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
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.

Brooklyn Nine-Nine is easily one of my favorite sitcoms of all-time. It tells the story of the detectives of Brooklyn's 99th Precinct and their office manger. The detectives are all offbeat and easy to fall in love with. They will do anything to find their criminal and have plenty of fun along the way. Every character on the show is hilarious, there's not a weak link among them. There's literally not a bad character on the entire show. It's also one of the rare shows where every season is just as hilarious as the one's before it. The cast is incredible led by Andy Samberg, Terry Crews, Melissa Fumero, Andre Braugher, Joe Lo TruglioI, among others. It also has an endless supply of cameos throughout the series that are all fantastic. If you want a show that will make you laugh out loud then this is it.

Brooklyn Nine-Nine is definitely one of my favorite ever sitcom. It's a show of pure comedy with humorous stories that are naturally delivered by the lovely actors and actresses, but also with a consistent storyline which a lot of sitcoms lack. The other thing I've noticed which makes this show better is the exclusion of laugh tracks. Although, laugh tracks do, to a certain extent, seem to make shows more hilarious and to a point where even if you don't understand a joke, you'd laugh. But no, this show has no cheats like that and amuses viewers with original content.
The show also does not rely on one-liners or simple jokes, and instead, make use of the characters' personalities and actions to entertain viewers, which is pretty smart. Some might think that entertainment with personalities do not last as they stay the same and eventually people would get tired of them. However, with the ongoing characters development, their personalities and stories are often changing, which makes the show so fresh all the time.
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!
I tend to have to find things in between a kids show and adult shows so the whole family can watch and not want to pull our hair out listening to Peppa Pig's annoying voice. 99 did the trick for us. We watched the entire 5 seasons over many months and were entertained. I found myself wanting to watch the next episode before it was family time... so I ended up watching some episodes twice.
Generally it is a bunch of cops trying to do their jobs. It's less about the situation and more about the dialogue and how it's delivered. The do come out with some serious situations every once in awhile but even then it's handled with the same comedic dialogue as most of the other shows. Very well done, will be waiting for more seasons.

- 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.
