FBI: Criminal Pursuit is an American crime documentary television series that premiered on Investigation Discovery on March 17, 2011. The show follows the real-life experiences of FBI agents as they race against time to track down and capture some of the most dangerous criminals and fugitives in the United States. Produced by the UK's Blast! Films, each episode of the series features a different case and combines interviews with FBI agents, prosecutors, victims, and witnesses with dramatizations of key events.

The series is narrated by Bray Poor, who lends his voice to the show's eerie and suspenseful tone. Each episode starts with a narration by Poor, introducing the case and providing a glimpse into the FBI's investigative methods. He takes the viewer through the story, detailing the crimes committed, the victims affected, and how the FBI pieced together the evidence to capture the perpetrator.

The show is anchored by the presence of John S. Howell Sr., the former FBI Special Agent in Charge of the Atlanta Division. Howell provides his expertise on the cases, lending insight into the FBI's unique tactics and methods employed to tackle the most dangerous of criminals. He breaks down the investigations, revealing how the FBI tracks down fugitives from around the country and beyond.

In addition to Howell, the series also features interviews with various FBI agents and officers who were involved in the cases. Their stories provide an inside look at the FBI's strategic decision-making, innovative technologies used to solve cases, and tactics for tracking criminals across state lines. This behind-the-scenes perspective gives the viewer an idea of what it takes to catch criminals who have gone to great lengths to evade justice.

While the interviews offer a level of detail and insight into the cases, the dramatizations are what make the show so captivating. Each episode is beautifully shot and well-produced, with scenes designed to heighten the suspense and keep the viewer on the edge of their seat. From dark alleys to high-speed chases, the show delves into the criminal underworld, showcasing the brutal tactics employed by some of America's most dangerous offenders.

One of the standout features of the show is the way it examines the impact of crime on victims and their families. Through the interviews with survivors and family members of victims, the show goes beyond the details of the case to showcase the emotional toll these crimes can take on those involved. The viewer is given a chance to hear from those who were directly affected by the crimes, bringing a human element to the stories.

The show covers a wide range of crimes, from murder and kidnapping to bank robberies and terrorism. Each episode is unique, with a different crime and criminal at the center of the story. The series covers over two dozen cases, ranging from the Oklahoma City bombing to the search for the notorious Zodiac Killer. Some notable cases include the hunt for Whitey Bulger, the notorious mafia boss; the case of Elizabeth Smart, the Utah teenager abducted from her home; and the manhunt for Eric Rudolph, the Olympic Park bomber.

In conclusion, FBI: Criminal Pursuit is a thrilling and informative show that delves into the work of the FBI and the pursuit of justice. A combination of interviews, dramatizations, and expert analysis, the show offers a fascinating look into the world of crime-fighting and showcases the incredible work of the dedicated FBI agents who are committed to keeping America safe. With its compelling stories and strong production values, the show is a must-watch for anyone interested in true crime or law enforcement.
