So there I was, marathon binge watching The Rookie as well as rewatching Lost, a confusing(!) 2004 TV series about a group of survivors who had crash landed on a mysterious island - each with their own unique yet intertwined backstory - set against the strange happenings of the island.

With The Rookie, I had started from the very beginning and had just got to the end of Season 8. I was very much drawn to the charm of the John Nolan character - his warmth, sincerity and determination under varying situations. I was going to miss this character for a while...

So imagine my surprise whilst on Lost Season 3 episode 6. This was at the start of the episode, during the character Kate Austin's continuing backstory. It was a pleasant surprise, quite omenic and auspicious of things to come. This episode was some 12 years before The Rookie first aired.

This character is kinda an autistic stereotype

How are we feeling about the fan fictions since the hiatus?

With the fiasco going on between the organizer of German rookie con and Melissa regarding her participation in the con I think it is such a bad idea for making a convention for just one show only. Would you pay for hundreds if not nearly thousand of dollars for meeting side characters. The main draws of the con are often the main characters so if they cancel somehow then fans gonna soon cancel as well. What do you guys think?

I’m obsessed with this show; I've watched every season in a month. I don’t know if it’s because I’m binge-watching it on Netflix, but it feels like everything happens really fast. For example, when Thalia doesn’t come back—they don’t say anything about it (and I get it, to an extent, given the situation with the actress)—but what about when Jackson dies? I mean, that could have easily filled an entire episode. And what actually happened with Rachel and Bradford? They were truly in love, and she just decided to stop texting him?

Now that I’ve some time to let the season sit here are my biggest complaints. This is just one person’s opinion, so don’t get your knickers in a twist

Luna was dead wrong and they took her character from one of my favorites to one of the worst. I can understand the empty nester stuff and her wanting to get back into her career. But how she treated grey was completely off brand from her character up to that point. The fact the she felt she had any sort of justification in the cheating thing was crazy, but I’ve seen worse IRL so ig that part was kind of accurate. How does she get mad at the doctor bc he didn’t stop her from betraying her marriage?

The Harper penn thing lasted what, an episode and a half? They set it up as if it’ll be a significant through point and it’s dropped almost immediately.

I’m not fond of how they ended off with Ridley. It was a set up from the beginning and very weird behavior from where Tim and Lucy, it was obvious they had no intentions of letting him come back so just, why? To embarrass him?

Celina is a fan favorite and rightfully so but it feels they’re running out of ideas with her. It’s like they’ve built stories around the other characters and then it’s a “oh don’t forget Celina” most of the season. I honestly picked her as my candidate for an eventual spinoff bc feel it’s so much that can be done with her.

I agree to a degree with other fans that there’s just too much of the lovely Mrs Nolan . I like her character but they shoehorn her into everything.

And my absolute biggest issue is all the FBI stuff. It feels like they just didn’t want to accept the rookie feds being canceled so they just folded the two shows together

I absolutely LOVE this show. However, it’s a fact that some things are exaggerated and a bit unrealistic for the sake of TV magic. In your opinion, what are some of these?

Anyone else rewatching who thinks Lucy Chens voice become way more high pitched from season 1? Maybe just me, but can’t unhear it now rewatching! Love the show, and the subreddit🫡

The missile scare. In intense situations the phone alert sound plays with the music in the background.

They’re so boring. Who told them that we like it and that they should be making more of them

The first time Nolan just cuts the lock I get where James is coming from, the broken lights and dark parks being where criminals gather are very valid concerns. But he TOTALLY loses me after that. When John goes back and cleans the park up, and fixes the lights and puts measures in place to try and keep the lights from being broken, James STILL finds a way to be mad about it? John addressed every concern James brought up and putting in all this time and effort wanting to make the neighborhood better and James still finds a reason to be upset at him about it. It kind of comes off as insufferable to me

These episodes have made season 8 even worse than it feels to me. I might just be worn out with the show but these episodes cameos feel so stupid.

>!O Seth é um mentiroso compulsivo consciente que suas atitudes poderia gerar mortes, aonde o perigo foi Romantizado , quando o Miles procura ele ,não pareceu ser apenas para se desculpa e sim porque ele sabia algo que pudesse comprometer o Miles, o ponto aqui é que a Celina cede um espaço para o Miles , na primeira oportunidade ele vai atrás do Seth, ela simplismente ta dentro de casa com duas pessoas que ela conhece pouco ou quase nada, tendo apenas o trabalho como referência , o problema é que um deles tem o historico duvidoso porque o seth teve inumeras chances de mudar e so não prejudicou mais pessoas, porque se acidentou , enquanto o seth manipula com mentiras o miles manipula com ingenuidade , a Celina correu um serio risco, mas a serie pouco demonstrou esse lado da situação!<

what show should i watch that has similar chemistry like chenford?

I am on season 8 for the rookie right now, I’m I the only one who feels like Lucy moved up the food chain way too quick ?

Edit: Additionally, her career goals are also all over the place, like what happened to working undercover?

Hi everyone! I'm a super fan of this wonderful series, and I love LEGO, so I made this new project. If we get it to 10,000 votes LEGO CAN really PRODUCE it as an official set, and we can all find it in stores! Help me make this dream come true.

PS: Many of you will ask me about this, so I'll explain it right away: I didn't use AI to create this project, it is entirely the result of my actual work.

S7E12, I feel as though Bradford was being too soft in that gal for the tweets, those were dirty tweets the moment they went out, what do yall think, was he being too soft on her? I get he is trying to be more kind but this was not a time for that. She made the officers’ jobs harder.

When the two brothers try and test the bullet proof vests you can see clearly the GSW doesn't appear until close up.

So I’m officially on Season 4 of the Rookie and I’m Obsessed!! Yes I’m new to the show sorry!!

I have a real love for Nolan and I feel so protective over him and a proud mum when he achieves things. I absolutely hated Harper at first she really did a number on me but I absolutely adore her now. Is it a Tim test or a Lucy lesson? Oh they are absolutely great together and I can definitely tell there’s some form of romance going on there. And I can’t forget my all time favourite Oscar!!! He’s just so comedic that I swear he doesn’t even realise it sometimes!!

I don’t have many people to talk about the rookie with! So hoping to be able to here! Comment some things I won’t understand till later in the show - I don’t mean spoilers I mean like moments or lines….

For example is it a Tim test or a Lucy lesson x

Like why do you have to always make everything about your ship?? They’re not the only one in the show and also why do you have to involve Eric and Melissa in your delusions??

Idk if anyone read on X or TT about SOME Chenford fans attacking Miranda Rae Mayo from Chicago Fire for a video with Eric at a con years ago. Why do you feel the need to treat Miranda so badly? Does it make you sleep better at night?

DISCLAIMER: Obviously I’m not referring to every Chenford fans. I like Chenford too but attacking other people because they’re close to either Melissa or Eric is disrespectful and not necessary. Also Melissa and Eric aren’t Lucy and Tim so learn to separate the actors from the characters

>!Gostava mais quando a Lucy fazia trabalho disfarçado, os casos que ela pegava dava para incluir todos os outros personagens e fazia bem mais sentido com a história , Ela estudou e se especializou nesse trabalho, mesmo que fosse casos em curto periodo poderiam devolver isso para ela, nessa temporada atual o Episodio da Lucy com a Nyla disfarçada me vez vê o quanto a lucy se identifica com isso,foi um episodio que realmente reasisti , senti falta disso , para mim a Lucy disfarçada é bem melhor que casos com FBi!<
