That didn't take long. Good to see it will continue.

hopefully it does well and keeps going

so netflix passed?

NBC owns it and I think that they saw the interest from other outlets and picked it up. B99 is on netflix already so this will help underwrite the cost

 

[Big McLargehuge]

This doesn't surprise me in the least - only because B99 was a Universal show to begin with. There's a long and uncomfortable history of networks airing sitcoms they didn't own, but that's a practice that has effectively become extinct, with this being one of the last examples.

NBC passing on Brooklyn Nine-Nine five years ago was a very NBC decision of five years ago.

 

[Reality Check]

“Ever since we sold this show to Fox, I’ve regretted letting it get away, and it’s high time it came back to its rightful home,” NBC entertainment chairman Robert Greenblatt said in a statement

Yeah...That's BS

It's just padding syndication numbers for a shown that they already own. Hence why they were only given 13 episodes.

Similar to ABC saving a past it's prime Scrubs from NBC. Midseason filler.

Both Netflix and Hulu declined on another season. This was the best they could get.

B99 is on net flix already

B99 is on net flix already

that isnt the same thing though

 

[Jumptheshark]

that isnt the same thing though

Netflix is paying NBC for this already--so in a sense they are helping to underwrite the cost of the show

 

[Bakayoko Ono]

Good.

 

[Asheville]

GREAT news! Since B99 writers Goor and Schur were also behind NBC's The Office & Parks And Recreation, I wouldn't be surprised if "Amy Poehler" or "Michael Scott" stopped by the precinct. Maybe even Will Forte and Jason Sidekicks, both also NBC alum (from their days on SNL) who also saw their show canceled by Fox (Last Man On Earth), could also become recurring characters a la "The Office" alum Craig Robinson.

 

[Dipsy Doodle]

It always seemed like an NBC show anyway.

i feel bad looks so awful. has kellerman from prison break and jay from inbetweeners and i still wouldnt watch it if my life depended on it

new amsterdam looks interesting but wasnt there already a show with that name with jaime lannister in it

and oh cool another show where people go missing and mysteriously show back up, this time while borrowing from lost. what an amazing concept! acting looks awful too

new amsterdam looks like the only one thats even half decent as long as it isnt too cheesy

I think they are holding Blacklist and B99 back due to a few of their mew shows look like they will fails

I think its a Hulu property in the United States, whereas Netflix has its international rights. Due to this, Netflix probably had limited interest in picking it up, unless they could control the original 5 seasons streaming rights domestically.

Correct--Hulu has the Streaming Rights to B99 here in the US.
