It’s been over two years since Criminal Minds went off the air. Now the BAU is back. The show picks up nearly three years after the events of the series finale. The characters have gone their separate ways adjusting to their new lives. Soon they are pulled back together when an unsub (unidentified subject) takes advantage of the pandemic. He creates a cross-country network of serial killers to unite and organize them.
Not only must the BAU deal with this criminal mastermind, they must pick off the serial killers in his network. The first two episodes of Criminal Minds: Evolution premiere today on Paramount+. A special broadcast will air as well at 10pm ET/PT on CBS.
