Trouble in Paradise

These novelty episodes with terrible camera work need to stop.

At least once an episode I seem to say "this is so stupid" and this episode had me saying it several times. Virtually nothing happened except a hammy honeymoon plot... who takes so many cameras away with them anyway?

I genuinely wish they would kill Bailey off; she is so unrealistic, over hyped (while being totally puny and tiny - genuinely don't think she would pass as a firefighter EMT physically) and Jenna Dewan's portrayal is wooden and there's literally no chemistry with Nathan Fillion at all. John Nolan also has to be the most cursed character on TV... his career has been one disaster after the next! Even John McClane wasn't this unlucky!

I would definitely be down for an Angela/Nyla spin off though. They are awesome.

Definitely the most boring episode in the SERIES so far. It was worse than the true crime episode in season 7 that no one seemed to like. At least the true crime episode had a compelling mystery. This honeymoon episode was bloody boring.

Fillion and Dewan have ZERO chemistry together, especially in this episode. And the characters were even on their freakin honeymoon.

GET RID OF BAILEY.

She brings down Fillion's performance just by sharing scenes and interacting with him. I was so bored listening to Nolan and Bailey's conversations in the episode. They are just not compelling to watch or listen to. I am still perplexed why the show hired Dewan as his love interest, seeing as how their chemistry is like rubbing 2 soggy sticks together hoping for a spark.

Love the rookie - but there is zero chemistry between Bailey and Nolan. So tired of it. All the other characters are great (even Celina is growing on me but she is weak, too). Help this show! Bring back the blond doctor for Nolan. The banter between the cast is enjoyable. I don't mind the break in pace between intense crime scenes and fun. However, Bailey's acting skills are so poor. She can't even fake a yawn. Sorry Bailey. You are cute - but that's it.

The connection between Lucy and Tim is so fun to watch. Tim is a fantastic actor and so is Lucy. Love this connection. Please keep this going!

What has happened to this show? Almost every episode turns into a farce! No real gritty police stuff yet, and I doubt the will be much. Every episode turns into absolutely worthless sit com mush! All in all, season six has lost all credibility and bears no resemblance to previous seasons. Did the writers strike mean they started writing their own scripts, if so, stop! Any future seasons must really be better or you will lose every fan you ever had. Bad does no cover it. I doubt really, that I can sit through much more of this drivel. It really is such a shame to see it go down hill so badly. Maybe season six, should be the end.

Rookie is one of my favourite cop comedies as a long time Nathan Fillion fan. However every now and then they insist on this absolutely terrible gimmick of turning it into some kind of indie film fiasco - making it seem like the show is filmed from the actor's perspective with phone cameras or drones or documentary style interviews. It's easily the worst method to film an episode centered series like this and makes it almost as bad as the terrible spin-off that was cancelled after just one season.

The other half of the episode was typical banter, comedy and story of the show progressing, from advancing Lucy's side to dealing with the awkward events of last week. But dear god they need to stop with the bad camera perspectives.
