FBI: The Untold Stories is a police drama anthology series which was aired in the United States on ABC from 1991 to 1993.
Overview
Unlike ABC's The F.B.I., which was one of the network's major successes of the late 1960s and early 1970s, F.B.I.:The Untold Stories had no ongoing characters or storylines; each week's show was dramatized by different actors. Also unlike the earlier program, actual news and surveillance footage was incorporated into the program to add authenticity. One similarity with the predecessor program was that this one was also based on actual cases handled by the Federal Bureau of Investigation of the United States Department of Justice, and was made with the Bureau's full cooperation and involvement. Providing continuity from week to week was the ongoing narration of actor Pernell Roberts.
