Summary
Reviewers say 'Brooklyn Nine-Nine' is acclaimed for its humor, ensemble cast, and character growth, especially in early seasons. The show is lauded for its diversity and handling of social issues with a light touch. However, some critics feel later seasons, particularly the final one, became too political and lost comedic charm, shifting focus from entertainment to social commentary. Despite this, 'Brooklyn Nine-Nine' remains a standout sitcom with memorable moments and a loyal fanbase.
Featured reviews
Brooklyn Nine-Nine is not only laugh out loud funny but it's one of the most underrated comedies of all-time! It's one of the rare comedies where every character on the show is almost as ridiculously funny as the others. It's also one of the rare shows where every season is just as hilarious as the one's before it. I can't say enough about how hilarious this show really is so just watch it for yourself!
It was a very good series. It was a fun, funny, excellent character series. Far from sit-com clichés. I can't find anything else to write, it was so good and great. The opening scenes were generally very good. I will miss this series. The acting was perfect...Last season was a little weak. There were a few episodes where they were terrible. But the series had an excellent finale. There was one character in the series that I didn't like at all, and that was Gina. She was a very annoying and boring character, but Chelsea Perreti played it very well. I had heard the show was funny and entertaining, but I hadn't started watching it. But at a time when my work was busy, I started watching it to relax and have fun, and while I was watching this series, I couldn't watch any other series.
Cool Cool Cool Cool.

B99 is a rare gem among serial comedy duds. It's such a smart and fast-paced show that never fails to make me laugh, smile, and sometimes cry at very touching and human moments. This is a comfort show for me and I love rewatching for the running gags, callbacks to previous episodes, and to see the character development as they grow as people in ways that don't feel forced or contrived.
The characters start out fairly rough and jagged with their own individual struggles but grow as a squad after the introduction of Capt. Holt. This is a feature, not a bug! The point of the show is that they're flawed!
Do not listen to anyone who rates this lower than a seven, most of the people who do can't be bothered to spell names right (racist much?).

I don't usually write reviews, but I felt compelled especially due to all the negative reviews due to a few bad episodes. As a whole, this show is hilarious, and heartwarming. I've watched it many times over and it doesn't get old. Season 8 has a few episodes that are very political, and while it doesn't bother me that they decided to talk about real subjects, the execution was poor. That said, it's very extreme to give it a 1 star rating because of that and very unfair when the show was consistently good up until then. And the series finale more than makes up for it. Overall, great show and highly recommend.
I respect that different people have different tastes in music, clothes, women, movies etc...but if you are saying that this show is bad I really feel like your sense of humor is lacking. I'm a detective for one of the largest police departments in the country and I will advise everyone that doesn't realize it but this show is closer to how real police go about their day than any of those CSI, or garbage procedural shows. Cops do all that stuff all day...pranking each other, busting balls, trying to have a little fun. The job gets a little heavy sometimes so if we didn't have some fun it would be long days. This show is hilarious and perfectly timed retorts by Braugher and Crews are classic. Its the low key lines that make I hilarious...the over the top cheap laughs are somethkng all shows have to do to please the masses...who are stupid. Pay attention to the underlying comedy...its priceless......."Terry does love yogurt"
Did you know
- TriviaIt was originally Terry Crews who started saying "NINE NINE!" on set to help motivate other cast members. The writers liked this very much so they decided to add it into the series.
- GoofsHolt carries a revolver rather than a semiautomatic like Jake, Rosa, Amy, Charles and Terry do because the NYPD allowed any officer who purchased a revolver prior to the department's switchover to semiautomatics in 1994--such as Holt, who had been with the department since the 1970s--to keep them.
