The procedural drama Criminal Minds: Evolution has been renewed for a final season that will air on Paramount+. The show will end with Season 20, though no official premiere date has been announced. However, the network confirmed the season is scheduled to debut in 2027.
The revival of the franchise debuted on the streaming platform in 2022 after the original Criminal Minds concluded its run on CBS following 15 seasons. Season 19 of Evolution aired between May and July earlier this year. In total, the Criminal Minds franchise will have spanned two decades across both broadcast and streaming platforms.
Showrunner and executive producer Erica Messer commented on the series’ conclusion, acknowledging the cast, crew, and writing staff for their contributions throughout the show’s extended run. Messer also highlighted the dedication of the global fanbase in sustaining the series through multiple seasons.
The cast for Evolution includes returning franchise members Joe Mantegna, A.J. Cook, Kirsten Vangsness, Aisha Tyler, Adam Rodriguez, and Paget Brewster, alongside newcomer RJ Hatanaka. The series centers on the FBI’s Behavioral Analysis Unit, a team of profilers who analyze criminal behavior in pursuit of dangerous offenders. The show is produced by 20th Television and CBS Studios, with executive producers including Breen Frazier, Chris Barbour, Glenn Kershaw, Stacey Hardt, and Mark Gordon.
