FBI - Green Birds television review

The second episode of FBI is stronger than the first as FBI Agents Maggie Bell (Missy Peregrym) and OA (Zeeko Zaki) hunt for teenage girls who have been turned by ISIS into perpetrating chemical attacks in New York, first at a restaurant salad bar and later at a market. The death of the first poisoner (Rebecca Gruss) leads Bell and her partner to another local girl turned by the group and explores how ISIS targets those who they can turn into loyal soldiers and martyrs. The episode gives us more of Kristen Chazal (Ebonee Noel) working the dark web angle and helping to identify the girls, and the introduction of Sela Ward, recasting one of the Pilot’s weaker characters.

FBI - Pilot television review

Although it also relies on a large supporting cast, FBI is a little more centrally focused than Dick Wolf‘s previous creation Law & Order which split time with police and lawyers every week. Here the focus stays primarily on FBI Agent Maggie Bell (Missy Peregrym) and her partner (Zeeko Zaki) who are the first on scene for two bombings in New York City and later a third, all organized by the same mastermind. Maggie takes it personally when the mother of one of the bombing victims blames Maggie for saving her life and not letting her go after her son (who almost certainly died in the first blast – seriously, it exploded exactly where the kid was standing) before the building was dropped by a follow-up explosion killing more civilians, firefighters, police, and aid workers.
