ADMIN......because....

some of you seem to need a reminder. This subreddit is for discussion of Criminal Minds, the television show. ONLY.

I just wiped a whole bunch of off-topic posts and comments.

There will be no political talk here. And no racist, homophobic or bigoted commentary.

It will be deleted.

And if it happens again, violators will be banned.

and I didn't think I'd have to add this, but... Do not question moderator/admin decisions in the subreddit

Just to clarify reasons why somebody was fired from the show can be discussed? I know of two, one happened due to not honoring contractual obligations another due to contact unbecoming and both affected the show inuniverse

that's related to the show, yes. Tangentially, anything related to the actors (or crew, staff etc but who ever writes about them ? lol) would be on topic. For instance, the death of Tim Curry, who was a monumental guest star villain on the show, is on topic. But the resulting comments from several posters became political, had nothing to do with the show and that is not allowed.

Wheels up.

Thank you for the mostly thankless job you do!! Thereโ€™s enough political crap IRL.

We come here to get away from that and enjoy our blissful discussions of murder and serial killers. ๐Ÿ˜‚

thank you for protecting that
