The FBI was originally established to address crime that covered cities, counties, and spread across state lines. The country needed a federal law-enforcement entity to do those investigations. And over the years, as the country has grown and as the world, by the same token, has grown smaller, the FBI’s mission has changed to meet the various threats.

The show is hosted by James Kallstrom, the former director in charge of the FBI's New York office.

Along with The New Detectives, the FBI File is one of Discovery Channel's highest rated series.
