FBI: Most Wanted

When this series began with Julian McMahon as lead it was incredible. Then he left the show and Dylan McDermitt took over. Completely different styles. Dylan's character "Remy" plays an arrogant, rude, hot-headed, over actor who thinks hes all that. He helps himself to other people's food, people he doesn't even know, without asking. What's that all about. Julian's character was quiet, smooth, and empathetic and truly sincere. Dylan's character is completely opposite and frankly, annoying to watch. He is anything but empathetic. Problem with this is I can't decide whether it's incredibly poor acting on Dylan's part or the writers want him to act this way. Either way I'm not sure how much longer I can watch this series unless Dylan leaves the show. All other characters, although they change often for some reason are OK. Dylan character is just too much everything.

If you like Dick Wolf shows, this one is good. The best part of the show is the acting chops of Terry O'Quinn and Julian McMahon, and their complicated relationship. Supporting cast is quite good. It works for me .

Addendum 5/24/24 l must say that the replacement of Julian McMahon with Dylan McDermott has been rough. Remy, Dylan's character is just not a likable guy. He appears angry and unapproachable with his staff. Dylan is a good actor but I just don't like his character. I still enjoy the show but McDermott needs to vanish.

Dylan McDermott = bad choice.

Stole that title & first line from another review.

It's the exact wording I intended to use & (no surprise to me) here's this review & a lot of others agreeing.

I hated to see Julian McMahon leave, but actors are human & have their own priorities & career choices. That's surely understandable. How a show handles these changes will vary. Sometimes I like the choice & may even feel it's an improvement.

Not this time. Dylan McDermott is the worst replacement character I can recall.

I'm out.

I also feel bad choose on replacing Julian McMahon with Dylan McDermott and then Dylan personalty really sucks on the show. Jillian McMahon personality was a much better character then Dylan McDermott So no way Julian McMahon can return cause you killed him off. Then as said by another person review the Dylan played Bad guy on Law and Order Organize Crime. Then you replace him as a good guy on FBI Most Wanted you need to write his character off the FBI Most Wanted with his character as it is on the show write him off as him crossing the line and replace him with another actor such as Elias Koteas, Jon Seda, Alex O'Loughlin, Beulah Koale or Ian Anthony Dale someone other than Dylan McDermott.

I finally gave up on this show, after probably persevering for too long.

While it's not a bad police drama, the constant turnover of the main characters made it very disjointed. The back stories for them were pointless, as nobody stayed and characters often disappeared with no explanation. Whatever happened to all of Jess LaCroix's (Julian McMahon) in laws?

I gave the new supervisor, Dylan McDermott, a go. But when one of his early 'unsubs' turned out to be a woman with multiple personalities, I drew the line. The writers were really scraping the bottom of the barrel for ideas. Like there are not enough regular, garden variety psycho killers that they can call on.

Pity. The show had potential. But the revolving door and an outrageous story line was too much.
