The Rookie has become one of the most popular police procedurals on television since it aired in 2018. While the show began on the back of Nathan Fillion, it enlisted a star-studded talent roster to come to his aid. Fillion may be the only one to feature in all 144 episodes of The Rookie to date, but following closely behind him are four series regulars who have all appeared in 126 episodes, trailing Fillion’s total by 18. Alyssa Diaz (Detective Angela Lopez), Richard T. Jones (Lieutenant Wade Grey), Melissa O’Neil (Officer Lucy Chen), and Eric Winter (Sergeant Tim Bradford) are all series veterans who have been around since the first season. Mekia Cox and Shawn Ashmore have featured in 103 and 95 episodes of The Rookie as Detective Nyla Harper and Wesley Evers, respectively.
