The fifth season of the American police procedural show The Rookie is now airing; the episodes have not yet arrived in the UK.
The show centers on John Nolan, played by Nathan Fillion, who joined the LAPD in his forties and became the division’s senior rookie.
The show also stars Shawn Ashmore, Alyssa Diaz, Richard T. Jones, and Eric Winter in addition to Fillion. However, when will the new episodes begin broadcasting on this side of the Atlantic?
The fifth season of The Rookie will premiere on Sky Witness on February 2, 2023, at 9 p.m., and we now have a guaranteed premiere date.
The first episode of the new season’s official summary is as follows: “Rosalind, a serial killer, is back in Officer John Nolan’s face, and she wants him to know that she hasn’t given up on him yet. The Las Vegas Police Department, Detective Lopez, and officers Bradford and Chen are working undercover to apprehend the top crime operatives.”
The Rookie season 5 premiered on ABC in the US on September 25, 2022, and is still airing there once a week as of this writing.
Similar to previous seasons, the UK distribution of this season was delayed for a few months following the UK premiere. Similar to season 5, season 4 debuted in the US in September and will be released on September 26, 2021. On January 20, 2022, Sky Witness will begin airing in the UK.
