In case you missed it, yesterday FOX axed fan-favorite Brooklyn Nine Nine after five seasons. And the internet (rightfully) exploded. If you’re not familiar with the show, B99 follows the fictional 99 police precinct in New York City. The group of officers is super diverse, with a variety of races, ethnic backgrounds, and sexual orientations all POSITIVELY represented. If you haven’t watched, this show is seriously a gem. It’s even a favorite among fellow Rioters. Because of its diverse cast, the show caught the eye of many authors, who also expressed their outrage yesterday:
