Criminal Minds

Criminal Minds fans, mark your calendars as CBS sets the date for release of the Season 3 DVD.  On September 16, fans will be able to relive the suspense and action that surrounded FBI's Behavioral Analysis Unit (BAU) at Quantico, Virginia. As of this moment, no further details about the DVD set has been released, although it is expected to include some bonus features apart from the entire 20 episodes of the recent season.

Season 3 premiered on September 26, 2007 but was unfortunately interrupted by the writers' strike.  It aired its last pre-strike episode on January 23 and returned with the remaining new episodes on April 2, following the resolution of the strike.

Criminal Minds follows the adventures of team of profilers who analyze America's most twisted criminal minds.  In order to track down a serial killer, this elite team tries to anticipate the criminal's next move before they strike again.

The third season follows team leader Jason Gideon (Mandy Patinkin), replaced by David Rossi (Joe Mantegna), following the tragic death of his friend Sarah, at the hands of a serial killer at the end of Season 2.  In the DVD, viewers learn more about this storyline, while reuniting with some notable guest stars over the season, including Jamie Kennedy (The Jamie Kennedy Experiment), Nicholas Brendon (Buffy the Vampire Slayer), Nicholle Tom (The Nanny), and Steven Culp (Desperate Housewives), just to name a few.

More importantly, viewers will witness again the explosive season ender that has left fans wondering who among Penelope Garcia (Kirsten Vangsness), Jennifer Jareau (A.J. Cook), and Will LaMontagne (Josh Stewart) will survive.  Of course, fans will only find out when Criminal Minds returns for a fourth season.

Criminal Minds also stars Thomas Gibson as Aaron Hotchner, Matthew Gray Gubler as Spencer Reid, Paget Brewster as Emily Prentiss, and Shemar Moore as Derek Morgan, just to name a few.
