You can watch Criminal Minds on several major streaming platforms, though availability varies by country and can change over time.

Main streaming options (as of 2025–2026)

  • Paramount+ – This is the primary home of Criminal Minds and usually carries the full run of the original series in many regions, plus the revival Criminal Minds: Evolution in markets where it’s available.
  • Hulu – In the U.S., Criminal Minds has been available to stream on Hulu, often as part of a broader TV package.
  • Disney+ / Star (select regions) – In some countries outside the U.S., the series appears under the Star hub on Disney+ as part of its more adult TV catalog.
  • The Roku Channel / Pluto TV – Certain seasons or curated episodes can sometimes be streamed for free (with ads) on services like The Roku Channel and Pluto TV, depending on licensing at the moment.
  • Live TV streaming (Philo, YouTube TV, etc.) – If you prefer cable-style viewing, live TV services such as Philo and YouTube TV carry channels (like Pop TV) that air Criminal Minds reruns; you can watch live or via cloud DVR.

Digital purchase and rentals

If you want permanent access or your local streaming options are limited, you can buy episodes or seasons:

  • Amazon Prime Video (Store) – Seasons and individual episodes are available to buy in HD in many markets.
  • Apple TV / iTunes – Also sells episodes and season bundles, sometimes including HD or 4K upgrades where supported.
  • Other digital stores – Platforms like Fandango at Home (formerly Vudu) and similar stores may offer per-episode or full-season purchases.

Tip: If a platform in your country used to host Criminal Minds but doesn’t anymore (for example, it left Netflix a while back), check Paramount+ first, then your region’s Disney+/Star or local pay-TV/streaming bundles.

Region and timing caveats

Licensing for Criminal Minds is fragmented, and guides often note that availability differs by region (for example, Binge/Stan in Australia, Paramount+/Disney+ in others). Because services shuffle catalogs regularly, it’s a good idea to:

  1. Search directly inside Paramount+, Hulu, Disney+, and your local major streamer.
  2. Check an up‑to‑date aggregator site (like JustWatch) for your country; it will show current streaming and purchase options.

TL;DR

Most people today will find Criminal Minds on Paramount+ as the core home, with Hulu , Disney+ (Star) , The Roku Channel/Pluto TV , and live TV streamers like Philo or YouTube TV offering additional ways to watch or catch reruns, plus digital stores such as Amazon and Apple TV for buying seasons.
