Tom Ellis stars in CIA as Colin Glass, an unpredictable rule-averse CIA agent who teams up with a by-the-book FBI agent (Nick Gehlfuss) whose name is literally Bill Goodman. Glass needs the FBI to operate in New York, so Goodman is sent by FBI's Jubal Valentine (guest star Jeremy Sisto) to assist Glass with a counter-terrorism operation. It's a classic set-up for conflict and hijinks, and in fact, it's so classic that the show doesn't yet feel particularly new. It's a bit like CBS' grittier version of a USA show from the 2010s, which could turn out to be a compliment, because who didn't love the era of Psych, Burn Notice, White Collar, and Suits?

How does the FBI handle the rule-fudging of the CIA?
While we get a taste of friendship between the two agents, Bill is mostly totally thrown by how Colin operates. He's got assets who would normally be arrested for terrorism, and when they get injured, he takes them to a surgeon in the back of a pawn shop. The CIA takes surprise meetings in cars and saunas and makes decisions based on gut, so does Bill just have to approve their wild plans, or at least know about them in advance? Exactly how does this cooperation work, and how much do we even want to know about it before it gets unnecessarily boring?

Will they or won't they or are they not even thinking about it?
I cannot lie and say I never thought that Colin and Bill should think about kissing, which could just be because FBI fans are starved for romance. (See: the Scolina engagement and wedding, which took four seasons to happen, and only actually includes one regular FBI character.) It could also be because both Ellis and Gehlfuss are naturally charming on screen and have good chemistry with most other charming actors. And it could also be that Bill and Colin belong together forever, because opposites attract and sometimes enemies turn into lovers. It's hard to say just yet, but just in general, the FBI universe needs more kissing, and more emotional tension to go with its crimefighting. Ellis and Gehlfuss are both quite adept at longing, and it would be a waste to not let them do it.
