Criminal Minds season 15 is arriving on CBS earlier next year, and the network recently released a promo featuring danger and several problems. Particularly, it looks like AJ Cook's character, JJ, is in a deadly situation and she might be away from the team for a while.
JJ is in a life-and-death situation when Criminal Minds season 15 arrives. It was shown that she's lying in a hospital bed -- seemingly in a critical condition. Also, some recently released photos of the upcoming installment teased that other issues are waiting for her when she wakes up.
If JJ does survive the attack, she also has to face her personal issues -- especially with Reid. One of the biggest questions here is whether or not she meant what she previously said to him. That would probably be explored early run of Criminal Minds season 15, or as soon as JJ wakes up.
JJ and Reid have a long-standing history, and there's even a confession at the end of the previous season. That moment is a game-changer for them, and it's exciting to see what will happen now to them. It isn't also a secret that they do love each other; a love that can take many forms.
No matter what the future holds for them, their relationship would probably change in the new season -- either romantically or not. In addition, JJ and Reid are going to be there for each other, and since this is the final season of the series, there are likely more stories that are yet to unfold.
Meanwhile, the Big Bad in Criminal Minds season 15 is Everett Lynch; he was first introduced at the end of season 14. His real motive is yet to be seen, but his story will probably be explored this season. Viewers should be prepared for drama, as well as unexpected twists and turns in the final season.
It's also worth noting that Everett Lynch is a smart guy and willing to do everything he can just to get what he wants. This Big Bad is also one of the most dangerous criminals Rossi has attempted to track down. Thus, they need to do whatever they can to take down this person.
The good news is that Criminal Minds season 15 is arriving within a few weeks with a back-to-back premiere episode. The title of the first episode is "Under The Skin," while the second one is called "Awakening." These two episodes proved to be interesting as they'll focus on Everett Lynch.
Criminal Minds season 15 will premiere on Wednesday, Jan. 8, 2020, on CBS.
