FBI: Most Wanted
The first FBI spin-off, following the fugitive task force, in nine seconds of title card.
FBI: Most Wanted opens with a main title sequence of 9 seconds.
At 9 seconds, it opens well under the 47-second median for crime sequences in this catalogue.
It arrived on CBS in 2020, when Blue Bloods, NCIS: Los Angeles and The Late Show with Stephen Colbert were also on the network.
