Criminal minds season 1
Review date: 2008-09-25 Rating: 10 out of 10

A friend of mine recommended Criminal minds to me, the first episode I saw was 'secrets and lies' from then on I was hooked so I bought the season 1 box set to see what I'd missed. I wasn't disappointed at all. There is a wonderful cast along with some very interesting storylines. Criminal minds isn't about dusting for fingerprints and swabbing for DNA it looks at the kind of person(s) that would commit a particular crime and why they would commit the crime. This is one show that is underrated yet one of the best crime shows out there. I'd recommend this to anyone.

This series has surpassed what we've seen to date in the CSI, NCIS, BONES and DEXTER series' - (all of which are worth watching). There appears to be a trend towards introducing eclectic characters - the genius with social ineptitude is seen in this series as well as in BONES - although in this series we're given more of a glimpse into the minds of the profilers and into their past, their struggle with what they see in their job and how they reconcile this with their personal lives. The acting is stellar throughout - the only character I was unsure of initially, was A.J.Cook as the liason agent - I felt she was too young for this role.

The series gives more depth to the criminal, tracing their path through life - what preceded and shaped them into what they are today - the psychology behind the crime - the patterns - how that fits in with the history of similar crimes.

Many of the episodes in this series excel; others are great; some are good. All, are worth watching.

The quotation at the start and end of each episode, gives a touch of class and provokes thought - often encompassing the episode and adding the perfect finishing touch!

Great TV

Being a huge fan of crime shows such as CSI and Without a Trace i'm always looking for new shows in the same vein and after recently finishing season 2 of dead like me I decided to give Criminal Minds a go partly so I could see more of the brilliant Mandy Patinkin. I certainly havent been disappointed. Where other shows sometimes rely too heavily on blood and gore for shock value, Criminal Minds is committed to showing the reasoning behind why individuals are compelled to commit such awful crimes in the first place. The fact that all of the episodes are based on real cases makes the show even more interesting to watch in a morbid kind of way. All in all, an exciting and brilliantly written series with a fantastic cast.

Brilliant series!

Although Charles Haid only participated in a couple of episodes I remembered him from his days of playing Andy Renko in Hill Street Blues, another really great series of yesteryear.The format of this programme has been well thought out, with a short quotation at the beginning and end of each episode to introduce you to it. The acting is excellent and the casting is spot-on.With every episode there is a different theme but obviously this may prove difficult in the future to maintain.All in all an exceptional series.
