Brooklyn Nine-Nine
Genre / Comedy
cast / Andy Samberg / Terry Crews / Andre Braugher / Stephanie Beatriz
Creators / Daniel Goor / Michael Schur
What is it about?
It’s the cop show everybody is talking
about. Jake Peralta is a young up and
coming talented detective, solving
crimes in the quirky unconventional
way that only he can. When a new
commanding officer arrives at the
99th precinct to whip it into shape
Jake and his fellow band of flat footed
officers are up for the challenge, with
hilarious results.
Why watch it?
Everybody’s favourite gap-toothed
comedian Andy Samberg of Saturday
Night Live fame really shines in the
role of Jake Peralta. He is genuinely
funny and charming and will have you
laughing out loud at his unique brand of
comedy. While the series is a cop show,
the true strength of Nine-Nine is the
characters behind the badges. Quirky,
in your face and just downright funny,
this is comedy at its best.
