Criminal Minds: Dead End (2023)
Season 16, Episode 10
3/10
An extremely flat finale :(
9 February 2023
This finale was everything I knew it would be. And that's a damn shame :(

From watching episode 9 I knew the finale would feel like episode 9 did: Detached, flat and perhaps derailed story wise.

There were never really a sense of urgency. The stakes didn't feel high and there wasn't really a payoff.

Shouldn't the viewer get a form of payoff from a finale? I mean sure there can still be a cliffhanger that it ends on. A "to be continued" sure but there's nothing here. Like opening an empty container..

Instead of focusing on the BAU doing what the BAU does. This turned into a bureaucratic cloak and dagger thing last minute?....Why?!

Why wasn't this what it was hyped to be? The BAU vs an Apex Predator serial killer...

I'm sure a following season can be amazing, but why couldn't this finale be as well...??
