Re: FBI (CBS) -- From EP Dick Wolf

Whenever I see one of these FBI show threads bumped by DJariya during the off-season, I know there's another actor leaving before I even open it.

Scola getting a worse partner each episode should happen all season.

That would be a fun way to separate itself from other crime procedurals, but it takes itself too seriously. I'd be all for that idea.

Appears I am not too far off.

Within seconds they knew if a specific student id had been swiped on campus? The big brother police state in this universe knows no bounds.

Let's hope this partner sticks around.

I likely simply missed this in earlier discussion, or maybe I'm mis-remembering or in was explained in the show as I have missed some episodes, but didn't Nina leave the NY team to get out of the field and into a less dangerous job? Why did she go to the team on most wanted which is way more dangerous?

If it is the one that was supposed to be permanent, read the article above.

Edit: I can see why they are moving on. She is too young.

Re: FBI (CBS) -- From EP Dick Wolf

Considering the actress won't be sticking around, it was a below average episode. She was the focus but there's no reason for the audience to care. Strange that they didn't even pair her up with Skola though, considering they were supposed to end up partners.

Re: FBI (CBS) -- From EP Dick Wolf

I can see why the new actress isn't a good fit. Her character is only there because of her behavioral background. This show rarely needs that type of character to explain the motivations of the criminals. And it would get tiring if every week she had to chime in to explain why the suspect is doing what they're doing.

Emily Alabi cast as Scola's new partner. I think this one will stick. Seems like a far better fit based on her other work.

The body armor over tight puffy jackets is an interesting look.

The woman who played the Bolivian terrorist in last night's episode is in the new season of The Night Agent on Netflix, playing the Iranian woman, Noor.

A week behind. Oh shit Tom Cavanaugh as Isobel's husband? You don't hire a name that big unless there is a bigger plot point later.

Re: FBI (CBS) -- From EP Dick Wolf

I've been binging this show this past year, now finishing up Season 5.

One annoyance I have with the show is that in nearly every single episode, they track down the general area where the bad guy is located, they walk around the city streets and identify the suspect from a half block away, sometimes even carrying a weapon of mass destruction, and as they approach the suspect, they yell "Freeze! FBI!" from about some 100 feet away, and the suspect then takes off, and very often gets away ducking through the back of a building or alley.

^Yeah, that's kind of a trope in a lot of cop shows and movies. Lazy way to create suspense and action. I hope real cops aren't stupid enough to do that.

Damn that finale was legit.

No way the kill of Isobel after hiring Tom Cavanaugh to be her husband

Re: FBI (CBS) -- From EP Dick Wolf

FBI is back for season 8!

Good first episode.
Spoiler:
Isobel survives! Not really surprising, but welcome.
On the other hand, "Dani" who joined last season dies in this episode. Is Scola cursed?
