      Agreed, I really hope Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Last Man on Earth get picked up by Netflix!

      Season 5 has some big moments, and now I'm sad they won't have a chance to really expand on them. Unless Netflix flexes those chops, of course.

    NBC picked up b99 for a sixth season! Show saved! Thanks, Lin Manuel Miranda.

    Question for the fans here: I tried watching the first few episodes and couldn't get into it, but so many people I know love it and constantly rave about it. Is it sort of like a Parks&Rec deal where the first few episodes are not great but are worth pushing through to get to the good stuff, or am I just missing out on the humor?

      It's made by the same creators as parks&rec, so I guess it might make sense to have the same "hard to get into" flaw.. and I don't think the first few episodes are great, but episode 5, "the vulture" is awesome, so if you're not into it by then it might just not be for you!

      It's not quite the same as P&R where the first season misses the mark - of course it takes some time to get the dynamics and characters down, but the writing is pretty consistent (I'd say consistently good, you might disagree).

      To be frank most of the episodes don't have too much of an overarching narrative so I'd recommend pick one with good ratings from season 1 or 2 and give that a try.
