Tonight on the season finale of Criminal Minds at 9p on CBS, it seems like a normal Saturday until a bank is robbed. These are serial bank robbers (Tricia Helfer and Evan Jones), but this time they are adding murder to their list of crimes. BAU is called in to investigate and several of them will find their lives in danger especially when the bank is blown up with them inside. That is where the first hour of the two hour finale ends, but it is not the end of the story. Now they have to find the bank robbers, who are on the run, before they kill anyone else. And this time they are not going after any more banks, they are going after a member of BAU and that person might not be back for season two.
As crazy and exciting as the season finale is, it ends on a bittersweet note as we see Paget Brewster say goodbye for now. The actress asked to leave the show and they wrote an exit for her that leaves it open for her to return. One thing I will tell you is when we say so long to Prentiss it will be at a happy event. So instead of ending the year with a cliffhanger, we will see it end with a happily ever after instead.
Tune in for a season finale that will have you sitting on the edge of your seats and also going through a box of tissues tonight on CBS.
