Brooklyn Nine-Nine Quiz – Jake, Holt and Precinct Jokes

Brooklyn Nine-Nine, created by Dan Goor and Michael Schur, aired from 2013 to 2021. Andy Samberg plays Jake Peralta, a talented but childish detective at Brooklyn's 99th precinct, who loves Die Hard.

Andre Braugher plays the stoic Captain Raymond Holt, owner of a corgi named Cheddar. The squad includes rule-loving Amy Santiago, tough Rosa Diaz, food-loving Charles Boyle, yogurt fan Terry Jeffords and the sharp-tongued Gina Linetti. Each year they compete in the Halloween Heist.

When Fox canceled the show in 2018, fans and celebrities campaigned online, and NBC picked it up within about a day, airing three more seasons.
