CRIMINAL MINDS: META GOLDING FILLS IN FOR A.J. COOK


Criminal Minds: Well now we have an answer to what is going to happen when A.J. Cook (JJ on Criminal Minds) takes her maternity leave. We have a Criminal Minds replacement on their way to pitch in.

"A.J. Cook's due date draws near, and I'm hearing that her character will be "having the baby in nearly real time," meaning that A.J. and J.J. will be giving birth all but simultaneously on TV and in real life.

And on that note, I can tell you that there will be a new liaison on the team while A.J. Cook is off on her maternity leave. Meta Golding is signing on for the gig, and she'll appear on the series beginning at the end of October. I'm told it's "really cute how she's introduced." But if you love your Jennifer Jareau, you can breath easy, because Meta is just filling in, and J.J. will be returning to the team when she's done baby-makin'!"- Reporting by Jennifer Godwin E!Online
