For three seasons, the best comedy on network TV is NOT the one you’re thinking of. It’s Brooklyn Nine-Nine. The co-creators, Michael Schur and Daniel J. Goor have impressive resumes, which include The Office (British version) and Parks and Recreation, and the series won the 2014 Golden Globe for Best Comedy. What separates Nine-Nine from other ensemble comedies, is that while some actors lead and others support, the comedy burdens are distributed equally and there is no weak link. If you like your humor in your face and crazy, there’s Jake Peralta (Andy Samberg) and Terry (Terry Crews). Sarcastic and insulting, there’s Gina (Chelsea Peretti). Dry and straight laced, Captain Raymond Holt (Andre Braugher) and Rosa (Stephanie Beatriz). Now completing their third season, the show exits to one of its best episodes. Rosa’s fiance is in hiding because the mob is after him, and there’s an FBI agent working with the gangsters. Captain Holt’s long time friend Bob Anderson (Dennis Haysbert) was outed as that agent.
