I am liking (or desperately trying to like) Brooklyn 99. Andre Braugher is the best thing about the show. But it still needs to be funnier.

What a role for Terry Crews. Fun to see other SNL peeps make cameos too. But there's a lotta eps, 6 seasons with 20+ eps per season. But they're short, less than a half hour each, and episodic in that way so they don't really need to be watched in order.

I could relate to that show because it's about magazine publishing. If Hitchcock and Sully were millennials, they might remind me of some of my coworkers. I probably remind them of Gina. It's a very entertaining show though. You had mentioned it earlier on one of this TV season threads Greg. Took me a while but I finally got around to it. There was a set mock up at SDCC, and we thought about checking it out, but it was outside of the venue, in the gaslight district and the line was absurd.

Our discussion of B99 goes back to 2013. Mostly it's Greg's obsession for Capt Holt. I cut&pasted all the previous mentions that bore repeating above. I watch a few eps when I'm caretaking for my mom. It's very distracting from her routine news>kelly ripa>let'smakeadeal>murdershewrote>emergency>ellen>news>maskedsinger.
I just start s4 & finished e5. It's a great ensemble cast. I didn't care for Samberg when he was on SNL - I thought he was too cheesy - that was until laser cats which was so ridiculously cheesy that it worked for me. He kills it on B99, as does the rest of the cast. Luv the show. It's like comfort food for me now. I was chatting with Tara on the phone last night. Looks like we'll be getting pro passes for SDCC again (assuming covid-19 doesn't cancel that too) and we promised each other that if there's another B99 pop up, we'll wait out that line this year.
