What Happened
The highly anticipated CIA TV show is set to premiere on February 23 at 10:00 p.m. ET on Global TV, with streaming available on StackTV in Canada. Starring Tom Ellis as CIA Agent Colin Glass and Nick Gehlfuss as FBI Special Agent Bill Goodman, the series follows an elite FBI/CIA fusion cell investigating international plots and terrorist cells. The show aims to carve out its own identity while maintaining some connections to the established FBI franchise.
Why It Matters
This new procedural drama expands the FBI universe created by Dick Wolf, which has been successful for over eight seasons. The dynamic between the rule-following Goodman and the rogue Glass is expected to provide a fresh narrative angle, appealing to both long-time fans of the FBI series and newcomers. Critics have noted that while the show may not be groundbreaking, it has the potential to attract a diverse audience.
What’s Next
As the series unfolds, viewers can expect a mix of standalone stories and occasional crossovers with the FBI franchise. The premiere episode will set the stage for future investigations, and the show’s creators are optimistic about its ability to evolve and engage audiences. Fans of the original FBI series are encouraged to tune in to see how this new addition integrates into the existing narrative.
