`Brooklyn Nine-Nine` is a popular American sitcom that gives a closer look into the daily life of detectives from Brooklyn. Headlined by Andy Samberg, Melissa Fumero, Stephanie Beatriz, Terry Crews, Andre Braugher, Joe Lo Truglio, and Chelsea Peretti, the show was concluded in 2021 after eight seasons. As Backstreet Boys is set to perform in India tonight, we look back at how the popular band`s song gave the sitcom one of its best opening scene.
The seventeenth episode of season 5 begins with Andy Samberg who plays detective Jake Peralta making 5 criminals sing the song `I Want It That Way`. The reason you ask? To identify the true criminal, whom a witness identifies only by voice. When Jake Peralta asks the witness if she recognises any men in the police lineup, she answers in negative saying she was hiding when the crime took place. But, she adds, “I heard him, he was singing along to the music at the bar . . . I think it was that song, ‘I Want It That Way.`”
