15 Best Brooklyn Nine-Nine Episodes

15. Adrian Pimento (Season 3, Episode 17)

As the show has gone on, Brooklyn Nine-Nine has proven more than once to be about more than the core group of the precinct. Though The Vulture, Madeline Wuntch and Doug Judy are all great, though, none are quite as scene stealing and memorable as Adrian Pimento.

First appearing in season three's eponymous episode, Adrian burst onto the scene and elevated the tension and insanity of the show to new heights.

Coming off a 12-year stint of undercover work for a ruthless mobster, Adrian spends his debut working alongside Jake and trying to re-integrate himself into standard police work, whilst hilariously - and tragically - trying to battle his many demons.

Adrian Pimento is an episode that keeps you on your toes, as it's constantly up in the air whether Adrian's a bad guy or not, but also revels in its over-the-top humour and surprisingly sweet undertones.
