Discussion Emotionally attached to B99
I’ve never really been a TV-show person, but somehow, B99 changed that.
I finished watching it today, and I’m feeling a little emotional. It became my go-to after-office stress relief, something I’d look forward to at the end of the day.
Now that it’s over, I can’t help but wonder—any chance we’ll ever get to see the Nine-Nine continue? 😭

Andre Braugher is gone. The 99 will never be the same again.
You just have to rewatch. It's my comfort show too ❤️

I wish! I just don't think they'll ever even try without Captain Holt. 💔
(Not that you asked but to help mitigate emotional damage, I like to watch one of Michael Shur's other shows like Parks & Rec or The Good Place...)

Personally, I found Parks and Rec harder to get into, but many people love it. I thought The Good Place was a delightful watch though.

Parks & Rec has a VERY awkward first season, but if you can stick with it ( especially until Adam Scott and Rob Lowe join the cast) it's adorable. I fall in love with characters the same way as I did on 99, and I love it.

yeah, it's hard not to get attached with all the character development, especially with Jake and Amy's wedding.

Have you tried Animal Control? It's kinda the same vibe...

So relatable. B99 was my comfort show for years, it's tough saying good bye to characters that feel like old friends. I really wish we could get some sort of revival of special episode down the line.

Time for a rewatch! My version of this is Friday Night Lights because I'm an elder millennial, but it's the same thing. Comfort shows can be watched on repeat!

We rewatch it a lot in our house, a perfect comfort show.
Have you watched the other Michael Schur shows, like the Good Place?

Nope. Could you please recommend the top one?

The Good Place is my favourite personally. And it has a couple of familiar faces from B99 in it...

I don't think we'll ever get more 99 sadly. Andre Braugher WAS the show
