Anyone watch it? Just found some episodes of Season 1 and watched the first episode. Was decent enough.
Anyone watch this consistently?

To be fair, the FBI's Behavioural Science Unit does not work expressly on cases involving serial killers. The BAU used in the series is a bit incorrect.I do, fantastic show at its day but it feels like they're running out of ideas. Some of the cases aren't even "serial killers", and if they are, it's more stupid than freaky.
Look out for the spin-off coming soon, starring Forest Whitaker.
not anymore doc.To be fair, the FBI's Behavioural Science Unit does not work expressly on cases involving serial killers. The BAU used in the series is a bit incorrect.
Criminals is a good show, pretty entertaining stuff but getting a bit long in the tooth now, after the stuff with Hotch and The Reaper there's not much left to explore...except JJs nether-regions
I know, the cnuts. I've stopped watching and am still contemplating writing an angry letter to CBS.not anymore doc.
Gideon struck me as a bit pompous. Rossi is a bit more believable as a character. I don't know what happened when they took out most of the classic cast and replaced them with Forrest Whitaker and a few more famous folk for 1 series and then realised they messed up and returned the old cast.It is long indeed but it's difficult to get original in terms of the crimes committed by the unsubs.I thought I would never warm to the Rossi character but having just finished the 5th season last night, I find him to be an ok/good character.Gideon was great though
They didn't. It was a spin-off and they made their intro in one of the CM episodes.Gideon struck me as a bit pompous. Rossi is a bit more believable as a character.

They didn't replace them, it was a poorly written spin-off.I watched a few episodes but couldn't get into it as I thought it was just shit.Gideon struck me as a bit pompous.

Oh right. I only watched a few minutes and thought they had wrecked the original set up.They didn't. It was a spin-off and they made their intro in one of the CM episodes.
I agree with the second bit, but I preferred the way Gideon was more of the lead. I'm not overly keen on the whole Hotch/Morgan leadership thing.Gideon struck me as a bit pompous. Rossi is a bit more believable as a character.
My wife loves this series. She also likes all those other forensic detective stuff...CSI whatever.Anyone watch it? Just found some episodes of Season 1 and watched the first episode. Was decent enough.

It's much better and more intelligent than that CSi crap.My wife loves this series. She also likes all those other forensic detective stuff...CSI whatever.
Never watch any of them myself...though.
Yeah the characters were easy, piss poor writing. I mean a quiet one, a prison one, a foreigner lady's man one, an emotional and mysterious leader. They are all smarter more controlled than the FBI head who despite being a profiler is old and past it. It's like t.v by numbers.The Red Cell was really poor because mainly people hated the new characters.Nothing mostly interesting about them.
I miss the feeling of watching the first two season for the first time.I miss the Gideon character
I thought it was a good ending and will probably morph into a change in Reid's character in the coming episodes.I just watched the 12th episode of seasons 8 and I honestly don't understand what the feck were the writers thinking of in the end .
All of this story to finish it like that ??
Only seen that it was back from christmas break now so I'll give it a watch tonight!Watch until the last episode (number 12) Keltoi and all will be revealed
I enjoy it but youre right it does seem to follow the line of, start of episode someone gets killed, team get called in, another body found, someone else gets taken, team confront killer in end of episode stand off where he uses the captured person as human shield.I don't know how you guys can watch this. Most formulaic show I've ever seen.
There way more to it than that, there is a few sub plots that last more than 1 EP.I don't know how you guys can watch this. Most formulaic show I've ever seen.
How is it rubbish? I've watched several seasons of it. Every episode starts with the serial killer killing a few people and then snatching the next person. Then the team gets called in and goes through their procedures. They eventually find the guy within seconds of him killing his next victim and Reed talks about some childhood trauma that makes the serial killer let his victims go.The first three seasons of so are immense.
It's rubbish to call it the most formulaic, but it certainly is (like all tv series over 3 or 4 seasons) struggling for ideas and probably should have ended a while ago.
Yeah later on, but THE most formulaic? That CSi shit is worse for a start.How is it rubbish? I've watched several seasons of it.

With Lundy from Dexter? (I know you're banned now)The serial killer storyline was great a few seasons back (we're he and the women jump in front of the train in the end)
