About Class of '09
Three moments, one tense battleground: Class of '09 tracks a group of FBI agents as a seismic shift in how crime fighting works takes hold. The story unfolds across three distinct points in time, revealing how artificial intelligence begins to reshape investigations, sentencing, and the rules that govern loyalty and career advancement. As algorithms determine leads, corroborate evidence, and even monitor behavior, the agents must recalibrate their skills and their ethics without losing touch with what drew them to the bureau in the first place. The ensemble is led by Kate Mara as Ashley Poet and Brian Tyree Henry as Tayo Michaels, with Sepideh Moafi, Brian J. Smith, and Jon Jon Briones rounding out a tense, provocative cast. Its tone blends noir mood with speculative tech drama.
Created by Tom Rob Smith, Class of '09 arrived in 2023. The series features a high profile cast led by Kate Mara and Brian Tyree Henry, supported by Sepideh Moafi, Brian J. Smith, and Jon Jon Briones.
There are no major awards listed for Class of '09 at this time. The show has earned attention for its ambitious premise and the strength of its ensemble, signaling potential future nominations if it sustains the pace and depth of its storytelling.
The concept is set to spark conversations about the use of artificial intelligence in law enforcement, civil liberties, and accountability. By weaving three timelines, the series invites viewers to consider how memory data and algorithmic decisions guide who is heard, who remains in the shadows, and how justice is defined.
Critics and early audiences note the show balances procedural tension with philosophical inquiry, delivering sharp dialogue and steady pace without losing focus on its characters. Core themes include the ethics of automation, power and responsibility, and the human cost of rapid technological change, all anchored by a working coalition of strong performers.
