FBI season 5 is set to premiere Tuesday, Sept. 20, 2022, where it will once again lead into new episodes of FBI: International and FBI: Most Wanted! While there has been some speculation that the season could kick off with the yet-to-be-aired season 4 finale, CBS has confirmed the episode will not serve as its season premiere.
FBI season 5 will begin with an explosive premiere as the team works to track down a massive bomb that has landed in the wrong hands and could lead to a mass-casualty event if detonated. As the team works to secure the bomb, one agent will struggle to keep a promise made to their son that becomes jeopardized by the case.
