‘Criminal Minds’ season 10, episode 22 preview: First look at ‘Protection’

We really wish that CBS was giving us a little bit of more to preview next week’s all-new episode of “Criminal Minds.” After tonight’s super-creepy and amazing good “Mr. Scratch,” what we are more or less going to be getting moving forward is an action-packed case, but one that does not sound like it is going to be anywhere near as strange or scary as tonight’s episode was. If you had a chance to watch it… good luck getting any sleep without checking your closet for monsters first!

What we can at least tell you is that fresh off of his role on “The Mentalist,” you are going to see Joe Adler appearing in this installment. Take a look at the synopsis below to at least get a general sense of what could be coming:

“When shooting victims are found in the Los Angeles area with possible links to criminal activity, the BAU searches for a vigilante UnSub, on CRIMINAL MINDS, Wednesday, April 29 (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.  Joe Adler (“The Mentalist”) guest stars as Danny Lee Watson.”

When watching a promo like this, what we do find ourselves wondering is this: Are we getting anything else in this particular installment besides this? Is there anything worthwhile that is getting brought to the table to make us excited? We don’t really get drawn in by the traditional promo anymore, mostly because this is the sort of thing that we have seen so many times before and it is very hard to get as hooked in with it. Hopefully, when the episode airs, it will thrill and delight us like tonight’s episode did.
