In other words, the show would have been good only for Season 5 if the producers did not divide its 22-episode roster into two and re-brand the second half as Season 6.
With the lack of news regarding the show’s renewal for Season 7, and a Season 6 that was actually a spillover from Season 5, fans of the show are already speculating that the sixth season may actually be “Rookie Blue’s” last.
Christon Shipton, Shaw Media senior vice president and chief creative officer, revealed in an interview recently that the show’s future was still under discussions internally. She added that they have been seriously working hard on it, but it’s just unfortunate that nothing was happening thus far.
She explained that she loves the show a lot and it would really be good if they could take a hit Canadian TV show to seven seasons because the list of Canadian series that has reached Season 7 mark is pretty small.
Shipton said that nothing is official at this point but she assured fans that her team is working for the possible renewal of the show for Season 7, citing that all hope is not lost and talks are still going on for the series to move forward.
