What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the ABC television network, The Rookie TV show stars Nathan Fillion, Alyssa Diaz, Richard T. Jones, Titus Makin Jr., Melissa O’Neil, and Eric Winter. The series follows the experiences of John Nolan (Fillion), a middle-aged divorced man from Pennsylvania. He owns a construction company but decides to give up his old life to pursue a new career as a police officer in the Los Angeles Police Department. He graduates from the Police Academy and becomes the oldest rookie on the force. He works with Sergeant Wade Grey (Jones), training officers Angela Lopez (Diaz) and Tim Bradford (Winter), and fellow rookies Jackson West (Makin Jr.) and Lucy Chen (O’Neil). As season two begins, John is six months into his career as a cop and is put to the test by new challenges, romantic relationships, and potentially deadly situations.

Good ensemble cast, good story lines and not all the shooting. Hoping it will be renewed.
Please don’t cancel The Rookie!! We really like the show and would be super disappointed if it gets cancelled.
Please Renew “The Rookie”! It truly Is one of the Best TV Programs in today’s market. There is already far too much Trash TV. Like so much of the Reality crap! Please Keep a Show That is Worthy! The Rookie IS that show!!
One of the best shows i can remember (maybe next to “Castle”, which i still watch in reruns). Tells you something about fan-dom for Nate Fillion. He is a slick and well-liked actor, quite accomplished as compared with most other TV personalities. This is a well-done TV show–and very entertaining. Bring it back for another season. Psst: I prefer Saturday night.
Please don’t cancel The Rookie. I really like the show!!

Please don’t cancel the Rookie, it is an excellent show with great characters and it left last season with a two parter.
