Reasons you could watch B99
Two canon queer POC who both came out in different ways!!!!!!!
Comedy without playing into racist or homophobic stereotypes
Healthy heterosexual relationship without ever making Jake give any signs of being sick of his wife-to-be, they’re just happy dorks in love supporting one another. They didn’t get together through an argument and they didn’t hate one another going in takes notes CW!
Those are just a few simple reasons but let’s look at some of the characters in more depth!
The captain of the 99 precinct,
Normally always stoic and has the best poker face
His husband’s name is Kevin and they are a match made in heaven
Thinks Barbara Streisand counts as Rock Music
Owns a Corgi named Cheddar
Really protective over his staff
Super competitive and stubborn
He’s Jewish and his family life wasn’t always stable
Starts off really stubborn and unwilling to follow rules but grows as a person and a team player aka some of the best character development in tv today!
Loves all of the squad and always tries to motivate people to do their best
Is supportive of his girlfriend’s goals and strengths, never belittles her or makes her feel like she has to choose between him and her work
Is Rosa even her name???? Who knows?!
Wears leather like a boss
Is really tough and sarcastic but cares deeply about the things and the people who matter to her
Always has people’s backs
Her happy place is picturing herself beating up people she hates
Insults and teases people to show affection
Self proclaimed teacher’s pet
Books and Binders are her best friends
The hardest worker you shall ever see
Super nerdy and organised
Gets excited really easily
She doesn’t always get social cues but tries her best
Establishes herself as her own person and not just “Jake’s girlfriend” or “Holt’s lackey”
Brought a blanket to a sport’s game in July
Had a crush on a coworker and after finding out she didn’t feel the same immediately backed off, moved on and became one of her closest friends.
Has “foot-in-mouth disease”
Supportive of his friends especially his best buddy Jake
Holds a grudge against a horse
Overly invested in Jake and Amy’s relationship, probably has an otp scrapbook for them
Has dozens of hobbies like yoga and sewing things that aren’t traditionally “masculine”
Terry x Yogurt are the true otp
Is a very strong, well built man who could bench press 3 grown men and is such a loving and gentle father
Isn’t afraid to call out the Captain when he’s being unfair to the squad
Carries angry squad members over his shoulder
Got a bouncy castle because Amy and Rosa were stressed
Refers to himself in the third person a lot
There’s Hitchcock and Scully who’s life goal is to eat and sit in a chair and honestly mood.
and then GINA MOTHERF*CKING LINETTI
This show tackles really problematic issues and completes stamps on them. Ever wonder where the “cool motive, still murder” meme is from?! They have tackled racial profiling, racism, homophobia, transphobia, sexism, bullying. The list goes on and on.
It has canon lgbt characters who are well developed and their sexuality isn’t the main factor of their personality. The “will they, won’t they” relationship is developed naturally and both parties did not fall for one another at the same time.
This show is so good and I would highly recommend watching it, I can assure you that you won’t regret it!
