:up:

I've been watching behind the scenes and blooper reels on YouTube to get my B99 fix this past week.

Summer burn off.

“Digital phallus portrait.”

Wonder if he signed it

Sincerely,

Pretty much, yeah. Likely deals NBC signed to air episodes by X date.

Re: Brooklyn Nine-Nine (NBC) - The Eighth and Final Season - premieres 8/12/21
 

Well, NBC never fully committed to the show in the first place, never having ordered a full season. They treat it more like a "be glad we saved you from Fox's cancellation at all"

Re: Brooklyn Nine-Nine (NBC) - The Eighth and Final Season - premieres 8/12/21
 

At this point, mostly just glad to get anything new ... a full season would be better for sure .. but I'll take what I can get

Re: Brooklyn Nine-Nine (NBC) - The Eighth and Final Season - premieres 8/12/21
 

The massive syndication deal forced NBC to save it.

Re: Brooklyn Nine-Nine (NBC) - The Eighth and Final Season - premieres 8/12/21
 

Then they need to put it on with two episodes per week. Or hell, all at once one Hulu or Peacock.

Re: Brooklyn Nine-Nine (NBC) - The Eighth and Final Season - premieres 8/12/21
 

They are. 10 episodes over 5 Thursdays ending Sept. 16.

Re: Brooklyn Nine-Nine (NBC) - The Eighth and Final Season - premieres 8/12/21
 

Well, NBC canned the L&O spinoff, so they could have burned it off Thursday at 8 for 5 weeks but it looks like The Blacklist will slot in instead.

Just shows how little NBC cares about the show itself - its just making them money in Syndication (IIRC, sold for $500k an episode) and Hulu

Re: Brooklyn Nine-Nine (NBC) - The Eighth and Final Season - premieres 8/12/21
 

that looks awesome. Didn’t even know it was coming back. Such a rewatchable show. I’ve seen it 3x myself. Can’t wait.

Re: Brooklyn Nine-Nine (NBC) - The Eighth and Final Season - premieres 8/12/21
 

Yeah, that's what they doing. Gotta get it out of the way before the fall season starts.

Re: Brooklyn Nine-Nine (NBC) - The Eighth and Final Season - premieres 8/12/21
 

Whatever they put out will be gold. The entire series is gold.

Re: Brooklyn Nine-Nine (NBC) - The Eighth and Final Season - premieres 8/12/21
 

I missed that, I'm personally good with this.

Re: Brooklyn Nine-Nine (NBC) - The Eighth and Final Season - premieres 8/12/21
 

This better not turn into another "woke" mess. Oh but it will...

Re: Brooklyn Nine-Nine (NBC) - The Eighth and Final Season - premieres 8/12/21
 

Nothing in the trailer suggests that.

Though I suppose "woke" has come to replace "hipster" in the last few years. "Everything I don't like is woke", woo buzzwords.

Re: Brooklyn Nine-Nine (NBC) - The Eighth and Final Season - premieres 8/12/21
 

B99 has always been somewhat approaching the idea of "woke". A gay black Captain, another black man as the sergeant, Rosa is bi, Jake admits when he says problematic things and works to get better. They've referenced problems with policing and racism in past eps (like when Terry got picked up for being out after dark looking for his kid's toy?).

It's funny, I've been feeling like I didn't want to watch this show anymore because it's just more copaganda, but the fact that they're aware of the problems with modern policing gives me some hope. And ya'll think it's too woke?

Re: Brooklyn Nine-Nine (NBC) - The Eighth and Final Season - premieres 8/12/21
 

I've never gotten a "woke" vibe from B99. It's a funny show filled with funny characters and has been consistent from the beginning. It's not like they suddenly made Captain Holt gay. He's been gay for 8 seasons. I guess the only one that "changed" from the beginning is Rosa but that was still years ago and not new at this point.

Did somebody open the Overton Window in here?

Re: Brooklyn Nine-Nine (NBC) - The Eighth and Final Season - premieres 8/12/21
 

Sepinwall's review certainly makes it sound like they probably should have just let it go. For background, he was always a very big fan of the show.

It doesn't sound as bad as the last season of Scrubs, maybe I'll watch it sometime later.
