Nothing can keep Brooklyn Nine-Nine down. After being canceled by FOX last season, NBC stepped in and saved the series for season 6 and it looks like the new home has been a perfect fit. NBC has announced that they have renewed the fan-favorite comedy series.
Lisa Katz and Tracey Pakosta, co-presidents of scripted programming at NBC Entertainment, had this to say about the renewal:
“It’s been one of our great joys as a network to give Brooklyn Nine-Nine a second life. Cheers to [executive producers] 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.”
So far this season of Brooklyn Nine-Nine has drawn strong ratings since moving to NBC. The series averages a 1.4 rating in adults 19-49 and 3.9 million viewers overall in live+7 ratings. That’s an increase of 8% in the 18-49 demo and 34% in total viewers versus its average at this point last season on FOX. Brooklyn Nine-Nine is also a huge digital performer and one of the biggest on NBC’s schedule. The show derives 45% of its L+7plus digital rating in adults 19-49 from non-linear sources, representing the highest percentage among NBC shows.
