As The Rookie Season 6 nears its conclusion, viewers are eagerly awaiting the finale to uncover what’s next for Lucy and Tim, also known as ‘Chenford’ among fans. The ABC cop drama, which began in 2018, follows the journey of Nathan Fillion’s John Nolan, the oldest rookie at the LAPD. Despite numerous challenges, he has proven his capability through six seasons. The popular series faced disruptions due to the 2023 WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes but made a triumphant return earlier this year with a noteworthy 29% improvement in premiere ratings over the previous season. Fans have endured another brief hiatus,...

The term "procedural" refers to series that follow the "one episode – one plot" format. This formula is often criticized for its simplicity and incompatibility with deep character development, but it is still very popular because of its convenience for the average viewer – you can start watching the project from any episode and not miss anything.
The Rookie was a pleasant exception – despite its format, it allowed for character development, and cross-cutting plots could drag on for many episodes while intertwining with the investigation in each episode.
The Rookie Episodes Are Less And Less Connected to Each Other
However, red flags about the show's oversimplification, which fans are increasingly complaining about, began to appear in the very first seasons.

You might be thinking – what could be the connection between shows as different as The Rookie and The Walking Dead? One is a light-hearted police procedural and the other is a post-apocalyptic zombie show. However, they are actually connected by one thing – the questionable decisions of the writers.
There may be viewers out there who watched The Walking Dead and didn't like Glenn, but we don't know them. He's just a good guy who got better every season. So his completely unexpected and gruesome death came as a real shock.
But do fans remember how the creators seemed to be trying to maintain the ratings with Glenn's help? Shortly before his actual death, fans thought Glenn was dead when he fell right into the hands of the walkers, but after some time he miraculously escaped. Only to die again a few episodes later. Yes, this was definitely done for ratings.

The Rookie is a warm and light-hearted series about forty-year-old John Nolan, who decided to make a drastic change in his life, graduated from the police academy and started his career as a cop in Los Angeles from scratch.
The problems of an adult, together with the hardships of the youngest link in the chain of a large team, passed through the main character is a great way to show that it is never too late to quit everything today and start something else tomorrow.
Procedural Series Often Reduce All Male-Female Relationships to Romantic Ones
TV shows like The Rookie almost always have a huge amount of romance – and the audience doesn't mind, after all, when has a love drama not been exciting? However, sometimes the writers of long-running series bring everyone together one after the other, which starts to get repetitive and boring.

Actor Nathan Fillion had just completed his run as Castle when he was cast in The Rookie. But he admitted he sometimes found it hard to leave his Castle character behind when doing the hit ABC series.
Nathan Fillion’s ‘Castle’ habits died hard Nathan Fillion | Nicole Wilder/Getty Images
It might’ve taken a while for Fillion to truly shake off Richard Castle for The Rookie. In the ABC series, Fillion found himself in somewhat familiar territory. Like Castle, The Rookie saw Fillion’s character, John Nolan, solving crimes. So it might’ve been easy to channel Rick Castle from time to time, even after the show’s end.
But personality-wise, Castle and Nolan couldn’t have been any more different. Rick Castle was a mystery writer who tagged along with police officers, many times unwelcomed, for his own amusement at first. The character also didn’t always take...

For all its flaws, The Rookie remains an excellent procedural that continues to delight viewers with its balanced mix of police drama, action, and comedy. Based on the true story of an LAPD officer who joined the law enforcement in his mid-40s, the show centers on the department's oldest rookie, John Nolan (Nathan Fillion), who finally gets the chance to become a training officer himself in Season 5. Despite the fact that the ABC series receives mediocre scores from critics, it is very popular among audiences, earning The Rookie not only a spin-off, Feds (unfortunately canceled due to WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes), but also a renewal for a new seventh season.
But for now, we still have three episodes of Season 6 to go, and the plot continues to develop rapidly, providing viewers with intriguing storylines that promise to shock fans closer to the finale. As such, we saw a...

The first step in fixing a problem is acknowledging that there is one and getting help.
Tim Bradford is on the path to doing that after everything that has happened to him, and Blair is the person he's willing to turn to to get the ball rolling by the end of The Rookie Season 6 Episode 7.
But is that the best choice? It's one of many things worth discussing during this installment.
Overall, it was a genuinely pleasant hour! And that sounds a bit sardonic, but that's not the case.

Actor Nathan Fillion has been leading the TV show The Rookie for soon to be seven seasons, now. But with Fillion playing officer John Nolan for so many years, the character hasn’t been a rookie for quite some time.
Fillion recently explained how the show lived up to its premise despite his character’s growing experience.

In the beginning, the show’s title The Rookie told audiences almost everything they needed to know about the series. Fillion played a middle-aged man who makes a sudden and severe career change when he decides to become a police officer. At 47 years-old, Fillion’s John Nolan became the oldest rookie in the LAPD at the time. Which was one of the main reasons why the Castle star was so attracted to the show.

Chenford fans, how are you all doing?
If The Rookie Season 6 Episode 6 wasn't anything else, it was utterly brutal for those viewers who love the fan-favorite 'ship as we watched a multi-season-long slow-burn relationship that appeared rock solid get pulled from beneath our feet in the blink of an eye.
The hour also presented us with another notorious Rookie villain who may unsurprisingly pop up again and have Bailey and Nolan reach an underwhelming decision about parenthood.
We also saw that rookies Celina and Thorsen still have much to learn.
On the topic of Celina, will we ever delve deeper into an actual storyline that addresses the series of errors she makes and the consequences of her actions hitting her full force?
It's hard to know if Celina's more recent and ongoing pattern of fumbling something up reflects her and something deeper that we've yet to explore or speaks to...

Did anyone have Nolan and Bailey considering parenthood on their Bingo Cards?
We just got past the Bailan wedding, and now, thanks to sweet baby Anna on The Rookie Season 6 Episode 5, the pair may have to consider their stances on parenthood and what type of future they have together in that regard.
The hour also introduced us to a multi-episode arc involving Tim Bradford's past, which threatens to challenge him and Lucy and his position on the force.
There was so much great content within the hour, and there's only a promise for more.
The hour also did a decent job of juggling many characters with storylines.
Offhand, since my colleague was musing about how Elijah Stone is a great villain, the Oscar Hutchinson deposition has been mildly interesting.
The biggest issue with this deposition that came out of nowhere and seemingly led to nothing is the belief that there's far more to it.

What a way to bring it home in the final ten minutes of the hour.
Mostly, The Rookie Season 6 Episode 4 was a relatively underwhelming hour, hovering on uneventful and laissez-faire.
But then, they packed all the action and excitement into those final ten minutes where Lucy Chen became a complete and utter badass.
While those final scenes didn't ultimately make up for everything else, they livened things up and introduced some potentially interesting angles and moments of development for Lucy.
The hour also saw Aaron Thorsen returning to active duty after leave and the dynamic duo he and Bradford are together.
There were many odd tones in this installment.
One of the most notable was the team getting sucked into this case that they thought involved a serial killer that we had never even heard about before this.
You had a crappy day. You had them before, you'll have them again.

Nolan can never have a regular anything.

While there was some fun in this installment with the honeymoon antics, and we got that blow for Lucy Chen with the results of her long-awaited detective's exam, it was an understated hour.
And only a little forward movement happened with the plot.
One of the standouts from John Nolan and Bailey's honeymoon was the fantastic camera work utilized to depict the various surveillance Nolan brought for the trip.

Actor Nathan Fillion has become a reliable leading man when it comes to shows like The Rookie. He was already attached to the hit series Castle, and continued his success with the police procedural. The Rookie creator himself once explained why he felt Fillion might’ve stood out from other leading men in the entertainment industry.

Hawley already had Fillion in mind before he even had his first script for The Rookie. The producer only had a premise for the show, which he thought Fillion might’ve had trouble putting faith in. The actor also just finished up doing another long-running series in Castle. At the time, Fillion might not have been ready to do yet another network series full time.

Actor Nathan Fillion has played The Rookie‘s John Nolan almost as long as he’s played mystery writer Richard Castle. Although he held both roles in high regard, there was a reason why he’d hang out with John Nolan over the latter.
Nathan Fillion explained the differences between John Nolan and Richard Castle Nathan Fillion | Richard Cartwright/Getty Images
Fillion’s John Nolan and Richard Castle already had one thing in common, as the two characters both dedicated themselves to solving crimes. But that was where the similarities mostly ended. In Castle, Fillion played a mystery crime writer who helps police officers investigate grisly murders. Meanwhile, The Rookie found Fillion playing a middle-aged police officer who developed a sudden passion for making a difference. The Rookie was also based on a true story, whereas Castle was entirely fictional.

The Rookie has graduated from primetime newbie to veteran TV show as it reaches its 100th episode, a milestone star and executive producer Nathan Fillion says tells you, “Whatever you’re doing, you’re doing something right.” Since debuting in 2018, the ABC police procedural has sustained faithful viewership amid both internal and industrywide obstacles, including the pandemic and most recently, the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes.
Fillion, who portrays John Nolan, the oldest rookie in the LAPD, credits the drama’s longevity to creator and showrunner Alexi Hawley, with whom he also worked on ABC’s Castle from 2009-16. “I think what keeps people coming back is the time they spend with these characters,” says Fillion, who teases the possibility of new romantic plotlines during season six. “Anytime you throw two different characters in a squad car together, you know you’re going to get different dynamics, and people are tuning in to that.
