Summary
Reviewers say 'FBI' is lauded for its engaging crime drama, talented ensemble cast, and realistic portrayal of law enforcement. The show's diversity and strong performances by Missy Peregrym and Zeeko Zaki are highlighted. However, criticisms include unrealistic plotlines, repetitive episode structures, and exaggerated character behaviors, especially Jubal's shouting. Some note inaccuracies in FBI procedures. Despite these flaws, many find the show entertaining and compelling due to its storylines and character dynamics.
Featured reviews
I really liked Missy Peregrym in her previous telvision crime/drama series (2010/2015) Rookie Blue, and there certainly is some decent on-screen chemistry with her current co-star Zeeko Zaki who recently appeared in the military/drama TV series (2017) Six. If this new TV series FBI is to not only survive but in fact thrive, the writers need to be a heck of a lot more creative with the storylines than just bring us one hour episodes about ISIS related criminals who simply just get shot dead by FBI agents in an effort to end the episode.
I have to ask myself where are the writers who created the fantastic and in-depth storylines of the hit crime series The Wire, and/or Major Crimes? Bring back these great TV crime series and please STOP generating shallow and boring shoot em up crime series that rely more on irritating suspenseful music scores in an attempt to keep our attention. It simply just won't work.
I give FBI an encouraging 5 out of 10 rating in an effort to influence the producers to hire some more creative writers, otherwise this series will die faster than their next ISIS storyline.

The music is so loud you can't hear much of the script. Why do you need that elevator music.
I was ready to write this show off after 2 episodes, but I glad I didn't. Someone must have heard all of the negative comments (mostly between me and my wife) around Sela Ward's and Jeremy Sisto's characters and how everything they did and said was WAY over the top. Starting in episode 3 they dialed their acting way back and the dialogue became more realistic and their actions more convincing.
I originally started watching this show because of Missy Peregrym (loved her in Reaper and Rookie Blue) and I really like the chemistry between agents Bell and Zidan, but after the firsts 2 episodes I didn't think it would last 1/2 a season. Now I really hope it has a long run.

Every. Single. Episode. Someone yells, FBI, we just want to ask some questions- and ooooffff goes the guy, here comes the standard hunt shuffle and catch. Every episode!
Then, I actually like the characters a lot, but why is Jeremy Sisto screaming like a lower school football coach every time there is a case? As if he doesnt have a team of really good people around him knowing what to do.
After 4 seasons, we are giving up on this show soon, really no season 5 needed, thank you very much!

Could Jeremy not shout everything he says?!?! Seriously it is getting to be annoying! Thank you

- TriviaDick Wolf had been pitching a series focusing on the FBI to NBC for ages hoping to spin it off from Law & Order: Special Victims Unit (1999). However, NBC did not go through with the idea, so CBS quickly snapped up Wolf's idea and it became his first series not to air on NBC.
- GoofsA number of times in the series the agents assume someone is their suspect because they have the same caliber gun as the murder weapon, and its almost always a 9mm. Yet the 9mm is by far the most common handgun caliber in the world, so arresting someone based only on the fact that they own a 9mm is something that would not actually happen, it is the weakest kind of circumstantial evidence.
