"Criminal Minds" has had 11 seasons so far and still going strong. Why?
1. Have you seen Dr. Reid?
First off, he is incredibly handsome. Plus, who does not love a good nerd? He knows more facts at the tip of his pinky finger than most people know their whole lives.
2. Umm, hello—Derek Morgan.
Hottie, am I right? (I'm totally right.)
3. Don't worry, guys, I didn't forget about you. JJ is just one of many beautiful and highly intelligent ladies on the show.
She's beautiful, kind, warm-hearted, but can also kick butt. What more could you ask for?
4. Penelope Garcia.
What is TV anymore without a hacker? We see it in "Arrow" (a very successful CW show) as Felicity Smoak; we see it in "The Flash" as Cisco Ramon (another very successful CW show). Everybody loves a good hacker, especially when they are using their powers for good rather than evil.
5. The relationship between Derek Morgan and Penelope Garcia.
The way Derek talks to Penelope is how every girl dreams of being treated by her Mr.Right.
6. The mystery.
I mean, who doesn't like a good mystery show? Even with all the episodes they created, they still come up with new and inventive scenes for everyone. No two episodes are alike, which is the great part about this show. Even though they are all focused on catching a serial killer, no serial killer is exactly the same. They all have their own story, their own background, etc. They all have differences; they all have different (criminal) minds.
7. The plotl ine.
Unlike other crime shows, these characters take you on a journey. It's more than just fighting crime. You discover more about the characters along the way. Like why did Hotch get a divorce, and what ever happened to his son? What is the story behind Prentiss? What is family life like for JJ? These characters have a life outside of kicking butt and taking names. They have a history, and "Criminal Minds" does a great job of taking you on this adventure with them throughout their crazy lives.
10/10 would recommend.
