With the Law & Order and Chicago franchises, executive producer Dick Wolf has a very impressive track record of making long-running TV shows for NBC. Now, he and Craig Turk have made another one — the FBI TV series — for CBS, a network that already has quite a few procedural dramas. Will it be a ratings success and be renewed for a second season or, will it be cancelled instead? Stay tuned. *Status update below.
Airing on CBS, the FBI TV show stars Missy Peregrym, Zeeko Zaki, Ebonée Noel, Jeremy Sisto, and Sela Ward. The program revolves around the inner workings of the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s New York office and a group of first-class agents. The team brings all of their talents and technical expertise to solve major cases of tremendous magnitude — including terrorism, organized crime and counterintelligence.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly on the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — usually the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.

Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.
What do you think? Do you like the FBI TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season on CBS?
1/25/19 update: CBS has renewed the FBI TV show for a second season.
This show deserves season 2. The relationships are solid. Zeeko and Missy are a perfect FBI pair.
The cutting edge surveillance systems are fascinating.

I can not believe that she said “I remember a time when someone didn’t like something, they wouldn’t firebomb it.” Guess she forgot about the firebombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church on September 15, 1953 where four African American girls (Addie Mae Collins, Cynthia Wesley, Carole Robertson and Carol Denise Mc Nair) were murdered.
Those who forget history are bound to repeat it! (George Santayana).
just binge the show and its SUCKSSSS , 10 episodes, fist everyone asks for a lawyer change their mind in 30 seconds ( no one gets a lawyer ever ) , everyone acting sucks, i did binge watch it because there is nothing else to watch but this is bad TV
This show is so close to being really good. The stories themselves are captivating. My only issues with the show are Zeeko Zaki, Jeremy Sisto and Sela Ward. Zeeko seems way too overdramatic and just a mediocre actor at best. Sela Ward is a great actress, but seems out of place in this show. Her role and Jeremy Sisto’s seem redundant. There’s something about Jeremy Sisto’s lines or delivery that seem off but I can’t place my finger on it. If it were up to me, I’d replace Zeeko, and get rid of Sela or Jeremy. I’d be inclined to… Read more »
Please keep FBI on the air it is a very good show
This is an awesome show every time a show comes on that I am excited about it gets canceled what’s up with that
This is a really great show – one of the best I’ve seen in a long while! two strong actors in the forefront great plots deserving of a second season and well beyond. But because it’s a great show it will get axed. in favor of lesser ones.
How come missy never smiles? She always looks like she wants to cry. Maybe once in a while she can turn that frown into a smile!
Really enjoy the new show FBI by Dick Wolf. Each week the story is different, cleverly written and the cast works so well and are believably. The characters are well developed and complex and we feel what they are feeling. Very intense and interesting. PLEASE RENEW THIS SHOW!
Easily the most Entertaining Best Written, Produced, Realistic Drama Ive seen in awhile. The Cast is Top Notch and unlike all the other TV Shows out there where “Oh its gonna be this Guy cause Ive seen him in certain Shows” they keep u guessing. Need more FBI!
I dont watch any of the CHI Shows, L&O SUV for the last 3 Yrs & Criminal Minds got predictable. BUT unlike so many other Shows FBI has both a Great Cast (My Mom & Aunt luv Zeeko Zaki) Great Writing, Production, Realism & for once u dont know whose the Real Bad guy or how the Episode will Swing till the end. SEASON 2! Please!
Please please do another season this series is amazing and will Maggie and OA ever have a romantic relationship because I totally ship it they are perfect for each other❤️❤️
Please please do another season this is so amazing if you do another season will Maggie and OA have a romantic relationship say yes please ❤️
Very nice series and I want to watch a second season with the actors
I am really enjoying the show, I hope it stays on the air.
This is a Great Show. It keeps you on the edge of your seat with all the excitement of whats going on. I hope it Gets Renewed. I hate when all the good shows you just get started on get cancelled!
