Well seeing as we have threads for nearly everyone else I figured sexy Mogan needed one!
Since Profiler, Profiled I have seen a whole new side to Morgan and I love it! (I think I must have watched that episode at least 50 times! ) I thought he was really sweet with Reid in Fear and Loathing.
What does everyone think about the possibility of a relationship between him and Prentiss? (Bernero hinted one in a recent article.)

The common interest they discovered in yesterday's episode has made me think that something might develop.

I think that would be interesting, because it might break down Emily's wall, but I'm scared about what it will do to his and Garcia's playful flirting!! I luv that part of the show!
Yeah, he was so sweet in Revelations, "I'm going to put this guys head on a stick," and slamming the door when Reid was hurt, as well as crying at the end. From the look he gave Tobias, I think he was really proud of Reid for being able to get a good shot. However, what really bugged me was that Reid didn't hug Morgan. HE WAS CRYING!!! Reid is like Morgan's playful little bro and Morgan has fun messing with him, so I believe that he REALLY deserved a hug from Reid, because it would have been as touching as Reid/Hotch's hug.

I can't stand big, tough, "I'll have his head on a stick" Morgan. I did, however, really like the Morgan in tonight's episode. He was very likeable. He reached out to Reid and tried to help. Tonight is the first time I can say that I liked watching his character. I take that back. I have always liked his sexy flirting with Garcia.

I don't think the "head on a stick" comment is in regards to him being big and tough, just sensitive and protective. If your sibling was being hurt or treated unfairly, wouldn't you respond with things like, "They're gonna pay"?
Anyway, it was really touching with him talking about his dad at the end. Dare I say story material for another ep? (Once the issue with Reid is dealt with, of course)

I really didn’t like Reid at the very beginning, after all when we met him he was charming a whole herd of women with his ’I’m a profiler, baby!’ stories yet, as the series progresses, I warmed up on him. I love the way he’s with Spence.

Shemar Moore is a great actor (and gorgeous of course), Its a shame he isn't getting more attention.
I have nothing against Prentiss, but I dont think she and Morgan should hook up. I just dont think it would work... and I'm also a fan of the Garcia/Morgan flirt fests.

Yeah, I'm glad that somebody started a topic for Derek/Shemar. I am a big fan of Shemar Moore. I think he is a very good actor and really shined in Profiler, Profiled. Best work on TV I seen from him. I think the character is a great member of the team. He more down to earth, not as complex as Reid or Gideon. I would like to see him doing more work during their off time too. In the mean time, I like to see more interaction between Morgan, Garcia and Prentiss. I think that would be a interesting side show with Garcia coming out on top. But really would like to see is Morgan using his skills in obsessional crimes knowledge to solve the case or at least to help solve part of a case. We really have not see him mention his expertise in a while.

You're right. I think the last time his obsessional crimes specialty was used or even mentioned was in season one's "Broken Mirror", but I could be wrong. In any case, it's about time they used it in the show again.

At the same time it seems Garcia wants him more.
(The was she seemed worried about him in distress when he didn't pick up his phone. And the way she watched him dance...)

This could be the formation of a love triangle!

I agree, I'm really nervous as to how that is going to play out. Thw writers are walking a fine line with the whole morgan/emily romance for me. I don't really want to see it go that way.

I love the flirting between Morgan and Garcia but I dont think Morgan and Emily would be a good idea.. or atleast an entertaining couple like him and Garcia would make

Its the flirting that makes Morgan and Garcia entertaining, I think we'd lose that if they ever got together.

The flirting between Garcia and Morgan lightens the atmosphere of the show, instead of it being so dark and heavy this throws in some humour which I appreciate. If they got either Garcia or Emily with Morgan that would ruin things a little for me. It's the little things that make a show great often for me, and one of those things is the lighthearted flirting, if they lost that as a viewer I would be disappointed, and they would need to bring in something else to take the "edge" off the show to keep a larger audience who may not appreciate an hour of somber drama.
