FBI

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.

Not a bad series, started well with a reasonably strong pilot but dipped a little with the nuclear reactor story, quite boring. Characters are a little wooden and need a little more body, like interesting back stories and personal lives. With that in mind, the potential is there for an interesting series, but Jeremy Sisto has to stop shouting all the time, it comes across as very amateur and it's extremely annoying.

The music is so loud you can't hear much of the script. Why do you need that elevator music.

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.

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!
