The Rookies
A new breed of
law enforcers can be found at Station Number 9 of the
Santa Costa Police Department. Newly inducted
Rookies Willie Gillis, Terry Webster, Mike Danko and Chris
Owens are reluctant to use their firearms in their daily
battle to keep the streets of California safe for the
citizens. They prefer a nonviolent and more humane approach
which proves to be more challenging as well as successful
but often puts them at odds with their hard-nosed commander
Lieutenant Ryker.
Though constantly at odds with their superior, the three
wet-behind-the-ears recruits proved that there's more to
being a good cop than toting a gun.
That was the
premise of one of the most popular TV series of the 70s.
Produced by Aaron Spelling and Leonard Goldberg.
The Rookies stars Sam Melville as Mike Danko,
Michael Ontkean (Twin Peaks) as Willie Gillis, and
Georg Stanford Brown (Roots) as Terry Webster. They
portray three young and handsome new police officers
learning to protect and serve the public under the watchful
guidance of Gerald S. O'Loughlin as Lt. Ed Ryker.
Also starring is Kate Jackson as Jill, a practicing
nurse married to Mike Danko. The Rookies depict the personal
and professional adjustments officers make as they embark on
their careers and focus on the dramatic police cases they
are assigned.

 Magazines and Articles
Georg Stanford Brown
says: “I was on an
interview for a job
one afternoon,” he
recalls,“ when my
agent called and
told me to go see
Mod Squad producer
Aaron Spelling –
they were casting
for a new police
show. I simply said
I didn’t want to do
a police show.” The
agent prevailed, but
when Brown walked
into Spelling’s
office he
immediately
repeated, “I don’t
want to do a police
show.”

Interview.
