WendyCR72 November 11, 2018 Author Share November 11, 2018 After a PM from a poster, I have decided to split the spoilers and the news stuff in two. Since some like news but don't like being spoiled. Any casting news will go in here, as a way to keep things clear. Any questions, please PM me! Link to comment
WendyCR72 November 11, 2018 Author Share November 11, 2018 The media thread and spoiler thread have now been split into two separate threads as some posters like media/news but do not wish to be spoiled. For this reason, casting spoilers will now go into the created spoiler thread, as will articles pertaining to specific show details. General news will go in the existing media thread. Link to comment

The racial balance of the cast might have been maintained but the colorism issues of the black woman who replaced the black woman is going to provide more than a couple of howling protest.

tv echo July 25, 2022 Share July 25, 2022 (edited) Nathan Fillion & Niecy Nash-Betts Tease What’s To Come In ‘The Rookie’s Fifth Season & ‘The Rookie: Feds’ First, How “Mothership” Series & Spinoff Will Overlap – Comic-Con By Matt Grobar July 21, 2022https://deadline.com/2022/07/the-rookie-feds-nathan-fillion-niecy-nash-betts-tease-abc-spinoff-1235073909/ Quote Hawley and Winter shared that they’re currently three episodes into filming on both the fifth season of The Rookie and its offshoot’s first. The former said that the latest year of The Rookie will feel like “a real transitional” one, with “a lot of movement” — noting that the show will continue to tell “some harder stories,” with familiar villains returning. Fillion noted that the upcoming season of the “mothership” series will see his rookie cop “elevated to another level of his job and starting at rock bottom again” — becoming the rookie once more, even as he rises in the ranks. He also shared that Nolan will be serving as a training officer to a “brand new” female rookie who makes “all the same mistakes” his character has. “[It’s] kind of brilliant, the way we take a look at life and say, what keeps you a rookie?” he said. “What in your life are you still a rookie at?” Hawley said that there will be a “fun storyline” ahead pertaining to the pregnancy of Nyla Harper (Mekia Cox), who will continue to enjoy a Cagney & Lacey type dynamic with Angela Lopez (Alyssa Diaz), as she returns to full-time work as a detective. Also enjoying an exciting upcoming storyline coming up, per Hawley, is attorney Wesley Evers (Shawn Ashmore), who winds up “crossing over from the defense side” into the arena of policing “in a more solid way.” A final plot tease from The Rookie on Hawley’s part had to do with the burgeoning romance between Lucy Chen (Melissa O’Neil) and Tim Bradford (Eric Winter). “Obviously, we left quite the cliffhanger last season with the kiss which we’ve been building up to,” said The Rookie‘s creator. “There will definitely be some repercussions and fallout from that.” * * * Hawley said that multiple crossover events have been planned for the upcoming seasons of The Rookie and The Rookie: Feds, with Winter expressing the hope that ABC will ultimately be “lousy” with these kinds of episodes. “[The shows] do live in the same universe so we want you to feel like you can bounce between [them],” Hawley added. “They stand on their own but they’re super fun to watch together.” John Nolan will become a training officer in season 5 of The Rookie By Maureen Lee Lenker July 21, 202https://ew.com/events/comic-con/the-rookie-john-nolan-training-officer-comic-con-2022/ Quote Hawley danced his way around the No. 1 question on fans' minds: what's next for Chenford, a.k.a. Lucy (Melissa O'Neill) and Tim (Eric Winter) after that season 4 finale kiss? "Obviously, we left quite the cliffhanger at the end of last season with the kiss, which we've been building up to for four seasons," Hawley said. "There will definitely be repercussions and some fallout from that, but I do think it's fair to make you wait to see exactly where that goes. There's definitely going to be some carryover from the end of last season that's going to be very dynamic." Fillion elaborated on the actors' undeniable chemistry, saying, "You have one character who is so very tuned in in Lucy. And then in Tim, you have this guy who's so very walled off and closed off and so tuned out. I tease Eric about this all the time. All he has to do is a little tiny smile and everybody goes, 'Oh my god, swooooon.'" Terence Paul Winter revealed that the writers' room has been shipping this couple since season 1, originally using the clunkier ship name of "Tucy." Later, while teasing the first episode of the season, Hawley coyly noted the premiere could feature "maybe another kiss." Though that could be a misdirect, since the show is littered with couples, including Nolan and Bailey (Jenna Dewan), who Fillion promised will remain on very stable ground.

We see him start to talk to people and share what it’s been like for him. And at the same time, I think he’s trying to be the best coworker he can still be and find a way to, like I said, earn [Lucy’s] trust back. So we’re seeing a lot of that out the gate.” * * * “Let’s say maybe everybody thinks that that’s his girl and he leaves her high and dry for no reason because [he’s] working on himself,” he explained. “And you’re seeing him put in the work this season, you’re seeing her process that and how they can work together as colleagues. And we’ll see if the romance is going to build back into something or not.” * * * “I’ll be honest, [Tim and Lucy] were never supposed to end up together,” Winter confessed. “This was never part of the scripted journey. The fans saw something between these two that was so opposite, and thought they needed to be together and really pushed it. And the writers listened.” Winter credits The Rookie creator, Alexi [Hawley], for listening to what the viewers wanted and crafting a “beautiful story” for Tim and Lucy in response. “It plays out and the ebbs and flows in the long burn,” he added. “So it’s hard to live up to their expectations because it is their baby in a way too. But we’re getting there and I think they’re going to love it. I think they’re going to love where we’re headed.” Edited October 15 by tv echo Link to comment
