Criminal Minds Season 9's upcoming episode this week is something that Haley and Hotchner fans should not miss, as it will be showing the loving couple once again. This time, it will be Hotchner's life on the line, as complications from his injury four years ago arise.

Fans will remember that four years ago, Hotchner lost Haley (Meredith Monroe) to The Reaper who had targeted Hotchner's family and killed his wife. The extended promo video shows that Hotchner may be revisiting his old flame in the dream world as he fights for his life.

Don't forget to check that episode out--and get ready for some tears as you see the couple reunited for possibly the last time.

Another big celebrity to appear this season?

David Anders delivered a fairly creepy performance as last episode's sadistic unsub, but he may not be the last celebrity name to grace the guest list of Criminal Minds Season 9.

ContactMusic.com has recently reported that Thomas Gibson, who plays Aaron Hotchner on the show, has invited Queen Latifah to become a guest for Criminal Minds Season 9 during his interview on her show.

"Come by if you feel like it. Whatever you wanna do, come do the show. Be a good girl or a bad girl, whatever you want," said Gibson as quoted by ContactMusic.com.

Here's a clip of Gibson in The Queen Latifah Show. Do you want to see Queen Latifah in the high-profile crime drama show? Would it be better if she's a bad or a good girl guest?

Blake fans, get ready for some spoilers

On the note of possible spoilers, E! Online has recently given away a tidbit piece of spoiler for those who are waiting for more origin story, this time for Alex Blake (played by Jeanne Tripplehorn).

According to the report, Blake's father and brother will be making an appearance for Criminal Minds Season 9. Apparently, Blake's father is a police captain who will be asking her to help out on a Kansas serial murder case.

In addition, fans may be seeing some sibling rivalry, as Blake/s return to her hometown may result in some annoyance on the side of her police detective brother, Scott.

This bit of news has been confirmed by writer Erica Messer in an interview with TV Guide. "It won't be a flashback, but you will understand after meeting her family why Blake became who she is in the FBI," said Messer.

This would be a good change of pace for Blake, as she has always been known as the replacement for Emily Prentiss and almost a match for Dr. Spencer Reid's (Matthew Gray Gubler) stock knowledge. Digging deeper into her story for Criminal Minds Season 9 might make her a more acceptable character in the BAU family.
