help Criminal Minds: Suspect Behavior FAQ
Why was Criminal Minds: Suspect Behavior cancelled after one season?
CBS aired it in 2011 and passed on a second season after soft ratings, ending the run at 13 episodes. It remains the shortest-lived of the Criminal Minds spin-offs.
Who stars in Criminal Minds: Suspect Behavior?
Oscar winner Forest Whitaker, who took the Academy Award for The Last King of Scotland, leads the cast as team chief Sam Cooper. The unit, designated 'Red Cell,' reports directly to the FBI director rather than through normal BAU channels.
How was the Suspect Behavior team introduced on Criminal Minds?
Via a backdoor pilot: the 2010 Criminal Minds episode 'The Fight' introduced Cooper's Red Cell team during the parent show's fifth season. Kirsten Vangsness's Penelope Garcia then appeared on both series, serving as the connective tissue.
Was Suspect Behavior the only Criminal Minds spin-off?
No. After it ended in 2011, CBS launched Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders in 2016, which itself lasted two seasons. The flagship later returned with Criminal Minds: Evolution in 2022.
