Nathan Fillion had big news for fans on Thursday when he took to social media with a lengthy message about his show, The Rookie.
Fans were stunned when Nathan made the revelation, as they're eagerly awaiting a season six update.
Alongside a video of himself behind-the-scenes of the ABC show, Nathan wrote: "If I seem happy in this photo, it’s because of job satisfaction. If I seem content, it’s because The Rookie just celebrated 100 episodes."

"To everyone who works to put this show on the air, thank you for all the hard work over these challenging years, and congratulations. To everyone out there who watches, thank you x 100. For those of you who haven’t seen the Rookie yet, you’re in for a treat! 100 treats and counting. #therookie #therookieabc."
Fans flooded him with comments, with one writing: "Love it! We can’t wait for the new season," and a second added: "Congratulations on these 100 episodes of a job very well done! We hope for more," and a third chimed in with: "I just told someone to start watching it cuz your next season is due in the new year!! Congrats @therookieabc and everyone involved."
Viewers are eagerly awaiting more news about when the new season will air following the SAG-AFTRA strikes.

Unfortunately, the show also had some sad news with the cancelation of The Rookie: Feds after only one season. Following the resolution of the SAG-AFTRA strikes, the network confirmed that a number of spin-off shows would not be renewed for 2024, including The Rookie: Feds and The Good Doctor too.

Niecy Nash - whose character Simone Clark was the leading lady - took to Instagram to share her upset and alongside a video of her The Rookie: Feds team, she wrote: "When cast & crew becomes family, the journey NEVER ends…. See y’all on the other side!
"Love, #1 ( @therookiefeds was a casualty of the strike. Much love to all the Rookieverse fans) 22 episodes left for you on Hulu."
