That actress has been cast as a serial killer on three different shows now. I'm not sure if we should be worried about that trend or not.
Well, that was certainly a cliffhanger but one that some people probably saw coming. It reminded me of Rookie Blue in a sense. I've yet to watch that show fully, but I have seen some of it a while back. So, there are a few things from it that I can recall, they're just incomplete. One of them is Gail Peck getting kidnapped. That's what this cliffhanger reminded me of. Hopefully, Lucy will be alright. I don't think she'd be killed off, but you never know.
As always, the less grounded The Rookie is, the farther it gets from its strengths. The more it puts John Nolan in the heroic, always-there-with-the-breakthrough-insight role, the more generic it gets. So far in the run, even the episodes that have suffered the most from those leanings have still contained enough of the show's strengths – its performances, its character work, its charm – that it's managed to be mostly likable, entertaining and impressive. Sadly, this episode went so hard for its utterly generic serial killer potboilery, generously seasoned with John Nolan as the po-faced hero, that I was hard pressed to find even an ounce of its best ingredients. What's worst: the central conflict of this week's story isn't tied to one of the show's regular characters, instead leaving that crucial role to a recurring character we've only barely gotten to know. Instead of filling me with fear on the behalf of a beloved character, the final scene just left me exasperated at the completely unearned emotional manipulation the show was trying to pull by putting her in that position. If I didn't know better, I'd thought this episode had been written by someone only passingly familiar with the show. Instead, it was a collaborative effort between three staffers who all have, more or less, been with the show since the beginning. It's baffling.
Eh… good acting, and Annie was amazing for sure but… the plot is holier than the pope. Or a Swiss cheese. Or both. Also: why do the rookies go everywhere and why do they have to make Nolan so snowflakey? It’s really making the show worse.
call the police call the rookies call everyone ..... RIP
it was predictable ..that guy with the serial killer
Damn, Annie Wershing was so good here. It's a real shame she is gone. RIP.
Serial killer who enjoys killing, don't ask why, just stop her
Now I'll have to wait 2 months? FFS!!!!
