Are there any other similar shows out there? We've watched Angie Tribeca, which was really good (apart from the final season) although it was more akin to Police Squad/Naked Gun for visual silly gags.

Also working through Scrubs, it's good, but not as good as Brooklyn Nine-Nine.

Took me a few episodes to get into it, but yep, it's a cracking show.
Was really sad to see it come to an end.

Try Green Wing, it's excellent and suitably bizarre.

Last series felt like a drop in quality for me, might be a good time to end as they seem to be running out of ideas.

First episode was just terrible, I zoned out and was background noise, Theyve done some current topics/social justice episodes before which were never great but this was just a 25 minute BLM lecture. Unsurprisingly it has the worst episode rating of all time.

2nd was was more like normal Brooklyn nine nine, Hopefully the rest are back to normal.

Agreed, Ep1 was ‘clunky’ and felt forced. I guess they had to do something.

Ep2 was much better, classic 99 as in it was good, but also a bit like some earlier ones.

I’ll be sad when it ends.
