Premise[edit]

Set in the fictional 99th Precinct of the New York City Police Department in Brooklyn, Brooklyn Nine-Nine follows a team of detectives headed by the overly serious, newly appointed Captain Raymond Holt. The detectives include Jake Peralta, who has a high rate of successful arrests and solved cases, in spite of his relaxed, carefree, and (at times) childish attitude. He eventually falls for his nerdy, by-the-book but lovable partner, Amy Santiago. The hard-working but timid Charles Boyle is partnered with the apathetic, aggressive, and scary Rosa Diaz. The pair of older detectives, Michael Hitchcock and Norm Scully, often seem incompetent, stupid, and lazy, but have solved more cases over the years simply because they have been on the job much longer.

The detectives report to Sergeant Terry Jeffords, a gentle giant and devoted family man who initially has a phobia of going back to field police work for fear of being killed in the line of duty and leaving his children fatherless. The precinct also includes sarcastic and dominating civilian administrator Gina Linetti, who dislikes her job, plans her life around social media, and focuses on dancing as a life goal.
