FBI is an American police procedural television series created by Dick Wolf and Craig Turk that premiered on CBS on September 25, 2018.[1] The series is produced by Wolf Entertainment, CBS Studios, and Universal Television, with Dick Wolf, Arthur W. Forney, Peter Jankowski, and Turk serving as executive producers.

The series features an ensemble cast including Missy Peregrym, Zeeko Zaki, Jeremy Sisto, Ebonée Noel, Sela Ward, Alana de la Garza, John Boyd and Katherine Renee Turner. FBI received a straight-to-series commission for 13 episodes on September 20, 2017.[2] In May 2020, CBS renewed the series for a third season.[3] The third season premiered on November 17, 2020.[4][5] In March 2021, CBS renewed the series for a fourth season,[6] which premiered on September 21, 2021.[7] In May 2022, CBS renewed the series for a fifth and sixth season;[8] the fifth season premiered on September 20, 2022,[9] and the sixth season premiered on February 13, 2024.[10] The sixth season premiere was delayed from September 2023 due to the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes. For the same reason, there will be just 13 episodes in the sixth season.[11] In April 2024, the series was renewed through to season nine, ensuring its spot on air until 2027.[12] The seventh season premiered on October 15, 2024.[13]

Premise

[edit]

The series centers on the inner workings of the New York City field office criminal division of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), where the personnel work to ensure the safety of New York City and its citizens.

Born into a multi-generational law enforcement family, Special Agent Maggie Bell commits deeply to the people she works with as well as those she protects. Her partner is Special Agent Omar Adom "O. A." Zidan, a West Point graduate from Queens[14] who spent two years undercover for the DEA before being cherry-picked by the FBI. Other members of the office include Special Agent-in-Charge, Dana Mosier; Assistant Special Agent-in-Charge, Jubal Valentine; and Analyst, Kristen Chazal. Together, the team of agents investigate cases including terrorism, organized crime, and counterintelligence.[15]

In Season 2, Stuart Scola joins the team and is partnered with Kristen, who transitions into field work at the same time. Isobel Castille takes Mosier's place as team supervisor following the latter's retirement.

In Season 3, Kristen transfers to Dallas, Texas, and is replaced by Tiffany Wallace, a former New York Police Department officer and White Collar Division Special Agent. Tiffany later departs the bureau and moves to Georgia at the start of Season 7 after being burned out due a long-running case from the previous season.

Development

[edit]

The origins of the series go back to the Television Critics Association summer 2016 press tour, where Wolf revealed plans for a crime drama series, placed in New York and set in the world of the FBI. Wolf's original plan was to introduce it on the NBC network as a planned spin-off to his New York crime drama Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, where it was intended to introduce an FBI agent character, but NBC ultimately did not go through with it and the idea was later put on hold for different reasons. It's Wolf's first drama series to launch on a network other than NBC in 15 years. CBS officially picked up the series on September 20, 2017. The series is produced by CBS Television Studios and Universal Television.[37]

On January 25, 2019, during the TCA press tour, FBI was renewed for a second season,[38] which is set to premiere on September 24, 2019.[39] On May 7, 2019, following the renewal it was announced that Milena Govich joined as co-executive producer and director.[40]

On March 12, 2020, Universal Television suspended the production of the last three episodes of the second season following the COVID-19 pandemic.[41] However, on May 6, 2020, CBS announced that it was renewed for a third season which premiered on November 17, 2020.[3][4][5] On March 24, 2021, CBS announced that it had renewed the series for a fourth season,[6] which premiered on September 21, 2021.[7]
