Starting over isn't easy, especially for small-town guy John Nolan, who, after a life-altering incident, is pursuing his dream of becoming an LAPD officer. As the force's oldest rookie, he's met with skepticism from some higher-ups who see him as just a walking midlife crisis. If he can't keep up with the young cops and the criminals, he'll be risking lives -- including his own -- but if he can use his life experience, determination and sense of humor to give him an edge, he may just become successful in this new chapter of his life.

There are plenty of police dramas that concentrate on detectives, and I love those shows, but following cops on the streets of LA is what makes The Rookie special. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Stephen C @SteC67 1d Another drama ruined by political agendas, being preached to is not enjoyable to watch, please stop this nonsense. First 2 series were good, but if this continues, season 3 will be my last. See more Eliseo J. @RT76674959 Feb 16 ROOKIE ElseoFornuo 2 See more Gianni A @Heres Jan 18 What happened to this show? First two seasons awesome... Now everything is about gender roles, gender study, police bad! Fight the system! Wt actual f is this! See more Nathalie H @HanaChiruSekai Dec 4 The writing in this season took a nosedive that only might've held up during the political climate that it aired in. It was about as subtle as a sledgehammer. Very forced and inconsistent with the show's established dynamics. Overall a hard watch. See more Robert M. @Mydlo1162 Jul 31 Great show! Perfect balance of drama and humor! See more Manulana T @RT40089495 Jul 19 I honestly love this season, seeing the Wopez couple together, and with a child, is really cool for me, and I'm sad about the death of the character Jackson, because I could develop the character more.
