See? Now that's how you find a way to both wrap up a season-long storyline and drop a major overarching conspiracy theory at the same time. And that's exactly what Paramount+'s Criminal Minds: Evolution was able to pull off with its season finale, "Dead End." The only problem? When you're left realizing that Zach Gilford's Voit is just the tip of a very evil iceberg that our team is heading towards and that there won't be an 11th episode? Ouch, that does make the wait more painful. Thankfully, Paget Brewster (Emily Prentiss) had some excellent news to share about the next season via Twitter that might make the wait a bit more bearable. "Guys, we are coming back so fast it'll make your head spin. Because of you! We start shooting in 2 months, thank you, thank you, thank you!!" Brewster tweeted to the fans, catching a lot of us by surprise in a very good way. So that would mark the start of filming at around the beginning of April, so start amping up the speculation now.

The streaming series is produced by ABC Signature and CBS Studios. Erica Messer (Criminal Minds, Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders) serves as showrunner, executive producer, and writer. Breen Frazier and Chris Barbour will serve as writers and executive producers, with Glenn Kershaw directing & executive producing and Mark Gordon serving as an executive producer.
