I think where we ’re going with it , if anything , it ’s going to be like , you know , Evolution — Criminal Minds : Evolution . Yeah , if you think you were stir up before , we may be need it to another level .
But I ’ve always been a defender of the fact that our show establish that naturalistic view to what these real men and women do . Because , you do it , very often we learn , ' Oh , how can you … Do n’t you get nightmares ? ' Or ' Does n’t it commove you to do this show ? ' No . My feeling is it does n’t disturb me at all . Because when they say ' cut , ' that person lying there with the ax in his head pops it up and die over to craft services and catch a sandwich . The ones I worry about are the substantial adult male and woman of the FBI and other law enforcement agency around the world who have to really do this for a living .
