9 Reasons To Watch Brooklyn Nine-Nine
HuffingtonPost

Brooklyn Nine-Nine follows the exploits of the hilarious Detective Jake Peralta (Andy Samberg), his lovable colleagues and their more-serious-than-a-hunk-of-actual-granite boss, Captain Holt (Andre Braugher), as they police the NYPD’s 99th precinct. If this summary of the Fox original hasn't convinced you yet, here are nine reasons you should be watching Brooklyn Nine-Nine.

1. It is a great and diverse group

Are they they best police force on TV? An argument could definitely be made for that.

2. Gina's One Liners

"Let's give the people what they want."

3. Jake and Boyle's Bromance

Boyle is Jake's biggest fan and, even though he doesn't always want to admit it, Jake would do anything for Charles Boyle.

4. The women kick butt

Not just Rosa, but Amy and Gina and Sharon Jeffords. Pretty much any women who comes onto screen is just as likely to kick butt as any male who the gang encounters, which is exactly how it should be.

5. A black gay man in power?

Oh, yeah, we've definitely got that. You better believe Captain Raymond Holt is not here for your crap.

6. Halloween Episodes

The heists are to live for and to die for.

7. Amy and Jake

Most TV shows revolve around sexual tension like it's nobody's business. But, when it's Amy and Jake you're watching dance around their feelings for each other it's totally worth it to wait until the next episode.

8. Jake's responsibility

It'll make you feel better about how you're feeling about your life, probably. Unless you're at Jake's level, in which case I'm so sorry and you should find yourself an Amy.

9. The best guest star to ever appear on TV

Cheddar is a constant treat in the show, a peek at the gang's life outside the office and also the cutest dog in the world.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
