Criminal Minds Producer Previews Season 8 Finale, Death by Replicator
23 hours ago | TVfanatic | See recent TVfanatic news »
Criminal Minds had been in the news a lot lately for reasons that go beyond mere storytelling, as a Season 9 renewal was delayed due to contract negotiations.
But the entire cast – including Kirsten Vangsness and A.J. Cook – is now on board for 2013-2014.
And following our exclusive chat with Joe Mantegna, TV Fanatic jumped on the phone with showrunner Erica Messer to talk about how these delayed deals could impact next season, along with what we’ll see when The Replicator makes a return in tonight's two-hour episode...
----------------------------------------
TV Fanatic: Do contract negotiations with the cast get in the way of your thinking about next season?
Erica Messer: It definitely affects it... the good news in not doing a cliffhanger finale is that I’m not tied to any particular storyline. We can do what we did at the beginning of this season, which is just pick up and go. »

Negotiations are Over – Criminal Minds Renewed for Ninth Season
12 May 2013 5:04 PM, PDT | Boomtron | See recent Boomtron news »
You know, I was sure things were going to go the other way when I first heard about the tricky negotiations going on between ABC Studios, CBS and the cast of Criminal Minds. With final offers being rejected and a season renewal dependent on certain cast members returning, I legitimately thought this could be the end for Criminal Minds. But things took a sudden reversal and everyone signed new deals and CBS announced the renewal of Criminal Minds for a ninth season. This just goes to show how little I understand this show and its cast members. I’m such a fool.
But, putting my foolishness aside, lets be happy the deals have been made and the show will be back for another season. Deadline reported the cast members whose contracts were up for renewal – those being Thomas Gibson, Joe Mantegna, Shemar Moore, Kirsten Vangsness and A.J. Cook – all signed new two-year deals. »

Following some extended contract negotiations, CBS has renewed Criminal Minds for a ninth season.

9 May 2013 4:01 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
CBS has picked up "Criminal Minds" for 2013-14, and the current Bau team will remain intact next season.
A CBS rep confirms to Zap2it that the entire cast will return for Season 9. Several cast members were at the end of their contracts this season, and A.J. Cook and Kirsten Vangsness had reportedly threatened to leave the show if their salaries weren't brought up to parity with those of their male co-stars.
Thomas Gibson, Joe Mantegna and Shemar Moore also have new deals in place (Matthew Gray Gubler and Jeanne Tripplehorn were already under contract). According to Deadline, Cook and Vangsness each got substantial raises that brings their pay much closer to what Moore and Gubler make.
"Criminal Minds" was one of only a handful of CBS shows not renewed back in March, in large part due to the contract negotiations. With deals now done, its place in CBS' lineup for next season is secure. »

Criminal Minds Negotiations Heat Up: Vangsness and Cook Could Walk
8 May 2013 4:20 AM, PDT | Boomtron | See recent Boomtron news »
Thing are starting to heat up in the cast negotiations for Criminal Minds. If Season 9 is going to happen, deals need to be made and producers ABC Studios and CBS are no longer messing around. While it was once thought signing a new two-year deal with showrunner Erica Messer would help bring the cast around to signing new deals, the issue of money has quickly made Messer’s deal seem like an empty gesture. Everybody wants what they feel they’re owed – some rightfully so – but few seem to be on the same page. To make things more complicated, a deadline was put on negotiations: deals need to be finalized by the end of Tuesday.
Deadline reported final offers had been sent to the cast whose contracts were up for renewal – Thomas Gibson, Joe Mantegna, Shemar Moore, Kirsten Vangsness and A.J. Cook. If the cast don’t accept the offers »

‘Criminal Minds’ Kirsten Vangsness & A.J. Cook To Leave Over Sexist Pay?
8 May 2013 3:56 AM, PDT | The Hollywood News | See recent The Hollywood News news »
It’s that time in of the year for television contract renewals and things seem to be getting pretty messy over at the Criminal Minds camp. Thomas Gibson, Joe Mantegna, Shemar Moore, Kirsten Vangsness and A.J. Cook’s contracts all finish after season eight of the long running CBS crime series, but it looks like Vangsness and Cook are willing to walk due to the fact that they are getting paid a considerably less amount then their male counterparts. Ouch.
It’s been no secret that Criminal Minds has been a little less friendly when it comes to pleasing the female audience and cast. Cook has already been let go by the show once, but returned when there was a fan outcry. The treatment of women on the show was the reason why Mandy Patinkin, who now stars in Homeland, left. He called the show “his biggest public mistake” saying: »

Criminal Minds Season 9: Who May Not Return?
7 May 2013 11:53 AM, PDT | TVfanatic | See recent TVfanatic news »
Criminal Minds is reportedly on the verge of a renewal.
It's also on the verge of losing two key cast members.
A new Deadline report confirms that Thomas Gibson and Joe Mantegna - whose contracts are up this spring - are likely to sign new deals with the CBS drama.
Shemar Moore, however, is butting heads with the studio over money, while Kirsten Vangsness and A.J. Cook have both turned down the latest offers.
An insider says the actresses have been negotiating as a tandem and are taking a stand against what they believe to be unfair treatment of female cast members on the show, as most make less than half the salaries of their male counterparts.
ABC Studios and CBS faced this same issue in 2010 when they ousted Cook and reduced the episodes of Paget Brewster, leaving Vangsness as the only remaining full-time actress.

Another 'Criminal Minds' Shake Up?
7 May 2013 6:09 AM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
"Criminal Minds" Season 9 could see another major cast shakeup.
Much of the cast of "Criminal Minds" has been in negotiations with CBS and producer ABC Studios for new Season 9 contracts -- which is why the show wasn't renewed when CBS announced early renewals of its other shows -- but now reports of final deals have surfaced with key members rejecting them. Thomas Gibson, Joe Mantegna, Shemar Moore, Kirsten Vangsness and A.J. Cook are all in negotiations.
TVLine reports Gibson and Mantegna are close to signing the new deal with Moore still in talks. However, Vangsness and Cook are reported to have outright rejected the offers and are seeking pay that matches their male co-stars. The two are said to be negotiating together. Matthew Gray Gubler and Jeanne Tripplehorn's contracts are not up for renewal.
Deadline reports the deals need to be signed by end of day Tuesday, May 7 for »

6 May 2013 6:40 PM, PDT | Zap2It - From Inside the Box | See recent Zap2It - From Inside the Box news »
There has been some drama lately surrounding "Criminal Minds," one of only a few shows at CBS not to have been either renewed or canceled for the upcoming television season.
Last week, showrunner and Ep Erica Messer inked a new deal with CBS that leaves her at the helm of the ship for a potential Season 9 and now Deadline reports that all the stars have received final offers from the network.
Reportedly, Thomas Gibson and Joe Mantegna are close to re-upping with the popular crime drama, while Shemar Moore is still ensconced in negotiations.
Furthermore, Kirsten Vangsness and A.J. Cook have reportedly turned down their final offers from the network -- they are unhappy with the female stars being paid so much less than the male ones and are willing to walk if there isn't something done to correct that.
