The characters start out fairly rough and jagged with their own individual struggles but grow as a squad after the introduction of Capt. Holt. This is a feature, not a bug! The point of the show is that they're flawed!

Brooklyn Nine-Nine will definitely be one of your favorite ever sitcom. It's a show of pure comedy with humorous stories that are naturally delivered by the lovely actors and actresses, but also with a consistent storyline which a lot of sitcoms lack. The other thing you’ll noticed which makes this show better is the exclusion of laugh tracks. Although, laugh tracks do, to a certain extent, seem to make shows more hilarious and to a point where even if you don't understand a joke, you'd laugh. But no, this show has no cheats like that and amuses viewers with original content.

 The show also does not rely on one-liners or simple jokes, and instead, make use of the characters' personalities and actions to entertain viewers, which is pretty smart. Some might think that entertainment with personalities do not last as they stay the same and eventually people would get tired of them. However, with the ongoing characters development, their personalities and stories are often changing, which makes the show so fresh all the time.

This new age police procedural comedy with an excellent cast and spectacular production is sure to make you happy. But that isn't what makes the show great, rather it’s something very trivial. The show, being a comedy, peculiarly enough, doesn’t use any laugh track or a live audience to record laughs. In fact, they just provide us with a sketch where the viewer can decide whether it was funny enough for him to enjoy (laugh) or not.The show should be credited for its humorous subplots within an episode. The cast also portray their characters in an outstandingly witty fashion. The writer's vision of a comic police station is right on the money.

The show is a rare gem among serial comedy duds. It's such a smart and fast-paced show that never fails to make people laugh, smile, and sometimes cry at very touching and human moments. This is a comfort show for everyone. You’ll see the character development as they grow as people in ways that don't feel forced or contrived.
