Profiling Criminal Minds

We really really still hate Harry!

We spoil the whole movie but we still want everyone to watch (if you haven't already). We just loved it!

We agree that this is the worst season of Dexter! Has it finally reached the bottom?

We have lots of things to complain about. However, Dr. Redmond definitely missed something where all the clues were there!

The slow ride downhill begins. We ask the question: "Is Dexter the anti-Christ?" However, ghost Brian is back!

What happened to this show?????????? We try to figure it out.

For the most part, it is a well-written/acted film. However, great jump (& Josh Stewart's performance) scares don't make up for the fact that the heroine has no backstory. Sheila went back and made sure that the music she complained about, was, in fact, a gospel hymn: "Precious Lord, take my hand, lead me home". We will call if a secular homage?? (no copyright infringement - it was written in 1937)

We are stunned by how much we love this season of Dexter. Thank you "Original Sin".

We loved the season - lots of notes but we still loved it.

Will we ever find out what Dexter's problems with religion are?

Loved The Fan. Loved that plot points were addressed BUT at one point, Dan was aghast and Dr. Redmond stopped the stream because she couldn't believe what she heard.

Stunning!!!!!!! Everyone needs to go and watch this!!!!!!!!!! Here's the film company logo Dan was talking about in re: Odysseus' archery skills - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4fVmLoexuVQ

We already think this is a better season than season 4. Will it continue?? Stay tuned!

The most contrived episode of Criminal Minds in memory - honestly!! But WE LOVED IT!!! Find out why.

Dexter's life has been completely upended and he just doesn't understand that grieving takes a lot of different forms. 

This was such a creepy episode. Loved it!! And we can't wait for more about Voit and The Fan.

Josh Stewart appears in CSI S4E18 and CSI Miami S7E14. Of course, he is great. We spend most of our time finding out that we actually really liked CSI Miami because it has heart, not just beautiful scenery. CSI, on the other hand, is too dark and soulless. 

And the hits keep coming. Kudos to the casting team - The Fan is perfect.

We now remember why Dr. Redmond checked out of watching Dexter! It's all bad writing - DUH!

Paget shouldn't have responded the way she did but she has apologized. After Dan reads the article out loud (read it at link below), we can understand why Paget was upset. Paramount+'s Criminal Minds Format Change Finally Backfires By Shealyn Scott. Published Jun 20, 2026, 7:15 PM EDT  

You just needed to call the mint!!! and other quibbles & eye rolls take up most of the episode. We still enjoyed the episode - love that Brian :-)

We accepted Arthur's origin story in the beginning. Clearly, we are  not so sure by the time we get to the end of this episode of PCM.

We love Paul F. Thompson! Just a great episode.

Good episode, although we did have a bunch of quibbles!

We liked these 3 episodes a lot better than the first 3. Dan gives all sorts of spoilers, then reminds us that this is a "re-watch podcast".

The first 35 minutes are taken up with complaints about bad writing, lack of continuity and contrivances. What's happening? John Lithgow is brilliant.

We loved it, loved it! We do a little fan fiction discussion concerning Voigt's pre-10 years-old childhood.

To prepare you for the genius of John Lithgow before we tackle The Trinity Killer.

Criminal Minds is back and still makes us happy! And also your Canadian hosts talk about the CRTC?

Season 19 starts tomorrow!!! We are so excited!

Dan and Dr. Redmond disagree on whether Miguel would have become a serial killer on his own. "Dexter has real problems with Ghost Harry's betrayal".

We end up talking about The Punisher and vigilantism again at the end of this episode. So is morality or the lack thereof our reason for watching Dexter?

Dexter's search for family turns to a discussion of The Punisher by the end.

Wherein Dexter freaks out over becoming a father and maybe finds a "bestie".

My bad, it's Monday. We watched the myth making around Entebbe with 2 more movies. Then, we rank the 4 Entebbe movies. 

We always love a chance to talk about The Mentalist. Josh Stewart does, of course, give his usual great performance.

No politics! Just a short missive from Dan who just got off the plane from London.

On a good note, Dexter is a really good boyfriend and stepdad!

We want to see the movie, "Doakes"! We continue to be amazed at the difference "Original Sin" has made to our viewpoint.

Yes - don't write! It is Menahem Golan not Menahem Golum (Freudian slip). Dan was right, it is Yonatan or "Yoni". Sheila is having a hard time with all of this. And the peace talks are already over!

Could you undo years of gaslighting? Sigh. Shades of Season 17 (the Gold Star year) of Criminal Minds.

We gush and gush. If you are looking for something to watch, this should be it!

Impressed with the portrayal of PTSD and Rita's handling of Dexter's addiction problem. Doakes is on the trail!

RIP Chuck Norris, you weren't a good actor, but we loved Walker: Texas Ranger. Also, this movie is crazy propaganda and mythmaking!

Two more bit parts for Josh Stewart - although one was pretty obviously supposed to be a recurring character before homophobia changed the show's direction!

Did we just find the movie that inspired Archer? I don't know... maybe? Also, it's surprisingly relevant to today's news!

We are so surprised with our shifting views on Dexter. It really makes us want a Season 2 of "Original Sin".

Turns out that the best Game of Thrones thing has happened, and it's just getting started!

If only Dexter had continued with Therapy. Our biggest question: "Why didn't Brian just marry Deb?"

Still impressed by Dexter - much to our surprise!
