Jeff Davis created and executive produced the American police procedural crime drama series Criminal Minds. Originally airing on CBS from September 22, 2005, until its cancellation on February 19, 2020, the show was revived in 2022.
The show centers on the FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Unit (BAU), a squad of profilers who use their skills to solve crimes and identify the “unsubs” (unknown subjects) responsible for them. The show follows the crew as they solve problems and deal with personal issues. Throughout its 15-year run on CBS, Criminal Minds was a rating success, consistently ranking among the network’s most-watched programs.
The media franchise it produced includes a South Korean adaption as well as a video game. The fifteenth season of the show ran from January 8, 2020, to February 19, 2020, and consisted of ten episodes. In November of 2022, Paramount+ aired the beginning of Criminal Minds: Evolution, the show’s sixteenth season.
Know the Release Date!
Among crime-thriller dramas, Criminal Minds is among the most popular. There are currently sixteen seasons of the show airing between 2005 and 2022, and many viewers are hoping that the show will be renewed for a seventeenth season. The first episode of the first season of Criminal Minds aired on CBS on September 22, 2005.
After that, producers stopped worrying about the past. Further, the producers of Criminal Minds have been known to cancel a whole season practically annually. In addition, the most current season premiered on Paramount Plus on November 24, 2022, and it ran through February 9, 2023.
Now, more than six months later, we still haven’t heard anything concrete about the show’s upcoming seventeenth season. Some insiders claim that the makers will officially cancel Criminal Minds Season 17 in September 2023, as had been previously scheduled.
