A little late, but I'm rewatching before the second season starts, and I laughed about this exchange:
"…and this guy!"
"What's his name?"
"I don't know, I just call him 'this guy'. I've known him since kindergarden."

I don't watch Brooklyn Nine-Nine and if I had not known that this was a crossover episode, I don't think I would have realised it.
The episode was pretty good, though, Braugher was fantastic and I liked Jess's plot. It would have been a waste if they all went to New York and Coach didn't show up.

There are four. I think, Nick first shared a room with Jess for a while and then with Schmidt while Coach lived there. Also, Schmidt briefly moved across the hall. (Edited: I saw Sara's comment and counted again).

Yeah and there was no joke about Clinton. Last season, there was a Canadian Trump who built a wall, ruined the country and was fucked to death by Garrison. Doesn't seem like they like him very much.

I don't think it's possible to satirise politics in an apolitical way.

I agree, I'd be surprised if they just leave it at both sides are shitty. Randy complained that everything's getting a reboot now and right after that came giant douche and turd sandwich. Might not be a coincidence.

That's all true, but it doesn't make Murphy a watchable protagonist (or main character or whatever he is). And as a narrator, he sounds as if he has Colombia all figured out. The commentary is from the future, I guess, but it still doesn't feel right (at least to me).

I really liked his way of characterization and some of the descriptions, but I didn't see a (valid) greater point or message. And the end seemed pretty strange to me, but since you haven't read this far yet, I won't say anything about it.
I liked his brother's "Der Untertan" (I think, the translation of the title

How do you like it? I honestly never understood that Mann won the Nobel prize for that. Not that it's not good, but to me, it isn't a timeless masterpiece.

Yeah, for example Julia Loius-Dreyfus is fantastic, but four wins in a row is too much. But as space robot pointed out, it's hard to find a proper solution.

I'm not from the U.S. and while I heard about Garner, I didn't make that connection until I read about it here. I hope they didn't mean it as a statement on that case, because then you would be right, it would be horrible.

I was wondering if it would have made a difference if Alex had told Lolly that it was just a hologram or something? Of course it was Healy's statement that was decisive, but still…
She was sweet to thank her again, though.

"Another manipulation: they hit you repeatedly in the face." Funny, but sad on the other hand, because whatever these techniques were, that McCullough and Humphrey proposed for questioning, they probably wouldn't have been so different.

Luschek said it when they were looking for phones and she took the Ingall's cigarette. She seems okay, especially compared to all these other assholes, but the solidarity between the guards might take even the better ones down like when in this episode McCullough and that other guy knew that Humphrey did something to

Suzanne giving Lolly (also rarely appearing in the last episodes) advice
on the time machine was great, and of course there was "The emotions
were fictional, but the science was real." But these scenes felt like
short comical reliefs in a season that's getting darker and more tense
every episode, which is not a bad

About Boo-Pennsatucky: I agree, Boo seems a bit harsh here, especially if you consider that Pennsatucky's potential alternative friends are the Nazis.

On a lighter note: I loved Taystee goofing around in the background during Caputo's talk with Cindy and Judy King and then trying to hide behind a magazine when Caputo, very irritated, looked at her. Also, as Myles noted, Judy's bafflement when she realized that Cindy was Jewish was pretty funny.

That idea not to kill Hitler and instead to help him and bring out his artistic side reminded me of a book by Éric-Emmanuel Schmitt I read, in which Hitler gets accepted at the academy of art in Vienna and his life proceeds totally different.

Not that it's in any way a defence for his behaviour in there, but that guard had an excuse to be there (to protect Judy King). It says a lot about the guards when besides from that one woman (I don't know her name), Bayley, Luschek, or even Coates seem to be the most decent ones.

I watched it again, and she explicitly says "You're my therapist", and he corrects her: "Social worker." So thank you for the clarification, I missunderstood that scene or didn't get the dialog.
