Does John Nolan make the grade during the first season of The Rookie TV show on ABC? As we all know, the Nielsen ratings typically play a big role in determining whether the TV show The Rookie is cancelled or renewed for season two. Unfortunately, most of us do not live in Nielsen households. Because many viewers feel frustration when their viewing habits and opinions aren’t considered, we’d like to offer you the chance to rate all of The Rookie season one episodes below.
An ABC comedy-drama, The Rookie stars Nathan Fillion, Alyssa Diaz, Richard T. Jones, Titus Makin, Mercedes Mason, Melissa O’Neil, Afton Williamson, and Eric Winter. The story centers on John Nolan (Fillion), a small-town guy who, after a life-changing experience, decides to pursue his dream of being an LAPD officer. Now he’s the oldest rookie on the force, and the brass thinks he’s just having a midlife crisis. He’s got to keep up with his younger co-workers (not to mention young criminals) or he’ll risk lives. Maybe though, he can use the experience he’s gained with age, and the determination he has developed over the years, to make a real go of it. Either way, he’s got a secret weapon — his sense of humor.
What do you think? Which season one episodes of The Rookie TV series do you rate as wonderful, terrible, or somewhere between? Should ABC cancel or renew The Rookie for a second season? Don’t forget to vote, and share your thoughts, below.
I love Nathan Fillion in Firefly, Castle and now The Rookie. The interaction between his character and the others is awesome. I record and watch later because it does come on so late. It would probably get better ratings if it were on earlier, but time will tell. I hope they continue to the 2nd season and beyond. 1 season is not enough to tell if the public really likes it.
I love Nathan and the Rookie is the ONLY show I watch on regular television! I absolutely look forward to many seasons!!! The cast is absolutely awesome! Wow whoever picked this group….. Excellent job! I look forward to seeing growth from each character…so many ways it can go! This show is not predictable at all! Which is what I want as a viewer! Keep surprising us! Nathan you are fantastic and my family and I will STAY TUNED! Wonderful Holiday Season to you and yours!!
The Rookie is quite a strange character driven TV series! Not exactly a hard hitting police drama but more of soap opera type show. Each main character has some sort of problem either with other officers and/or other persons that they are involved with. It is very hard to not change the channel or not stop watching the show. There are no clear cut black and white police work because everything is complicated by feelings and how they feel! The sargeant does not like the 40 year old rookie and is mean to him because he the same age as… Read more »
Yes, I love the show and Fillion. Please renew. Thank you
I love it very entertaining
I like it. My 10-year old son enjoys watching series with me and there are not many on air that have action without gore, adult language or intimate adult situations; I have no problem with PDAs – they are a part of real life – but it is refreshing to have characters having an adult relationship without making out heavily on screen. I hope enough of us viewers tune in to keep it going.
Yaaaaaaas so right I watch with my son too! He’s grown but as a mom I still don’t want to see those things with my children. Completely agree. That is one of the reasons I love this show as well!
My wife and I were skeptical when we say the previews of The Rookie and we weren’t sure what to expect. From what we have seen in the first two episodes, it has promise. I like it when a little Richard Castle comes out of the Officer Nolan character. I’m looking forward to watching more episodes in the future.
