Brooklyn Nine-Nine has been officially renewed for a seventh season by NBC for 2019-2020.
In the esteemed words of Captain Raymond Holt, ‘Vindication!’ or if you prefer your jubilance in the style of Jake Peralta ‘noice’.
The news came from NBC who saved the show in May last year after Fox cancelled it following dwindling ratings.
In a statement the co-presidents of scripted programming at NBC said:
It’s been one of our great joys as a network to give Brooklyn Nine-Nine a second life.
Cheers to Dan Goor, Mike Schur, Luke Del Tredici and David Miner, and our amazing cast and crew who each week turn New York’s finest into New York’s funniest.
Earlier this year Andy Samberg, who plays Detective Jake Peralta, cast doubt on the show’s chances of a seventh season saying there were a lot of question marks about the show’s future.
Thankfully it seems his gloomy prophecies were about as accurate as Hitchcock and Scully’s detective work if you know what I mean.
Unfortunately, NBC hasn’t confirmed the exact number of episodes we can expect in season seven but let’s be honest, even one extra episode of B99 is great news.

More of a concept than a journalist, Tom Percival was forged in the bowels of Salford University from which he emerged grasping a Masters in journalism.
Since then his rise has been described by himself as ‘meteoric’ rising to the esteemed rank of Social Editor at UNILAD as well as working at the BBC, Manchester Evening News, and ITV.
He credits his success to three core techniques, name repetition, personality mirroring, and never breaking off a handshake.
