Brooklyn Nine-Nine: Every Season Ranked Worst To Best (So Far)

7. Season Seven

Brooklyn Nine-Nine's most recent season was a slight drop in quality compared to other seasons, despite sporting some of the show's most rewarding emotional payoffs and character set-ups to date.

The reason for this is simple, since season seven features only 13 episodes, compared to the previous season's 18, 22 or 23 episode count. Unfortunately, this reduced episode count means less time spent with some of the season's more intriguing developments, such as Holt's time as a beat cop and Debbie's turn to crime, both of which are rushed and almost alienating in parts.

This is still Brooklyn Nine-Nine, mind, so there's plenty left to love, including the brilliant finale - Lights Out - which sees the birth of Jake and Amy's son, McClane "Mac" Peralta, and the inspired J.K Simmons-led bottle episode Dillman, which sees Jake trying to prove his skills to Holt once more.

The witticisms are all there and the relationships are as exciting as ever, and if it wasn't for the bizarre Debbie subplot and the surprisingly lacking Halloween Heist episode, Valloweaster, season seven would probably rank as an all-timer.
