FBI: International

CSI did this before. A bunch of arrogant Americans making fools of themselves in places where they shouldn't be.

My name is Ronald, borne and raised in the Netherlands.

I was watching Season 4, episode 2 today and got annoyed, as I could barely understand the "Dutch " people. The people supposed to be Dutch were in fact English language people trying to speak Dutch and it was absolutely horrible...

My advice is to use actors from the country you are portraying... In this case, most children in the Netherlands learn to read and write English in primary school, so it wouldn't have been that difficult to find adequate actors and especially the adults, they all speak English...

Also, the striping on both ambulance and police car, are nowhere near the real striping and the uniforms are what they used perhaps 20 years ago. Please do research especially when doing shows like this an do better...

What a crap series.

The whole premise does not hold water as the FBI have no jurisdiction abroad. They also carry guns in countries where it would not be allowed etc.

It is also ridiculously patronising in that it tries to show all other police forces as being inept and that they are the only ones that can solve a crime.

The best actor... the rest of the team is weak, ugly and lacking in charisma.

American writers and directors should not attempt any form of series set abroad without significant help from the natives ! Once again this show makes Americans appear very arrogant and ignorant about anything outside of America !

It makes out that all European / International Police forces are full of incompetant and corrupt idiots and that only the FBI can do the job correctly ! I highly doubt that the FBI are allowed to storm in and take over an investigation in a foreign country like they do in this show !

The premise is just backward and wont work.

The characters in the show are bland and their acting is wooden. They have nothing that makes you want to pay attention to them. This show just fails.
