“Addictive” crime drama with “earth-shaking” investigation finds new UK streaming home

by

The first three seasons of “addictive” crime drama FBI have been added to a UK streamer.

As a devoted fan, I’d say the show delves deep into the heart of the main character, the titular law enforcement agency. The story unfolds around two key players – Margaret “Missy” Bell, brilliantly portrayed by Missy Peregrym, and Omar Adom “OA” Zidan, brought to life by Zeeko Zaki. It’s an engaging journey that keeps me hooked!

Since making its first appearance in 2018, the FBI series remains vigorous and is readying for its eighth season coming up this year. Fortunately, viewers can revisit some thrilling moments through Prime Video.

What to Read Next

In the UK and Ireland, the first three seasons (totaling 56 episodes) of this series can be streamed online. However, you can only purchase the following three seasons. Sadly, the seventh season, which wrapped up in May, is not accessible anywhere yet.

Although it hasn’t garnered much acclaim from film critics, the initial season still managed to secure a relatively fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes, sitting at 63%. This is slightly higher compared to the audience rating, which is presently at 56%.

The FBI conducts its initial investigations with surprising speed, often in a way that is vivid and dramatic. They add and remove suspects in a repetitive yet engaging manner, creating an impression of freshness rather than monotony.” (written by Uncle Barky)

In a similar vein, The Post NZ remarked that despite its familiarity, there’s an undeniable sense of comfort and addiction in observing these two agents solve mysteries, whether it’s the entire world or just New York city.

Vox equally lauded the production, remarking: “Once again, the series boasts a superb ensemble cast (placing Missy Peregrym at the heart of the FBI hints that Dick Wolf may have discovered his new Mariska Hargitay), masterfully timed and robustly built.

USA Today expressed some reservations, stating that the show should work on establishing a stronger individuality to avoid being just another police drama. However, they did commend the appealing partnership dynamics and complex storyline construction.

In addition to FBI, another high-octane series, Butterfly – a six-episode spy thriller, has recently been added to Prime Video. This series has seen great success since its release on the streaming platform earlier in the month.

FBI seasons 1-3 are available to stream on Prime Video.

The latest print edition from Digital Spy has arrived! You can grab a copy of “Oasis – Live in ’25” at your local newsstands or purchase it online, now available for only £8.99.
