‘FBI,’ ‘FBI: International’ & ‘FBI: Most Wanted’ All Get Double Season Renewals At CBS!
CBS are not letting go of the ‘FBI’ franchise any time soon as they hand not one, but two season renewals to ‘FBI‘, ‘FBI: Most Wanted‘ and ‘FBI: International‘ (and before anyone asks, no we don’t have UK air dates for any of them yet!)
‘FBI’ is a fast-paced drama about the inner workings of the New York office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. This elite unit brings to bear all their talents, intellect and technical expertise on major cases in order to keep New York and the country safe. Missy Peregrym, Zeeko Zaki, Jeremy Sisto, Alana De La Garza, John Boyd and Katherine Renee Turner star.
In the US, the series is Tuesday’s #1 program on CBS, averaging 10.35 million viewers, the #2 broadcast series and a time period winner in viewers. On Paramount+, FBI is among the top five most-watched current CBS series on the service year-to-date. This season, FBI has amassed 9.7 billion potential social media impressions. The renewal gives ‘FBI’ Seasons 5 and 6.
‘FBI: Most Wanted’ is a high-stakes drama that focuses on the Fugitive Task Force, an elite unit that relentlessly pursues and captures the notorious criminals on the Bureau’s Most Wanted list. The series stars Dylan McDermott (replacing the outgoing Julian McMahon), Alexa Davalos, Roxy Sternberg, Keisha Castle-Hughes and Miguel Gomez.
The drama is a time period winner in viewers, averaging 8.85 million, beating the competition combined at 10:00 PM, and is a top 10 broadcast series. This season, ‘FBI: Most Wanted’ has amassed 5.9 billion potential social media impressions. The renewal gives ‘FBI: Most Wanted’ Seasons 4 and 5.
‘FBI: International’ is the third iteration of the successful FBI brand that follows the elite operatives of the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s International Fly Team. Headquartered in Budapest, they travel the world with the mission of tracking and neutralizing threats against American citizens wherever they may be, putting their lives on the line to protect the U.S. and its people. Luke Kleintank, Heida Reed, Carter Redwood, Vinessa Vidotto and Christiane Paul star.
The series is the #2 highest-rated new drama series this season, averaging 8.31 million viewers, and is a time period winner in viewers. The drama has amassed 4.7 billion potential social media impressions season-to-date. This renewal gives ‘FBI: International’ Seasons 2 and 3.
All three shows come from Emmy Award winner Dick Wolf and the team behind the ‘Law & Order’ and ‘Chicago’ franchises. They are produced by Wolf Entertainment and Universal Television, a division of Universal Studio Group, in association with CBS Studios.
‘FBI‘ and ‘FBI: Most Wanted‘ both air on Sky Witness in the UK (which you could probably rename “Sky Wolf” at this point!) As they seem to want to spread out the “Dick Wolf-ness” over the year, we’re expecting them to return in July 2022. ‘FBI: International‘ has not yet been picked up in the UK, but we’ll let you know if we hear something. If you want to keep track of these or any other tv show, you can add them via our Never Miss system, and you’ll be notified when they get a UK premiere date.
