FBI, FBI: International, and FBI: Most Wanted are some of the most beloved television shows airing currently. Created by Dick Wolf, the franchise centers on several aspects of how the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) operates. However, FBI will not be airing Season 7 Episode 9 on December 24, and International and Most Wanted will not be airing episodes either, leaving some fans worried about the future of the franchise.
So, here’s everything fans need to know about when FBI, FBI: International, and FBI: Most Wanted will return with new episodes.
Why FBI, International, and Most Wanted didn’t release new episodes on December 24
FBI, FBI: International, and FBI: Most Wanted have not aired new episodes on December 24 because the franchise is currently on a break.
All three series in the franchise dropped their mid-season finales on December 17, 2024, and have since gone on hiatus. Official reports have confirmed that they will return with new episodes on January 28, 2025, at their usual respective time slots. FBI will air at 8 p.m., FBI: Most Wanted at 9 p.m. and finally FBI: International at 10 p.m.
Like many other popular series, the FBI franchise has decided to go on a hiatus due to this year’s festive season. Viewership often drops significantly during the holidays, so the hiatus gives the cast and crew a break. Midseason finales also help create a sense of suspense and excitement for the new episodes that will arrive the following month. This period is also important as it helps creators decide whether a series can be renewed or not based on its viewership performance.
The original FBI series is currently on its seventh season, while Most Wanted and International are airing Season 6 and Season 4 respectively. Fans need not worry as all three series will return very soon with more exciting and dramatic moments.
