Hey there, TV fans! If you're a die-hard supporter of the FBI franchise, you might want to grab a seat because CBS just dropped some big news. The network has decided not to renew two of its popular spinoffs: FBI: Most Wanted and FBI: International. This decision has sent shockwaves through the fan community, leaving many feeling disappointed and confused. Let's dive into the details and hear what the stars and fans have to say about it.
Goodbye, FBI Spinoffs: What Happened?
Both FBI: Most Wanted, starring the talented Dylan McDermott, and FBI: International, featuring the incredible Eva-Jane Willis, have been fan favorites for years. FBI: Most Wanted ran for an impressive six seasons, while FBI: International lasted for four seasons. Fans of these shows have grown to love the characters, the thrilling storylines, and the international flair that FBI: International brought to the table. However, CBS has decided to part ways with these beloved series.
Eva-Jane Willis Speaks Out
Eva-Jane Willis, who played a key role on FBI: International, took to the media to express her feelings about the cancellation. In a statement to People, she shared, "Of course I’m sad the show must come to an end, but I want to thank Wolf Entertainment and CBS for everything: in particular, the incredible tour of Europe we embarked on! We've created memories that will last us a lifetime!"

She continued, "Also, everyone needs to know how incredible our crew in Budapest is—they truly became our family away from home. I cannot thank you enough. And to the fans, you're absolutely amazing! There are some great episodes coming up, so stick with us all the way to the finish line. We're not done yet!" Her heartfelt words reflect the passion and dedication that went into bringing this show to life.
Fans React with Fury
As soon as the news broke, fans flooded the show’s Instagram page with comments expressing their frustration and disappointment. One commenter wrote, "I can’t believe it! CBS has canceled FBI: International and Most Wanted! Why?! These shows are incredible!"
Another fan chimed in, "Why are FBI International and FBI Most Wanted being canceled? These are two of my favorite shows. I hope NBC picks them up!" The sentiment was echoed by many others who expressed their love for the series and questioned the network's decision.
One particularly passionate fan wrote, "@cbstv @fbicbs @paramountplus Why would you cancel two of your FBI franchise shows? They're consistently at the top of the ratings, the acting is top-notch, and the stories are compelling. Clearly, you have fans. So why cancel these great, strong shows? I'm sad, disappointed, and confused!"
What's Next for the FBI Franchise?
While the cancellations of FBI: Most Wanted and FBI: International might leave fans heartbroken, it's not all doom and gloom. The original FBI series, starring the fabulous Missy Peregrym, will continue to air. According to a CBS press release, the original FBI series has been renewed through the 2026-2027 broadcast season.
Enter FBI: CIA
Adding a twist to the mix, CBS is introducing a new spinoff called FBI: CIA. The show will focus on a dedicated FBI agent and a street-smart CIA agent who form a clandestine task force to combat domestic terrorism in and around New York City. While the show hasn't been cast yet, fans are curious to see how it will stack up against the canceled spinoffs.

Many viewers are scratching their heads, wondering why CBS would greenlight a new spinoff while letting two successful ones go. One Instagram comment on the official FBI account reads, "All so you can try another one?????" Another fan echoed the sentiment, saying, "Canceling both spin-offs that are still performing well and are well-loved in favor of a spin-off that hasn't even aired yet is not the move you think it is @cbstv."
Will CBS Uncancel the Shows?
Some fans are holding out hope for an uncancellation, especially given CBS's history with the show S.W.A.T., which was canceled and then revived twice due to fan efforts and the heartfelt pleas of star Shemar Moore. One commenter wrote, "@cbstv @cbstvstudios @fbicbs You need to uncancel these! At least uncancel Most Wanted. This is a huge mistake. If you can uncancel SWAT twice, you can uncancel these." Time will tell if CBS decides to listen to the fans and bring these shows back to life.
For now, it remains unclear if another network will pick up the canceled spinoffs. Fans are eagerly waiting to see what the future holds for their favorite characters and storylines. One thing's for sure—this drama is far from over!
