ABC‘s The Rookie is inching closer to the season 5 finale, and fans have yet to learn if the network is canceling or renewing the show for season 6. But as The Rookie cast finishes filming the final batch of season 5 episodes, we believe the future is bright for the ABC series.
The Rookie’ cast celebrates the end of filming season 5
On March 9 and 10, two cast members of The Rookie shared that they finished production on season 5.
Lisseth Chavez, who plays Celina Juarez, posted a picture of her outside Paramount Studios on her Instagram story with the caption, “Andddddd that’s a wrap!”
Eric Winter, who plays Tim Bradford, wrote on Twitter, “Season 5 of [The Rookie] is wrapped and what an awesome season it’s been. BIG thank you to all our fans! Remember we are back March 21st on ABC! #imwatchjngyou #vamos #season6.”
The Rookie fans clocked Winter’s season 6 hashtag, but the actor is probably just hopeful for another season. He unlikely knows something we don’t regarding the show’s future. Cast members typically find out about renewals and cancelations around the same time the public does.Will ABC cancel ‘The Rookie’ before season 6?
Eric Winter is right to be optimistic about The Rookie‘s chances for season 6. There’s no reason to believe ABC would cancel the show, mainly because it was the network’s most-watched drama in the fall of 2022. Plus, The Rookie‘s move from Sundays to Tuesdays in 2023 has bumped its ratings.
We would be shocked beyond belief if ABC canceled The Rookie after season 5. It just wouldn’t make sense if the network gave up on one of its top-performing shows.
So despite the lack of news surrounding The Rookie Season 6, fans should sit back, relax, and enjoy the rest of season 5. It’s only a matter of time before the cast and crew get the greenlight on season 6, which, if and when approved by ABC, would include the series’ milestone 100th episode.
