Criminal Minds

I've never really been a big fan of Criminal Minds. When telling people that I am a major in Criminal Justice and Psychology, I always get the comment of "You want to do that Criminal Minds profiling kind of stuff, right?". I always take offense to this because for one, Criminal Minds is not real life and that's not how things work. When watching the clip, it reminded me that convicting a criminal or getting evidence is more than just looking at a person and making a profile. One really needs to go through steps in order to get to the bottom of things. I have nothing against Criminal Minds or any shows like it, but I really hoped that they depicted more of how things truly are. I know in some episodes they actually show how they need to go through steps in order to maintain evidence and such, but it's not the same.
