Brooklyn Nine-nine - Season 1
Raymond Holt becomes the captain of the NYPD's fictional 99th precinct and almost immediately clashes with Jake Peralta as he is childish but a great detective, who's as immature as he is skilled at solving crimes. In other events, the precinct's annual Halloween heist bet is established, Charles Boyle is shot in the butt while protecting partner Detective Rosa Diaz from a criminal with a grudge against Holt, the squad gets a glimpse into Holt's home life at a party thrown by him and his husband Kevin, Charles begins a relationship with a woman, Vivian, that ends when their engagement is called off and Jake develops feelings for his partner, fellow detective Amy Santiago after winning a bet against her, that sees them go on a fake date and have a great time. Amy begins dating Teddy, a cop whom she knew from earlier, much to Jake's jealousy. The season ends with Jake going undercover.

Fox placed a 13-episode order for the single-camera ensemble comedy in May 2013.[5] The series was picked up for a full season of 22 episodes in October 2013, and was later chosen to air with the sitcom New Girl in a "special one-hour comedy event" as the Super Bowl XLVIII lead-out programs.[6] It was filmed at CBS Studio Center in Studio City, Los Angeles.[7] The exterior view of the fictional 99th Precinct building was the actual 78th Precinct building in Brooklyn.[8]

In June 2020, Crews said that the planned direction of the eighth season was being altered in response to the murder of George Floyd, with Goor cancelling four "ready to go" episodes as a result.[25][26] Samberg also stated that the series would be "striking a balance" between addressing police brutality and maintaining its comedic style.[27] It also incorporated the COVID-19 pandemic during the season.[20] Although initially announced as part of NBC's fall schedule, the eighth-season premiere was pushed back to 2021 due to the pandemic.[28]

A French Canadian adaptation of the series, titled Escouade 99 (translates to "Squad Ninety-Nine"), debuted on the Québec streaming platform Club Illico in 2020. Set in Quebec City, Escouade 99 has a budget of 4 million for the first season of the series,[88] which is approximately the same budget as a single episode of Brooklyn Nine-Nine.[citation needed] Following the release of the first trailer, Fumero criticized the casting, specifically that of white actresses in the roles based on Amy Santiago and Rosa Diaz.[89] Escouade 99 is also already casting a second season.
Brooklyn Nine-Nine has been running for seven successful seasons across Fox and NBC. While all 137 episodes have packed in their own gags and charms, none of them could have become a reality without a successful first season. That's what we're here to look at now. To do this, we'll be using the star ratings on IMDb.
While the series began with tough, no-nonsense Ray Holt taking over as Captain of the NYPD's 99th precinct and his clash with Detective Jake Peralta, the show's first season ended up becoming so much more, focusing on the entire unit and their shenanigans. And thank goodness for that, because if I had never gotten to meet Gina and see her obsession with Kwazy Cupcakes transfer over to Captain Holt, there would be a huge void in my life that could never be filled.
But that crush became dormant while Boyle found love with food author Vivian. The two were supposed to get married and move to Canada, until Boyle told her he couldn't leave New York and she later dumped him. Boyle rebounded at the end of the season after getting drunk and waking up next to Gina. God do I hope the whole precinct finds out about this insane pairing in Season 2. And God do I hope the others tease them about it for a little while. It would be funny to see how Gina particularly handles the teasing, rather than being the one to dish it out.
She's amazing, she introduced Captain Holt to Kwazy Cupcakes, she was the master of burns on the show's first season, and she hooked up with Boyle. Besides that, when it comes to Gina, I think you need to watch her antics for yourself to fully understand her awesomeness.
He is introduced on season three where he and Rosa eventually get engaged. He fakes his death and goes on the run to escape from a mob boss who wants him dead. He returns on season four and begins to work as a private investigator. On season five, he and Rosa break up.
It took the wisdom of Charles to make him realize that having control over the situation wasn't as important as knowing that he went all in and did his best. So we ended this episode pretty much the same way last season ended, with Jake re-confessing his feelings to Amy. Except this time, there won't be a six month period of silence to make it easier for them...
At the end of this episode, Charles and Gina were in exactly the same position (pun intended) as they were in the season finale. Their secret one-night stand was easier to keep under wraps when Jake was away, but now that history has repeated itself and Jake's now here to complicate things, we'll have to see how this will work out.
I'm not sure how I feel about Charles and Gina quite yet. First of all, that was not a pairing I saw coming at all - I was totally surprised by it last season. It was really funny when it happened once, but I wasn't as amused by it when it happened again. I don't know if I like it as a recurring storyline.
Speaking of next season, this episode revealed a bombshell near the end via Jake going undercover for the FBI. Since his mission will take six months (the amount of time between now and when the second season would premiere), I doubt this will be something the second season will cover, unless in flashback. Still, it was a surprising moment, and is just as big for Brooklyn Nine-Nine as it is for Jake. It let the show briefly address a love triangle for Jake, Amy, and Teddy in a way that was believable and not contrived, and it opens up some fun possibilities for next season. When Jake returns he will have been an undercover agent in a life-threatening situation. We could see a very different Jake when he returns (or the same, who knows). 041b061a72
