Brooklyn Nine-Nine S1-8
If you’ve been sleeping on one of the best comedies on TV, Brooklyn Nine-Nine follows the exploits of the hilarious Detective Jake Peralta (Emmy winner Andy Samberg from Palm Springs) and his diverse, lovable colleagues as they police the NYPD’s 99th Precinct.
The eighth and final series of the Emmy-winning cop comedy series was nominated as The Comedy Show of 2021 at the People’s Choice Awards, where Andy was also up for The Comedy TV Star of 2021.
Season 8 has an 89% critics’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes, where the critics’ consensus says, “Brooklyn Nine-Nine faces big topics with poise in a fittingly complicated final season that attempts to meet the moment without losing its sense of humour.”
