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.

Love this show, keep it on the air please.
Tomara quenão cancele The Rookie e volte a 3 temporada.
please renew the. rookie!!!!!@
So few good shows left. Please leave The Rookie on. It is not great but is better than a lot of the other shows on the air now. ABC is one station we hardly ever watch, so this may be the last season we watch it at all.
I enjoy watching the Rookie and certainly hope it returns.
I watch every week. Great show, great cast. Stories are well written and well produced. I’d hate to see it cancelled. Has to be one of if not the best “cop” show on TV.
Please remove his actions it is well written and well acted well directed it is always upbeat and we need this today in these difficult times
Yes I hope to see a season 3 would be super excited and want to know what will happen next with all the characters
I love this show !!! Please continue. This could be a two hour show every week. The long commercial breaks kill it sometimes.
This is one of the few shows that we watch. We love the suspense. We would be very sad if the series were canceled.
I would be sad if the rookie were to be canceled. There are very few shows in that keep your attention the entire hour!
Love The Rookie! Do NOT cancel!
This show is a MUST renew.
