Moderators Astro Hollywood Posted May 10, 2018 Moderators Share Posted May 10, 2018 Fox just cancelled Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Last Man on Earth. On the plus side, they're thinking about picking up that cancelled ABC shitcom where Tim Allen grunts at libs, so we definitely live in Hell.

Paid Members Arch Stanton Posted May 10, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted May 10, 2018 Brooklyn Nine-Nine getting canned is a travesty. Genuinely brilliant show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members DEF Posted May 10, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted May 10, 2018 NO! Not the Nine-Nine. Legit one of my favourite sitcoms ever. This is a travesty. There are few sitcoms ever that have given me stomach hurting laughs like Captain Holt's delivery of 'Velvet thunder'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members I Bent My Wookie Posted May 10, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted May 10, 2018 Netflix surely has to pick this up? It worked bloody hard to get rights to every other season of it, working with Samberg and the Lonely Island on some original content would be great and it's obviously got the fan base needed. If resubscribe for a full season of it on there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members SpursRiot2012 Posted May 10, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted May 10, 2018 Why have they cancelled it? I had thought it was a popular show. I like it a lot. Netflix should for sure pick it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awards Moderator HarmonicGenerator Posted May 11, 2018 Awards Moderator Share Posted May 11, 2018 No! Not the Nine-Nine. Really sad to hear that, it’s pretty much the only sitcom we watch these days. So many good characters, and that great Parks & Rec feeling that the characters actually like each other. Uncancel it please! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Astro Hollywood Posted May 11, 2018 Moderators Share Posted May 11, 2018 In way better news, Cobra Kai has been renewed for a second season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Dead Mike Posted May 11, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted May 11, 2018 Finished watching Cobra Kai last night. Absolutely loved it! William Zabka is fantastic & it was far funnier than I was expecting. Has @John Matrix watched it yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro Red Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Regarding Brooklyn Nine-Nine, apparently TBS, CBS, Hulu and Netflix have expressed interest in picking it up, so fingers crossed in that respect. FOX never really did right by the show, it was shunted around the timeslots and had god awful breaks over winter none of which helped the ratings. We watched the first 3 episodes of Cobra Kai last weekend and plan to get a good chunk more done tonight. Between that, the new Monkey reboot on Netflix and the new Duck Tales on Disney my childhood has been having a great time recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Scott Malbranque Posted May 11, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted May 11, 2018 Cobra Kai was fucking remarkable. It had no business, yet it had every business, being as good as it was. Amazing stuff. Was near tears with giddiness at points. Has anyone watch The Looming Tower yet? Very curious about it, but don't want to sit through 10 episodes of Homeland-lite, when I've just sat through Season 7 of what turned out to be Homeland-lite.

Paid Members PunkStep Posted May 11, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted May 11, 2018 (edited) Yeah there's no way Brooklyn 99 won't get picked up, as others have mentioned Netflix seems logical. Like they did with Arrested Development, didn't they? It's way too popular (and good- probably the only comedy both me and my wife will watch together) to not be given a lifeline. @Scott MalbranqueSomebody recommended the Looming Tower to me and I can't for the life of me remember who, but they raved about it. It might've been my older sister, her tastes are pretty good with this sort of thing. Then again, it might be somebody from work, and they're all cunts that watch fucking bollocks shows. I realise that isn't particularly helpful to you either way. Edited May 11, 2018 by PunkStep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Scott Malbranque Posted May 11, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted May 11, 2018 It's a better starting point than what I had, Brewster. I'll give the first episode a watch and see what's what. I just really don't want another Ozark situation, where I was confused and hurt that I invested so much time into what was essentially a shit Martin McDonagh film, with lakes and trees.

Apparently Hulu has a first right of refusal on it before Netflix get a shot, it so I read online. It makes little difference here, other than that we may have a delay in getting it from when it airs in the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wordsfromlee Posted May 11, 2018 Share Posted May 11, 2018 Fox also cancelled The Mick too which is criminally under rated. It's basically an It's Always Sunny spin off with Dee having to look after her super-rich sisters spoilt brat kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
