Summary
ABC canceled "The Rookie: Feds" after just one season due to low ratings and corporate restructuring. The spin-off series, starring Niecy Nash-Betts as Simone Clark, premiered to only 2.2 million viewers and was placed in ABC's difficult 10 p.m. Tuesday time slot. Despite some improvement with delayed viewership, the numbers weren't sufficient to keep the procedural drama on air, unlike its parent show "The Rookie" which has performed well on the network.

'The Rookie: Feds' originally aired at 10 p.m. on Tuesday nights — long considered ABC's death slot.
The numbers increased with playbacks, but they weren't high enough to keep the procedural series on the air.
