Criminal Minds is an American police procedural crime drama television series created and produced by Jeff Davis and Erica Messer that premiered on CBS on September 22, 2005. It follows a group of criminal profilers who work for the FBI as members of its Behavioral Analysis Unit (BAU), using behavioral analysis and profiling to investigate crimes and find the unsub (unknown subject), the team's term for perpetrators. The show tells the story of the team as they work various cases and tackle their personal struggles.

The show's original main cast consisted of Jason Gideon (Mandy Patinkin), Aaron Hotchner (Thomas Gibson), Elle Greenaway (Lola Glaudini), Derek Morgan (Shemar Moore), Spencer Reid (Matthew Gray Gubler), Jennifer Jareau (A. J. Cook) and Penelope Garcia (Kirsten Vangsness). The cast underwent major changes throughout the series' run, with several of the original members replaced at some point by nine other characters: Emily Prentiss (Paget Brewster), David Rossi (Joe Mantegna), Ashley Seaver (Rachel Nichols), Alex Blake (Jeanne Tripplehorn), Kate Callahan (Jennifer Love Hewitt), Tara Lewis (Aisha Tyler), Luke Alvez (Adam Rodriguez), Stephen Walker (Damon Gupton), and Matt Simmons (Daniel Henney). Mantegna, Cook, Vangsness, Tyler, Rodriguez, and Brewster currently round out the main cast.

Criminal Minds became a rating hit for CBS, regularly featuring as one of the network's most-watched shows during its run on the network. Its success has spawned a media franchise, with several spinoffs,[f] a South Korean adaptation, and a video game.[1][2] The series originally culminated after its fifteenth season on February 19, 2020,[3][4] but was revived and re-titled Criminal Minds: Evolution[g] for its sixteenth season, which premiered on Paramount+ in November 2022. On June 5, 2024, the series was renewed for an eighteenth season.[5]
