It`s a one-month-early Christmas present as we take a look back at Criminal Minds Season 5!
This was a weaker than usual season for the team, with two zero-scoring episodes! Is this a record? That sounds like something I should check!
Anyhoo, the season-ender was a cliffhanger, and therefore not scored, but the rest of the episodes involved a crime being solved, and therefore count. The total score for the season was 45/220, for a 20% profiling rate. Truly, from a psychological standpoint, this was the worst season of Criminal Minds.
The best episode, surprisingly, was the Suspect Behaviour spinoff showcase, in which the team actually used a description of the kind of person they're looking for in an environment small enough that it could help identify the killer - when there were no other clues available! Everything else about that episode was egregiously bad, but at least there were a couple of positives.
The worst episode, naturally, was '100', in which instead of catching the villain, he phoned Greg and invited him over for a fistfight. Yikes.
See you back here next time for the resolution of the Tim Curry cliffhanger! Will he kill that little girl? Almost certainly not! Will he be captured or killed? Um... duh?

Hi there! I really enjoy your CM deconstructing reviews!
Just one thing about season 5... You never published your review for ep 13. Not that it would really change the overall rating of the season... but just so the picture is complete and also the fun of reading it, it would be great if you publish it. Thanks!
