Brooklyn Nine-Nine: 10 TV Characters Who Would Make A Great Assistant To Captain Holt

5. GOB

Gob Bluth

The Bluths might be the worst family in the history of TV. Rarely has a group of people related by blood seem to care less about each other. Or never listen to each other. Or actively try to screw each other over. It's not that the Bluths don't love their rest of the Bluths. They are family after all. It's that they don't like each other. At all.

George Oscar Bluth Jr, aka GOB, is somehow the worst of the bunch, which is saying a lot given that family. A failed magician, GOB's trademark was rolling around the city on a Segway Scooter, which he often drove on the street in traffic. GOB was amoral, selfish and outright stupid. This is a rare thing to say, but his parents were right to not believe in him.

GOB would be a terrible choice for an assistant as he wouldn't be capable of doing the work on any level. He would also wander off incredibly frequently to do his own thing. Then again, Gina didn't do any work and wandered off all the time, so it might seem pretty familiar to Holt.
