Anybody interested in or going to watch the pilot of the forthcoming TV show The Rookie? It stars Nathan Fillion the guy from Castle. It will be aired @ 10pm tonight on ABC I think. This TV show seems promising and at least it isn't a reboot. The Rookie (TV series) - Wikipedia
You're right - this one is not a reboot. But there was a show many years ago on ABC called The Rookies. The Rookies - Wikipedia
Another rookie based show I liked a lot was Rookie Blue (initially because of Missy Peregrym). I saw this show and it was okay, nothing groundbreaking and very network formulaic. I think the show is relying on the charismatic appeal of Nathan Fillion.
It was pretty good imho. Even though it may be an old idea/formulation for a TV show its still better than any reboot. I get really pissed off when I hear or see a reboot of TV show that was already great to begin with.
I used to like the original Rookies series when I was a kid. So this new series has nothing to do with it? I was kinda hoping it had some relation since it was on ABC, although in general I am not a reboot fan. Hopefully it is on Hulu.
