CBS has announced that the planted Criminal Minds<\/i> spinoff<\/a>, Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders<\/i>, has been picked up<\/a> for the 2015-2016 season. Gary Sinise<\/b> (Jack Garrett), Daniel Henney<\/b> (Matthew Simmons) and Tyler James Williams<\/b> (Russ “Monty” Montgomery) are listed under the show’s cast, but Anna Gunn<\/b> (Lily Lambert) is rumored<\/a> to be leaving the project. CBS also picked up a drama series called Limitless<\/i>, which includes<\/a> Sinise’s former CSI: New York<\/i> costar Hill Harper<\/b> (Dr Sheldon Hawkes) in the cast. (For more about Limitless<\/i>, click the previous link.)<\/p>\n

\nIn total, the network has already ordered<\/a> five new dramas and two new comedies for the fall; fans are still waiting for an announcement regarding the future of the original Criminal Minds<\/i>, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation<\/i>, CSI: Cyber<\/i>, NCIS<\/i> and NCIS: Los Angeles<\/i>. (NCIS: New Orleans<\/i> was renewed<\/a> for a second season back in January.)<\/p>\n

\nAfter the jump, you can find a collection of Criminal Minds<\/i>, NCIS<\/i>, NCIS: LA<\/i> and NCIS: NOLA<\/i> news and spoilers that have been shared over the past month. (Contains 120+ embedded videos, tweets and photos.)<\/p>\n

\nEntertainment Weekly<\/a> answered this question about the show, relating to the exit<\/a> of Jennifer Love Hewitt<\/b> (Kate Callahan) and AJ Cook’s pregnancy<\/a>:<\/p>\n

I\u2019m sad to hear Jennifer Love Hewitt won\u2019t be back on Criminal Minds<\/i>, but what does this mean for A.J. Cook, who is also pregnant? \u2014 Joshua<\/b><\/p>\n

\nShe\u2019s sticking around, as I mentioned in my postmortem. However, since the show is scheduled to go back into production around the time she\u2019s due, you may not see her when the show returns. Revealing Cook\u2019s pregnancy in the finale \u201chelps us answer why she\u2019s likely not in the first episode or so,\u201d says EP Erica Messer<\/b>. \u201cWe laid the groundwork for it, and then we can remind everybody in the premiere that she\u2019s on maternity leave.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\nFor the tenth year in a row, Sinise and Joe Mantegna<\/b> (David Rossi) will co-host the National Memorial Day Concert<\/a> live on PBS. The concert airs Sunday, May 24 at 8:00pm ET. (Check your local listings.) Here’s a tweet from Mantegna:<\/p>\n
