How to Watch Criminal Minds: Evolution for Free
The only way to watch the series is by signing up for a Paramount Plus plan and enjoying the seven-day free trial. If you wait until the entire Season 2 has dropped on the streamer, you can try to squeeze all 10 episodes into your week-long trial to watch Criminal Minds: Evolution for free. Keep in mind, if you choose to capitalize on the 50% off deal, you will not be offered a free trial period. We recommend, however, foregoing the free trial since the aforementioned deal is the best way to watch Criminal Minds: Evolution online for less.
How to Sign Up for the Paramount Plus Free Trial
If you would rather try the Paramount Plus seven-day free trial, you’ll need to select a plan (outlined below) and sign up. Another important note: The 50% off annual deal is only valid for new customers. If you sign up for the Paramount Plus free trial, you won’t be able to capitalize on the deal after the free trial ends. Here are the step-by-step instructions for claiming your own seven-day Paramount Plus free trial to watch Criminal Minds: Evolution Season 2 for free:
Go to the Paramount Plus website
Click the “Try It Free” blue button
Select a monthly or annual plan
Enter user information including name, email and birth date

How to Watch Criminal Minds: Evolution Season 2: Paramount Plus Essential Plan
The streamer offers two different plans in both monthly and annual subscription options. All plans are eligible for the Paramount Plus free trial, but only the Paramount Plus With Showtime plan is currently 50% off.
You can opt for the Paramount Plus Essential plan to watch Criminal Minds: Evolution Season 2 with ads for $5.99/month or $59.99/year; this plan does not include Showtime or your local live CBS station, but NFL on CBS and UEFA Champions League are available via separate live feeds. Since the aforementioned 50% off deal brings the premium plan down to the same price as the Essential plan, we highly recommend capitalizing on the deal to get more bang for your buck.

How to Watch Criminal Minds: Evolution Season 2: Paramount Plus With Showtime Plan
Alternatively, you can watch ad-free by subscribing to the Paramount+ With Showtime plan for $11.99/month, or save on the annual subscription with the deal outlined above. The annual plan typically goes for $119.99, so this is a deal you won’t want to miss! The Paramount Plus With Showtime plan does include your local live CBS station. Though the plan is mostly ad-free, live TV streams will still have commercials, and a few shows include brief promotional interruptions to keep you in the loop on new and upcoming Paramount+ programming.

What Is Criminal Minds: Evolution Season 2 About?
In Evolution Season 1, the BAU’s elite profilers went up against Elias Voit, an UnSub who had spent the COVID pandemic cultivating a network of serial killers. Season 2 picks up as the team investigates the mystery of Gold Star. As that conspiracy unfolds, the BAU is met with an unexpected complication when Voit negotiates a deal that transfers him to federal custody, in the BAU’s own backyard.
Paget Brewster (as Emily Prentiss), Joe Mantegna (David Rossi), A.J. Cook (JJ Jareau), Kirsten Vangsness (Penelope Garcia), Aisha Tyler (Dr. Tara Lewis) and Adam Rodriguez (Luke Alvez) are all returning — as are both Zach Gilford (as Voit) and Ryan-James Hatanaka (as onetime person of interest Tyler Green). Additionally former S.H.I.E.L.D. director Clark Gregg is now heading up the FBI, and Desperate Housewives‘ Felicity Huffman will show up as Jason Gideon’s ex-wife.
