UPCOMING BROOKLYN 9-9 AND NEW GIRL CROSSOVER EVENT!

October 5, 2016

“BROOKLYN NINE-NINE” AND “NEW GIRL” MEET IN NEW YORK
IN THE COMEDY CROSSOVER EVENT OF THE YEAR,
AIRING TUESDAY, OCTOBER 11, ON FOX

Comedy worlds collide this fall when characters from BROOKLYN NINE-NINE and NEW GIRL meet each other in the Big Apple in back-to-back episodes airing Tuesday, Oct. 11 on FOX 25. The one-hour crossover event begins with BROOKLYN NINE-NINE (7:00-7:30 PM CST) and concludes with NEW GIRL (7:30-8:00 PM CST). Show descriptions are below.

“BROOKLYN NINE-NINE crossing over with NEW GIRL is very exciting, but (and this is supposed to be a secret) it’s just the first step,” said Dan Goor, co-creator and executive producer of BROOKLYN NINE-NINE. “Stay tuned for our two casts to do a soulful R&B number on EMPIRE, co-anchor the FOX 10 O’Clock News and connect for a touchdown on FOX NFL SUNDAY. But in all seriousness, we’re all huge fans of NEW GIRL here at the Nine-Nine, and we’re excited to see our characters interact and to work with their incredible writers and producers. And also to see what their craft services are like, compared to ours.”

“The crossover episode has historically been the artistic high point of any show that has dared to attempt it,” said Elizabeth Meriwether, creator and executive producer of NEW GIRL. “Maybe you remember ‘Blackout Thursday’ on NBC, or even further back the infamous ‘Alf’/‘Gilligan’s Island’ crossover of the late 1980s. NEW GIRL and BROOKLYN NINE-NINE will proudly and humbly go where few shows have gone since the 1990s. We know we have big shoes to fill, and we look forward to disappointing everyone. There’s a 50% chance Alf will also be in both episodes. But there’s also a 50% chance that is a lie.”
