For the second time, Brooklyn Nine-Nine has reached its end of shift. In 2018, FOX cancelled the show after five seasons, but it was saved by NBC. Last fall, the squad of the Nine-Nine wrapped up their eighth and final season. After the turmoil of 2020, with police forces around the country being called to task for their mistreatment, the cast and crew found it difficult to continue telling funny stories about the police without addressing the controversies.
Airing from September of 2013 through September of 2021, the show ended up putting together an impressive run of eight seasons and 153 episodes. It leaves a pretty big hole in the comedy landscape.
