An agent of the Federal Bureau of Investigation or one of its fictional counterparts.
Line 55:
* In ''[[Castle]]'', Beckett has an ex in the FBI who she occasionally hits up for favors.
* Fitz from ''[[The Wire]]''. He's friendly with McNulty; as a rule, he genuinely wants to help the Baltimore police department with whatever problem they have that needs federal resources, but is constrained by the department's post-9/11 focus on counterterrorism.
* ''[[Leverage]]'' has FBI Special Agents Taggart and McSweeten as recurring characters. They believe that Parker and Hardison are also FBI agents specializing in secret undercover assignments and thus more than willing to help them out. In exchange they get all the credit for catching the bad guys at the end of an episode. They're portrayed as well-meaning but incompetent; it's a [[Running Gag]] that the scams in all their episodes have the side effect of giving them a gift-wrapped high-profile arrest (in one case literally -- Parkerliterally—Parker tapes a bow on the guy before locking him in McSweeten's trunk).
* ''[[The Inside]]'': The FBI allows [[Magnificent Bastard|Special Agent Virgil Webster]] to operate an elite team out of the Los Angeles field office, called the VCU.
* ''[[Numb3rs]]''
