Lori Loughlin’s Lieutenant Bishop in ‘On Call.’ Prime Video
Lori Loughlin is among the cast who will be starring in On Call, the first scripted streaming series from Dick Wolf‘s Wolf Entertainment. The police drama for Prime Video will release all eight episodes on Jan. 9, 2025, and adds to Wolf’s prolific slate of Law & Order, Chicago and FBI-branded series.
Described as an “adrenalized and visceral police drama,” the half-hour series, which moved over from an original order at Amazon Freevee, stars Troian Bellisario (Pretty Little Liars), Brandon Larracuente (The Good Doctor), Eriq La Salle (ER, Logan) and Rich Ting (Tulsa King), along with Loughlin.
The first-look images (above and below) debut Loughlin’s Lieutenant Bishop, along with Bellisario’s hard-charging but protective veteran officer Traci Harmon, who struggles to find her place in the department while training the next generation of officers; Larracuente’s Alex Diaz, an ambitious rookie who grapples with holding on to his optimistic outlook as he realizes the challenges he’ll face in today’s climate; La Salle’s Sergeant Lasman; and Ting’s Sergeant Koyama.

Former Full House and Fuller House star Loughlin was released from prison in December 2020 after serving almost two months of her sentence for her role in the Operation Varsity Blues college admissions scandal. She has since returned to TV by reprising her role in the GAC Family series When Hope Calls and a pair of holiday movies for the cable channel. More recently, she made a guest appearance in the final season of Curb Your Enthusiasm, where she poked fun at herself and signaled a bigger Hollywood comeback. On Call now marks her first recurring role outside the GAC network.
When speaking at the time to THR about Loughlin parodying herself on Curb, executive producer Jeff Schaffer said, “It’s great to be able to laugh at yourself. It’s a great way to put the past behind you. I hope it helps her career. She was great, and she should work. She was really funny and wonderful to work with. People should see, ‘Oh, she’s really funny. She’s great in this stuff.’ So yeah, I hope she does get to work because she deserves to.”
Earlier this year, Loughlin gave an interview, saying, “Every day, we’re met with different obstacles. But, for me, it’s like that song says, ‘I get knocked down, but I get up again.’ Nobody said life was going to be a breeze; we all make mistakes, but the important thing is to persevere.”
On Call is co-created by Tim Walsh and Elliot Wolf. La Salle (a former EP and director on Chicago P.D.) is an executive producer and director on the series. Dick Wolf, Walsh (Chicago P.D., Hightown, Night Stalker), Elliot Wolf (Dark Woods, Hunted) and Peter Jankowski are executive producers. The series is produced by Universal TV and Amazon MGM Studios in association with Wolf Entertainment.
