Images from the CBS Fall Preview at The Paley Center - 2011

CMRT was able to attend the Criminal Minds panel at The Paley Center. We thought we'd share some of our pictures. Please be sure to check out our thoughts from the panel in the post below.

Expect Criminal Minds to bring the BADASSERY in Season 7


A lot has been said about the recent Criminal Minds panel at the Paley Center. CMRT was in the house too. The best looking cast on TV looked amazing and seemed so excited about the upcoming season. Here are a few highlights that we took away from that evening:

1) From the short segment of the season opener “It Takes A Village” we were shown, the first episode it going to ROCK. It looks like we are in for a wild ride.

2) It is GREAT to have the team back together. Paget Brewster and AJ Cook were missed last year and we are so excited to have them back. The seven actors on that stage have the best chemistry. Prentiss back from “the dead” and the return of JJ is the best outcome we could have ever hoped for. Thankfully CBS worked things out with Shemar and Thomas too so we can have them all this coming season.

3) They are not going to gloss over the deceit surrounding Emily’s “death”. The team was fractured; let’s hope we get great drama as they put it back together.

4) We are very excited to have Erica Messer running our show. CBS could have brought in an outsider to take over for Ed Bernero but chose to promote from within. Erica has been with us from the very beginning. She is as big a fan of CM as we are. Erica promises to bring the BADASSERY to CM. Bring it on, Erica!!

5) Hotch with a beard is sexy. In fact, it was Thomas Gibson’s return from hiatus with his beard that got the show to want to write it into the show. Hotch’s beard should be in the opening credits as a supporting player.

6) JJ as a profiler means we get to see a whole new side of her and we can’t wait.

7) Season 7 is going to let us dive a little into what drives these seven agents to continue to do what they do. Anyone else excited to see some new layers added to our beloved characters?

8) We really do have the BEST looking cast on television. Sorry, had to say it again!

I think Kirsten Vangsness had the best analogy of the evening. She said last year they had a whole bunch of lemons thrown at them; the debacle with AJ and Paget, the contract negotiations with Shemar Moore and Thomas Gibson, Ed Bernero leaving, new writers to name a few. This year they’ve taken those lemons and are going to try and make the best and sweetest lemonade ever!

CMRT is ready and excited for Season 7 of Criminal Minds! Are you??
