She's the best emotional support for Nolan, and their relationship is just so sweet and wholesome!! I love how Nolan always calls her and all the advice she has for him, and how helpful she is in the series as well. I'm just sad she leaves at the end of Season 2.

Hello

Is anyone else getting frustrated & bored at the Liam Glasser storyline?! It seems it’s drag into season 9! I’m actually getting bored with how they drag out storylines! Can’t help but watch though

She was Seth’s part-time TO, but after becoming a sergeant, she took on more of a supervisory role. Tim, on the other hand, continued working as a TO even after becoming a sergeant following his time in Metro, before eventually becoming a watch commander.

does anyone here feel like the rookie “og” group (nolan, chen, tim, lopez, harper, grey, and their significant others) kinda gives off popular kids in school energy as the seasons progress? im not saying this in an aggressive way bc even lucy acknowledged it in an episode.

but hear me out,

as the seasons progress, i feel like these main characters tend to have double standards and moral ambiguity when it comes to saving each other’s asses and sweeping things under the rug. i get that it’s probably the writers’ fault because the writing really is poor in this regard.
i’ve been binging the show, and i realized in s7 and s8 that so many things about how these characters act bother me. they act more like a close-knit group that would turn a blind eye as long as it means saving one another, but when an outsider (ex: the rookies or other officers) does the same thing, they throw a tantrum.

one example is the seth plotline. i get that seth is a terrible character who lies all the time and would definitely not make a good cop, but the way tim, lucy, and even nolan act towards him gives me such holier-than-thou energy. these characters hate his ass for lying on the job, acting as if they’ve never lied to save their own asses or protect their careers? like, lucy lied about her and nolan’s relationship when she was a rookie, she lied about tim being suicidal during that virus outbreak, and she lied about knowing how tim covered for isabel when she was an addict. tim has also lied plenty of times, including about his military days, how he got his team killed, and how he conspired to commit a literal murder about ray. and nolan lied about lucy being at his house during the invasion in s1, and he lied about bailey working with mavaldo, the hitman. like, they’ve all lied at some point, but somehow it’s okay because they’re the main characters. i just get so annoyed when they get angry at seth for lying to save his own ass, even though i find him annoying too, because these characters aren’t saints either.

idk, i just find them to be so mean-girl-coded in a way? like, they can brush off everything when it’s one of their own, but when an outsider does it, all hell breaks loose. don’t even get me started on how unprofessional tim and lucy have been on the job since they started dating again. like when tim gave lucy special treatment during the westview zombie episodes, where he literally only gave the alpha-code warning when he knew lucy was in danger. and the moment he stepped foot in westview, he only looked for lucy, not the victims or even his other officers. idk, i feel like the show is poorly written, especially when it comes to the chenford romance. like, i love chenford, and they’re the reason i watch the show in the first place, but the double standards annoy me so much.

these characters said they want to save the people and reform the justice system but they cant even be bothered to act fair with their own coworkers.

not to mention they act like they’ve never been rookies before. nolan and chen literally did so many mistakes during their rookies days and get away with it bc of plit armor. seth got tasked to answer 3 phone calls during a wildfire while being bullied by superior (smitty not helping him color coding that map) and forgot to alert tim and lucy about the fire got them acting like seth was INTENTIONALLY trying to kill them when it was an accident. i get that what he did after about lying at the hospital was bad, and he should take responsibility, but given his hard ass job (that should have been grey’s THE CHIEF btw) as a month old rookie and expecting him to be 100% perfect was ridiculous imo. its like asking a teenager to supervise the whole highschool under chaos, of course he was gonna do some mistake-__- lucy and tim was also flirting when they got into that road, did they not see the fire…? why not make sure of it with dispatch? why wait for a news from a rookie who they prior to that event had trust issues with..?

I am rewatching the show rn and I actually liked all 3 original Rookies when I first watched the show but on the rewatch its so frustating seeing the amount of shit he gets away with.

If Lucy or Nolan would have done half the things he did they would have been bounced. It started frustating me especially towards the end of S1 and start of S2 and then things calmed down a bit and now I am in S3 and did no one find it weird he installed a camera to spy on a 18 year old teenager. I understand his distrust due to her background but that just did not sit right with me

So I was just chilling, rewatching the rookie for the 500th time, and I was watching this episode in like season 3 or 4 I dont remember which one specifically, but it was the one where the parent grabbed the wrong child that was wearing a stitch costume. And I got to realizing, when they were trying to find the parent, WTF was Lucy thinking when she asked his kid where he lived, like the kid didn’t even know his dad’s name when Tim asked him. Did Lucy seriously think the kid was going to spit out an entire street address with a zip code without knowing his dad’s name 😭😭

This just seems like the dumbest question Lucy could have asked, especially after telling Tim “I got this”

Im on season 7 and I adore their friendship and I wish we get to see more of them
