FBI: Most Wanted is an American crime drama television series created by René Balcer and produced by Wolf Entertainment that was ordered to series by CBS in May 2019.[1] It is the first spin-off from Dick Wolf's drama FBI, in whose first season the characters of the series were introduced. The series premiered on January 7, 2020.
In May 2020, the series was renewed for a second season which premiered on November 17, 2020.[2][3] In March 2021, CBS renewed the series for a third season,[4] which premiered on September 21, 2021.[5]
Premise[]
The series centers on the work of the FBI's Fugitive Task Force, a small and unique team designed to track and capture notorious fugitives on the Bureau's Most Wanted List. Supervisory Special Agent Jess LaCroix is the head of the task force as well as a criminal profiler and expert tracker. The team originally consists of Special Agent Sheryl Barnes, an ex-NYPD detective with a degree in behavioral psychology and is the second in command, Special Agent Kenny Crosby, a Army veteran and a computer whiz, Special Agent Hana Gibson, the intelligence analyst for the team who is a master at data mining and social engineering, and Special Agent Clinton Skye, a highly trained sniper with a law degree and is one of the most experienced agents on LaCroix's team, as well as his brother-in-law.
In season 2, Skye is put on special assignment to the Bureau of Indian Affairs, and is eventually replaced by Special Agent Ivan Ortiz, a former LAPD gang officer with street cop instincts. At the start of season 3, Crosby is put on medical leave after being wounded by a former Army comrade during an investigation, and is replaced by Special Agent Kristin Gaines, a rising star from the FBI's Miami office.
This show is more about profiling and analyzing fugitives in order to catch them unlike FBI and FBI: International which are more about the crime and the investigation.
