Police comedy series Brooklyn Nine-Nine has been saved for a sixth season after being picked up by NBC, reports Variety. The popular show, starring Andy Samberg and Andre Braugher, was cancelled after Fox announced it would not be renewing the series after season five. Fans of the show immediately took to social media and launched a campaign of sorts with the hashtag #RenewBrooklyn99. The fans were calling for the show to be picked up by another network.
