While Brooklyn Nine-Nine boasts several entertaining Christmas episodes, Season 2, Episode 11, “The Pontiac Bandit Returns,” stands out for its unique blend of holiday spirit and comedic brilliance.
Brooklyn Nine-Nine is not only one of the best sitcoms to date, but has some of the most entertaining Christmas specials, from parodying Die Hard in Season 3, Episode 10: 'Yippie Kayak' to infiltrating an Eastern European crime syndicate in Season 4, Episode 10: 'Captain Lavia.' However, their best Christmas episode is arguably the one least to do with Christmas, which is Season 2, Episode 11: “The Pontiac Bandit Returns.
' This episode's main narrative may have little to do with Christmas directly, but its setting and themes certainly make it a holiday themed episode. Not only does this set a warm and wholesome context for the episode, but the dynamic between Jake Peralta and Doug Judy is fantastic, making us belly ache laugh as well as wish we had a friendship like the charismatic one these two share. In this episode, Jake and Rosa capture Doug Judy, and, in exchange for a reduced prison sentence, the car thief helps them track down and arrest Giggle Pig drug supplier Tito Ruiz. This leads to Doug and Jake hanging out in a hotel room ordering Lobster Thermidor and wearing swanky robes. Yet, despite Jake's best efforts, during the sting to catch Tito, Doug Judy is able to escape with the help of a friend busting in with a garbage truck. In the other sub-plots of the episode, we see Amy attempting to get around Captain Holt's no-gift policy by making him a scrapbook detailing his past cases for free, as Holt defined a gift as anything that had cost money. In doing so, Amy comes across a mistake Holt made in his past case of the Brooklyn Broiler, which Holt respects when she brings it to him
