FBI: Most Wanted will premiere in January 2020

Looking forward to the new crime drama, FBI: Most Wanted? CBS released its midseason premiere dates, and the FBI spin-off was on the list for January.

After just one season, CBS opted to pick up a spin-off to FBI. The latest Dick Wolf series, FBI: Most Wanted, is coming in January 2020.

CBS revealed its midseason premiere dates and quickly made it clear that a lot of shows were on the move, according to TVLine. FBI: Most Wanted‘s arrival means that NCIS: New Orleans is changing nights for the first time since its arrival five-and-a-half seasons ago. The Dick Wolf series will take over the post-FBI slot, hoping to keep the same audience for its spin-off.

It makes sense, in a way. However, it’s going to be odd not seeing the NOLA team on a Tuesday night. The show is going to air on Sundays after NCIS: LA instead. The official date for FBI: Most Wanted to begin is Jan. 7, 2020.

The series will see a Fugitive Task Force take the lead on the cases. They’re tracking down the Most Wanted list set by the Bureau, which means some of the most notorious criminals. Expect plenty of mentions of real-life members on the Most Wanted list, but the show will create its own to make the storylines more fictionalized.

Jess LaCroix is the man leading the team, played by Charmed‘s Julian McMahon. He’ll oversee a team that is always mobile and forever undercover, hungry to take down those who have managed to elude justice for so long.

From Emmy Award winner Dick Wolf and the team behind FBI and the “Law & Order” franchise, FBI: MOST WANTED will premiere Tuesday, Jan. 7 (10:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT). FBI: MOST WANTED stars Julian McMahon in a high-stakes drama that focuses on the Fugitive Task Force, which relentlessly tracks and captures the notorious criminals on the Bureau’s Most Wanted list. Seasoned agent Jess LaCroix (McMahon) oversees the highly skilled team that functions as a mobile undercover unit that’s always out in the field, pursuing those who are most desperate to elude justice. Roxy Sternberg, Nathaniel Arcand, Keisha Castle-Hughes and Kellan Lutz also star. NCIS: NEW ORLEANS will move to Sundays (10:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) beginning Feb. 16, forming a strong two-hour NCIS block, with NCIS: LOS ANGELES at 9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT.

Kellan Lutz, Rozy Sternberg, Keisha Castle-Hughes, Nathaniel Arcand, and Alana De La Garza will also star in the series. Set as a midseason series, we can likely expect 13 episodes to the FBI-spin-off series or so.
