“Exit Wounds” – Garcia plays a crucial role in a case when she travels to Alaska with the BAU team to investigate the murders of several members of a small town, on CRIMINAL MINDS, Wednesday, May 12 (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.

From the official press release:

“Very Bad Koalas” follows the journey of two sheltered and innocent koalas on the run from the law. They escape in their 1958 Cadillac Eldorado into the “out there” and experience people and places that will test their wills, their morals, their sanity and their nocturnal nature.

The koalas, Avery and Irving, are as far from criminals as they could possibly be. Wrongly accused, they break out of prison together and form an unlikely co-dependent friendship. Their bizarre adventures will take them to exotic and scary places along the highway in the “out there.” Unintentionally misguided by a hipster shaman gorilla, our heroes will encounter Amazon women elephants, Fleshies (furry animals who wear human costumes), a religious cult of highway-flattened animals, vampire turtles and a large variety of bizarre characters, each more twisted than the last. They will evade detectives, bounty hunters and their newfound fame as criminal media celebrities. They will unknowingly buy the Devil’s used “GPS system,” which will take them to different layers of hell. They’ll unintentionally start a rampage of criminal copycats in the name of Avery and Irving. They will wonder if prison is better than what destiny has planned for them.

From the Blank’s Web site:

Christopher Durang turns political humor upside down with this raucous and provocative satire about America’s growing homeland “insecurity.” A young woman is suddenly in crisis: Is her new husband, whom she married when drunk, a terrorist? Or just crazy? Or both? Is her father’s hobby of butterfly collecting really a cover for his involvement in a shadow government? Why does her mother enjoy going to the theatre so much? Does she seek mental escape, or is she insane? Honing in on our private terrors both at home and abroad, Durang oddly relieves our fears in this black comedy for an era of yellow, orange and red alerts.

Tickets are available now!
