Joe Mantegna is going to replace Mandy Patinkin on Criminal Minds.

Variety story. Supposedly there will be details about the new character posted on the CM Fanatic blog but I haven't seen any yet.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Huh. I like him enough to make me give it a shot, but I can't really see it.

Oh, Sera Gamble also confirms that Ben Edlund wrote the episode that introduces Bella - so episode 4, I believe.

Huh. That could have been interesting too. JM seems sort of soft and normal but I think it might be interesting to see what direction they take the head guy role and if he plays against type or not.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Don't forget JM originated a lot of Mamet roles, so he can get tough when needed.

They're both interesting casting choices that I have a hard time picturing. Clearly, this new character is going to be very different from Gideon.

Well, just thinking about the two JM roles I'm most familiar with: Mr. Girardi on JoA and that movie exec on Starter Wife - they were v. different from each other.
