Thankfully, the fact that Upton is a series regular on NBC’s Chicago P.D. meant that FBI fans had no reason to fear that the show was bringing her in to permanently replace Maggie.
And I say that as somebody who loves the Maggie/O.A. dynamic on FBI and the Upstead situation over on P.D.!
She filled Maggie’s slot while there was a vacancy, and her temporary partnership with O.A. 100% worked for me.
The FBI: Most Wanted crew on the scene the penultimate episode and then Chicago P.D.’s Tracy Spiridakos as Hailey Upton changing the game in what turned out to be the finale mixed things up in a good way.
