Criminal Minds is my favorite crime show of all time. It features incredible characters (and actors), tearjerking story lines, and some really creepy content. It's no surprise that it's still running after 13 seasons. Here's a list of reasons why you need to hop on Netflix and binge watch the whole show right now.
1. Hotch's seriousness
Don't let those eyes fool you. He's a big softie underneath that FBI title.
2. Dr. Spencer Reid
This doesn't need an explanation.
3. Miss Penelope Garcia
The BAU can't survive without her quirkiness and spunky outfits.
4. The cases in each episode
From unexpected endings to downright creepiness, each episode is unique and keeps you coming back for more.
5. The bond between the characters.
Due to the stress of the job, the members of the BAU have become one big family.
6. Reid's intelligence
Spencer is obviously the brains of the team, and we all love him for it.
7. Reid's rare anger
It's very rare to see, but it's pretty dang sexy.
8. David Rossi's wisdom
Sure, he's no Jason Gideon (from seasons one and two), but he's a good guy and can't be replaced.
9. Derek Morgan's sexiness
The smile...the muscles...how can you not fall for this hunk of a man?
10. Derek and Penelope's flirting war
It's amazing they never became a real couple...
11. Derek and Spencer's brotherly love
This is your classic older brother/baby brother relationship, but there's still something so sweet about it.
12. The deep moments
Each character was not afraid to show their vulnerable side (even Hotchner). If they cry, you cry.
13. I'm not kidding...
