There's a wait for The Rookie Season 7, and it gives us time to catch up

There is a long wait for The Rookie Season 7. ABC made it clear that the series wouldn’t arrive in the fall. We’ll have to wait until January 2025 at the earliest.

While this is bad news initially, there is some good news that comes with it. Due to the season having 18 episodes, it means that they can run back to back throughout the winter and spring. There isn’t a need for a break in the schedule like there is for a fall-released show.

On top of that, it means we have time to catch up on the series. Whether you fell behind or you just want to rewatch the seasons, you have months to do it. Now you just need to know where to stream the season.

Where does The Rookie stream online?

The good news is The Rookie seasons all stream in one place. You only need Hulu to be able to watch all the episodes that have already aired.

Keep Hulu for when the show does return. This is where all ABC shows stream the day after their air live on broadcast.

Buy The Rookie episodes on Digital

There is another way to be able to watch online. If you don’t want another streaming platform, you may want to look at buying the episodes. Sure, you can do it on DVD, but you can also buy the seasons on Digital. This means via Amazon Instant Video, iTunes, Google Play, and more.

When you buy the episodes, you only pay once and can watch as often as you want. The episodes are added to your free account on whichever digital subscriber you turn to, and there’s no need for subscriptions anywhere. You get the episodes for as long as you have your account.

When could we expect The Rookie Season 7?

How long do we think we have to play catch up? That’s not clear. All we know right now is that the season won’t arrive before January 2025.

If we assume that the finale will air in the middle of May and there are going to be 18 episodes, we’re looking at The Rookie Season 7 premiere to air around the middle of January 2025. This allows for a straight run through to May.
