Criminal Minds 1905: Friendly Fire

We now remember why Dr. Redmond checked out of watching Dexter! It's all bad writing - DUH!

Paget shouldn't have responded the way she did but she has apologized. After Dan reads the article out loud (read it at link below), we can understand why Paget was upset. Paramount+'s Criminal Minds Format Change Finally Backfires By Shealyn Scott. Published Jun 20, 2026, 7:15 PM EDT  

You just needed to call the mint!!! and other quibbles & eye rolls take up most of the episode. We still enjoyed the episode - love that Brian :-)

We accepted Arthur's origin story in the beginning. Clearly, we are  not so sure by the time we get to the end of this episode of PCM.

We love Paul F. Thompson! Just a great episode.

Good episode, although we did have a bunch of quibbles!

We liked these 3 episodes a lot better than the first 3. Dan gives all sorts of spoilers, then reminds us that this is a "re-watch podcast".

The first 35 minutes are taken up with complaints about bad writing, lack of continuity and contrivances. What's happening? John Lithgow is brilliant.

We loved it, loved it! We do a little fan fiction discussion concerning Voigt's pre-10 years-old childhood.

To prepare you for the genius of John Lithgow before we tackle The Trinity Killer.
