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.

What do you think? Are you glad that The Rookie TV show has been renewed for a third season? How would you feel if ABC had cancelled this TV series, instead?
I really want to see more of the rookie. It’s really annoying when you get left on a cliff hanger the way it has, and if it got canceled I would be very upset about it. the only thing to watch nowadays is something silly that has a truckload of romantic drama and no actual plot line it sticks to
I really hope they dont cancel the rookie. It’s a great show. Nowadays everything good gets canceled and the real garbage stays. Let’s keep this one around for awhile.
I sure hope the Rookie will be back! It is one of my favorite shows. A lot better than some of the other crap that keeps coming back!! Actors work great together, & there is both drama & comedy in the show.C
The main show I looked forward to watching! I hope there will be a season 3!
Love the rookie show. Please renew this show. Nathan is the best actor and brings some entertainment to the show.
I would love to have a 3rd season, such a good show, every episode was exciting to watch
I am begging all the way from Holland
Please bring the Rookie back. Love that show.
Hoping that the powers to be at ABC renew The Rookie for a 3rd season,
The Rookie SHOULD return!
Love The Rookie! Please Renew and continue renewing!
We really lie Rookie and plead with you to renew it. I was wondering what would happen to Fillion after Castle and we like what you’ve done with him. We have several friends who like the show too, please keep it.
Yes, we hope to see Season 3 of the Rookie this year! We have been missing it!
Please renew. One of my favorites.
Love the Rookie…please renew!
Please renew The Rookie. I enjoy it & look forward to future episodes!
Please renew “The Rookie”; good show.
