CMRT Visits Alaska! - The Final Part

These are the last of our pictures from "Alaska". Hope you have enjoyed them. It was fantastic to watch our wonderful cast and crew work that day.

The episode entitled Exit Wounds (written by Rick Dunkle) airs this Wednesday.
Please be sure to tune in.





Shemar Moore joined the set for the night shoot. He graciously took pictures and signed autographs for a good half-hour before getting to work.

For the night shoot, they moved to this small lot. Unfortunately there wasn't enough space for onlookers so we didn't get a chance to take any pictures. In the background the cast is assembling with the writer and director to discuss this scene in which they are investigating a dead body found in this lot. In this scene are Thomas Gibson, Paget Brewster, Shemar Moore, Matthew Gray Gubler, and Joe Mantegna.

We would have loved to stay and get some more photos but the temps were in the low-30's and it was time to call it a night and head home.

No sleek, black SUV's here. Alaska calls for a much more rugged vehicle

CRIMINAL MINDS Season 5 - 520. A Thousand Words - The Mystery Behind the Tattoo

Pictures were taken of the "victims" then their images were incorporated by the Art Department into the tattoo that plays a pivotal role in this week's episode, A Thousand Words (5.20). The show then brought in a tattoo artist to "ink" the unsub's back with this elaborate tattoo.

Watch the mystery of the tattoo's meaning unfold on tomorrow night's brand new episode of Criminal Minds.

Criminal Minds: Andy Swan

One thing that Matthew Gray Gubler shared with the CMRT today is that a dear friend and co-worker of his is fighting cancer. Many of you know Andy Swan as the co-creator of Matthew's 'Unauthorized Documentaries'. When we asked Matthew if there would be more documentaries, he told us what was going on with Andy.

We would like to ask everyone in the Matthew Gray Gubler and Criminal Minds fandoms to please keep Andy Swan in your thoughts and prayers and wish him a speedy recovery. According to Matthew, Andy is going to punch cancer in the face, but let's all give Andy a helping hand with our positive thoughts!

Get better soon Andy, we are all pulling for you to win this fight!

Thank You Matthew!

The members of the CMRT would like to thank Matthew Gray Gubler for taking a time-out from his Criminal Minds holiday to chat with us. Matthew is looking forward to having a proper vacation this summer after his injury last year interrupted his time off.

Matthew told us how very much he enjoyed directing the 'Mosley Lane' episode of Criminal Minds earlier this year. He hopes to be able to direct again soon. He spoke of how great it was to direct his co-stars and what pros they are. Also we discussed him being able to work with some of the guest stars he had always wanted to work with.

Again, thank you to Matthew for chatting and congrats again on 'Mosley Lane' - which is one of CMRT's favourite eps of Season 5 of Criminal Minds!

What Do Chipmunks Do on Vacation?

Stay tuned to CMRT to find out!
