The cast of Brooklyn Nine-Nine turned to social media to reflect on NBC’s final season announcement.
The network revealed on Thursday that Andy Samberg’s comedy will end its death-defying season after season 8, which has been postponed to the 2021-22 TV season. The farewell season will consist of just 10 episodes, which will mark the shortest season in the series to date.
At the time, executive producer Dan Goor issued a statement of his own, which said in part: “I am very grateful to NBC and Universal Television for allowing us to give these characters and our fans the end they deserve … The end of show a difficult decision, but, ultimately, we felt it was the best way to honor the characters, the story and our viewers. I know that some people will be disappointed that this is going to end so soon, but honestly, I’m grateful that it lasted so long. Title of my sex tape. “
In response to Goor’s statement, Dirk Blocker (Hitchcock) wrote, “I love this man, I love this group and I love being able to be part of this.” On a tweet later celebrating some of Hitchcock and Scully’s best moments, the actor added: “What a joy this race was. Best partner, best set, best writers, best team members, best fans! “
Melissa Fumero, who played Amy Santiago type A since the show’s debut, wrote that portraying your character “has been one of the greatest joys and honors of my life … I am very grateful to be able to take a victory lap with our beloved cast and crew. For our incredible fans, we love you. No tears for now, we still have an entire season to shoot! “
And Terry Crews, also known as Lieutenant Terry Jeffords, also shared his gratitude for running the program in a tweet: “I’m sad that this is over, but happy to have had the chance to be part of something so special.”
NBC had previously confirmed that the colleague’s sitcom at work Superstore would end after six seasons. The end of the one-hour series will air Thursday, March 25.
