May 11, 200719 yr I don't miss an episode (thank you DVR). As to it being unrealistic...it is. However, it's entertainment, I'm not that concerned about it. As several of you know, my dad is retired ATF and he said the next time the FBI BAU goes on site to help with a profile will be the first time it happens. Regardless, I really like the show.
May 11, 200719 yr Wednesday nights at 9:00 just after Bones. I wouls say Wednesday at 9:00 on CBS after Jericho...but that is just me.
May 11, 200719 yr I love it too. I could poke zillions of holes in the show but I am satisfied with just being entertained. For you guys wanting to get into law enforcement I think one of the worst things you can do is major in Criminal Justice. If law enforcement doesn't work out you have zero to fall back on. I would consider a business degree, a marketing degree, or maybe even a teaching degree. The police department that hires you will teach you everything you need to know so it is better to be more well rounded.
May 11, 200719 yr Some of the episodes I watched were a little too disturbing. I mean there's already enough nut jobs out ther that don't really need any new ideas. With the nightly news being as depressing as it is I prettty much watch comedy or sports.
May 11, 200719 yr Author Wednesday nights at 9:00 just after Bones. As Hssb said, I believe it's after Jericho, but Bones is another underrated show. I don't care how realistic a show is, as long as I'm entertained it works for me.
May 11, 200719 yr Wednesday nights at 9:00 just after Bones. Thanks.:thumb: Regarding how realistic programs are; I just want to be entertained. If I was a real stickler for accuracy, I would never be able to get over the "bus jump" in the movie Speed.
May 11, 200719 yr I think that I might check it out after reading these bgp reviews :thumb: , I haven't watched Criminal Minds at all.

I just say it's after Bones because we always watch Bones then switch to Criminal Minds. Typical week of Tivo. Monday 2 1/2 men Tuesday NCIS Wednesday Bones then Criminal Minds Thursday CSI which is starting to get weird even for me. Then Shark. Deadliest catch to fill in all of the free time for me.
May 26, 200719 yr This is a very entertaining and watchable show, even though many episodes are not realistic. We always try to watch it and enjoy it.

I would consider a business degree, a marketing degree, or maybe even a teaching degree. The police department that hires you will teach you everything you need to know so it is better to be more well rounded. I'm actually considering more than just Law Enforcement. However, Criminal Justice is really the one subject that I enjoy learning about. I enjoy each and every Criminal Justice class I've taken (Aside from Statistics). Along with Law Enforcement, I'm considering even trying to get into a Law School if possible. I have a little over a year before I graduate. With a Criminal Justice degree I believe I could also look to work in Corrections as well as Law Enforcement.
May 27, 200719 yr That's great dude, I wanted to be a coach more than I wanted to carry a gun. But good luck with that.:thumb: :thumb: I couldn't think of anything else I wanted to learn about in College :lol:.
May 27, 200719 yr BTW, I didn't mean to start a conversation on how realistic it is. I believe while it is very unrealistic, it is 10 times more entertaining than many other shows in the same genre (ex. CSI).
May 28, 200719 yr I didn't start watching the show until mid-season. It followed a sporting event and I got hooked. I DVR the show every week now.
