Brooklyn Nine-Nine: He Said, She Said (2019)
Season 6, Episode 8
7/10
Could've handled it much better
1 March 2019
Warning: Spoilers
The thing that bugged me with episode the most was Amy and Jake's evident disregard for the entire premise of the American justice system, innocent until proven guilty. It sets a dangerous standard for police officers to be judge and jury before any evidence is even collected. I'm sure I'll be disregarded by most, but as important as the conversation on sexual assault is, the fight against it cannot be allowed to come at the expense of a fair justice system. This show is no stranger to sensitive subjects and in the past it has handled them well, but this episode was not done well. Also, the part where Amy was going over the misogyny that she deals with felt like a bit of a hollywood exaggeration. Just a bit contrived. But again, I'll probably be disregarded. Anyway, funny episode, but cringy at times.
