The genre of procedural crime drama has littered television with its saturated and exhausting content. WhileLaw & Ordertakes the cake in that specific category,Criminal Mindsranks a close second to the ’90s series. Created by Jeff Davis, the latter was the first-ever project on television that delved deeply into the lives and works of professional criminal profilers or “mind hunters”.
Featuring an ensemble cast,Criminal Mindsis more than merely a show with a penchant for showcasing a criminal’s disturbed psyche and hazy morality. With a 15-year-long run, not only is the police procedural heavily decorated among the audience but also concerned with creative originality in a medium that was overshadowed for far too long by the more glamorous film industry.

The inimitable genius with an IQ of 187 and an eidetic memory, Spencer Reid madeCriminal Mindsiconic with his unique goofiness and attachment toward interrupting everyone’s sentences with facts. But while Dr. Spencer Reid made an everlasting impression on his audience, Matthew Gray Gubler did the same with his dating choices after he was seen going out withTaylor Swift.
The pair were first spotted at the pop star’s Fourth of July celebrations in 2013. Matthew Gray Gubler and Taylor Swift dated for a brief period despite Gubler describing himself as a self-proclaimed romantic at heart.

Speaking toGlamourin a 2015 interview, the actor revealed:
I don’t go on a ton of dates, but when I do, I try to make dates really spectacular. I fall in love with wonderful people and people that can’t be replicated. They are completely unique individuals, and those people are really rare and you can’t let them go. You gotta be friends with them forever because if I’m going to date someone, it’s a real big thing for me.
Now, Taylor Swift is involved in a high-profile relationship with the widely celebrated NFL athlete Travis Kelce who plays for the Kansas City Chiefs. Meanwhile, Matthew Gray Gubler does not seem to be dating anyone currently.
Criminal MindsDominates the Television Arena
When it comes to criminal profiling, no other name comes to mind more readily than that of Dr. Spencer Reid. Portrayed by the Emmy-winning actor Matthew Gray Gubler, his role inCriminal Mindsestablished the cornerstone and a fledgling curiosity among fans regarding the role of a criminal profiler.
However, in the broader context,Criminal Mindshelped carve out a niche in genre television on its own based on an original concept and unique creative outlook that had never been tried before. The police procedural became more popular than its contemporaries by a mile due to its consistently good content quality and ability to hold the audience’s imagination captive for 15 years.
