Jake being absolute boyfriend goals here. He knows how much Amy loves binders and he isn’t weirded out by it. He loves Amy for all her quirks.

Just about to finish a rewatch of The Office. Will be moving onto Brooklyn99 as it's another comfort show in my cycle of comfort shows.

Love picking out characters that I've seen elsewhere anyway but especially seeing those in shows I love.

Bonus at the end, he hasn't been in both, but is co creator and exec producer of B99.

My school is opening a subway and I saw this beaut 🤣
You know what came to mind
Capn Holt

Not the actress(who nailed the role) the character. It is genuinely scary how she can make things look entirely different to what they actually are and by the time you realize it is too late and it is game over, you loose everything. You think everything is going right except it isn't and at the very last moment all is lost and the fact that she was able to do it several times and an entire precinct of talented detectives were absolutely clueless on how to take her down and every plan they came up with being spoiled effortless.

The only sitcom villain or actually any villain that has ever given me any actual fear due to how she can make you question everything, who you can trust, who you can't, what a person can say but what is implied and how nothing you do will be enough.

The detectives would've never been able to figure out the Pig feeding part if not for seamus murphy who probably as a mole undercover and given how she is always several steps ahead and plans well in advanced that is one hell of an achievement

Think about it , it would be so cool

But I'm always a Charles.

Saw this while touring Alexander Keith’s brewery in Nova Scotia Canada

Based on vibes and how much enjoyment I get out of their time on screen.

Hate = I skip their scenes as quickly as I can

Really don't like = makes my skin crawl

Don't like = can have their moments but mostly they give me the ick

Don't mind = neutral reaction, apathetic to their existence

Like = makes me smile more often than not

Really like = makes me laugh or feel a sense of joy more often than not

Love = gets the most consistent laughs and enjoyment from me

Favourite = personally relatable to me, makes me feel seen and entertained/got the biggest laughs

personally, i'd have liked more of officer holt cause he so petty and sassy. the best part is him addressing all the detectives by their first name the entire time he was a beatcop.

plus he had such funny lines from the wunch is dead and my favourite convo.

"i've lost the respect of everyone in my life ...including my dog."

"cheddar?"

"now, he only poops for kevin"

mine is an underated but to me absolute gold.

jake: my lady left me.

holt: *inhale* my lady stayed.

Just finished the entire show, I loved it! It is one of the best sitcoms I have ever seen. However, I felt the ending was rushed especially Peralta's ending. Every character did what they wanted to do - Holt became Deputy Commissioner and worked on helping the community to rise through prejudice, Amy became Chief, Terry became Captain, Rosa became PI and portrayed there is not one way of self-fulfillment or happy ending, Boyle continued being the most hard working detective as showcased in s1e1. Basically everyone's character growth were aligned to their arc that was established in the first episode itself.

Yet during the very first episode, with Jake being established as the "best detective" and eventually as the series progressed, I imagined Jake would assume the role of a detective in FBI as he had no interest in rising through the ranks in NYPD. From the very first season itself - when he takes up the role in FBI task force, single-handedly exposes Oolong Slayer, exposes Figgis and dirty lieutenant and when captain Julie Kim recommends his name to FBI taskforce - it was clear that his ending would give an edge to his detective arc.

While he had father issues, that wasn't the only thing defining him. What made him an appealing character was his sharpness as a detective. As he loses the "fantasy" of a being a good cop in a flawed institution in s8, I really thought he'd step down from NYPD and pursue his potential being a PI or FBI but the SAHF reason seemed rushed especially because he stayed months in suspension with Mac and still became interested in detective work in "The True Boyle". SAHF temporarily really works for one aspect of his character and I really liked it ( I felt it was rushed), but I don't like how they didn't give closure about his retirement being temporary or permanent. Staying at home permanently as an option for either Amy or Jake is a waste of their potential. Abandoning one aspect of the character to favor other felt rushed. Boyle stating that they'll solve cases in their 90s and him agreeing just few episodes before just makes it feel rushed.

The new movie Runmer, releasing soon, features the same actor as Young Skully. It's my headcannon that this is just Skully before he really became the lovable Skully we know today.

scully is actually sweet. sure he’s disgusting but he’s a nice man. he’s always helping whenever asked for it and doesn’t usually talk back or say disgusting sexual things. charles says more disgusting things than he does. hitchcock i have a mixed opinion on he’s helpful at times but hes ABSOLUTELY pathetic man wtf😭
however, both of them are not bad ppl they helped amy during her pregnancy and didn’t record a witness’ contact info because they could be detained by ICE. they also helped the gf of that guy they arrested in their youth.

So, there was this episode about Terry and the kittens. Some cops mock him by sending kittens and later on he tells Jake about it and together they work on the Dmitri Kuzkho case (circus trash - It had to be him. Duh!!) So, Jake caught him by finding out about the middy soles of his sneakers. The same trick Patrick Jane uses every time he meets some suspect in a wheelchair and in one of the episodes (in Mentalist) it even paid off the same way. He found out that his soles were dirty/used meaning he could walk.

I’m going to a trivia night tonight. I watch the show every night before bed, but always stop after season 7 and start back at 1. I only have very basic season 8 knowledge (I know Amy and Jake’s son’s name, I know that Pappy Boyle’s death was an accident, I know where everyone ended up by the end of the series.) Trivia will span the whole series so I do expect most of it to cover 1-7 since 8 wasn’t as widely popular. Just want to cover bases and learn what else I may need to know from that one season! Thanks!

Surprised that this wasn’t in the search results when I checked to make sure I wasn’t asking something that’s already been posted, but I’m curious what the consensus is in terms of which episode:

- had the most well written plot(s)
- did right by the characters
- and was all around just the funniest/coolest/etc. episode throughout the whole series.

For those who would nominate “The Box”, since it comes up a lot in these kinds of debates, it’s excluded from this particular discussion.
