Criminal Minds: Evolution
Michael Yarish/Paramount+The BAU is back in action on Paramount+, and they’ll be reuniting with an old friend. Matthew Gray Gubler’s Spencer Reid is returning to Criminal Minds: Evolution in Season 18, which premieres on May 8. Gubler’s fan-favorite character — who’s been absent from the revival until now — is expected to appear in one episode. It’s a start! Other big TV premieres on the streamer this May include The Chi Season 7, which debuts on Paramount+ with Showtime on May 16, and Couples Therapy Season 4, which returns to Paramount+ with Showtime on May 23.
Meanwhile, if you’ve ever wanted to watch sports with David Beckham, Beckham & Friends Live is probably the closest you’ll ever get. The English athlete’s new series is a blend of a talk show and a sports broadcast; Beckham will give live commentary on an altcast of CBS Sports’ UEFA Champions League coverage, joined by — as it says in the title — his friends. The show kicks off on May 6. Plus, on May 26, Jennifer Lopez hosts the American Music Awards.
And if you’re looking for a great movie, don’t miss Mike Leigh’s Hard Truths, starring Marianne Jean-Baptiste, Critics’ Choice and BAFTA nominee for best actress. The film makes its streaming debut on May 12 on Paramount+ with Showtime. Plus, on May 13, the Jack Quaid action-comedy Novocaine — about a guy who literally can’t feel pain — makes its home streaming debut.
