Last week everyone had some unfair competition with the Academy Awards, who trounced everyone big time!
As far as our favorite scripted action, drama, cop shows go, NCIS trounced everyone else, Criminal Minds as a mid-pack runner in the top 25 and such. Last week’s Criminal Minds episode was creepy, in a great way, delving into darker criminals from society.
