As part of my fall TV preview, I’m counting down the 5 Season Premieres I Am Most Desperately Looking Forward To:

#4 Criminal Minds

Premieres Wednesday, September 24 @9pm on CBS

A classic season finale cliffhanger if there ever was on, who was in that black SUV?? So the last time we saw our profiler heroes, each of them was getting into identical government-issued black SUV’s…one of which was blown to smithereens…but we don’t know whose! Sadly, I sense I major cop-out coming here, like they’ll try to tell us it wasn’t one of the main characters’ SUV at all, or that even though we clearly saw the car like seriously explode & catch fire, miraculously everyone got away with only minor cuts & bruises! Or they’ll just blow up Will so they don’t have to deal with the whole JJ baby daddy storyline. I have some faith in the writers, who did a nice job recovering from Gideon’s departure last year, but it takes guts to blow up one of your main characters…& I’m just not seeing it. Also? Still no preview video? Really, CBS?

Stay tuned for the rest of my fall TV preview & drop me a comment to let me know what you’ll be watching this fall.
