Pimento being the best Brooklyn 99 character for 17 minutes straight | Brooklyn Nine-Nine

[@kbrizzy_bermuda]

To me, Holt sitting through that entire “Pimento as an imaginary teacher losing his job” monologue, without interjecting once, is proof that the goofiness of the squad had rubbed off on him…

[@spacekid2132]

Pimento should have been a main character and I am still sad that his wedding with Rosa didn't pull through

[@partypoppers1988]

He worked better coming in every now and then for a stint. Causing good-natured chaos, then heading off elsewhere on his adventures.

[@AldrickExGladius]

Right! I would have LOVED to see that wedding! Their relationship was definitely the best of all of Rosa's relationships.

[@-Offstar]

As a main character he would of quickly overstayed his welcome. He is why too unhinged and hysterical so as a main character he would have gotten old fast. He is best as a recurring character that shows up every once in awhile.

[@lens_hunter]

I personally think that the show took a huge nose dive after they broke up. It feels like they only did it so they could make Rosa bi.

Adrian Pimento and Jean Ralphio (Parks and Rec) are my two favorite characters ever that just show up on their respective shows. Pimento 'accidentally' sniffing coke multiple times is just the funniest scene ever. Pimento Memento "WHAT IS THIS TABLE?!!?!" Jason wreaks comedy. Honorable mention to Officer Debbie (Vanessa Bayer) who would have made a fantastic 99 regular. "Cone duty! Yay!" RIP Captain Holt.

I’m still really sad they broke up Rosa and Pimento. I really don’t get why so many years later. Edit: I get Stephanie asked for Rosa to be bisexual, which is fine. But it still doesn't mean they had to break up or eventually come back together. I know many women who are bisexual and they're still with men. They could have easily fought against the stereotype of her identity still mattering even in a straight passing relationship. And let's be honest: the women Rosa dated after Pimento never held a candle to him. They were comedic and chemistry gold and I always felt it was a massive mistake to break them up.

[@jackwhitbread4583]

Because Stephanie Beatriz asked the writers to make her character bisexual.
