8
9	!!Andy [=McNally=]
10	A [[GirlNextDoor down-to-earth]] girl who is somewhat overwhelmed by the big city of Toronto, and attempts to retain her idealism.
11	->'''Played by:''' Creator/MissyPeregrym
12	[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/andymcnally_promoseason1.jpg]]
13	* ActionGirl: Played reasonably realistically. Expect Andy to lose as often as she wins in a fight.
14	%%* AmicableExes: With Nick.
15	* CountryMouse: Spent her childhood roaming the woods and looking for seashells on the beach with her father.
16	* HeroicBSOD:
17	** She suffers this at the end of episode 7 in Season 1, having killed a criminal in self-defense.
18	** Another when she sees a mother implied to be suffering from [[ShellShockedVeteran PTSD]] almost kill herself after her daughter dies.
19	* LoveEpiphany: Has one after Sam gets shot, causing her to break up with Nick.
20	* MissingMom: Her mom ran out on her in her teens. They eventually reconnect.
21	* MsFanservice: She's played by Missy Peregrym, of course the show is going to exploit her beauty from time to time.
22	* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Her real name is Andrea, but everyone, and the official site, formally calls her as Andy. Her mother shows up early in Season 3 and calls her Andrea, confirming that it's her real first name. She doesn't like it, though.
23	* ThatCameOutWrong: Has a habit of this, especially when talking to Sam
24	-->'''Andy (talking about her uniform, metaphorically)''': ''I have no problems taking it off''. ({{Beat}}). ''You know what I mean''.
25	* UndercoverAsLovers: With Nick in the beginning of season four.
26
27	!!Dov Epstein
28	A witty, charming, impulsive young man.
29	->'''Played by:''' Creator/GregorySmith
30	[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/greg_smith_dov_epstein__rookie_blue.jpg]]
31	* BadassBookworm: Is a savvy cop, and a decent hacker.
32	* BewareTheNiceOnes: Dov is a pretty nice guy overall, but in the Season 2 episode ''A Little Faith'', [[spoiler: he befriends an old drug dealing pal from his brother's life and rode around with him, then when the drug dealer went to an arranged deal, Dov loots him of all of his drugs and money. When asked about this, he mentions he played nice before "stabbing" the dealer in the back.]]
33	* EmbarrassingFirstName: Averted. One would think a boy named Dov would feel more self-conscious about it, but he isn't. But it turns out that in Hebrew his name means "bear".
34	%%* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Chris
35	* SurvivorGuilt: [[spoiler:After shooting a teenager, Dov is suffering from this as he had never killed someone before.]]
36	* ThatCameOutWrong: Says this to Gail after saying he thinks of her and Holly (Gail's new girlfriend) a lot. Gail responds with, "You came out wrong."
37
38	!!Traci Nash
39	Level-headed and pragmatic, with more confidence than Andy and a young son. Later become a detective during Season 3.
40	->'''Played by:''' Creator/EnukaOkuma
41	[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/enuka_okuma_28tarci_nash29.jpg]]
42	* RankUp: Became a detective in Season 3.
43	* StrugglingSingleMother: Traci has difficulty at times juggling her police career and motherhood (especially since it started [[TeenPregnancy when she was just seventeen]]). Her mom helps, but her son's dad is mostly useless.
44	* TeenPregnancy: She gave birth to her son at seventeen. He's in primary school by the time she graduates from the police academy.
45
46	!!Chris Diaz
47	A earnest rookie who knows the manual by heart and refuses to deviate from it.
48	->'''Played by:''' Creator/TravisMilne
49	[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/chrisdiaz.jpg]]
50	* AbusiveParents: His mother once had him stand still on a chair for three hours straight as a punishment for spilling some spaghetti on the floor. It is implied she had serious mental issues.
51	* TheBigGuy: Is easily the tallest among the rookies.
52	%%* ByTheBookCop
53	* FairCop: And the department openly recognizes this, using him in their campaign, because he's handsome and looks good in a uniform. Something that makes him very uncomfortable, after Noelle gently informs him that the Department is using him as a [[SoBeautifulItsACurse commodity]] just as much as she is being used as Female Officer of Color.
54	* GentleGiant: As shown when he rescues a stolen puppy and takes it in until its owners are found.
55	%%* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Dov
56	%%* HotBlooded
57
58	!!Gail Peck
59	The ambitious, driven daughter of a family full of officers.
60	->'''Played by:''' Creator/CharlotteSullivan.
61	[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/rookie_blue_4x2_pouting_gail.jpg]]
62	* AmbiguouslyBi: She never puts a label on her sexuality, but Holly was the first and only woman she dated. So it's up in the air if she's gay, bi, or pan.
63	* BrilliantButLazy: Steals someone's credit without a second glance and eagerly shuffles cases to another department when possible, yet can memorize a license plate number with a glance at a speeding car.
64	* ComingOutStory: A low-key one, while having exclusively dated men all her life, over the course of Season 4 she finds herself falling in love with her friend Holly.
65	* DefrostingIceQueen: Traci actually calls her Frosty. But as time rolls on, she comes to be her closest friend.
66	* HeroicBSOD: Gail is suffering from the after effects of being kidnapped, even to the point of joking how she wants to be taken captive by a psychotic killer again in front of her father no less.
67	%%* HiddenDepths: Which she shows when someone is hurt or nearly dies.
68	* ImportantHaircut: Cuts off her hair while freaking out in the season 5 premiere.
69	* LovableAlphaBitch: Unapologetic about her bitchy tendency, but once you befriend her, she'll have your back through whatever life and the job throws at you.
70	%%* MilitaryBrat: A variant.
71	* OppositesAttract: Had a past history with Chris, and attracted the attention of [[spoiler:Dov]] as well. Nick and Holly also qualifies. She tends to date nice guys and girls, despite being a bitch most of the time.
72	* SugarAndIcePersonality: Underneath her caustic, impassive exterior is a rather vulnerable young woman.
73	* [[WellDoneSonGuy Well Done Daughter Girl]]:
74	** She gets terrible stage fright when asked to speak in public, especially with her mother in the audience, and ends up pretending to be home sick both times.
75	** She feels intense pressure to be a better cop thanks to her family background. Not helped by the fact that the fellow rookies are under the impression that she uses her family connections to get along in her career.
76
77	!! Nick Collins
78
79	Former soldier who served in Afghanistan for four years before becoming a cop. Once engaged to Gail and was readied to marry in Las Vegas before enlisting.
80	->'''Played by:''' Peter Mooney.
81	[[quoteright:250:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/nickcollins.jpg]]
82	* AmicableExes: With Andy
83	* AmusingInjury: Repeatedly gets hit in the face in the season 4 premiere (first by a fellow undercover officer to make their exchange look more believable, then by a kidnapped Andy who doesn't realize Nick's there, and finally by Gail, who's lashing out that Nick disappeared to go undercover), played for laughs.
84	* BecomingTheMask: He begins to form genuine feelings for Andy, after the two played a couple while undercover for a couple of months.
85	* CloudcuckoolandersMinder: Serves as this to Chloe at times.
86	* DarkAndTroubledPast: His parents were killed and his older brother paralyzed in a car accident, leaving Nick in foster care. Didn't have the easiest time as a soldier in Afghanistan, either.
87	* DrowningMySorrows: As shown in "Every Man", he had done this once a year in order to remember after one of his teammates was killed in action when he took his place. He decided to stop on the day when Andy found him drunk, saying he would do something else other then drink.
88	* NewOldFlame: To Gail when he shows up in season 3.
89	%%* NiceGuy
90	* NiceGuysFinishLast: For an extremely nice (and handsome) guy, he's very unlucky in love.
91	* RetiredBadass: Well, he is a marine after-all.
92	* RomanticRunnerUp: To both Gail and Andy.
93	* RomanticWingman: Chloe enlists him as this.

133	* TeamMom: To all the rookies, but also basically everyone at the precinct...
