hendersonrocks December 10, 2018 Share December 10, 2018 Oh, that alternate version is so much better! I watched two more quarters of last night's football game than I wanted to just to see what aired since they kept teasing it. I'm really excited Andy Samberg is hosting the Globes, one because I think he'll be great, but two because I hope it will bring some new viewers to the 99. 2 Link to comment
jelaine December 10, 2018 Share December 10, 2018 One of the best parts of that trailer, besides everything, is the fact Boyle would have said, "something magnificent" regardless of what Jake was doing. There was obviously something off about everyone else's lines, but Boyle would say that no matter what. 4 Link to comment

I wonder if that's a signal the show is changing focus, or if it's just being dangled in the promos to get new viewers to give it a chance. My guess is to clue in new viewers since they're not just trying to get people to watch a new show, but trying to get them to watch a pre-existing show with five years of history. Having different "themed" promos (Jake and Amy, action, etc) is a clever way to do that and still show people what kind of show it really is. Also, I just discovered B99 on Hulu this fall, and so this season will be the first one I watch live and I can't wait! It's more exciting than a plain scone. ;) 5 Link to comment

Lugal December 15, 2018 Share December 15, 2018 After watching that (for longer than I should have) now I want to see the Joy of Painting revived with Terry Crews as host. Get on that, PBS. 6 Link to comment
peeayebee December 17, 2018 Share December 17, 2018 I started watching it and had to pause to do other things, but that is so enjoyable. I love seeing a painting develop, and he's very soothing to listen to. "Happy little trees. I always wanted to say that." :D I can hardly wait to get back to this. 1 Link to comment

Dots And Stripes January 7, 2019 Share January 7, 2019 We need a spoiler thread! Anyway, did NBC drop a spoiler in the promo during the Golden Globes? Spoiler After Holt reads the email and says he's sure everyone can guess what he says, he says he's smiling. That would appear to resolve the cliffhanger. Link to comment

formerlyfreedom January 10, 2019 Share January 10, 2019 Someone at Vulture ranked all the episodes. I don't necessarily agree with these all, but an interesting read. Brooklyn Nine-Nine isn’t only one of the funniest comedies on TV, it’s easily the most consistent. There’s almost never a false character moment, there’s a bounty of hilarious bits of physical and verbal comedy in every episode, and the characters are just nice — good people who are good at their jobs and genuinely care about each other. It’s a style of comedy developed by Michael Schur, co-creator of Brooklyn Nine-Nine with Dan Goor, perfected by other Schur shows like Parks and Recreation and The Good Place. As Brooklyn Nine-Nine returns to the air, switching over to NBC after Fox canceled it after five seasons (its ratings were never blockbuster), here’s a list of every episode of the Nine-Nine. (Note: Some episodes have been grouped together by theme or storyline, as you’ll see.) It was a tough task, as there are no terrible episodes of this show. Every Nine-Nine is a lovingly crafted, airtight little package of goodness. (Hey, title of your sex tape! Noice.) 2 Link to comment

That's a good start for B99. Having the "The Titan Games" as a lead-in definitely helped. I expect those numbers to drop over the course of the season, but they should settle in at "The Good Place" and "Superstore" levels (0.9 - 1.0). Still better than what they were getting at Fox. 2 Link to comment
scrambled eggs January 12, 2019 Share January 12, 2019 Thrilled about last night's ratings. Next week will give us a better gauge, since ABC's regular programming (with A Million Little Things airing after Grey's Anatomy) will be back. Hopefully NBC will keep up with the promos and not be like Fox, which hardly ever ran promos the last couple of seasons. 3 Link to comment

I don't necessarily agree with these all, but an interesting read. This person ranked the prison episodes, with the charming cannibal and Jake improving his mind through reading, much to Amy's delight, as the worst episodes. Hmm. I don't think I'm going to agree with him very much. Are they the best? No. But they're good episodes, with several genuinely hilarious moments. For me, the worst episode might be the one where Jake and Charles are trying to get Charles' sperm back off his ex-wife. Or perhaps the episode where Jake, Charles and Terry go to Lohank's cabin. And I definitely, definitely don't think The Box is the best episode. It's far from the funniest, and it doesn't have Amy, Rosa, Terry or Charles in it. In fact, looking through that list some more... that person's opinions are bad, and they should feel bad. The Halloween episodes are not even in my top fifty. I haven't really enjoyed that gimmick, and was kind of happy when I thought there wouldn't be one in season six. Edited January 16, 2019 by Danny Franks 1 Link to comment

The one who knew he was incompetent so he said yes to everything until the squad told him to make his own decisions and then he wouldn't let them go to Florida, resulting in them getting put on the night shift for a while when they went against his orders. 4 Link to comment
