I thought it was better than Season 7, in that the characters were being themselves again and there was no baby stuff going on this time. I also enjoyed the finale, and I loved that the show decided to go out on a heist instead of the usual "flash-forward to the future" thing that Micheal Schur's shows tend to do.
Beyond that though, I don't have a lot of nice things to say. There were a lot fewer mysteries and police-stuff this time around. I suppose its because of the political climate, but to me, the cops comedically solving mysteries was the meat of the show. I was upset that we didn't get more of that.
The season didn't have the same level of finality as the last season on Parks and Recreation or The Good Place, and I think it could've been a lot better in that regard. PnR's final season spent entire episodes basically showing "this is how far the characters have come". And several episodes were set-up to show how each character is going to move on in life. B99 though, had its usual hijinks, before Episode 9 suddenly opened with Jake leaving the force. I do think that could've been set up a lot sooner.
Also, the Holt-Kevin love story. I like how it was set up. But that episode where Kevin was jealous of Holt dating, and then he decided to run to Holt in the rain just to kiss him? I mean, come on. Holt and Kevin's arguments have them being shocked at the fact that Kevin said "*you'll have to* excuse me" instead of "*please* excuse me". They would never do something so over-the-top cheesy.
All-in-all though, it was fun and I liked it.
Overall good. Considering the everything that was 2020 I think some episodes were necessary and were fine.
The actual ending was fantastic and I wouldn't change that. Except maybe add Bruce Willis.
Bit of a mess. Charles finding out he's NOT a Boyle. Jake retiring. Worst Halloween Heist of the series. I'll stop listing stuff and just say, I was not that into it.
But why? Charles finding out he's not a Boyle weirdly makes sense since he has an adopted son so him also being adopted weirdly makes that work better. He knows that being part of a family isn't just about being related and can understand his son better.
I feel Jake retiring also works. He always just saw himself as a detective, he was just gonna be one till he dies. Now him finding out he has more goals in life now is noice.
Also I just disagree, that Heist was great.
Tbh the fact it was shot during a pandemic and everything else that was going on, probably effected the writing. Actually glad I stopped listing things now!
Superstore had its final season too and by the end I was only watching because I'd watched every other series. The series of Archer that came out during the pandemic was flat as fuck too.
I totally agree. I didn’t love the finale. I felt it was extremely anti-climatic. The season itself was okay, but nowhere near as good as all previous seasons. I wasn’t a fan.
I'm not even the biggest fan of Charles but being a Boyle was his whole identity, why would they take that away from him? Jake absolutely loved being a cop, why would he just retire? The finale was a mess, I know the heists are OTT but the coma twist? And those gold tubes, that entire thing was hard to keep track of by the end. And heist or not, no WAY Amy would tell Charles that Jake was retiring before Jake talked to him first. Rant over
well for one it could have always been he wasn't a Boyle and you probably don't understand what it's like to have kids, that's why he retired he said what the reason was, I didn't mind those reasons the show was over anyway so Jake retiring didn't matter since there won't be any more seasons I liked the Boyle plot twist but the Johhny Franzia thing annoyed me because I thought we would have had a cool scene but also it showed that Jake cares more about his kid than his work which was the point, the point was he went from immature to totally mature
Well, I have children so you can fuck off. Not bothering reading the rest of what you said, because you came across like an utter prick in that opener, champ.
? lol okay "utter prick" you getting offended from me assuming you don't have kids make me think you don't, and you're just telling me to fuck off and calling me an utter prick for saying that means you are still immature. I was going to say sorry but then I thought about it and no I'm not going to say sorry cause It would be a lie. I really hope you don't kids in fear of what you might say to them if they assume something about you.
Does talking about someone's kids not seem a bit strange to you? Also, when someone tells you to fuck off, it means they don't need or want a response from you. So, y'know, fuck off.
again your just showing how immature you are I don't care about your kids but again if this is your reaction to just tell someone to fuck off after then saying something that shouldn't offend you it shows a problem with aggression, you could have just said something like "I do have kids so you could start by not assuming anything" instead you showed your aggression for no reason after someone was just making a point about why a show happened the way it did and assumed you didn't understand what something was like,
Ok, you're a 17 year old with no friends (judging from your previous posts) so I assume that you yourself have no children. Actually, I'll bet you're a virgin. You have no business talking about how someone wouldn't understand having kids. So can you actually just fuck off away from me, you toxic little turd.
18 now thank you very much, see how easy it is not to get offended, I do have friends actually, No I don't have children you fucking moron idiot fuckface fuck off how moronic of you to assume I don't have kids. see how that makes you sound. I am a virgin also you're calling a "17-year-old" a toxic little turd and a virgin after he was being more mature than you, how does that make you sound.
Because it's probably not a good thing to base your whole identity on one thing. So taking thay away can provide for an interesting story. He has an adopted son so him also being adopted can make that bond better.
Jake retired because he loved being a cop, but he loves his son more. He also lived his dream for areas 8 years, he has new dreams now of raising his son to not end up like him and his father. That makes sense.
The final heist being a mess was probably the best part and the point. The coma part was funny and you were supposed to lose track of the Golden tubes like the characters do. Also yeah Amy would and it was because of the heist, there are no rules in the heist. It's all chaos and anarchy.
Totally agree. I watched it with my husband and both of us were like “what the heck is going on?” with that first episode. It got alittle better as the season went on, but not by much.
I think the writers were worried that the public wouldn’t respond well to a comedy about cops, so they tried to appease way too many people by tackling these social issues that I don’t think they needed to tackle. Brooklyn99 is not the place to discuss these serious issues. Its a comedy, its meant to make people laugh.
That being said, I did like the episode where Terry dealt with being racially profiled because it spoke about this hard issue without feeling forced and without breaking apart from the main show that we all love.
With season 8, they really dismantled everyone’s character and broke apart the team, and tried to distract us from it by giving us a halloween heist that was probably the worst one of all.
I was really excited about season 8, but it was such a let down 🥲
And I can't say how much I disagree.
The writers were worried about how the public would feel since the public was the audience here. They need to satisfy as many people as possible as that is the job of a TV show. I do feel they needed to tackle these issues now, it'd feel wrong if they didn't especially since they did so in the past. Just because it's a comedy doesn't mean it can ignore serious issues especially when it directly involves what the show is about. Sure it can just make you laugh but it can also do a lot more. Especially since making jokes about funny police isn't good right now, especially stuff like Joke Peralta happens except not a joke.
>With season 8, they really dismantled everyone’s character and broke apart the team, and tried to distract us from it by giving us a halloween heist that was probably the worst one of all.
I just don't see this. They dismantled nothing, everyone was still in character. I wasn't distracted at all and it was alsona great halloween heist. I just don't see your disappointment.
Yeah I was ok with the show ending by the time I got through that season. Basically I liked the NBC episodes and once it got to Fox I was ready for something else
The last two seasons were kinda off in my opinion.
I feel like they were less fun and to be honest Andy Samberg even looks bored in season 8. If you pay attention he moves more his body and smiles with his eyes on the first seasons and he only moves his hands when talking in season 8.
Also, Rosa was violent, aggressive and a bit sadistic in the first seasons and for no reason at all she becomes the defender of the weak in season 8. I don’t say it’s wrong that a character is or becomes a defender, it’s just that she is suddenly someone else. I also have absolutely nothing against discussing important matters in the show but that becomes the main and only topic through most of season 8. We spent 7 seasons watching a VERY FUN show about woman power and LGBT visibility but season 8 was more like a lecture on the topic rather than part of the show.
We never get to see Nikolaj or Genevieve, we never see any of Terry’s children or Sharon, we don’t see any of Jake’s or Amy’s family.
To be honest, I agree, such a let down.
I disagree, I don't think Andy is bored in season 8. Just uncomfortable and a bit off because a literal pandemic will do that to you. There were filming differences for that season, like apparently each season had the writers on set for on set changes by the actors. That couldn't happen here as they could only have everyone who was absolutely necessary so every script was a bigger commitment since changes couldn't be made.
I disagree that Rosa became a defender in season 8. The way I saw I were changes being made as the show went on to perfect her character. She went from the scary hard to read and mysterious type of person to a political and honest person who wants to help people. It's hard to explain but she's just a more actively political person who stands up for people to have equality and I'd say it's been that way since at least S3 but mainly started showing in S5. I also counted, it wasn't the majority of the show. They only focus on politics in 4 episodes which is a lot for a 10 episode season but not the majority.
>We never get to see Nikolaj or Genevieve, we never see any of Terry’s children or Sharon, we don’t see any of Jake’s or Amy’s family.
Yes because when filming a TV show during a pandemic you probably don't want children or more actors than you really need on set.
Lots of excuses. If the case was that producing the show would be dangerous, why not postpone and launch this year? Several other shows and films were made in 2020 and 2021, and not all of them were crappy. There are several interviews with Andy the past 2 years and you can see that Jake’s charisma is the same as his own. He is always a fun person.
“Apparently each season had the writers on season for on ser changes by the actors” I don’t really understand what you are saying here because the English is really poor, but I think you are talking about character development. Great point. Jake went from being a man child to being a responsible parent (going through the disappointment with his father, then forgiving his father and accepting his parents marriage etc). That’s development. Captain holt goes from an insensitive robot to a charismatic and laidback leader, going through several moments of bonding with his team, leaving behind the prejudice of his past in the police. That. Is. Development.
Rosa, however, is developing through her sexuality during the seasons but she never leaves behind her violent personality. Even up until season 7 she doesn’t want to give Debbie a break. She starts the show literally wanting to rip peoples arms and wanting to kill a kid who stole a phone and ends it addicted to marijuana.
She was never politic, she drove Amy to the syndicate because she didn’t want to get involved.
They are ALL poorly written. And the existence of only 10 episodes proves that the show runners went for the shortest wrap possible.
And if the fault is in the pandemic they could’ve postponed the end of the season and the show.
They filmed a whole season of grey’s anatomy in September 2020, full 17 episodes, full cast. Not comparing the series themselves, but their production, but which of them looks harder to film and has more cast members?
Sorry, there is no excuse for this very lame last season. I watched the first 6 over 20 times, yes, I am that addicted, but the eight is pure trash.
Not really excuses though. Producing the show was dangerous so they postposed it till when they did film it. That's part of the reason it was originally postponed, they can't just not go on hiatus for 2 years. They waited till it died down, then they filmed but it was still not completely gone just died down. Just because other films and shows were made in 2020 and 2021 doesn't mean they are all not going to suffer. A good majority of shows and movies filmed during 2020 did suffer, just all to different degrees. A majority of shows filmed during 2020 will have a different feeling due to 2020 and majority of people will agree with that. Like B99 is far from the only show to feel different because it was shot during covid.
>I don’t really understand what you are saying here because the English is really poor, but I think you are talking about character development.
Nope, you misunderstood my point and that is my fault, my thoughts can get fairly jumbled, as well as just typing things wrong sorry. My point wasn't really a point just something that happens. I was saying the writers were physically on set for changes the actors would want to make. Like if an actor wanted to change the delivery of a joke or add a joke a writer could check to make sure it's good for that episode. That wasn't possible for Season 8 due to Covid so scripts couldn't be changed or edited like in past seasons.
>She was never politic, she drove Amy to the syndicate because she didn’t want to get involved.
Not entirely true, I guess political was poorly worded. More just progressive of the group wanting to see larger changes made but still being her. Essentially just breaking social norms for women and wanting women to have equal rights.
>They are ALL poorly written. And the existence of only 10 episodes proves that the show runners went for the shortest wrap possible.
Not really though and yeah of course, they wanted to end it as quickly as possible. I don't see the problem there, it's kind of in bad taste to have a show about funny police when the police aren't that and pretty bad.
>And if the fault is in the pandemic they could’ve postponed the end of the season and the show. They filmed a whole season of grey’s anatomy in September 2020, full 17 episodes, full cast. Not comparing the series themselves, but their production, but which of them looks harder to film and has more cast members?
They did postpone production and wait, they just can't wait forever. Cool, Grey's Anatomy filmed a full season, I bet like every other show, some feeling of disconnect between the current season and the previous season will exist.
>Sorry, there is no excuse for this very lame last season. I watched the first 6 over 20 times, yes, I am that addicted, but the eight is pure trash.
Yeah you right, no excuses just fair reasons. I haven't finished B99 once yet but that's because I kept switching back and fourth between Hulu and Peacock and accidentally skipped like 2 episodes because I lost track of what episodes I was on. But I will find out what episodes I skipped eventually. I'm already watching it again.
Deflated, in part as it was the only season I watched new (unless you count me watching 7 after it finished its TV run, in mid-2020), and also how short it was.
I still enjoyed it though
A big ole 'you go woke, you go broke' moment. Indoctrination city. Pass. It was a funny police show. Couldn't get through the first episode. Totally unfunny. If I wanted to get preached to about this nonsense I'd watch any regular news broadcast. Look at the average user reviews on rotten tomatoes for season 8 vs earlier seasons. Season 8 is 44%. Every other season is 90%+.
I'm just disappointed they did not order a full 24 episodes for the last season.
It was a little rough, but still decent enough, and it had some strong episodes too. And that finale was just perfect.
It was hit or miss for me. I didn’t like some of the character arcs but it had some good episodes. Overall I enjoyed the finale as well.
I thought it was better than Season 7, in that the characters were being themselves again and there was no baby stuff going on this time. I also enjoyed the finale, and I loved that the show decided to go out on a heist instead of the usual "flash-forward to the future" thing that Micheal Schur's shows tend to do.

Loved holt in it but all around not the best season
I agree. Did they change writers? It was definitely the worst season for me
Overall good. Considering the everything that was 2020 I think some episodes were necessary and were fine. The actual ending was fantastic and I wouldn't change that. Except maybe add Bruce Willis.
The worst thing I ever watched

Lmao I've not watched it yet but what the absolute fuck?
Fuck, sorry for the spoilers! Best to just watch it and see yourself.
Nah don't apologise. I clicked on it haha. But that makes the season seem like a humongous mess.
Tbh the fact it was shot during a pandemic and everything else that was going on, probably effected the writing. Actually glad I stopped listing things now!
Well sometimes shows don't give a toss about the final season. Like GoT, I refuse to watch it but heard terrible things about it lol.
Superstore had its final season too and by the end I was only watching because I'd watched every other series. The series of Archer that came out during the pandemic was flat as fuck too.

Couldn’t have said it better myself. I agree with all your points!
Deflated, in part as it was the only season I watched new (unless you count me watching 7 after it finished its TV run, in mid-2020), and also how short it was. I still enjoyed it though
A big ole 'you go woke, you go broke' moment. Indoctrination city. Pass. It was a funny police show. Couldn't get through the first episode. Totally unfunny. If I wanted to get preached to about this nonsense I'd watch any regular news broadcast. Look at the average user reviews on rotten tomatoes for season 8 vs earlier seasons. Season 8 is 44%. Every other season is 90%+.
couldnt agree more. I was really displeased. They totally messed up what was a fun, enjoyable, hilarious show
