VIDEO : 'Brooklyn Nine-Nine' Had Falling Ratings For Years. So Why Cancel It Now?

Fans are mourning the loss of 'Brooklyn Nine-Nine," as FOX has canceled the comedy series after five seasons. FOX hasn?t given an official reason for the cancellation. However, it looks like a textbook case of declining live viewing ratings, coupled with Brooklyn Nine-Nine having enough episodes under its belt to be ready for syndication. By the end of season 3, it was more lucrative in the long-term for FOX to keep the show going until it hit the coveted 100-episode mark. Happily, ScreenRant reports Hulu has expressed an interest in continuing the show via its streaming platform. That's good, considering it already owns the streaming rights.
