Stephanie Biatriz is the Toughest Thing About “Brooklyn Nine-Nine”

Stephanie Beatriz

Melissa Fumero

There’s a new extended trailer for FOX’s new cop-comedy, Brooklyn Nine Nine, and it’s actually pretty funny. Andy Samberg is as inappropriate as ever, Andre Braugher offers the best deadpan in television today (from submarine captain to precinct captain in less than a year!), and Stephanie Beatriz, last seen as Sofía Vergara’s weepy and homicidal sister on Modern Family, plays the toughest cop of any gender or ethnicity–Rosa Diaz. (A name change from the pilot, where her character was known as Meghan. No question now: this girl’s one dangerous Latina). And there’s a second Latino character in the show: Melissa Gallo Fumero, best known for her work on One Life to Live, plays Amy Santiago, Samberg’s long-suffering partner.

It looks to be a funny show, and Biatriz is a major part of it. Here’s the extended trailer:
