Did you know
- TriviaDick Wolf had been pitching a series focusing on the FBI to NBC for ages hoping to spin it off from Law & Order: Special Victims Unit (1999). However, NBC did not go through with the idea, so CBS quickly snapped up Wolf's idea and it became his first series not to air on NBC.
- GoofsA number of times in the series the agents assume someone is their suspect because they have the same caliber gun as the murder weapon, and its almost always a 9mm. Yet the 9mm is by far the most common handgun caliber in the world, so arresting someone based only on the fact that they own a 9mm is something that would not actually happen, it is the weakest kind of circumstantial evidence.

Featured review
Started out fine until
1. Became not-so-subtly ideological... bad guys turn out to be... right-wing extremist, or white supremacists, or climate-change "deniers", or wealthy conservatives, or... you get the point
2. Asst Special Agent Jubal becomes comedic. Does the FBI really have a "motivator" barking out directions and inspiring his agents as if this is the very first investigation?
3. Special Agent Maggie is appealing, intelligent, but just too emotional in every other episode 4. Every crime solved per episode. Wash, rinse, repeat. Wolf is more clever than this. He should have added more complexities and twists to extend the investigations beyond single episodes.
Entertaining for a little bit and then becomes too predictable and bland. It had the potential to be high-brow and it evaded that fine distinction.
