‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine’ 5×20 Review: “Show Me Going”

If the last couple Brooklyn Nine-Nine episodes have taught us anything, it’s that this show does comedy remarkably well. We already knew this. We’ve known for years. But the brilliant thing about this ensemble comedy is it’s admirable capacity to…

‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine’ 5×19 Review: Elite Party Squads

Few shows manage to sustain a hilariously consistent tone throughout their entire run. Even fewer manage to run for five years without having ups and downs in their writing. Brooklyn Nine-Nine isn’t one of those shows. There’s an amazing quality…

‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine’ 5×18 Review: Women CAN Support Women

‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine’ 5×13 Review: Scorpion’s Gonna Scorp

This week’s Brooklyn Nine-Nine had a lot to tackle. Probably one of the show’s fastest-paced episodes ever, it surprised us with a beloved foe returning and a weirdly delicious friendship intriguing us. Plus, it featured the return of the Official Rosa…

‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine’ 5×12 Review: Let’s Talk About Kevin

Brooklyn Nine-Nine returned last night with its twelfth episode after three long, agonizing months of hiatus. Arguably not the best set-up for any show to return to air. In those months, fans had time to speculate, guess, and hypothesize as…

DCTV Crossovers I Want to See (That Will Never Happen)

The annual DCTV crossover may be met with mixed reactions in fandom, but that doesn’t stop me from thinking about ones I would love to see. Some crossovers I would particularly love to see will never happen due to differing…
