Season 3 – The Rookie

2021 Crime Drama TRAILER for The Rookie: Season 3 First Look List
Reviews 37% Audience Score 250+ Ratings
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.

Christine Orlando TV Fanatic 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. Rated: 4.5/5 Jan 14, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews

Jens C This season was great there was some filler episodes, even as filler episodes they were still entertaining to watch and they're necessary to set up plot points to build you a better picture and understanding of the characters you're getting to know, the season ends on a high leaving you wondering what next Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/07/24 Full Review Александр Б Sorry but that is not a deep story of justice that’s is just a bad season with naive things inside. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/21/24 Full Review Audience Member fine but tried too hard in some regards and ended up being cringy rather than profound Rated 2 out of 5 stars 06/19/24 Full Review Audience Member No where near as good as seasons 1 & 2. Bit too much filler for my liking. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/16/24 Full Review American M I liked when Nolan got held back and both moved to t2 and how later he gets the gold ticket, this is a highly underrated season and Nyla Harper is such a good character, 10/10 would recommend Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/23/24 Full Review Audience Member I am suprissem how hated this Season is , I knew that this season is not as good like season1 and 2 are but I wouldn't say that it is such that bad I mean 34% is crazy , it had some boring moments but still had great Action and good characters , it didn't changed much in this season but that changed is that some of the rookies became p2s , one thing where I thought they could have done better is the episodes , we only got 13 episodes , in the other ones we got at least 20 and I saw in season 4 are even 22 , but there was a crazy cliffhanger at the end to be fair , so I would sax this season is by far not as good as the other ones but it is not bad , dome boring moments but still enjoyable. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/17/24 Full Review Read all reviews
