The Rookie: Feds: ABC Cancels Niecy Nash-Betts-Starring Spinoff Series

ABC's Niecy Nash-Betts-starring spinoff series The Rookie: Feds has been canceled and will not be returning for a second season.


With the SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes having now come to an end (pending the actors' union ratifying this week's tentative agreement), the entertainment industry is left to deal with the fallout from the labor stoppage that resulted from the AMPTP's slow efforts to secure new three-year deals for both unions. On the film side, we're seeing the release schedule shifting projects to late 2024 or 2025. On the television side, it's seeing which series can be salvaged for shortened seasons and what can get back on track for next year and the following. And it also means that some projects aren't being picked up – and some series aren't being brought back. Unfortunately, that's the case with ABC's Niecy Nash-Betts-starring series, The Rookie: Feds – with the spinoff from the Nathan Fillion-starring original series not returning for a second season.
