The FBI shows won’t air new episodes on March 5, return date scheduled
Well, FBI franchise fans, we’ll be without new episodes of our shows this week on CBS. As you’ll note from the CBS TV schedule, the network is shifting around its regular programming to make room for coverage of Super Tuesday and President Biden’s State of the Union address. This has led to some of the network’s shows to be preempted and for reruns to be aired.
On Tuesday, March 5, we can anticipate the flagship and FBI: International to air reruns then at 10 p.m. ET, CBS News will take over to bring you the latest information as votes are counted in 16 U.S. states and territories holding primary elections. Below, you’ll find details on what episodes will rerun and when the FBI shows will return with new episodes.
FBI
At 8 p.m., FBI season 6’s premiere will re-air. “All the Rage” caught us up with the team as Scola’s been adjusting to fatherhood particularly with Nina joining the Fugitive Task Force over on FBI: Most Wanted. The season opener also established a season long arc involving the death of a beloved agent whose loss will continue to impact Tiffany and the rest of the team as we progress through the season.
Episode 4, “Creating a Monster,” will premiere Tuesday, May 12 at 8 p.m. It’ll be an exciting one for fans of Rookie Blue as Charlotte Sullivan has been cast in the role of Jessica Blake. TVLine reports Sullivan’s character is friends with Maggie who has a close relationship with Jessica’s daughter as well. The time they spend together will have the agent thinking about motherhood for herself.
We can expect the episode to loop back to OA’s tricky situation with his new love interest, Gemma, whose friend lost her life while assisting on a case. Episode 3, “Stay in Your Lane,” ended without her knowing the circumstances surrounding her friend’s death. It looks like she may be brought up to speed in episode 4.
The case of the week centers on a federal judge who was executed in broad daylight. The suspect is described as having ties to an Islamic center in the area.
FBI: International
Unlike, the flagship, International won’t be re-airing its premiere. Instead, season 2, episode 9, “Wheelman,” will rerun at 9 p.m. The episode follows a major art heist with the culprit being an American citizen. It’s up to the Fly Team to put a stop to the crime which sends them on a race through Budapest’s streets. Meanwhile, Forrester’s anger mounts with Dandrige peering into every move the team makes during their mission.
Fans can anticipate a new episode to air on Tuesday, March 12 at 9 p.m. Episode 4, “Cowboy Behavior,” takes place in Bulgaria. The team has been called there to track down a criminal who has been exploiting underage girls from America. During the case, Raines will become curious due to Forrester’s request that he keep an eye on Powell.
FBI: Most Wanted
As noted previously, FBI: Most Wanted is the only series in the franchise that won’t rerun on Tuesday, March 5 as CBS News will be covering Super Tuesday. If you’re behind any of the shows now is the time to catch up on Paramount+. Like its sister series, the procedural will make its return on Tuesday, March 12. You can count on a new episode airing at 10 p.m.
Season 5’s fourth episode, “Hollow,” follows a harrowing case as the Fugitive Task Force are called upstate to assist with hunting down a serial killer whose victims are Indigenous women.
