I did not know about this. Thanks. If the show is not airing on channel 3 or 4 ... forget it. Comcast cut 90% of my channels until I get a stupid box thing. which is not going to happen.

Well, do you get Criminal Minds on CBS Wednesday nights? It's gonna be on right after...........

I am watching the two Fisher King episodes end of Season 1, beginning of Season 2. Been really depressed, not even getting out of bed, Minds is sorta taking my mind off it.

I'm watching the Season 1 Episode "The Tribe" great episode, pretty funny too. It goes into Naative American culture and is really educational too......

yep I do. alright then. cool.

This might be Matthew Gray Gublers last season!

why? This might be my last season! lol .. j/k unless I get knocked out by someone for posting what I just did ..

I don't understand why they have to mess with a good show.

money, people, the public, competition, change.

Ya, but they need to quit messing with my show! It's getting irritating.

I know. Change is inevitable. if there's one thing I've learned it's that nothing EVER stays the same ...

NCIS pretty much has! It also has one of the best ratings on TV and I think it is because of that.

No idea. Hasn't that been on longer than Criminal Minds? I think that the actors/actresses have more stability in NCIS.

Yea, it's on Season 8 where Minds is on 6. Actually Minds would have more stability or atleast should.

Prentiss might quit because of the cuts. See what I mean ... it's all about money. NCIS has high ratings so everyone is able to keep making that money. They have more stability that way.

So what caused the shakeup, according to Tassler? Would you believe that developing the Criminal Minds spinoff Suspect Behavior caused them to take a second look at the bureaucratic structure of the FBI and therefore reconsider the cast structure of Criminal Minds? Because that's the line Tassler is selling...

When asked if the cuts were in fact due to budget reasons, as some have speculated, Tassler said, "I wouldn't say that it was just budget reasons. I would say that over the past couple of years a lot of shows have taken a look at adjusting their casts, their castmembers, sometimes for budget reasons, and other times—in this case one of the factors we building a spinoff and we had [Criminal Minds:] Suspect Behavior and we looked at sort of the evolution of the franchise, what this division of the FBI, how they actually did their jobs...and that did give us an opportunity to reflect that back on the design and the structure of the team on Criminal Minds.

"So there were discussions about what role did A.J. play, what role did Paget play—is there an opportunity here with the spinoff to look back at the original show? How did we feel about that brand? How could we evolve the roles of the agents in the original show?

"We hope Paget stays with the show, she has the option to stay and we would like her to continue on with the show, but I can tell you that across the board there are discussions about castmembers changing—in fact it's more often than is necessarily shared by the press. It's the nature of the evolution of any show."

Uh-huh.

Cook, who plays public affairs agent Jennifer Jareau, was written off the series earlier this season; Brewster, who plays Behaviorial Analysis Unit agent Emily Prentiss, no longer appears in every episode.

Ummmm, they announced last season that this was going to be her last season and she was going to be in only a few episodes.

Who cares if it's not 100% accurate. It is a fictional show.
