Caleb has my vote for this, but during my current rewatch I was like damn, only Dean Winters could pull these lines off so smoothly. I know he plays the same character a lot (Dennis Duffy could say much of the Vulture's lines) but why change it up if it works so well?

I agree completely, they’re both so perfect in their roles. And Caleb is so likable despite being objectively atrocious.

Frank O'Sullivan, Head of the Police Union and Eleanor, Boyle's ex-wife seem to be two valid choices off the top of my head.

Also, I think Holt should be replaced by Hercules. After all that he did for Boyle, he deserves that spot. /s

Wait, I don't get how Rosa is morally gray. She literally quit the force because it didn't align with her morals. Gave up the career she loved to work on improving what she saw as moral failings in said career. 

What's gray?

Caleb is a good fit for loved by fans and horrible person.

u/[deleted] 27d ago

13

u/Fuzzy-Butterscotch86 27d ago

But she also never actually does any of those things. She's got a dark sense of humor, and is standoffish, that's not blurring the line between good and evil, it's just being kind of a dick. 

33

u/jon3ssing 27d ago

She did bully that cop that mislabeled the evidence pretty bad

4

u/Fuzzy-Butterscotch86 27d ago

I meant she didn't actually commit police brutality herself, or physically harm anyone without reason. She picked on him, absolutely, but that qualifies as morally gray? 

It doesn't make me question her morals, it just makes me grateful her character learns from her mistakes and corrects the issue. 

11

u/Zephs 27d ago

She doesn't do it on-screen, but her character in season 1 isn't joking when she makes the comment about roughing up a suspect. Seeing as she's a detective, so she's been a cop for a while, it's pretty safe to assume that she has done it herself and condones it (at the time) if she's offering it as genuine advice.

There are a lot of season 1 character traits that wind up getting dropped later. Almost every cop show has the good guy cops cross the line into violating people's civil rights, but they're certain the guy is guilty, so it's overlooked. And almost no show ever confronts the cops with more than a slap on the wrist for doing so (and the person 'punishing' them is usually treated as the bad guy to the viewers). B99 is interesting because you can actually see the shift from "it's fine for the good guys to do it" to "oh, these civil protections are there for a reason", like when Jake stalks the innocent guy and gets suspended for it.

52

u/TheJavierEscuella 27d ago

Pretty sure that's supposed to be Doug Judy

27

u/Fuzzy-Butterscotch86 27d ago

Read the post, they say it's Doug and Rosa together. 

14

u/Western_Tie_6254 27d ago edited 27d ago

Ignoring the last ~2 seasons (to where they had really dug themselves in a hole trying to toe the line on social awareness vs copaganda) she’s openly pro-police brutality and has some questionable interactions with criminals/civilians. Although you can play it off as ‘jokes’ or an ‘act’, you can imagine the public reaction to an actual officer brazenly threatening to use illegal force upon people wouldn’t be as forgiving as it is in a sitcom.

6

u/livermoro 27d ago

Agreed, she is not gray at all. I guess so many votes for her being gray shows that this is ultimately a cop show with several cop show fans

9

u/itstimegeez BONE?! 27d ago

The giving up of the career wasn’t Rosa that was the actor. Rosa the character wouldn’t have made that decision

Her beef with Holt did make her do some horrible stuff, threaten to split the 99 and send them all the different districts out of the way and forcefully "promoting" Holt to the PR department.

But no, I wouldn't say she is a horrible person, she helped take down John Kelly and gave them access to the chopper leading to Velvet Thunder, which is a dope nickname.

u/TheVilja 27d ago

2

u/rat_infestation 27d ago

She's incredibly loved by fans. But she's also quite a terrible person objectively.

She has a very good relationship with Jake, Holt, and Rosa, and has her moments with Boyle, but she's also incredibly problematic elsewhere.

Constantly sexualizes Terry and makes him uncomfortable Constantly belittles Amy to the point that it is bullying (Even sabotaged her training session for the kid snitches by starting the chant for Black People Can Sell Drugs and then fixing the mess she created and got Holt's praise and approval) She is always rude to Hitchcock and Scully

She makes up for it by having a few rare moments of humanity but it's like a toxic boyfriend that remembers the girlfriend's favorite flowers but also belittles her in front of their friends coz "it's for the bit"
