The FBI franchise, also known as The FBIs, is an American media franchise composed of four fictional television series on CBS. It began with the premiere of FBI in 2018 and has since been expanded with spin-offs FBI: Most Wanted, FBI: International, and CIA. All four series are produced by Wolf Entertainment.
Multiple characters have appeared in more than one series of the franchise through occasional crossover appearances and the franchise has also had crossover events. The franchise is also connected to Wolf Entertainment's Chicago franchise and the Law & Order franchise, through an appearance by Tracy Spiridakos in FBI, as her character from Chicago P.D.
Four television series make up the FBI franchise: FBI, Most Wanted, International, and CIA. All series in total amount to 347 episodes across 19 seasons of television.
The first series in the FBI franchise focuses on the inner workings of the New York office criminal division of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). 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.
Most Wanted centers on the work of the Federal Bureau of Investigation's (FBI) Fugitive Task Force (FTF), a small and unique team designed to track and capture notorious fugitives on the Bureau's Most Wanted List. The series is more about profiling and analyzing fugitives in order to catch them unlike FBI and FBI: International which are more about the crime and the investigation.
International follows the elite operatives in the Federal Bureau of Investigation's (FBI) International Fly Team (IFT) which is headquartered in Budapest. They are charged with locating and neutralizing threats against American interests in Europe.
Spin-off focusing on a partnership between an FBI agent and a CIA agent who work together on a clandestine taskforce to prevent domestic terrorism in New York.
The FBI Declassified gives viewers unprecedented access to some of the biggest cases handled by real-life FBI agents and analysts. The episodes were narrated by Alana de la Garza who appears in the fictional shows as Isobel Castille.
Follows the world of real FBI agents using surveillance video, interrogations with hostage takers and terrorists, and photos from the agents' collections to tell their real life stories. While this show has no connection to the franchise, it's seen as a successor to The FBI Declassified.
