The popular police drama show The Rookie could be renewed for another season by ABC. The popular series Will Trent might also get renewed at the network. The renewal statuses were shared in a recent report, which included information for fans of other ABC shows, such as Grey’s Anatomy.
ABC likely to renew The Rookie, Will Trent, and other shows
According to a recent report by Deadline, The Rookie, along with other shows such as Will Trent, Grey’s Anatomy, 9-1-1, and more, might get renewed for new seasons soon.
The network is known to release a report on the renewal status of its shows around January or February every year. While many fan-favorite shows are likely to get renewed, Deadline’s Nellie Andreeva noted that, due to current circumstances, they likely “won’t be without cost-reduction adjustments.”
The shows that are expected to be renewed by ABC are:
- Grey’s Anatomy – The long-running medical drama that is currently in its 22nd season is expected to come back for another installment. This is due to the show being one of the most popular and longest-running shows on the network. However, the outlet stated that it is likely that Grey’s Anatomy will face budget cuts.
- 9-1-1 – This show is also reported to come back for a 10th season. 9-1-1 is still one of the most-watched shows on the network.
- The Rookie – The drama, which is in its eighth season, is also expected to make a return to ABC. This might be due to the show being one of the bigger franchises under the network. The Rookie has also been able to break viewership records on the network.
- High Potential – The comedy drama might get renewed despite being quite a new show compared to others. This might be because the show became the number one drama for ABC this season.
- Will Trent – Will Trent, featuring Ramon Rodriguez, is also in line for a renewal. Deadline added that this is because the show has a good viewership and is among the favorites at the network.
- Shifting Gears – The sitcom featuring Kat Dennings and Tim Allen is also on track for a renewal at ABC. This might be because it bagged the number one scripted series title on ABC recently.
- 9-1-1: Nashville – The show featuring Jessica Capshaw debuted in 2025, but still has chances to get renewed. Despite starting slowly, the series recently achieved an all-time high viewership, thus increasing the hopes of the network.
