Criminal Minds is a media franchise of American television programs created by Jeff Davis. Its police procedural series follow the members of the Behavioral Analysis Unit of the FBI, who work out the profile of an unknown offender, called the unsub, instead of concentrating on the crime alone. The original series aired on CBS from September 22, 2005 to February 19, 2020, and Paramount+ revived it in 2022 as Criminal Minds: Evolution. Two spin-offs followed, Criminal Minds: Suspect Behavior in 2011 and Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders in 2016, which CBS canceled in 2017 after two seasons. Paramount+ also ordered a true crime series, The Real Criminal Minds, in 2021, and a video game based on the show appeared in 2012. Taken together the three television series amount to 403 episodes across 22 seasons.
