Television Brooklyn Nine Nine

Love the Halloween Heist episodes. This one was fantastic
 
I'm not as big a fan of Holt as some people in this thread, but "vindication!" had me belly laughing.
 
His delivery is amazing. That along with his character which helped sell that moment at the end.
 
Thought the latest episode was slightly below par to what BNN is capable of, but still an enjoyable watch. Pimento has to go though. He's such a misfit ironically.
 
I am going against the popular here, but I don't like Gina at all.
 
Thought Boyle was excellent last episode. Maybe my strange humour, but its the random stuff he says and Jakes reactions to it.
 
That B plot was the most cliche-ridden crap I've ever seen from Brooklyn 99. I really hope it was a one-off.
 
Thought this season has been going downhill, hope they can pull it together as this is one of the funniest when they're on form.
 
Loved the double episode. The reference to westworld... :lol:

But the ending.... :(
 
Really enjoyed that. Always great to see Doug Judy.

The ending though. That was so... not Brooklyn nine nine. Didnt see that coming, damn.
 
What the hell was the ending? Damn that came out of nowhere.
 
Good new episode, but what was the point of Gina being hit by the bus? In hindsight, that was such a cynical bit of writing. If I'm honest, I find the show a little less likeable because of it.

Chelsea Peretti is pregnant in real life i think, so I'd guess the bus thing is incase she wants time off, or to hide the "bump" while she is hospitalised during the next lot of filming

There were much, much better ways to do that than to have a shock ending. It was a terrible way to end the first half of the season and the resulting pay off hasn't been worth it.
 
Yeah, I thought the bus thing would bring out something more serious rather than just a shock ending which pretty much gets wiped out except a few gags for the next episode or two.

Happy its back though. Need more Holtisms though.
 
The episode as a whole was good imo. Holt saying theres a volume 2 was brilliant.
 
The show had to address BLM at some point, I suppose. But Eboue's right. It wasn't funny.

I can't begrudge them for the message, though. Probably in the long run, I'll look back on this as a worthwhile episode. It just wasn't enjoyable at the time whilst I was sat in my underpants on the sofa eating my evening meal of Wotsits and peanut butter.

Well, imo, it had the right amount of humour for a serious topic. I thought it was done well.
The holt and terry scenes were really good.

Terry: “Hello, Captain Raymond Holt. It is I, Sergeant Terrance Jeffords, your friend but more importantly, your employee”
Holt: “I’ve never heard you speak like this, Sergeant. I like it. Each sentence so rife with information. Go on, please.”

Thought Blackish handled BLM quite well, but then thats more of a message-comedy then BNN is.
 
I thought that was done really well to be honest.

Tough area to tackle and they got it just about right.
 
There was a double episode a few episode (though the two eps werent linked to each other).
Holt still has the best stuff. And its the right amount where you want more, but they keep it to that limit so it doesnt get too much.

According to Wiki they are also doing a double this week and next week, which will make it the season finale. Rushing to finish it, after having such a long mid season break? :rolleyes:

Really? I think his stuff is the most predictable. Every week he get a different nemesis who's basically the same character re-played over and over again, and they trade wordy insults at each other until Holt takes the higher ground.
