Season 6 of the ABC police force procedural crime play series , created by Alexi Hawley , was shortened due to the WGA and SAG - AFTRA rap in 2023 . The cast and gang produced ten episodes showcasing the takeover ofMonica Stevens asThe Rookie ’s primary baddie , and the investigator and policeman of Mid - Wilshire had to call in reliever to take her down .

The Rookieseason 7 return in other 2025 .

In a sudden act of events ( which was n’t so surprising as many predicted thisRookieseason 6 villain theory after sequence 1 ) , Aaron Thorsen and Tim Bradford ’s therapist , Dr. Blair London , was working for Monica ( albeit unwillingly ) .

Simone Didn’t Have A Cameo In The Finale

The returningRookie : Fedsstars inThe Rookieseason 6 finalewereBritt Robertson as Laura Stensen ( with a haircut that made her almost unrecognizable ) , Felix Solis as Matt Garza , and Kevin Zegers as Brendon Acres . While it was majuscule to see all their faces on the screen again , one could n’t help but notice someone was overlook — theRookiespinoff ’s atomic number 82 , Niecy Nash - Betts as Simone Clark . During an interview withTV Insider , showrunner Alexi Hawley hash out theRookie : Fedscameosand why Nash - Betts was n’t in the episode . He order :

" I definitely wanted to bring [ Robertson , Solis , and Zegers ] in . There was a conversation with ABC after the sad cancelation of Feds about whether I could keep them in our cosmos . They ’re phenomenal and if those actors are available — and there ’s going to come up a time where they ’re not , they ’re so good — I want to keep them in our world . Obviously Niecy [ Nash - Betts ] fall into a different category . She ’s already off doing a clustering of high profile poppycock , and I do n’t needs know that I ’ll be able to get her back . But yeah , I just want to see them again , and they ’re so skillful . "

While many of the figure inThe Rookie : Fedswere challenging , well - developed characters , Simone doubtless made the show what it was . Simone was the face of the series , and her personality , charisma , and drive madeThe Rookie : Fedsset itself asunder from the crew . So , not having Nash - Betts inThe Rookieseason 6 closing curtain was disappointing and stark , to say the least , even though the addition of Robertson , Solis , and Zegers was a welcome surprise .
