Beware – this is a brain washing attempt, do not watch if you do not have firm moral values! - It once started out as a very good crime/police show with likeable characters with integrity analysing crimes. It was successful, and it looks like the success drove the writers/producers mad, so they thought they could turn this crime show into a vehicle to transport their own personal moral views. Now it’s an unbearable BS brimming with the imagined moral superiority of people who seem to have no moral at all. Beside being discriminating in the casting (obviously no white actors are allowed as new lead cast members anymore) and constant baby advertising (in a world with too much people and children in need in every country), it’s all a big search for people who fit as and are being built up as mega villains so the creators, the characters and the viewers can hate them. In episode 11-5 the wonderful, talented artist Morpheus/Ellen is not being saved and killed, because she had not stopped an accident(!!) that her baby had while she was painting – ergo: villain, ergo: deserves to/must die. In the next episode however, the villain, a teenage boy, is being shot without mercy allegedly to save the hostage by all means. He is being lied to to get his attention and then without trying to talk to him/talk him out of it, Dr. Tara, whose behind must be painted pink from all the lipstick because Garcia, the most moral character so far, is kissing it incessantly, just shoots him. If a white cop had shot a black teenager like this, the Afro-American community would have rioted and they would have been right to do so except that it does not matter which color the shooter has or which color the victim (yes, victim) has, because this shot was NOT justified, the Criminal minds creators just sell it to us as justified, because their morally questionable message is: he is a villain (and a white one even,) so he can be shot, no questions asked. Many of the (serial) killers/villains are even European, since this way the villains are a) white and b) not American fellow citizens. I welcome if shows embrace the moral responsibility they have in showing different ethnicities/sexual tendencies/genders/nationalities/… on both sides of the good and bad continuum. But this is not moral, not responsible, not about equality or justice, this is the complete opposite, this is a little arrogant, ignorant, power hungry, narcissistic group imposing their „moral values“ on the world, this is brain washing political BS, hypocritical, wrong, onesided, depraved, and has no place in a TV show about investigating crimes. It actually turns the show into the/ a real crime. No matter one cast member after the next is quitting. No wonder Thomas Gibson went against the producers (I would have expected more to). This is how conceit and arrogance and ignorance can destroy a once good concept. Don’t buy it (uncritically)!

A must see crime show. When the writers go back to catching killers it's a good night in. The mixture of humor from Joe Mantegna as David Rossi is at time priceless,

Criminal Minds: Season 11 is the worst season of this show, because of its lack of interesting characters, predictable end, unoriginal plot and bad-written episodes like Morgan's left.
