Telly’s Take
Although the ratings slipped some last season, CBS still renewed Criminal Minds for a 13th season. It premiered with lower numbers than last season and the ratings have dropped quite a bit lower. To be honest, I think this show’s fate will all come down to money and contracts. I suspect that there will be a 14th and final season. I’ll update this page with any updates.

I hope they end this show…too much lame stuff has gone on…its overkill at this point…some shows need to end before it tanks which is where this show is heading…it already sucks without Morgan and Hotch…just cancel this show already…
Please renew- very few shows I really love & learn from.
