Exploring Nostalgia: The Latest Episode of Criminal Minds: Evolution Pays Tribute to Past Team Members
The latest episode of Criminal Minds: Evolution on Paramount+ pays homage to past team members who are no longer part of the series. The team gathers to celebrate JJ's son, Henry, getting into college, with a reference to Reid's offer to get him into Caltech. This callback harks back to JJ's request for Reid to ensure Henry's future in case anything happens to her and Will. The episode also sees the BAU learning about The Fan's visit to Voit in prison, prompting a discussion about breaking WitSec protocol, a nod to Hotch's decision to enter Witness Protection with his son Jack due to the threat of Mr. Scratch.
