MEDIA ALERT

LIVE TWITTER CHAT WITH "ROOKIE BLUE" STAR ERIC JOHNSON, THURSDAY, AUGUST 4

Fans of ABC's popular summer drama series, "Rookie Blue," will be able to submit questions and receive real-time responses from Eric Johnson, who plays Detective Luke Callaghan. He will be up on Twitter at @EricJJohnson79 during the West Coast broadcast of the show on THURSDAY, AUGUST 4, from 10:00-11:00 p.m., PT. Johnson will also offer commentary on the exciting action taking place, as well as behind-the-scenes anecdotes.

On Thursday's episode, "The One That Got Away," Andy is worried that her personal problems are clouding her professional judgment when a woman is brutally attacked on her watch. Detective Luke Callaghan is convinced that it's the same suspect when the details of assault are alarmingly similar to the unsolved murder of a rookie. Ironically, Andy is caught between dueling theories of the crimes - one supported by Luke, the other by Jo Rosati. But when Luke is booted from the investigation because of erratic behavior, he tries to get Andy to follow through on his hunch - putting her in serious danger.
