Janeane Garofalo is in negotiations to join CBS' Criminal Minds spinoff, while Andre Holland is set to co-star on the new NBC comedy series Friends with Benefits. Garofalo will play a new regular on the ABC Studios/CBS Studios-produced Criminal Minds spinoff, which was picked up for midseason. Also adding a new female regular following the axing of A.J. Cook is the original Criminal Minds series. Garofalo, who would co-star opposite Forest Whitaker, is coming off another drama series turn on Fox's 24.

This is wonderful. I never did care for her. I guess I won't be watching the spinoff. It was bad enough watching her on 24.

It was bad enough watching her on 24.

Poor man's Chloe.

Poor man's Chloe.
The best part of her being on 24 was watching Chloe put her in her place. lol

They would have been better off moving A.J. Cook over to the spinoff. She has plenty of fans already connected to Criminal Minds.
