Almost every season, Criminal Minds has to wait to find out until the last minute to find out if it will be renewed for another season. This year it does not. That is because CBS picked it up for a 15th season.
That is the good news, the bad news is it will be its last one. The 10 episodes will wrap the shows long run.
According to Deadline, Erica Messer asked CBS if the season finale for this season would be a season or a series finale? That caused the all big wigs to have a meeting with her. They all decided to let her write the show off the way it deserves.
What can we expect from the final episode? Messer told Deadline, “My gut is tearjerker probably because that’s how I’ll be feeling.” Then she added, “I think in honoring the series and saying goodbye, it’s probably going to feel like a little bit of a eulogy. So my guess is tearjerker more than anything else, that’s how I’d describe it.”
No word if the final episodes will air in the fall or be held until 2020. What we do know is that they will begin filming it as soon as they are done taping season 14’s 15th episode.
Criminal Minds joins The Big Bang Theory and Elementary that will be ending their runs too. Yet, Bull is still on their air…
