Criminal Minds
CBS crime dramaCriminal Mindswas one of the most viewed cable shows during its run.
None of the first nine seasons ever averaged less than 10 million viewers.
The series came to an end in February 2020 after airing for a total of fifteen seasons.
The series was nominated for many awards including three Emmys.
According to IMDb, the following episodes were the best.
Surprisingly, all three killers were also raised as adopted kids.
They had all been adopted in 1985 at the age of three.
She tried to probe himin order to understand him since she was once a criminal, too.
However, this didn’t happen, so she was left rather disappointed.
While Garcia was absent Lynch took over as the analyst.
The team was investigating two murders in Seattle.
The two dead men both had Roman numerals carved inside their mouths.
The team thus set itself in a race against time to stop him.
Owen was an FBI agent who wanted to join the BAU.
He had quit after breaking protocol to pursue a major case himself.
Owen hadn’t been seen in the past year.
The BAU thus set out to find the motives of the email sender.
They questioned Oliver, who revealed that he had been held captive by a family known as the Stranglers.
They had tortured him and only their teenage son had been friendly towards him.
However, additional evidence suggested that Oliver might be one of the Stranglers.
The motivational speaker named Flynn became a suspect since he had gone into hiding.
This time, it was a drug-addicted religious fanatic named Tobias Hankle.
His father was a religious fanatic, too.
He thus ended up developing a split personality as both a God-fearing man and a violent killer.
All of the woman’s blood had been drained and injected into the man’s body.
Animal DNA was also found in the man’s body, thus confirming the killer’s motives.
The case involved Sarah Hillridge, whose son had been abducted when he was eight.
It was a decent plot, but audiences weren’t too impressed by it.
The team had determined that there were four assassins all related to the code name “Snowman.”
The assassin Reid was meeting was smart and knew she was being played.
What resulted is a beautiful cat and mouse contest of psychological warfare between Reid and her.
Another murder/kidnapping case popped up Phoenix, Arizona.
Two men had been abducted, and one of them had been tortured before being murdered.
Definitely not a fascinating plot.
