Created by Dan Goor and Michael Schur (well-known for creating other uplifting comedies such as Parks and Recreation and The Good Place), the show has some of the most heartwarming and emotional moments, despite being a comedy. So, here are 10 moments in Brooklyn Nine-Nine that tug at the viewers' heartstrings.

10 Santiago's Thanksgiving Party (S01)

In the season 1 episode, "Thanksgiving", Amy throws the squad a Thanksgiving dinner, which Jake repeatedly tries to get out of, since he always hated Thanksgiving at his childhood home.
