Criminal Minds Season 11

DVD Wholesale Quick Overview:

Season 11 of the crime drama bids farewell to Kate Callahan (Jennifer Love Hewitt) and welcomes Dr. Tara Lewis (Aisha Tyler), a forensic psychologist. Despite the change, the Behavioral Analysis Unit continues their investigations. The cases that the unit tries to solve include an apparent terrorist attack, a killer with a penchant for medical experiments, an Internet drug ring, and many more. The unit also starts an investigation into a dangerous hitman network that spans the whole season. The members of the BAU also have to deal with personal issues: JJ (A.J. Cook) comes back from her maternity leave and struggles to balance her job and her family, Morgan (Shemar Moore) contemplates a career change, Reid (Matthew Gray Gubler) is hiding some bad news, and Garcia (Kristen Vangsness) finds it difficult to deal with some cases hitting too close to home. Thomas Gibson and Joe Mantegna are also star, and Paget Brewster comes back as Emily Prentiss for a special appearance.

Well, here we are folks! A new season, a new team member, and a new Unsub to hunt down. It must be a new season of Criminal Minds is starting up again, with the premiere episode “The Job”.

The biggest question going into the season was how the team would fill their two empty spots at their table. Apparently at least 6 or 7 months have passed, because we just found out that JJ was pregnant in the last season finale and she wasn’t even showing at all. Now her little baby is already here, so they’ve had quite a time jump. They apparently haven’t had to fill Kate’s position, but now when they’re two down they decided to let a bunch of people apply for the job. Enter Aisha Tyler and her pixie haircut!

Yes, Aisha was introduced as Dr. Tara Lewis. She apparently deals with Unsubs after they’ve been caught, which is interesting. Everybody on the BAU just catches these guys, but they don’t really spend too much time getting to know them or finding out what makes them tick. They just ship them off and move on to the next case. Tara might know more about these psychopaths than anyone else! Also she’s apparently…really good at impersonating voices? That’s weird. I really do hope they find some good opportunities to showcase Tyler’s considerable comedic abilities, because this show can definitely be in need of comic relief at times.
