He had a great run with the show, was one of my favourites.One common sentiment felt by most fans was that the legendary character deserved a better farewell, perhaps a happier one. Many also hoped that the writers would leave an option for the character to return. But the FBI: Most Wanted's creators took an entirely different path, ending Jess's story on a sad note.Aaron J.@TheRealAJ_@MostWantedCBS Terrible ending. We were hoping you were leaving the door for Jess to come back. Now that he is dead we will never see him again. I was hoping he would pull through. Why kill him off? Julian McMahon's character is one of my favorites. I'm upset. ☹️ #JulianMcMahon #FBIMostWanted10:35 AM · Mar 9, 20226@MostWantedCBS Terrible ending.

Why kill him off? I hoped he and Sarah would sail into the sunset. Jess could have retired. That would have been a better ending. This is disappointing.

Having worked with the creators before, McDermott will likely not have a hard time adjusting to the show. The actor has previously worked on NBC's Law and Order: Organized Crime.Not much has been revealed about his character yet, but it has been confirmed that he will be joining the show on April 12, 2022.Looking back at McMahon's character, the creators only had good things to say. Speaking to Deadline, Executive Producer David Hudgins said:&quot;He’s not the same Jess we meet in the first season...His arc last year was about basically putting himself out there and opening himself up to meeting somebody. And how could he do that with all of the emotional baggage and damage he has from the death of his wife—but I think he got there last year. And I think this year, it’s been about him deepening his relationship with Sarah and realizing that he’s not empty nested because he has her. I love that part.&quot;McDermott will have big shoes to fill, but fans will be hoping the show does not lose its footing with this change.
