Criminal Minds lead actor considers the series his “biggest public mistake. “
Criminal Minds revolves around a seven-man special FBI unit that profiles perpetrators of serial killers, looking into their most gruesome acts. Patinkin played Jason Gideon, the squad’s chief, from 2005 to 2007. Years later, he revealed how much he regrets the role. Speaking to New York Magazine in 2011, he said:
“Criminal Minds was my biggest public mistake. I didn’t expect to see all those women raped and killed there, day in and day out, week after week and year after year. It destroyed my soul and personality. The effect [of the series] worries me. For many viewers, these are bedtime stories. But you shouldn’t dream about something like that. “
