Criminal Minds poster

Criminal Minds (2005)

The FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Unit investigates criminals by studying their behavior, motives and patterns rather than relying only on physical evidence. When a case points to a calculating or repeat offender, the profilers reconstruct the person’s way of thinking to predict the next move and prevent another attack. Experienced agent David Rossi, one of the BAU’s founders, returns to work with the team as it takes on new investigations across the country.
