Criminal Minds: Evolution follows the BAU team as they reunite to investigate a dangerous new threat that emerged during the COVID-19 pandemic, forcing them to confront a more connected and organized form of serial crime than they’ve faced before.

There are a lot of crime procedurals on television, so it's hard to stand out for as long as this show has. Though there are a few seasons with a revolving door of cast members, it's the cast that keeps me coming back for more. There's such great chemistry among this group of people who are having to solve some of the worst mysteries around. As a bonus, much of the psychology explored in the show, however briefly, is accurate, and that's the whole hook. A lot of time, crime shows cherry pick aspects of psychological theories to make a storyline work, and that doesn't happen here.

I've been a huge fan since season 1. I was worried Evolution wouldn't hold a candle to the original 15 seasons. I was wrong! This show is FIRE! But I do miss Reid and the super sexy Shamar Moore. Wheels up!

I just started watching Criminal Minds this past year and it has become one of my favourite shows on TV. As I tape all the episodes I realize that I have seen some of the episodes in the past but it’s not until now that I’ve gotten hooked. I was married to an FBI agent.

Perhaps one of the greatest crime dramas on modern television. Despite going through numerous cast changes and even a brief hiatus before Criminal Minds was picked up by Paramount, Criminal Minds has managed to hold on to their loyal following and even up their game. Even though the return of the show was missing some fan favorites, specifically Matthew Gray Gubler, it has managed to bring forth an antagonist that has completely rocked the boat even more so than some of the iconic antagonists of the show like Mr. Scratch. The show is darker and more intense than ever before and it is all the better for it. The revival of Criminal Minds has hooked me the way the earlier season used to and I'm so excited for more.

I really wanted to like CM: Evolution. And for me the second season was worst than the first. But when there's only 10 episodes per season on Paramount+, how are you supposed to get invested in the new series.
I did like the original Criminal Minds. There you had something like 20 episodes per season. And great chemistry with all the cast members. IMHO. Thanks

I love this show. I've seen season 1 through season 15. Each episode kept me on the edge of my seat. I wish I could watch the new season, but for now I can't. Even though the characters are not real, I girl can still dream right. Favorite bad guys are The Reaper, Mr. Scratch. Some episodes make me catch my breath, and all are not predictable. My favorite episode of the original series is the episode called Saturday. My favorite bad girl is Kat Adams. So, in other words I recommend this series

My love for this show is endless. I have been watching it from the beginning. The characters are the best. The saddest episode , so far, was when Hotchner’s wife was killed. I am enjoying watching CM:Evolution, so far.

I agree with other posts, Criminal minds just isn't the same without the boy/ man wonder sexy, super smart Spencer aka Dr. Reid. I barely watch current episodes since his departure. 🫣

I used to watch Criminal Minds until the series went overboard with Gubler's character with the incarceration and mental issues. Since then, I have become reacquainted with the series on the Mystery channel as regular programming does not interest me.

Is it just me or has the show become all about JJ? We get it, she is a bad ass but can we move on now. The writers are over compensating when it comes to JJ, calm down. Her bravado should come naturally, the work that they all doing is special, unique and all that so why not just give AJ Cook a spin off "super spy" show and we can all focus on the criminal minds show again. Im just kidding about the spin-off show, but that being said tho, JJ used to be a likeable, and relatable character and I get that with all the behind the scenes drama that they wanted to refresh and "upgrade JJ" and having her come back as a profiler was enough she didn't have to come back as "super woman". Anyway, the show is about profilers, in my opinion they heading in a different direction like another fast and the furious where everyone comes back to life and instead of profilers they are G.I Janes and Joes. What's next Penelope has always been a secret Special Ops Assassin? lol I still like the show, I love some episodes more than others some I find a drag, but this is just my personal opinions about the show and the characters and does not reflect what i think of the actors and actresses they all doing a great job as well as the writers.

I like it when Thomas Gibson was still on, the last time I watched the show was when he got fired. I didn't know why I give it even 3 stars.
