Where Was Your Favorite TV Show Last Night? Find Out Why It Wasn’t Airing and Its Return Date
Last night, viewers tunned in for their weekly dose of high-stakes police action will encounter a rerun in the usual 9 pm ET/PT slot on ABC, pausing the adventures of John Nolan (Nathan Fillion) and his team on “The Rookie.”
The current Hollywood strikes have led to a reduced number of episodes for many series, including “The Rookie.” This reduction means networks are stretching their content to cover the traditional network TV season ending in April/May.
In a similar vein, fans of “Will Trent” should note a brief hiatus, as the show pauses its second season’s new episodes on March 19, resuming alongside “The Rookie” Season 6 on March 26.
During this intermission, fans of both “The Rookie” and “Will Trent” might wonder how to fill the gap. ABC offers reruns for loyal viewers, but for those who have moved away from traditional cable or prefer not to watch primetime slots, Hulu houses a collection of episodes from both series.
When “The Rookie” Season 6 returns on March 26 at 9 pm ET/PT, it brings an episode filled with anticipation, titled “Training Day.” In this episode, Officer Aaron Thorsen faces his first day back post-assault, undergoing a gauntlet of high-stress scenarios to assess his readiness for duty. Meanwhile, the team delves into a murder case that might link back to the notorious pentagram killer.
Leading into “The Rookie,” “Will Trent” will air an episode titled “It’s Easier to Handcuff a Human Being” at 8 pm ET/PT. This episode takes Will and Faith to a town overshadowed by the myth of the ‘Boo Hag.’ While a suspect emerges swiftly, deeper investigations reveal startling connections to bygone days. Concurrently, Ormewood probes into the murder of a TV personality, as Amanda feels a storm brewing on the horizon.
With these intriguing plots, both “The Rookie” and “Will Trent” promise to return with compelling narratives that will once again captivate their audiences.
