FBI season 7 release date
An official premiere date for the new season has not yet been announced. However, CBS has shared that the new episodes of FBI will once again air on Tuesday nights at 8 pm ET/PT, followed by new episodes of FBI: International season 4 and FBI: Most Wanted season 6. As more information becomes available about an exact release date, we’ll pass along the update.
For those without traditional cable/satellite television, CBS is available through a number of live TV streaming services, including FuboTV, Hulu with Live TV and YouTube TV. Paramount Plus Premium subscribers and subscribers to the CBS app also have the opportunity to watch episodes live as they air. Additionally, in the US, you can watch episodes on-demand via Paramount Plus the day after they air on TV.
In the UK, while we don’t have a release date for season 7, we anticipate new episodes will join previous episodes on Sky and Now at some point.
FBI season plot
The heart of the series is a crime procedural. Here is the official synopsis of the series:
“From Emmy Award winner Dick Wolf and the team behind the Law & Order brand, FBI is a fast-paced drama about the inner workings of the New York office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. This elite unit brings to bear all their talents, intellect and technical expertise on major cases in order to keep New York and the country safe.
“Born into a multigenerational law enforcement family, Special Agent Maggie Bell commits deeply to the people she works with as well as those she protects. Her partner is Special Agent Omar Adom ‘OA’ Zidan, a West Point graduate via Bushwick who spent two years undercover for the DEA before being cherry-picked by the FBI. Overseeing them is Special Agent in Charge Isobel Castille, who operates under intense pressure and has undeniable command authority.
“The team also includes Assistant Special Agent in Charge Jubal Valentine, the nerve center of the office whose ability to easily relate to and engage with both superiors and subordinates makes him a master motivator. The smart and outspoken Special Agent Tiffany Wallace, who spent six years with the NYPD, is partner to Special Agent Stuart Scola, an Ivy League-educated Wall Streeter-turned-FBI agent. These first-class agents tenaciously investigate cases of tremendous magnitude, including terrorism, organized crime and counterintelligence.”
