Even though audiences probably wouldn’t yet be in the thick of anticipating Season 2 of Criminal Minds: Evolution, the ongoing WGA writers strike and SAG-AFTRA strike will likely delay the new episodes past whatever point they would premiere. So thank heavens for Joe Mantegna’s keen instincts, as he knew just how to send fans through the emotional gamut: with an adorbs picture from his IRL dinner date with former co-star Matthew Gray Gubler. Pretty sure both AJ Cook and her character JJ would give this duo a seal of approval.
I feel safe in assuming Mantegna had a more entertaining Tuesday night than I had, as he took to social media with photographic evidence of his good time grubbing with Gubler. (Which should probably be a YouTube channel at this point.) Check out the post below, with a caption that’s sweet enough to stir into a post-dinner coffee.
