Kirsten Vangsness and Matthew Gray Gubler have an adorable Criminal Minds reunion for his book. Playing original BAU teammates, Penelope Garcia and Spencer Reid, the pair worked together for 15 years in the CBS police procedural. Unfortunately, Gubler did not join Vangsness and the majority of the main cast for Criminal Minds: Evolution season 1, so it’s always a treat whenever he is spotted with his old co-stars.
On her Twitter, Vangsness supports the release of Gubler’s new book by sharing snippets from their recent reunion. Check out the adorable images below:

Will Matthew Gray Gubler’s Reid Finally Come Back In Criminal Minds: Evolution Season 2
Much has been said about Gubler’s possible return in Criminal Minds: Evolution season 2. It’s still unclear where Reid is while the BAU hunted down Sicarius and his network of serial killers, however, it has been made clear that he remains a member of Emily Prentiss’ team, he’s just busy with other matters. This makes it fairly easy to bring him back if Gubler finally decides to partake in the Paramount+ project.
In recent months, however, Gubler has been publicly spotted with a couple of his old Criminal Minds co-stars. Before his meet-up with Vangsness, he and Dave Rossi actor, Joe Mantegna also crossed paths and even had dinner. There was no mention of having any discussions about Reid’s comeback in Criminal Minds: Evolution season 2. However, it’s difficult to believe that the matter didn’t even come up, especially with Mantegna being fully aware of the clamor for Gubler’s character to return.
Whether Reid will be in Criminal Minds: Evolution season 2 is still uncertain. However, between still being firmly a part of the BAU and Gubler’s great relationship with his old cast mates, it won’t be difficult to bring him back into the Paramount+ show. In any case, there’s no rush for the actor to decide on the matter since the dual WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes have delayed season 2 indefinitely.
