Chelsea Peretti and Andy Samberg, the creative minds behind Brooklyn Nine-Nine, have been making waves with their hit show. In this exclusive interview, we sat down with them to talk about their latest endeavors.

We started by discussing how the show has evolved since its renewal and move to NBC. 'It does feel like it hit a second gear after this whole renewal thing, and the move to NBC,' Peretti explained. The renewed interest from fans and critics alike has been exciting for the team, who are thrilled to be back making episodes.

One of the most anticipated episodes is the upcoming #MeToo-themed installment. 'We were all still really loving making it, and that the episodes still feel really funny and interesting and exciting to us,' Samberg said. The episode is a testament to the writers' incredible job, who have managed to tackle sensitive topics while keeping the show's signature humor.

Peretti praised her co-writers for their dedication to creating a show that tackles tough issues with care. 'I don't think we would have tried this if we hadn't done episodes in the past like 'Moo Moo' and 'Game Night,'' she said. The challenge of addressing sensitive topics while keeping the episode funny is a delicate one, but Peretti believes it's worth it.

Samberg echoed her sentiments, saying that he was 'along for the ride' when it came to tackling such a charged topic. He praised his co-star Stephanie Beatriz, who directed the episode, and Lang, who wrote it. 'It's a huge testament to the writers they're doing such an incredible job,' Peretti said.

As the show returns midseason, fans are eagerly awaiting what's next for Jake and Amy. For Samberg, there's no clear finish line in sight just yet. 'In the back of your head, do you even see a finish line?' he wondered. One thing is certain, however - Brooklyn Nine-Nine will continue to tackle tough topics with humor and heart.

Here, Chelsea Peretti and Andy Samberg share their thoughts on the latest developments in the show's evolution, from tackling sensitive topics to their creative process.
