Series 7 - 11. True Genius

True Genius
Radio Times
Review by:
Geoff Ellis

Spencer Reid (Matthew Gray Gubler) is a doctor three times over — maths, chemistry and engineering — but what would you do in your spare time if you had an IQ of 187? Now he wonders if he’s doing enough with his brilliant mind. He could take a cue from crime writer Patricia Cornwell, who makes a guest appearance as herself, speaking at a crime seminar.

But that’s just a sideshow; the main event is a series of murders that suggest the Zodiac Killer is back. We’ve seen a couple of so-so episodes recently, so this should put us firmly back in the series’ zone of excellence.

About this programme

11/24. A series of murders in San Francisco bearing the tell-tale signs of the infamous Zodiac Killer, leaves the agents wondering if the notorious serial killer has returned. Meanwhile, Reid contemplates exploiting his superior abilities. Matthew Gray Gubler stars.
