I should have known this episode would be pretty big. The team heads to NY, Garcia gets to go, and a strange pattern of killings? Yes, it was big. Tonight’s third season finale of Criminal Minds was no letdown. It delivered with a face pace, high stakes for everyone, and some truths that finally got their due. For my review of Lo-Fi and possible spoilers, read more after the jump.
So, I didn’t realize that every Wednesday night on CBS, I’ve been looking at one of the Top 25 Fittest Guys in America on Criminal Minds, Shemar Moore. As we aspire to be healthy and fit, we have a bit more of that old-fashioned inspiration in the form of Shemar.
This issue of Men’s Fitness already hit the newsstands (yesterday). Although I’m sure it has at least one ripped image of him, it probably also has this exclusive interview.
Read more about the interview, and my take on it after the cut.

If you saw the finale of FBI drama Bones, you were either completely surprised, or you had your suspicions all along as to the identity of the Gormagon’s apprentice. Things are heating up, with Bones and Fox’s up-and-comer Fringe, which has an amazing preview trailer.
If you saw the Criminal Mind’s episode called In Heat, you probably noticed this fresh beautiful face, Tia Texada.
She portrayed the character, Miami Detective Tina Lopez, and someone who seemed to really notice Agent Morgan (Shemar Moore).
She was instrumental in helping the team catch the unsub, and leaving us wondering if Agent Morgan will take her up on that offer!
Check out the candid photo of the actors as they film In Heat, and more on Tia after the jump!

FBI Drama on TV this week
There are two more season finales this week, and hopefully they are so awesome, they’ll leave us with enough excitement to mull over until the Fall season starts again. I’m still excited about last week’s Numb3rs episode.
Bones
Monday, May 19, 10:00 PM (FOX)
The Pain In The Heart
(Third-season finale) A human jawbone appears at the Jeffersonian, and it looks like the work of the Gormogon. The disappearance of the silver skeleton from the lab suggests someone from their own team may be working as the serial killer’s apprentice. So, there seems to be a wolf in sheep’s clothing about!
In this fourth season finale of Numb3rs, Charlie’s colleague Phil is arrested and 
suspected of being a terrorist operative. Both Don and Charlie see this case differently, and realize they have opposing ideas they must confront.
Fox has officially announced Fringe as part of its schedule for the Fall season, 2008-2009. J.J.Abrams (Lost), Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman (Star Trek, Alias, Mission Impossible III) are the esteemed creators of this series. There’s been a lot of excitement and promise about the series since the project was first announced months ago. Read more info after the cut!

of my heroes (and every criminal’s nightmare), John Walsh, the host of America’s Most Wanted. He is totally excited about AMW catching its 1,000th criminal! It’s an amazing milestone. You can catch the story of this important capture on America’s Most Wanted: America Fights Back, on Saturday, May 17, at 9:00 PM ET on Fox.
In the interview, he had plenty to say, and these are some of the topics he touched on today:
Very soon I’ll have the interview posted, and you’ll be able to see how this man thinks, and what he has to say about crime fighting. Of all he said, today I thought it was important to pass on his comment, that AMW could never be the success it is without the fans who call in, or send tips to the show.
In this way, we are all fighting crime together. Although there is still a lot of work to do, things are getting better as far as legislation and the recognition of what we face.

FBI drama star Diane Farr is leaving Numb3rs for a very good reason…she and husband, Seung Yong Chung are expecting twins. Add these two babes to the 1 year-old named Beckett, and you have the makings of a nice sized family.
Besides preparing for the debut of the twins, she’s also got a plan in the works for a new series with Rescue Me writer, Peter Tolan. We wish her luck, and can’t wait to see what’s in store with any projects involving Peter Tolan.
There’s no official word yet on how the series is to deal with her absence. As Megan Reeves, she’s served as a psychological profiler, and head of the team when Don Eppes is away.
In a recent episode, she seemed to feel uncomfortable with Don’s (Rob Morrow) methods when it came to solving certain cases, and even had a talk with her love interest on the show, Dr. Larry, about her feelings. Last week, Don was concerned as Megan took an unaccustomed leave of absence. If you saw the previews, you know that something is coming this Thursday.

Fox’s Fringe May Be Headed To NY
If you live in New York, and are a fan of Fringe, Fox’s new FBI drama with a sci-fi twist may be calling New York its home base.
An expansion of new tax breaks put in place last month by Governor David Paterson are in effect, and extended, from 2011 to 2013. What this means for New Yorkers is more production projects heading your way. Other shows, such as Ugly Betty have already made the jump.
More On FBI & Crime Drama Departures
As you probably know, Gary Dourdan is leaving CSI due to a now very public personal drama for Dourdan involving drug use. Kudos to CBS bosses for trying to keep things on the down low for Gary. Numb3rs is saying sayonara to Diane Farr, who portrays Megan Reeves, as she’s expecting!
There has even been some speculation about Anthony LaPaglia on Without A Trace, as his character Agent Malone had a psych eval because he almost died and bungled a case. What this means for the long run is anyone’s guess, but I’d rather not think about him leaving the show.
