Fox’s ‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine’ to get post-Super Bowl exposure
Fox is giving its rookie sitcom “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” some super exposure.
The network not only committed to a full 22-episode season of the comedy about a police precinct full of crazy characters, it said that “Brooklyn Nine-Nine,” which stars Andy Samberg and Andre Braugher, would be part of its post-Super Bowl programming plans.
Fox will pair “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” with a special episode of “New Girl” after its coverage of the big game ends.
