Is Criminal Minds Season 16 Happening?

Despite the show’s great reviews, there are various reasons why Criminal Minds may have been terminated at first. The network wanted to look towards news shows. However, EW reported that the series could return for Criminal Minds Season 16.
But this time, the show is heading towards the direction of OTT release. Due to time limits on television networks, CBS planned to replace Criminal Minds with a new programming. Criminal Minds Season 16 will reportedly air on Paramount+. which is a rebranded incarceration of CBS all access. Representatives from CBS Studios, Paramount+, and ABC Signature, on the other hand, have made no comments or statements on the show’s probable return for Criminal Minds Season 16.
What To Expect From The Next Season?
In the last season finale of Criminal Minds, fans saw Rossi and the squad chasing for “The Chameleon”. Meanwhile, Spencer recovered from his life or death experience. Each character talked about their future plans at the gathering, which also served as Rossi’s retirement celebration. And as another “selfless action,” Penelope left her position at the BAU to work for a non-profit. The season ended with the colleagues reflecting on some of the joyful moments from their past.
Criminal Minds’ case of the week approach was one of the viewers’ favorite things about the series. If Criminal Minds Season 16 is a limited series, it would be unusual for the creators to modify the formula now.

Meanwhile, the writers of the series can also try to experiment a little with Criminal Minds Season 16, that they were not able to do in the previous season.
