Is the FBI franchise branching out? CBS boss Kelly Kahl recent spoke with Deadline about the possibility of another Dick Wolf TV show spin-off.
FBI, which was just renewed for a third season, follows an elite team of experts who work at the New York City office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Meanwhile, the spin-off series FBI: Most Wanted premiered in January 2020 and focuses on the work of the Fugitive Task Force, a team that tracks and captures the notorious criminals on the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Most Wanted list.
When asked if there is another FBI spin-off on the horizon, CBS president Kelly Kahl said Dick Wolf is always coming to them with ideas:
We are always talking to Dick [Wolf] and Dick is always bouncing ideas off of us and I can’t rule anything out.
During this year’s winter TCA press conference, Dick Wolf did say there is endless potential for the franchise:
There is the FBI and basically all other law enforcement.These are true‑blue people, and we should be honoring them in a variety of ways.”
What do you think? Are you fan of FBI and FBI: Most Wanted? Would you watch another spin-off?
Yes, I would watch another FBI spinoff.
I love both FBI shows, please do not cancel.
We love the two FBIs & would definitely watch a third one. There are so many moronic TV shows, FBI stands out. Also love MAGNUM. Thanks
Always remember the lesson of CSI, & it’s 3 spin-offs. They are all gone & several didn’t lat more than a season. More is not always more. Most Wanted is ok but doesn’t compare to FBI. Spend time improving that show before adding another.
Yes, I’d love to see another spinoff. Keep up the good work!
Love both FBI AND FBI most wanted!!
The character’s are what make these both shows amazing.
How soon they forget- CBS had a successful FBI based show that was a hit for 12 years – then they changed time slots and ratings dropped the last 3 seasons (Which technically were actually TWO) … a little show called CRIMINAL MINDS! (Which like FBI/FBI:Most Wanted was a co-production with a rival network!)
They killed CRIMINAL MINDS…
Be careful about having too many spin offs from one show because it will likely water things down and ultimately harm all the branches.
I liked FBI and anything that dick wolf does. Love sVU, Chicago Fire, Med and PD as well
Absolutely!! FBI is a great show with an awesome cast!! Another FBI spin off would be very welcomed. Please do not even think of cancelling FBI!!
I don’t dislike the FBI franchise but if I had to choose I would certainly select the NCIS, OneChicago, Law&Order or Lenkoverse franchise prior to it. I’m not sure it needs another spin off right at the moment.
I’ll watch anything from Dick Wolf
Yes, would love more Dick Wolf FBI spin offs – he is the best!
How wonderful it is to have both FBI shows renewed. With the genius of Dick Wolf, by all means, we should have more spin offs of the FBI.
YES these 2 shows are GREAT. Good storylines, actors/actresses all have good chemistry together on the show. You can NOT go wrong with Dick Wolf shows/storylines as his shows are ALWAYS Fantastic.
