Now that The Good Place has officially ended, Brooklyn Nine-Nine is the one and only Mike Schur-created TV show on the air. After seven seasons, the show’s formula will be familiar to viewers: A new season-long villain will likely appear later in the season, ending in a cliffhanger that changes the status quo for a few episodes next season before repeating the process.
