The new trailer for Brooklyn Nine-Nine season 7 goes full 1980s in a tribute to the buddy cop genre. Created by Dan Goor and Michael Schur, the comedy follows a team of detectives and police officers as they go about their daily lives. In its early years, the series would often zero in on the contrast between Captain Raymond Holt (Andre Braugher) and the lackadaisical Jake Peralta (Andy Samberg). The show has grown in ambition, while continuing to stay true to the elements that has made it successful. Despite a cancellation scare and the exit of Chelsea Peretti, season 6 was considered by many to be a success. Now, ahead of Brooklyn Nine-Nine’s return to TV screens, we’re getting an inspired look at what’s next for the 99th precinct.

In the season 6 finale, cheekily titled “Suicide Squad”, a team is hastily assembled to foil Commissioner Kelly’s corrupt plans. After several twists and turns, which Brooklyn Nine-Nine employs so deftly during its Halloween episodes, the good guys succeed in getting Kelly fired. Holt’s rival, Madeline Wuntch (Kyra Sedgwick), is appointed as the new acting commissioner. After finding out that Holt served only one month as a patrolman before being promoted to detective, she demotes him right back to where he started. The final shot of season 6 features a dejected Holt, making sure the traffic runs smoothly.

In new trailer for Brooklyn Nine-Nine season 7, we see that Holt isn’t handling the demotion very well. It’s even affected the former detective’s relationship with Cheddar. The sneak peek fully commits to a look and feel which would look right at home in a 1980s buddy cop movie, complete with cinematic narration and retro fonts. Check out the truly inventive trailer, from the show’s YouTube channel, below.

Brooklyn Nine-Nine has already been renewed for season 8, way ahead of season 7’s premiere. It’s a particularly impressive bit of news, considering the comedy was axed by FOX. NBC, also home to other Michael Schur comedies like The Good Place and Parks and Recreation, picked it up to the delight of its fanbase. It would appear, based on the knowledge of the series running for at least two more installments, that Holt will find a way back to his old job. The fun, as it often is with Brooklyn Nine-Nine’s season-ending surprises, is in finding out how it all plays out.

It would be fair, on the other end, to worry about a comedy which has been on the air for too long. But, by all accounts, the NBC sitcom is still going strong. The most recent season revealed deeper depths to beloved characters, while continuing to bring the laughs. When season 7 debuts in February the trend will likely continue. The trailer even raises an interesting prospect: an episode of Brooklyn Nine-Nine that is filmed entirely in the style of a 1980s VHS Tape.
