The primetime series stars Fillion as John Nolan, the oldest rookie in the LAPD, who has used his life experience, determination and sense of humour to keep up with rookies 20 years his junior.
Licensed to more than 180 territories worldwide, The Rookie also features an acclaimed ensemble cast including Mekia Cox as Nyla Harper, Alyssa Diaz as Angela Lopez, Richard T.

Since debuting to outstanding ratings in the U.S., Canada and across the world, The Rookie has seen substantial series-on-series audience growth in many territories:
In the U.S. on ABC, The Rookie ranks as the #1 series in the Sunday 10 p.m. hour this season in both Total Viewers and Adults 18-49 (tying NBC).

On Sky Witness in the U.K., season 3 of The Rookie premiered strong as the channel's #1 show for the year-to-date. This follows its exceptional performance in S2 which gave the channel its biggest audience for 15 months (1.0m).
France's M6 saw incredible growth during its sophomore season, increasing by 41% from premiere to finish on a season-to-date high of 2.9m (L 7D).
In Poland, audiences grew by 35% from S1 to S2, with the current third series giving AXN its biggest single audience for 5 months.
