The ABC police procedural crime series, created by Alexi Hawley, revolves around Nathan Fillion’s John Nolan, who, at the beginning of the show, became a middle-aged rookie in the Los Angeles Police Department after a life-changing experience convinced him to switch careers. Over the course of the series, Nolan’s character has grown professionally and personally, including in his various romantic relationships.

Throughout the ABC crime show’s five seasons, Nolan has experienced an active dating life, which makes sense, given he’s the main character. From Lucy Chen (whose cringeworthy relationship with Nolan most viewers like to forget about) to Jessica Russo and Grace Sawyer, Fillion’s character has had his fair share of love interests.
