Criminal Minds

#6: Criminal Minds

 Criminal Minds  is an american police-procedural television show which premiered on september 22, 2005. The series follows a team of profilers from the FBI`s Behavioral Analysis Unit (BAU). The BAU is a part of the FBI`s National Center for the Analysis of Violent Crimes. The show is different from other police-procedurals due to the team profiling the "unsub" (Unknown Subject, is what they call the criminal when they dont know their identity instead of the crime itself. The show first premiered in 2005, it included FBI agents, Jason Gideon , Aaron Hotchner, Dereck Morgan and Dr.Spencer Reid. While working on a case in Seatle, agent Hotchner is asked to evaluate agent Gideon due to him being gone for over six months. The show has been ongoing for awhile and is currently in the tenth season. With new cast members such as David Rossi, Alex Blake and Kate Callahan and some leaving, such as Jason Gideon, Elle Greenaway and Emily Prentiss. Upon having left the cast, some of them returned as special guest stars, such as Paget Brewster,returned for the 200th episode of the series, and Mandy Patinkin`s character being mentioned. 

The show has generally positive reviews from critics andis a hit all over North America. 

In my opinion, Criminal Minds is one of the shows that you cannot hate. It has everything in each episode, romance, action, horror etc..  it keeps you on the edge of your seat in every episode.  The show is by far one of my favourite shows, no doubt about that. At the same time, I find the show a bit to graphic, I highly suggest that you dont watch the show if you do not like alot of graphic. I mean, they are not investigating violent crimes for no reason..

Once Upon A Time

Top 9 TV Shows: #7: Once Upon a Time

Once Upon a Time is an american fairy tale drama series. The show is set in the fictional town seaside town of Storybrooke, Maine, whose residents are really characters from numerous fairy tales, that were sent to the real world after a  really powerful curse that earased all of the memories they had about who they truly are. Each episode follows, a primary storyline in the real world and a secondary storyline that is usualy from the point of view of another character before the curse. The first season focuses on Snow White's daughter Emma Swan, who is approached at her door step by a boy who claims to be her birth son, whom she gave up for adoption ten years prior to the show, he explains to her the curse and that she is the only one who can break it. She dosent believe him for most of the season, even though strange happen due to her arrival, such as the town clock started working again. Through out the season, we meet different different characters in the show, such as the town mayor who is also known as the evil queen, she is the one who casted the curse due to reasons that are explained later on. Also we meet, Prince Charming, the 7 Dwarves, Snow White, Pinnochio, Rumplstilkinson, who knows about the curse and many more characters.

Honestly, Once Upon a Time is the last show I imagined myself watching. I thought it was a really pointless and stupid show, but when they say dont judge a book by its cover, really, dont. I started watching the show about a week ago and  so far i finsihed the entire first season and half of the second season. I never expected the show to have so many plot twists and the way they changed up the story of the characters makes the show so much more watchable. I also noticed how the show gives you closure when it comes to the background of some characters. Such as, getting to find out why the evil queen is so evil, and many other characters as well.

The show has recently started it's fourth season. If you want to start watching the show, which I highly recommend. You can watch it on: Www.couchtuner.com

Ravenswood

#8 on the Top 9: Ravenswood

Ravenswood is an american teen, supernatural drama, mystery thriller televison series created by I.Marlene King and Joseph Doughtry. It is a spin off to hit teen mystery thriller, Pretty Little Liars. Set in the fictional town of Ravenswood, Pennsylvania, the series follows the lives of five teens who are brought together by a deadly curse thats been in their town for generations. together they look deeper into the town's dark history to solve the mystery. all while risking their lives doing so. Ravenswood is first introduced during the special Hallowen episode of a Pretty Little Liars, where the four liars are in Ravenswood and they cross paths with the main characters of Ravenswood. even assuming that one of them was their stalker "A".  At the end of the episode Caleb Rivers, (aka Hanna's boyfriend from PLL) decides to stay in Ravenswood and investigate after seeing his face on a tombstone. In the pilot episode Caleb helps a girl named Miranda reunite with her uncle, who is her only family. After several fights with her uncle, her and Caleb storm off, agreeing to flee from Ravenswood. While walking in the park at night discussing their escape, A storm starts and they end up getting a lift from three other kids,(also the final three main characters.). As they are driving, they spot a dead looking figure in the middle of the road and things take a turn when the car falls off a bridge and into a lake. Can you guess who makes it out alive?

Why did I choose Ravenswood?

I chose to rank Ravenswood as number 8, because even though I sometimes have to watch it from behind my pillow, I really like all the suspense, mystery and how the show always manages to keep me on the edge of my seat, but at the same time im not at all a fan of supernatural shows, I dont like shows that have no sense of reality at all in its story. The show is a really good show. Its just not my favourite.

#9: CSI Miami.

               CSI:Miami's logo. 

One of the two spin off shows of the hit show "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation". CSI Miami is crime television show that follows a team of detectives/ forensic scientists from the Miami Dade Police Department as they race to find a the killer/ kidnapper or criminal using forensic science and clues left at the crime scene. Not only is the show filled with action and drama. The main characters also have there own storyline that may sometimes intertwine with the case. For example.. Oh wait.. I guess you'll have to watch the show to find out!;) 

I chose CSI Miami as #9 on the list, because as much as I love the show and the storylines, and the cases they work. Sometimes I feel like the action in the episode isn't enough and I'm not that big of a fan of the "science" part of forensic science.
