Spoilers are forward for the winter premiere of FBI: Most Needed, referred to as “Shifting On,” which aired on January 28 and is now obtainable streaming with a Paramount+ subscription.
FBI: Most Needed was all about accountability within the first episode of the 2025 TV schedule, and never simply with the case of the week involving the deaths of individuals related to a bombing that occurred almost thirty years in the past. Nina discovered some distressing information from her sister, which solely bought worse on the finish of the episode as a consequence of a reveal from her estranged dad. So, after I had the prospect to ask showrunner David Hudgins about what the long run holds for Nina, he dropped some attention-grabbing teases about visitor stars… however Remy may very well be in for a world of harm beforehand.
First issues first! Nina’s sister Tink (Hannah Adrian) referred to as Nina early within the episode in want of recommendation, as she’d discovered that her husband was spending his days ingesting reasonably than looking for jobs, whereas Tink was working herself to the bone on the job and caring for the children. Nina needed to run when information got here of a postal employee who’d be murdered, however firmly advised Tink to speak to her husband about taking accountability.
That appeared all properly and good… till Nina bought a name on the finish of the episode from her dad Walker (John Finn) that Tink’s husband had “knocked her round fairly a bit,” and she or he needed to be hospitalized. Livid and already seeming in charge herself a bit for telling Tink to speak to Brett about accountability, Nina instantly declared that she was taking the subsequent flight to Houston.
The episode ended then and there, but it surely appeared that Nina is ready to transfer previous “digging her heels in” towards her dad if it means serving to her sister. So, will Hannah Adrian and John Finn seem once more in 2025, with “Shifting On” as their first episode since debuting again in October? I requested showrunner David Hudgins that very query, and he teased:
Nina’s household will completely be explored additional sooner or later. Particularly as she is attempting to determine her circle of relatives state of affairs with Scola and Dougie.
The showrunner did not explicitly say that the actors enjoying Nina’s sister and father will likely be again earlier than the tip of the sixth season, however exploring her household extra sooner or later sounds to me just like the door may very well be open for them. After all, FBI: Most Needed hasn’t been renewed for 2025-2026 but like FBI has, so it stays to be seen if “sooner or later” means exploring Nina’s story extra later in Season 6 or hopes for a Season 7.
And talking of FBI – Shantel VanSanten really appeared in that present’s winter premiere to assist Scola only a couple hours earlier than Nina’s massive episode of Most Needed, with actor John Boyd sharing what “would have been so unhealthy” if she wasn’t there. Hudgins weighed in on the most recent mini FBI/Most Needed crossover and promised that one other one is coming:
Mike Weiss [FBI Showrunner] and I are often in touch about Nina and Scola as we work out the season arcs for the yr. It has been nice attending to have that mini crossover ingredient and we’ll see extra of Scola this season.
John Boyd will visitor star as Scola once more in some unspecified time in the future in Season 6, so followers can sit up for that even when Hannah Adrian and John Finn aren’t 100% assured to return simply but. I do need to marvel if Most Needed goes to proceed Nina’s storyline off-screen within the subsequent episode, as CBS’ description suggests Remy will likely be within the highlight and Shantel VanSanten would not seem within the promo. Have a look:
Watch On
The subsequent episode, referred to as “Ars Moriendi,” was written by the showrunner, and it seems to be like David Hudgins penned an intense hour of tv for Remy particularly. In actual fact, the logline for the installment reveals that he’ll even have some stress in her private life. Per CBS:
After witnessing a homicide in broad daylight, the Fugitive Activity Drive should seek out a workforce of killers competing in a twisted on-line recreation. In the meantime, Remy and Abby battle to get on the identical web page.
The primary half of Season 6 ended with Remy and Abby’s relationship doubtlessly on the rocks, and apparently they did not resolve all of their points off-screen over winter hiatus. Followers must tune in to the subsequent episode on February 4 to see what the long run holds for the couple… if something.
New episodes of all three FBI reveals air on CBS Tuesday nights, beginning with FBI at 8 p.m. ET, adopted by FBI: Worldwide (which lastly resolved Vo’s destiny within the winter premiere) at 9 p.m. ET, and shutting out with Most Needed at 10 p.m. ET. You can even revisit earlier episodes of the present seasons streaming on Paramount+.
