@@latch9781I was editing that one and this one and the same session and got the numbers mixed up. 😂 Greenlight comes out next week though so get hyped!
I do like how they kept jackson inside. He was realy struggling with his fathers shadow and he was also realy cocky about being the best. He got a good share of humbleness during his plain clothes day
I definitely think they do his character dirty in this first season. He is such a heel for so many plot lines for no reason other than him wanting to be a cop his whole life 🤣 they did write him in as an arrogant brat
Plus, there is the fact that Nolan is shown to be aware enough that if he were actually alone, he would have cuffed him to something solid or whatever the correct call for that situation is. He went in there with her with the mindset that he had backup, and no matter the speeches about them not being there, the fact is they are, and their being there will affect the reactions and choices of the rookies
My best guess is senior stuff preplanned whole "You need to stay at the base and do busywork instead of going on patrol on your plain clothes day" to bring his attitude down a notch or ten, because he seriously had attitude problems in season 1
This Plain Clothes day also happens less than 4 months into their 13 month rookie year. And I’m glad that’s all pointed out that Tim must have actually been a bad TO to have that many rookies wash out. Also, their rookie year lasts well into season 3.
Im a military police officer and we have the same radio and PA mics in our patrol vehicles. Them speaking through the PA mic pisses me off everytime lmfaoo
I personally feel like they weren’t actively trying to make their rookies nervous, just basically saying “hmmm” to whatever decision they were making. And Chen was just self sabotaging herself.
Naw you have to understand the reason on why Lucy even arrested that guy. Yes, peeping tom laws exist and that covers the act of video taping someone changing which, is a crime of itself regardless. That is what the guy did and worse still, the woman was a teen, a literal underaged person. That's 2 crimes in one where he's invasion of someone's modesty and also pedophilia. Also, yes, Lucy smacking the door on him was abit harsh considering he wasn't of any major bodily threat to herself nor Tim but here's the thing... He resisted arrest cuz Lucy did use the loudhailer to announce that they're the police and instead of stopping, he bolted. He already attempted to flee and resisted arrest so that's one way to stop a fleeing felon. Not orthodox but again, in some PD, not punishable cuz he ran away from the cops. Unless the guy stood still and Lucy doorslammed him then that's a punishable offence but if he flees, no.
I agree that the changes for the peeping Tom part and her being underage wouldstick, I stand by arguing that Chen's use of force was unreasonable and would (if this was real life) would have led to discipline for misconduct
@@OnlyCops Not really. Again, if he didn't flee from them, sure. Chen would definitely be marked for repremandation like the one on how she threatened a civilian but for this, it's different. The guy ran when she announced that they're the cops. That gives a blanket authority to find ways to stop a fleeing felon. It's almost the same kind of judgement as pouncing on a suspect from a dead run but it's with a car door. Again, yes, dangerous and unorthodox but it's not a straight up punishable offence as, again, suspect fled. Seen such things happen before with Arizona State Police and even THP where suspects went on a speedy chase, fled from their vehicle and as cops can't dismount quick enough, just went forward and smacked the suspects with their door whilst still moving before stopping, dismount and arrest the suspects. So no, not all the time it would lead to a disciplinary. It's only when it comes to circumstances and for this case, again, abit stronghanded but warranted so Lucy actually got reasons to use the door this way.
@@OnlyCops Plus even if the guy sues, he's getting his case tossed right out the window cuz what he did when the cops arrived was already a criminal offence for one.
I am waiting for episode 6 of season 3. Which I took long time to resume watching the series after that. Still didn't finish the series because it became more and more unrealistic for a former leo like myself. (not from U.S thou)
@@Tomoesong What about that particular episode made you stop watching? The kids in his class were everything I hate about society today for sure but not enough to make me stop watching.
@@OnlyCops I wouldn't say that exactly, I think it retains a decent amount of realism for aTV show, it just drops in an episode here and there full of "yeah, that's never going to happen in real life". Tbh it makes a nice change usually.
I really Like theses guy's input, the ONLY thing that makes me wanna use the "It is a tv show" Card on them is the radio chatter stuff ONLY because that would add like a million pages to the script
If the handcuffed guy running away falls and gets hurt because he's cuffed, then sues the plain clothes officer along with everyone else, is the plain clothes officer off the hook because they're observing?
@@OnlyCops I'm super late to the convo and binge watching this playlist😂i have to ask, how would either officer be at fault for the suspect getting hurt while running away? If he runs he's resisting right? Or is he in custody because of the cuffs? It's nobodys fault but his own, he's the ass clown that chose to take off in cuffs😂
I'm not cop but seeing as how they didn't pat him down hands on head make sense. If he has a gun in his waist letting him put his arms down there isn't the best call
@@OnlyCops Silly question.....are you guys trained to cuff first then pat down or pat down first? i could see arguments for either way. (I'm also assuming ya'll worked in pairs not solo)
As a former barista I'm horrified you think an Espresso machine takes a full hour to brew Espresso... I would have been murdered nearly everyday by impatient caffeine addicts waiting in a gigantic waiting line
🤣🤣🤣🤣 same from back in my working in a coffeeshop while in college. I'm not sure how the show contrived such a ludicrous situation, but it's par for the course so far with the Rookie 🤣
@@OnlyCopsPerhaps the writers are basing the time off of how long it takes their PAs to bring them their specific coffee order? I dunno. Even the full process of taking apart and cleaning an espresso machine after making a coffee would hardly take that long (as in the process at the end of the day at closing)
It seems to vary by department. At my department, the FTO (Sgt) forgot it was my "shadow phase" so he took off all of his hear and turned his tee shirt inside out and put on his gun and jumped in the passenger side.
Not in a million years 🤣 those detective units work hand in hand with patrol to close out or work on cases, they are not part of the same chain of command and have very different objectives while at work.
Something I will never understand is, LAPD is very clear how to report a shooting on radio. "7 Adams 18, shots fired, officers need help." Then give the location. You don't call backup code 3, that is very redundant sometimes they will also verbally request an Airship and a sergeant which is also redundant In the episode where officer Bradford is shot, the first season, Lucy Chen puts out the call exactly how it is supposed to be. Then she adds "please send help right away" No real life rookie would make that mistake.
A rookie might, but they should get make fun of for it 🤣 Radio etiquette is often not taught in Academy, so it's something your FTO teaches you, but it takes time to figure it out
Can you guys react to Bosch? It’s more oriented around homicide detectives rather than patrol but I find it to be one of the better cops shows with a good amount of realism. It’s a pretty well written well acted cop show.
@@OnlyCops that would be awesome, it’s a pretty underrated and lesser known show but still very good! It’d be cool to hear insight on how realistic or fake a lot of the cases are. One thing I should mention. Each season covers multiple cases as they develop simultaneously and it’s not like law and order or something where they find the bad guy by the end of an episode. It shows a lot of actual detective work (with some nonsensical action sprinkled in to keep it entertaining).
For the peeping tom scene, I cant remember the case, but I'm pretty positive there is legal precident for headlong flight at the sight of police being PC for at least detainment, even with no other indication of a crime yet occuring. Dude clearly looked at her when she sounded her siren, and the proceeded to run when he was previously stationary before he became aware of police presence, so I think it could be articulated against any claim of impromptu cardio. And between the siren/lights and her calling over the PA for him to stop while he continued to flee, she should have resisting pretty easy. That being said, I get the feeling door checking isnt a part of the standard LAPD use of force matrix 😂
I totally get the detainment portion to at least get the details of whether or not it would fit the elements of the offense. I don't know that unprovoked flight would be enough, but I always errored on the side of "if it's too big of a stretch, you don't have it"
What is the average amount handcuffs a cop should own.and do they provide you with any. Just seems like Nolan always has multiple pairs of handcuffs with him even out if uniform.
I kept 2 on my person but had 4 total (kept two in my patrol car). My police department gave me 1 pair of handcuffs and that was it. The rest I had to buy
@@OnlyCops thats messed up so the department only gives you eneough handcuffs for one guy. So technically you could just arrest one guy then when asked why you let the rest of the criminals go you can say because the department is to underfunded to provide you with enough handcuffs to arrest multiple people. But funny they have enough money to pay their top brass extremely I mean extremely well.
@@OnlyCopsI mean, combat veteran, respectable and honorable boss and public servant, dedicated and loyal to her duty, caring and kind to even the lowest ranked officer in the department. Never treating their issues as trivial or beneath her,
9:42 how in the hell can you use 2hrs to change a battery ?? Are the people mentally challenged at the LPD???? Even going out and buying a new battery shouldn't take 2hrs Can the guy just come walking in and demand to use her Rookie for whatever purpose he want,shouldn't he need to go higher up on the food chain getting green light for that?? Also. Wouldn't that be helping the lawyer for the other team? If he find out a rookie has done the evidence??? Seem so wrong since he is suppose to get field training in Undercover/plainclothes work? (Remind of heartbreak ridge. When highway get criticized for actually training his men for battle.Instead of letting them walk around unprepared ) 15:35 shouldn't he have his weapon out at that point????? 2 possibly armed thugs are beating up another guy,and he runs in head first. What was the plan?? Yelling Surprise!! were from jehovah witness,do you have a minute?(Ok that was unfair.Everyone would run if he said that)But still running around in a warehouse/factory looking for suspect.Alone.Seem kinda dumb. 17:05 Seem kind of weird thing to do. IF the suspect now got away,and managed to kill or rape someone. Wouldn't that go back on the department? And since shit floats downward kind of fast,wouldn't it affect both their career`?? I mean if he in court says something like Yeaah. RBF overthere saw me get up and runaway but she didn't do anything to stop me. 47:48 I would've shot him.Just for being an asshole
If you guys are super annoyed by the way The Rookie, a show I like a lot, unrealistically protects suspects (no one ever dies) you should look up Flashpoint, a canadian show about a canadian Swat team that I always thought was really realistic and doesn't pull it's punches.
I'm pretty sure that the girl in the peeping tom scene was meant to be underage...you can see her in the background with her mom in the driveway towards the end of the scene...that's the reason for detainment.
I'm 100% on board with the detention, the use of force was just wild and she went straight to arrest before doing the investigation. Skipping steps in investigations is how the sickos get away with stuff like this in the wild
@@OnlyCops Oh yeah 100% agree with that...the dude was slower than a fat man running away from cake and Chen has shown some pretty super hero-esc scrapping skills...the door slam was definitely an ambulance chaser's wet dream.
Not sure the theory of where the police are is where crime doesn't happen always works. I was working at a shop in the UK whilst police were taking a statement from me and we had a Shoplifter come in, assault a member of staff and steal from the shop right in front of the police officer who promptly stopped him and nicked him.
@@OnlyCops fair play. You know you should review some UK based police stuff and do a comparison between American and British policing. Try a documentary called Police Interceptors from Channel 5 UK. I think that it would be an interesting idea because I'm guessing that there's a huge difference between the two not just because of firearms. You can even see if Ben Pearson would come on with you as he's a UA-cam personality now but a former British Police Officer
@@CputtockDthomsonBlue Lights could be an interesting reaction too. Although it takes place in Belfast and it's a different reality from the rest of the UK. Funnily enough, as a police officer in southern Brazil I found this to be more relatable than american shows.
There is no way that detectives give material evidence to anyone other than one of the case officers. It is one of the most important jobs (along with the interview) of the case. If that falls down, your whole case falls down. Insane.
And that's not even mentioning that doing that bullshit Puts your own career on the line Detective put his career on the line to fuck with a rookie that's beyond crazy 😂😂
How could Bradford call for impound when officer Chen has her radio on her at all times. Did she just not hear Bradford make that call or did he do it over a text message
43:55 you might find out but I thought I'd put in behind remember this episode is the girl in the window is like 14. I won't even talk about the blue van 😳
With the motel situation, they have to come out at some point, so why potentially force a barricaded suspect situation? I have no law enforcement experience, apart from stories from like half a dozen family members who have served, including an uncle in a warzone, so please correct me if I'm way off, but it just seems obvious.
It all depends on the expectation of privacy based on where the changing is happening. If it's in the middle of the street there is none, in your house behind blinds, a lot
I love these videos! I am a true crime nut and ,(before I had kids) wanted to become an officer. I would love your take on this documentary video from Explore with Us! ua-cam.com/video/zOh7QmL8bVQ/v-deo.html Even just the first 15 minutes!
American officers arrest people without pulling their guns all the time, the issue I have is them tasing people who have guns in their hands or OCing a dude with a knife. Even in European PDs you would avoid approaching such an armed person without the lethal option officer on their way.
Sorry I got the episode number wrong! This is Episode 14 of season 1.

@@OnlyCops Well there could a be a friendly mayor involved.Haven't you guys watched Dirty Harry?? 😁
Not sure the theory of where the police are is where crime doesn't happen always works. I was working at a shop in the UK whilst police were taking a statement from me and we had a Shoplifter come in, assault a member of staff and steal from the shop right in front of the police officer who promptly stopped him and nicked him.
Nothing is 100%, but there was a decent amount of academic research behind crime displacement theory
@@OnlyCops fair play. You know you should review some UK based police stuff and do a comparison between American and British policing. Try a documentary called Police Interceptors from Channel 5 UK. I think that it would be an interesting idea because I'm guessing that there's a huge difference between the two not just because of firearms. You can even see if Ben Pearson would come on with you as he's a UA-cam personality now but a former British Police Officer
@@CputtockDthomsonBlue Lights could be an interesting reaction too. Although it takes place in Belfast and it's a different reality from the rest of the UK.
Funnily enough, as a police officer in southern Brazil I found this to be more relatable than american shows.
There is no way that detectives give material evidence to anyone other than one of the case officers. It is one of the most important jobs (along with the interview) of the case. If that falls down, your whole case falls down.
Insane.
1000% true
And that's not even mentioning that doing that bullshit Puts your own career on the line Detective put his career on the line to fuck with a rookie that's beyond crazy 😂😂
@@trippymlgjunkrat5749 the dsgt would find out about this and lose his shit every time
@@Rainmain667 I'd love to be a fly on the wall to listen To that fiasco.
How could Bradford call for impound when officer Chen has her radio on her at all times. Did she just not hear Bradford make that call or did he do it over a text message
He texted it on the scene
They also have different radio channels for stuff like that, he could have wither used one of those or called/texted it into dispatch
Isn't it obvious? He sent a text to his best dispatcher buddy Nell.
He texted while he was leaning against the van, because he already knew she would forget
Can’t wait to see true crime episode and Real crime episode
I'm sure it will be coming soon 😅
you guys should do the episode where nolan gets a greenlight put on him
That one is next week!
The next episode is so good I cannot wait for you to see it
It should go live next week!
43:55 you might find out but I thought I'd put in behind remember this episode is the girl in the window is like 14. I won't even talk about the blue van 😳
That will likely change legally what can be done about the behavior due to the status of the victims age.
Wouldn’t Nolan’s FTO at least get a command discipline for dereliction of duty?
Yes, or at least they should
Thank you again for the reaction on this movie❤. Grate movie❤.
Our pleasure!
Also, Ms. Chen with fourth amendment violation looking into his phone without a warrant. What was the exigency?
No kidding
With the motel situation, they have to come out at some point, so why potentially force a barricaded suspect situation?
I have no law enforcement experience, apart from stories from like half a dozen family members who have served, including an uncle in a warzone, so please correct me if I'm way off, but it just seems obvious.
That is also a great tactic!
@@OnlyCops I think I recently saw bodycam of that exact situation, probably why it was on my mind
I'm curious how a car that turns over has a dead battery....
🤣🤣🤣🤣 agreed, maybe a bad starter, but not a dead battery lol
Wouldn't the dog complaint count as animal cruelty?
It depends on the state and elements of the offense, but it definitely could in certain situations
Loving it! Great breakdowns lol
I'm glad thanks fam!
If you haven't played it, you should do let's play of LA Noire
We will add it to the list!
What a game but it’s single player
hey can you react to the one with jackston and stanton
Do you have a specific episode and season number?
@@OnlyCops There a few good epsode with jackson and stanton but one I was thinking about was season 3 epsoide 5 called lockdown
We are trying to record more episodes to get to season 3 faster!
How interesting.
Come watch it live with us!
I have idea for video reaction what could be interesting, UK vs USA police officer
That would be interesting!
Also... how to access your discord? Asking for a friend.
It's tied to our patreon, $1 a month gives you access to it www.patreon.com/onlycops
@@OnlyCops I did! I just can't find it ❤️
@@keriangerman8853 PM us on patreon and I'll send you the link
Can you do Season 1 Episode 16: Greenlight
It should go live next week!
What if the women is a minor
Wouldnt that be recording a minor without a parents content
Them being a minot does make it different, with or without the parents involvement
The rookie is sp far from reality it's cringe....team Southland
Southland is an absolute gem 😁
Wait its not illegal to film a women getting dressed? Is it just me or is that kinda fucked up
It all depends on the expectation of privacy based on where the changing is happening. If it's in the middle of the street there is none, in your house behind blinds, a lot
I love these videos!
I am a true crime nut and ,(before I had kids) wanted to become an officer. I would love your take on this documentary video from Explore with Us!
ua-cam.com/video/zOh7QmL8bVQ/v-deo.html
Even just the first 15 minutes!
Thank you for the kind comment and suggestions 😊 I also personally LOVE the come explore with us channel 😊 I have been subbed for years!
love your videos pls make more videos about the rookie ❤❤❤❤
edit- pin pls
We just filmed a bunch more!
You say it's not realistic to not leverage deadly force. But unarmed police forces all around the world manage it every day.
American officers arrest people without pulling their guns all the time, the issue I have is them tasing people who have guns in their hands or OCing a dude with a knife. Even in European PDs you would avoid approaching such an armed person without the lethal option officer on their way.
