Tuesday nights will soon be FBI nights again on CBS. Today, the network unveiled its full slate of premieres coming this fall, including the new season debuts for each other three police procedurals from the minds of production behemoth Dick Wolf and Craig Turk. Key among those is the flagship series that started it all, which continues to bring in viewers by the millions to watch the many happenings within the New York City field office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. It is set to lead things off in the 8 to 9 p.m. timeslot beginning on Tuesday, October 15.
Now entering Season 7, FBI is solidifying itself as another long-running hit within the Wolf universe, alongside the enduring Law & Order and One Chicago franchises at NBC. The series follows the hectic inner workings of the agents in New York City who bring their skills together to solve major cases that have implications not just for the community, but the entire country. They play a vital role in maintaining national security and thwarting threats to the public, all while developing a rapport with each other and the people they protect. In between cases, their personal lives are on display, showing the daily weight of such intense instances of terrorism and organized crime on the individuals behind the three letters.
Missy Peregrym leads the series as Special Agent Maggie Bell, a dedicated worker and team leader who carries on her law enforcement roots by serving the public alongside her West Point graduate partner, Special Agent Omar Adom “O. A.” Zidan (Zeeko Zaki). While there has been some shuffling of the cast between seasons, neither of the stars is going anywhere in the new run and their colleagues will remain mostly the same. Jeremy Sisto, Alana De La Garza, John Boyd, and Katherine Renee Kane are all back, though they may appear in fewer episodes in an attempt to cut costs going forward.
