A police procedural drama series, The Rookie: Feds TV show was created by Alexi Hawley and Terence Paul Winter and is a spin-off of The Rookie from a backdoor pilot.
The story follows Simone Clark (Nash-Betts), the oldest rookie in the FBI Academy. Both empathetic and exasperating, Simone is a former guidance counselor as well as the mother of twins. As the story begins, Simone graduates from Quantico and heads to Los Angeles to start a new life.
Other characters include Simone’s father, Christopher “Cutty” Clark (Faison); Brendon Acres (Zegers), the former star of the Vampire Cop TV show who decided to become an FBI Agent; Special Agent Matthew Garza (Solis), a 20-year veteran; brilliant but socially awkward Laura Stensen (Robertson), a former member of the FBI behavioral analysis unit; and Carter Hope (Lesure), a former lawyer in the Department of Justice who is training Simone.
Episode #22 — Red One
After an internal investigation unit agent is drugged and buried alive in a desert outside of Vegas, the Feds director enlists Garza’s unit to discreetly investigate. Meanwhile, Simone’s plans for her 49th birthday bash are sidelined.
First aired: May 2, 2023.
What do you think? Do you like The Rookie: Feds TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Love the show Rookie Feds. The cast as well as the story line is entertaining.
Look forward to watching Rookie as well as Rookie Fed’s. Love Niecy Nash-Betts.
These comments make me laugh. “Totally unrealistic”, this show is meant for entertainment, it is not real! It is entertaining because it is over the top. You have a remote, you can use it to change the channel if you do not like what you are watching.
Not really, if the plot of this awful show affects another great show that you want to watch (The Rookie)
Absolute rubbish! Stupid dress code for someone in a high profile job. Irritating voice, ridiculous nails and false eyelashes and an irritating story line.
Just began watching this today and 100% agree with the above comment. Was going to keep watching to see if it would improve but they completely lost me just under 5 minutes in of ep3. Any guesses why? If they bring that in at ep3 it’s only going to be steep downhill from there. I suppose I should be grateful they did, because it’s extremely disappointing when they inject it after you’re invested in a show. Anyway that was the last of many nails in the coffin of one of the most unrealistic and irritating shows currently airing for me.… Read more »
This show is very dynamic, Niecy Nash didn’t win an Emmy for her past work, for nothing! The Supporting Cast is on the Money. Can’t believe what I’m reading below, this show has the FBI based in Los Angeles and it’s awesome!
What police officer in their right mind would show all that cleavage while working! Cannot stand watching her. Cover her up or lose viewers!
Hate this show. Not realistic, too much cleavage. She’s a big mouth and needs to put on some clothes
I enjoy The Rookie, and gave Feds a fair shot, but I’m over it. I understand “suspension of disbelief” but this goes way too far. It’s not believable from any angle, and if it’s supposed to be a comedy, is not funny. And the cleavage… I’m out.
This show is absolutely awful! The writing is atrocious, the lead actress is totally atrocious and the entire premise of the show is unbelievable! A 48 year old female guidance counselor being accepted to the FBI academy and then being such a top graduate, excelling in the driving course in the pit maneuver and the sheer attitude she exhibits would make any training officer throw her middle age butt out the door, PERIOD!!!!
This show should be cancelled. It is totally unrealistic. First and foremost, the FBI, as other federal agencies, does not recruit people over the age of 37, with exceptions to veterans. If you are going for comedy, it is too over the top. It The antics displayed would not be tolerated in a federal law enforcement agency. This show should not be on a major network, and should be a spinoff of RENO 911, with absolutely no connection/spin off from the Rookie; by doing so, it threatens the integrity of a well established, believable and successful television show.
Norma: I agree with you 1000 percent. It would be a bad RENO 911. It is a terrible show and the acting is terrible. This show should not be renewed. It is an embarrassment to good police shows and to actual law enforcement agencies.
No, the writing was flat
