Over the past few months, even dating back to pre-pandemic times, I’ve watched seven seasons and change of the CBS procedural Criminal Minds. The show ended its remarkable 323-episode run just last month, and I’ve never come close to watching a single episode at or near its original air date. After absorbing some 130 episodes of cops chasing serial killers into my eyeballs, I’ve come to the conclusion that Criminal Minds is not a very good TV show—but I have no plans to stop watching it. This is a binge in the medical sense.

Here are 32 thoughts and observations that should explain why I can no more praise Criminal Minds than I can put it to bed.
