I have been enjoying the Rookie.
I don't remember why I started. I never watched it when it was on Broadcast TV.
I must have read a good review of it. And it did get some good scores.
I loved FireFly. and I watched Castle right to the end even though I didn't like the last season that much. So I guess I am now a Nathan Fillion fan.
At first I didn't think I would stick with the Rookie. All the interpersonal stuff seemed too soapy. and the police stuff seemed unrealistic. Every episode has a shoot out. But after just a few episodes I stopped minding and liked the show a lot. There are a 20 episodes/season and 8 seasons. So I'm not sure I'll stick with it that long but so far so good.
One little thing I like about the Rookie is that they have some good guest stars. they already had Alan Tudyk on once. I wonder if him and Nathan are friends cause I have seen him and Nathan share quite a few small screens. They had Joel McHale (from community) and some other guys who just played themselves. (The character McHale played was basically the same character he always plays).
I just peeked and there are a bunch of Castle actors who will eventually cameo. I hope there will be more Firefly friends too.
oh and one guy I couldn't figure out where I recognized him from. I checked IMDB and was not familiar with him. Then on checking further I found out that I've seen his twin brother, Aaron Ashmore, was on a few shows I liked.
