The BAU has a new Unit Chief! Recently in an interview with Starry Mag, Criminal Minds star Kirsten Vangsness revealed that our favorite Special Agent, Emily Prentiss (Paget Brewster), will replace Aaron Hotchner (Thomas Gibson) as the BAU Unit Chief. "Its’s great that she [Brewster] is back! It’s neat because the fan’s reflection of that was, “Oh my gosh! She’s back,” which is pretty much what we were all doing." said Vangness. "And I just found out the day everyone found out when everyone else did. She couldn’t tell anyone. It makes a lot of sense that she is now the head of the team. This is our first episode with this happening, but it is just lovely." This comes weeks after it was announced that Paget Brewster had been promoted to Series Regular and weeks after it was revealed that the CBS crime drama had been looking for two characters to replace former star, Thomas Gibson, who was fired in August after an on-set altercation with a writer. Brewster will return to the show in the 12th Season's 3rd episode "Taboo" which airs Wednesday, October 12, a week after Gibson's last episode. Catch the Season 12 premiere of Criminal Minds on Wednesday, 28 Sept at 9/8c on CBS.

WELL IF SHE IS ONE WHO'S THE OTHER ONE GOING TO BE? IT'S NICE SHE IS RETURNING BUT I DON'T KNOW IF IT WILL BE ENOUGH TO SAVE THE SHOW? MOST PEOPLE THINK OF THOMAS WHEN YOU SAY CRIMINAL MINDS.

SQUEE! Makes perfect sense as (as far as story lines go) she is the most experience for the job after RUNNING Interpol, and Rossi would be remiss in taking it even if asked because he's found a daughter and family he never knew he had and is just beginning to rekindle a love love that he lost due to ego and dedication to "the job".
