* HoistByHisOwnPetard: A corrupt CEO is targeted by a man who blames him for dumping toxic coal ash in the water supply of the town, giving hundreds of people, including his own daughter, cancer. He kidnaps the CEO's daughter to threaten her with the same ash but the CEO still refuses to admit what he did. After the FBI rescues them, the daughter realizes her father was guilty and gave her the land as a way to avoid it possibly being investigated. When the FBI threatens to start digging up the land, the CEO smirks his lawyers will tie it up for years...only for his daughter to remind him that the land is legally hers and gives the feds full permission to dig up all the evidence that puts her father in jail.

** Season 2 has Sheryll worried about her daughter when she gets involved in the Z-ALL case with the team [[spoiler:which turns out to be part of a plan for a woman to go after her alledged rapist as he used his upper class connections to have a lawsuit against him dropped]].
* FunnyBackgroundEvent: In "Predators", as Hana explains the crime scene to the rest of the team, Agent Crosby is seen eating a sandwich.

* DarkerAndEdgier: A subtler variant compared to ''Series/{{FBI}}''. While the original tends to be more straightforward about who the bad guys and good guys are, ''Most Wanted'' has plenty of GreyAndGreyMorality; often establishing plenty of suspects as a great deal more sympathetic here. When the suspects aren't sympathetic, they are {{Complete Monster}}s and they ''know'' it, unafraid of shoving it to the team's faces. This is entirely {{justified}}: while the original focuses on the investigative aspect, this one focuses on the pursuit - which usually features suspects that are quite a bit more dangerous than the suspects in ''FBI''.
