It’s no secret that the crime procedural is one of the most popular television formats out there, and with each passing week, it’s as if a new one is premiering on your favorite network—but there’s one that’s stood the test of time. Criminal Minds debuted in 2005 and followed the FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Unit (BAU), consisting of a group of skilled profilers who dove into the minds and motivations of criminals across the country. The original series saw a few folks come and go, but the core group for a majority of the show was led by Kirsten Vangsness as Penelope Garcia, A.J. Cook as Jennifer Jareau, Matthew Gray Gubler as Dr. Spencer Reid, Shemar Moore as Derek Morgan, Joe Mantegna as David Rossi and Paget Brewster as Emily Prentiss.
When the original series concluded back in 2020 with its 15th season, it didn’t take long for fans to rally for its return—and now, Criminal Minds: Evolution has been going strong. A continuation of the original series, Evolution brings back the familiar faces we love as they tackle new cases. Season 19 premieres in late May, and fans couldn’t be more excited at what’s to come. Here, everything we know about Criminal Minds: Evolution Season 19, the cast, plot and the show’s exciting guest stars (Spoiler alert: One Heated Rivalry star will make an appearance!).
