A shameless combination of international b-roll and Trump Era paranoia, CBS' new spinoff Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders is a pure distillation of xenophobia
March 18, 2016
In a time when even certain Presidential candidates are stoking the fires of racism and xenophobia, it's disheartening to see this show take such a clunky and overly simplistic view of the wider world.

Imagine the situation reversed - a show in which tourists to America were continually victimized in horrific ways - and you see the problem.

Recycling a lead from another franchise spinoff, CSI: NY's Gary Sinise furrows his brow blankly as Unit Chief Jack Garrett, somberly leading his generic team to exotic lands to rescue hapless travelers who've run horribly afoul of local maniacs.

It's a series that teases you to look away-you're better off never glancing at it in the first place.

It's basically the same show, just with a new location and a mix of new personalities. That sounds like a negative, but really, it's not.

Visually, the show plays like a nightmare edition of The Amazing Race.
