1. Criminal Minds / Criminal Minds: Suspect Behavior / Criminal Minds: Beyond Border
Last but not least is Criminal Minds. This show offers a more thrilling plot of solving crime. Not because it is all packed in suspense, but because the premise of the show is an elite FBI squad catching serial killers. So in every episode, there are more than one gruesome murder committed by sick people.
The squad is called the BAU (Behavioral Analysis Unit). It consists of six special agents and one technical analyst. The team consists of various characters. Among them are Derek Morgan (portrayed by Shemar Moore) as the brawn and Dr. Spencer Reid (portrayed by Matthew Gray Gubler) as the brain.
The show started in 2005 and is still running on its 11th episode today. This show has another two series. Criminal Minds: Suspect Behavior was on air for one season only in 2011. The latest series, Criminal Minds: Beyond Border, is on air for its first season this year.
Matthew Gray Gubler is paid $100,000 per episode. It is relatively low compared to other cop shows, but it is only fair because Criminal Minds has seven main characters to share the screen time with.
