Fans on Twitter, who had been in mourning over the show’s apparent demise, also celebrated the turnaround:

Overjoyed to learn that #BrooklynNineNine has been saved by NBC. Apparently, Internet outrage can actually make a difference. pic.twitter.com/At5fJ9vo2z

I like thinking that Amy Santiago walked into NBC with a binder full of reasons they should pickup #BrooklynNineNine and convinced them immediately.

the cancellation and renewal of b99 was so dramatic and intense like i just went though every single emotional possible in like 36 hours and the underdog ended up winning when all was lost... i want to watch it as a film
