Why Brooklyn Nine-Nine Is Ending
The antics of the 99th Precinct are coming to an end after Season Eight - and here's why!
With an eighth season of fan favourite sitcom Brooklyn Nine-Nine long been confirmed to be on the way, now comes the sad news that this upcoming eighth year will actually be the show’s last.
Show co-creator Dan Goor took to Twitter to reveal the news, explaining how it was “a difficult decision, but ultimately, we felt it was the best way to honor the characters, the story and our viewers”.
Previously, Brooklyn Nine-Nine was axed by FOX after five seasons before then being swiftly picked up by NCB. This time out, it appears that Brooklyn Nine-Nine is going out on its own terms.
Season Eight of the show has found itself undergoing some major changes from what was originally intended for this next season of Brooklyn Nine-Nine. Following the death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis police officers, and then the subsequent global pandemic that delayed production, this final season of the show has been completely reworked.
The eighth and final season of Brooklyn Nine-Nine has yet to be given a premiere date, but said final year will air at some point later this year - and if the series is indeed to reach a total of 153 episodes, that means that Season Eight will consist of ten episodes.
