Huge treat for Criminal Minds fans: EW has learned star Thomas Gibson will soon be stepping behind the camera for an episode in the show’s upcoming eighth season.
This will mark the first time Gibson has sat in the director’s chair on the CBS drama, but not his first time playing director. He previously helmed two episodes of Dharma & Greg, a show on which he starred opposite Jenna Elfman.
The episode, written by CM producer/scribe Rick Dunkle, will likely be a juicy one for Gibson’s character Hotch, too. Executive producer Erica Messer tells EW that Hotch’s brother (Eric Johnson), who was last season in season 1, is set to appear in the episode. “It’s about time we go there again,” she says.
Gibson joins co-star Matthew Gray Gubler on the list of CM cast members who have taken a shot at directing. Gubler has directed two episodes in the sixth and seventh season.

jenna is so unhinged i don't really see how anyone could get along with her
Also I'm sort of impressed they remembered that Hotch had a brother. That storyline was from season 1 and was literally never brought up again. We saw Haley's sister multiple times, but never saw his brother, even after everything that happened to him.
CM is one of the few shows that occasionally remember its own history. Last season it did pretty well with Morgan.
And funny that you mention Mosley Lane OP - I just rewatched that episode a couple of hours ago.
And I refuse to let him leave until him and Rossi get together and gay dad Jack.
