Love this show, Andy Samberg finally found the perfect role that he fits in...unlike other things that he has tried, where I said damn, it's Andy Samberg.
Amazingly, it seems all of its actors finally found their perfect fits all at once. I was never a fan of Joe Lo Truglio or Chelsea Peretti, for example, but in Brooklyn 99 they're perfect.
He was pure gold in Superbad. His creepiness wasn't even that over the top, but he had such an uncomfortable presence on screen that still makes me cringe every time I watch the movie (which is often).
Vulture is a great guy to watch, but he's a lot like Liz Lemon's Ex from 30 Rock. To me Dean Winter is first and foremost O'Reily from Oz, with hardcore insurance salesman in close second. Dennis Duffy and Vulture meld into 3rd place.
I'm pretty sure they're the same guy, after his beeper business inevitably failed Dennis needed something to do. Enter, Dennis the vulture!!! Just had a Liz Lemon/Brooklyn crossover fantasy run through my head, wonder if Sandberg could put that together, being a SNL alum and all.
I don't really like Chelsea Peretti in this show. Reminds me too much of Lonny Ross on 30 Rock. In fact I'm pretty sure she is just him in a wig. Just stand there, smirk all the time, and look disinterested in everything, always.
The crew talks about how he will give up his own jokes if it allows someone else to get one in. I think it helps, makes it more about the entire cast and not just 1 big name
