'Criminal Minds' Season 10 Cast News, Episode 7 Spoilers: The BAU Goes Social on 'Hashtag'
Recent cast news about the hit police procedural drama series "Criminal Minds" Season 10 suggests that actor Ben Savage will be playing a younger version of a character in the show.
As reported by TV Guide, it indicated that Savage will be playing the much younger version for Mandy Patinkin's Jason Gideon.
The Senior Supervisory Special Agent was last seen in the third season when he took leave following a series of emotionally troubling cases that seriously affected him. Viewers saw him leaving a diner and driving off the road.
Savage's involvement, as stated in the report, would be a flashback in the golden days of the BAU profiler and will be featured in the 13th episode of the program.
Executive producer Erica Messer dished out some details.
"I've wanted to go back to how the BAU all started and now being in Season 10, it feels like it's time," he told TV Guide. "I'm really excited about it to show our heroes from the beginning in the bomb shelter in Quantico. [Rossi's] memory drives us into the flashback, but it's also very reflective for the whole cast. It's not a typical episode."
Meanwhile, a preview for the upcoming episode titled "Hashtag" showed the BAU diving into the world of social media to track down a killer whose targets are popular social network users.
The teaser started off with a young attractive girl posing in front of her mirror and all of a sudden, she was attacked by a masked man. The dead victim was then photographed by the criminal. Several others, including a young male, were also victimized by the murderer.
"The unsub only has to look on the Internet for a seed of potential victims," Spencer says in the teaser video.
A synopsis from Hollywood Hills went on to add that Morgan and Savannah will also be dealing about their relationship troubles.
"Criminal Minds" Season 10, Episode 6 titled "Hashtag" airs this Wednesday, Nov. 12 at 9 p.m. on CBS.
