Netflix has decided to remove Criminal Minds from its streaming service in the UK.
Criminal Minds is leaving Netflix, with the series set to be removed from the streaming service on November 21st. Netflix confirmed that it would be removing Criminal Minds and other CBS shows as part of a deal with CBS Corporation. It’s not yet clear if other Netflix regions will lose access to Criminal Minds, but it seems likely that they will.
Criminal Minds is a crime drama series that has been running since 2005. The show focuses on an elite team of FBI profilers who analyse the country’s most twisted criminal minds and anticipate their next moves before they strike again. The show has been a big hit for CBS and was renewed for two more seasons back in 2018, which means that it will end after season 15.
It’s not yet clear why Netflix is removing Criminal Minds from its library, but there are some clues about what might have happened behind the scenes. One of these clues comes from an interview with one of the show’s stars, Thomas Gibson, who plays Aaron Hotchner on the show. In this interview, Gibson revealed that he had been fired from his role as a result of punching one of his co-stars during an argument over creative differences.
