The hit FBI spinoff FBI: Most Wanted has already scored five seasons on the air thus far, and the procedural will return for season 6. Debuting in 2020 as the first off-shoot of Dick Wolf’s FBI, FBI: Most Wanted follows the Special Agents of the elite Fugitive Task Force who are assigned to capture the most notorious criminals on the Bureau’s most wanted list. Unlike other spinoffs that essentially repeat the original’s premise in a different location, Most Wanted stands apart from its predecessor with different types of exciting cases.
Based solely on the reputation of Dick Wolf’s many TV shows, CBS wasted no time in expanding Wolf’s latest project into a franchise. FBI: Most Wanted started as a backdoor pilot in FBI‘s first season, and less than a year later, it was given a full season order on the network. Since then, the franchise has been spun off into yet another series, FBI: International, while Most Wanted has firmly established itself as one of CBS’ premiere primetime series. With that in mind, FBI: Most Wanted season 6 is already on the way.

What Will Happen Next Season?
The conclusion of FBI: Most Wanted season 5 was exciting, but it didn’t leave any hints about what could happen in season 6. After stopping the dirty bomb plot that threatened NYC, the team arrived just in time for Ray to marry Cora in a surprise wedding, and the duo got a happy ending. Though that leaves few clues, each episode sees the team take on some major criminal in a case-of-the-week format.
