As we inch closer to ABC and Alexi Hawley’s Nathan Fillion, Eric Winter, and Melissa O’Neil-starring The Rookie S07E01: “The Shot,” the marketing machine behind the hit series has been picking up steam over the past few weeks. Yesterday, we were treated to a new teaser spotlighting where things stand with Tim (Winter) and Lucy (O’Neil) heading into Season 7 and whether “Chenford” can keep from blurring the line between personal and professional. For this go-around – thanks to TVLine’s “Matt’s Inside Line” – we’re getting an update on what holiday theme episodes will be in play this season directly from the best source possible. “We do not have a Mother’s Day episode this season,” Hawley shared. “We do have a Valentine’s Day episode, and we have an April Fool’s Day episode – both of which are very good.” We have a feeling that the dumpster fires of random speculation will be raging strong among “Chenford” fans between now and then.
Here’s a look back at the “Chenford”-themed teaser for the seventh season of ABC’s The Rookie, followed by a look at what we know about the season’s opening episode so far:
Not shown: Me, creaming. Until January 7
