I love jake so much, without watching this show nobody can understand how amazing it is to have created this perfect recipe for the fuckboy protagonist, with huge ego, stupid joke, but no. They created Peralta. Who has this huge ego, and stupid joke, but who’s a feminist, learn from his mistakes, is the BEST in friendship and developp amazing platonic relation with several girls on this show.
All hail the crown of destiny. And all hail she who wears it, Amy Santiago, the Queen of the Nine-Nine.
(Kate and Clint are sitting in a bar)
Clint Barton: I gotta go.
Kate Bishop: Aren’t you forgetting something?
Clint Barton: Uh…*looks confused, then hesitantly kisses Kate’s forehead before running out.
Kate Bishop: No! Pay your bill! Damn, who raised you?
Even though [Andy’s] character says stupid stuff like
“boobs fart boobs,” he’s still a feminist, he sees his female partners
as equals, and when he doesn’t he’s willing to learn about why he’s
wrong. x
it’s great bc when you first watch brooklyn nine nine you think it’s a funny sitcom about new york cops
and instead you get some of the best racial representation in any tv show, an accurate depiction of how lgbt people and poc are treated by the police force AND how the intersectionality between the two works
the person holding arguably the most power in the show is a black man who’s openly gay but also non stereotypical
the person holding the second most power is also a black man who’s large and muscular but has a family he prioritises above all else and he’s so so gentle with his little daughters it’s amazing
it also depicts how uncomfortable and unhealthy the ‘guy has a complete infatuation for a woman who’s not interested’ dynamic is, and instead of making her realise she’s ‘wrong’ and fall for him, he instead gets over her and they actually become good friends
and the inevitable ‘will they, won’t they’ relationship develops naturally and they don’t both develop feelings for each other at the same time, and when jake realises that amy is dating another guy he’s okay with it because he knows it’s not his place to ruin that for his own feelings
