Almost 20 years ago, the TV landscape was a completely different beast. Streaming was just a glimmer in the greedy eye of TV executives, and broadcast networks still dominated the industry. One genre in particular seems to have captured a wide audience: the police procedural. This was the era in which Law and order, CSIand their multiple spinoffs located in different cities, ruled the airwaves.
The highlight of these shows was Criminal minds on CBS. Over the course of an impressive 15 seasons, viewers joined the FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Unit as they hunted down serial killers across the country. Although it was never critically acclaimed, the series had a loyal fan base, which is why it was revived under a new title, Criminal Minds: Evolutionand the reunion of most of the original cast.
