Criminal Minds
This is one of my favorite TV shows!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criminal_Minds
-American procedural drama
-Premiered on Sept. 22, 2005
-Follows a team of profilers at the FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit. The BAU is part of the National Center for the Analysis of Violent Crimes
-Focuses more on the criminal than the crime
Background
-The series initially centered on Jason Gideon(Mandy Patinkin), Aaron Hotchner(Thomas Gibson), and the rest of the Behavioral Analysis Unit. For the first season, that team consisted of Elle Greenway(Lola Glaudini), Derek Morgan(Shemar Moore), Dr. Spencer Reid(Matthew Gay Gubler), Jennifer "JJ" Jareau(AJ Cook) and Penelope Garcia(Kirsten Vangeness).
-In 9th episode of the 6th season, Elle was replaced by Emily Prentiss(Paget Brewster). At the start of the 3rd season, Gideon departs and is replaced by David Rossi(Joe Mantegna). During the 6th season, JJ leaves and to replace her is Ashley Seaver(Rachel Nichols)
Characters
-Aaron Hotchner: Thomas Gibson. Hotchner is a severely dedicated FBI agent who often spends too much time away from home
