March 10, 20205 yr 1 hour ago, Lurch said: I stumbled upon this thread a few weeks ago and had never watched a single episode. Based on your recs I just binged season 1 and laughed my ass off the whole time. And it gets BETTER? i think it's fallen off the past couple seasons (this season and last i guess). but it's solid for 4-5 seasons for sure.

It's still the funniest regular Network sitcom on, but the competition is pretty lacking. I have kind of noticed it's dipped a bit the past two seasons though.
August 21, 20214 yr You mean season 8... Only the first episode had that much social commentary. I don't think the cast was going to return to the show if they weren't going to address that stuff. We are still watching but it has certainly lost a spark. Not because of the social stuff, but not having Hitchcock around with Scully is weird. Boyle's hair is weird. Holt and Kevin having problems doesn't fit at all with their prior 7 seasons of backstory. And sitcoms have been doing the "new parents struggling with the baby" story line forever. Even the cold opens have been pretty weak.
August 21, 20214 yr Author The first four episodes have been kind of weak, but they were redeemed with "Dear Kevin, please find attached a picture of my penis. Sincerely, Captain Raymond Holt."
August 21, 20214 yr yeah my bad, meant to say that the first four episodes of the final season are out. and i agree with pretty much everything that was said above- especially about Boyle's hair.

September 6, 20214 yr The Boyle farm episode finally seemed like a proper Brooklyn 99 episode. That was pretty good.
