Cannot get used to Dylan McDermott being in FBI Most Wanted after how evil he was in Law and Order. Even if he is doing a “great job as expected” as reported something just doesn’t feel right. What was wrong with Jess?
- Brains McGhee
Did you not read about how Julian wanted off the show? Did you expect the network to force him to continue?
- Rita Archuleta
Are there any details on Jess LaCroix’s departure from FBI Most Wanted? After watching Dylan McDermott on SVU Organized Crime and the crooked character he played, he just doesn’t seem credible and it’s like waiting for the other shoe to drop!

Yeah FBI International has hit it’s stride too but it appears Christinale Paul is leaving. She was excellent in her role.

Great! I really enjoy FBI & FBI Most Wanted. I’m kinda indifferent about the International one, but maybe I’ll learn to like it.

International catching it’s stride in the latter half of the season. Actors are definitely gelling better now. I imagine season 2 will see vast improvements. I’ll definitely be watching
