Funniest Scenes to Rewatch from Brooklyn Nine-Nine

Are you ready to dive into the comedic goldmine known as Brooklyn Nine-Nine? From Captain Holt's deadpan delivery to Boyle's endearing quirks, we explore these Brooklyn Nine-Nine funny scenes that keep us in stitches. Join the laughter as we reminisce moments so memorable, we’d get locked up just to watch them again. 

1. “Pilot” (Season 1 Episode 1)  

Jake Peralta (Andy Samberg), a talented but carefree detective, and his colleagues meet their new captain Ray Holt, a tightly wound man determined to improve the dysfunctional 99th precinct. The introduction of Captain Holt (Andre Braugher) is a laugh-out-loud moment. He is a walking embodiment of seriousness and deadpan humor. The stark contrast between his no-nonsense demeanor and the detectives' quirky personalities sets the stage for endless comedic clashes and hilarious misunderstandings throughout the series’ run. 

2. “HOT DAMN!” (Season 2 Episode 6)

When Captain Holt nails the reason why buttoned-up Amy Santiago (Melissa Fumero) is late to work for the first time, it's like a bolt of pure comic lightening. His deadpan "hot damn!" catches everyone off-guard, turning a routine moment into a glorious surprise. It's classic Holt: unexpected, hilarious and totally "hot damn"-worthy. 

3. “Yippie Kayak” (Season 3 Episode 10)  

Picture this: there’s a robbery going down at the local supermart, and Jake decides to channel his inner action hero, John McClane, from the epic movie Die Hard. His best bud Boyle (Joe Lo Truglio) tries to keep up but only adds to the chaos. And then there’s Gina (Chelsea Peretti), just being Gina amidst the madness. It's like watching their own zany blockbuster. 

4. “The Overmining” (Season 4 Episode 9)  

Boyle's obsession with Dianne Wiest takes center stage, and boy, does he commit! His relentless stream of jokes, delivered with such earnestness and enthusiasm, has us rolling on the floor with laughter. It's like watching a comedy trainwreck in the best possible way. 

5. “HalloVeen” (Season 5 Episode 4)  

Captain Holt is usually by the book, but when he sneaks into Jake and Amy's bedroom to kick off the show’s signature heist at Halloween, it’s a riot. Watching the usually composed Holt exclaim that Jake’s pre-made breakfast is “in my belly” made our eyes tear and our mouths water. 

6. “Honeymoon” (Season 6 Episode 1)  

Brooklyn Nine-Nine is a master at taking puns to the next level, and this one reached comedy heights with Amy’s comment about "this B needs a C in her A.” It seems like an unexpected burst of sass that hubby Jake rightfully misreads. The sheer absurdity and perfect timing of the line leaves you marveling at how brilliantly Melissa Fumero can drop a one-liner. 

 7. "Lights Out" (Season 7 Episode 13)  

Captain Holt has got a brand-new dance partner, and it’s none other than Captain Terry Jeffords (Terry Crews). To help Amy deal with pregnancy contractions, the duo busts into a not-so-coordinated dance routine. Seeing Holt break out of his usual serious shell and Crews bring his signature energy to the party creates a hilarious clash of styles — well, we dare you not to laugh.  

8. "Balancing" (Season 8 Episode 4)   

Captain Jeffords and team are investigating a crime scene when Peralta declares it’s a perp he’s been chasing for years, his “white whale.” Jeffords can’t relate, and when Jake chastises him for not having an arch nemesis, Jeffords calmly responds, “Because I solve all my crimes.” It’s the staring contest before Peralta reacts that makes it one of Brooklyn Nine-Nine's best scenes.
