Criminal Minds continues to expand its audience base. The show that critics said wouldn't make it through its first year has proven itself to be a solid gold gem. Congrats to Edward Allen Bernero, Executive Producer of Criminal Minds, for only employing the best and the brightest and for showing the critics that TV fans will always pick a well written and acted show over flashy drek!
