We don’t have to wonder if the FBI series will be cancelled right now since it’s already been renewed for a ninth season. CBS had been airing three series in the FBI franchise on Tuesday nights but the network has now cancelled the other two shows, FBI: Most Wanted and FBI: International. Will FBI flounder or flourish on a new night and without the other series? Stay tuned.
A police procedural series, the FBI TV show stars Missy Peregrym, Zeeko Zaki, Jeremy Sisto, Alana de la Garza, John Boyd, and Juliana Aidén Martinez. This series follows an elite team of experts who work at the New York City office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The first-class agents work to ensure the safety of all United States citizens and tenaciously investigate cases of tremendous magnitude, including terrorism, organized crime, and counterintelligence. The team members include committed Special Agent Maggie Bell (Peregrym); her partner, Special Agent Omar Adom ‘OA’ Zidan (Zaki); master motivator Assistant Special Agent in Charge Jubal Valentine (Sisto); Assistant Special Agent in Charge Isobel Castile (de la Garza); and Special Agent Stuart Scola (Boyd), a former Wall Streeter.

There can be other economic factors involved in a show’s fate, but typically the higher-rated series are renewed and the lower-rated ones are cancelled.
