While ‘The Rookie’ and ‘The Good Doctor’ have become hit series for the American broadcaster ABC and have already had several successful seasons, Both series universes should now also be continued in respective spin-offs. The spin-off ‘The Rookie: Feds’ premiered its first season on the American channel in September 2022 and subsequently managed to significantly improve its initially mediocre viewing figures in the media library.
However, the decision on whether the spin-off series would continue for a second season took a full six months after production was unceremoniously paused starting in May this year due to writers and actors’ strikes in Hollywood. How reported, the channel features the series about FBI agent Simone Clark (Niecy Nash) but has now finally been demolished. In this country, ‘The Rookie: Feds’ can be seen with a streaming subscription to WOW.
“The Good Lawyer” is also canceled – before its first episode
In addition, “The Good Doctor” spin-off “The Good Lawyer” will no longer continue. The series was announced in August 2022 after several successful crossover episodes featuring the lawyers played by Kennedy McMann and Felicity Huffmann in the original series. While production here was halted from May due to the Hollywood strikes, the broadcaster has now made the decision to focus on other series formats.
This includes the parent series of these two spin-offs, which was extended for another season in April this year. “The Good Doctor” with Freddie Highmore is already in its seventh season, with ‘The Rookie’ joining us Nathan Fillion was renewed for a sixth season. The start dates of the new seasons for both series are not yet known.
