Is there a chance that we are going to hear more about The Rookie season 8 between now and the end of October?

Make no mistake first and foremost here that there is a reason why a lot of these questions are being asked: The fall schedule has already kicked off and there are a ton of big-time networks shows already on the air. Once upon a time, the Nathan Fillion police drama was 100% a part of this lineup. However, times have since changed, leaving us now at a point now where we are left to wonder what exactly the powers-that-be over at ABC have planned.

Luckily, we are in a position now where one of the best indicators of the future is what we have see already in the past. Namely, the fact that The Rookie premiered with season 7 in January and moving forward, we are of the belief that we are going to see something similar. After all, doesn’t that just make the most sense? This is one of those shows that is better off airing with a continuous run and then also alongside Will Trent, which does also generate really strong ratings at midseason. We do think there’s a small chance that a season 8 premiered ate is announced this month but if we are being realistic, a more likely scenario is that we hear some good news moving into November.

As for what the future holds…

Early on in season 8 you are going to see a story that brings some of the characters all the way to Prague. Following that, though, we do imagine that the show is going to settle back into its typical rhythm and also a Los Angeles setting.
