buckle up, cause i have some thoughts. i wanna talk about post-prison era reid. we all love him, but i've been having some major thoughts about it. one of the main things about post-prison era reid, is that he masks so heavily, and none of his autistic traits are shown anymore. now i'm all for trauma making a character mask more, but cm didn't really view it like that, and i dont like that. another thing about post-prison reid is that he no longer gives any fucks and will fuck you up. i love this, because it personally feels like, after years of being ridiculed for his autism and how it affects him, he fights back against it. you can try and ridicule him, but he's gonna put up a fight, and you're not gonna win. a lot of people like post-prison era reid because of his hair- which is completely valid,, fluffy haired reid is amazing. but i feel like we as a fandom are not talking about the drastic changes in his character enough. yes! post-prison reid is awesome! but let's talk about why. how he went through trauma and it changed him fundamentally. how he masks so much he's almost unidentifiable. everything that made reid him before, doesn't anymore, and reid has to figure out who he is without that. he has to figure out IF there is a him without it.

in conclusion: post-prison era reid is so so interesting, and we as a fandom don't go into WHY post-prison reid is, if not the best, one of the best, eras of reid enough.
