Fans are eagerly awaiting to hear about the future of Criminal Minds after Season 11.

CBS hasn't announced the renewal of the series yet, and a recent Deadline report has listed the CBS procedural on its "shows in danger" list. The report reiterates that the show was not to be found on CBS' list of renewed shows, and its fate still hangs in the balance. Deadline adds that a few factors might play deterrent to the show's renewal: 1. It is very expensive for the network and 2. The premiere of its spinoff, Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders. Perhaps the network wanted to see how Beyond Borders fares before taking a call on Criminal Minds. Eventually the report is hopeful, revealing that it is more likely that the show will be renewed as CBS and ABC are "hammering out a new license deal for next season."

NCIS: Los Angeles, NCIS: New Orleans, Hawaii Five-O, Madame Secretary and Elementary figure amongst the renewed shows CBS had announced previously.

Another major hit Criminal Minds took recently was the exit of Shemar Moore, who plays Derek Morgan. Moore spoke to TVLine about his decision to quit and his experience of working on Criminal Minds.

"I'm proud of Joe Mantegna, Thomas Gibson, Matthew [Gray Gubler], Kirsten [Vangsness]... because not only did we bust our ass and defy the odds and create a hit show together, everything we did was together," he said.

He went on to explain how great it was to watch all his fellow cast member evolve and grow through his time spent on the show.

"Matthew started directing, and that inspired Joe. And that inspired Thomas. And then Kirsten got inspired [to write], and I supported her. And AJ [Cook] is a mother of two and took time out for her life and came back," he said. "It was nice to see everybody growing."

The next episode, entitled Devil's Backbone, will air on April 20.
