A key character is leaving Brooklyn Nine-Nine. Today, star Chelsea Peretti announced she’s stepping down from the NBC TV show.
Peretti plays fan favorite Gina Linetti on the cop comedy, which was recently revived by NBC after being cancelled by FOX. The cast also includes Andy Samberg, Andre Braugher, Terry Crews, Melissa Fumero, Joe Lo Truglio, Stephanie Beatriz, Joel McKinnon Miller, and Dirk Blocker.
On Twitter, Peretti announced her exit from Brooklyn Nine-Nine but promised Gina won’t be gone forever. The series’ sixth season is expected to debut on NBC in early 2019.
B99 fans. Hiiiiiiiiiiii. Chelsea Peretti, here. I won't be doing a full season of Brooklyn Nine Nine in Season 6. But that doesn’t mean I won’t ever be back, winky face emoji, heart emoji. I want to thank you for the hours you spent watching Gina be Gina:

What do you think? Do you watch Brooklyn Nine-Nine? Are you sad Chelsea Peretti is leaving?
In all actuality she is my least favorite regular character on the show. I find her character obnoxious and don’t think she really adds anything to the B 99.
Never really cared for her character on the show. She wont be missed in my eyes. I found her to be the weakest character and I was never drawn to her I felt more put off. If she never ever returns it will make the show that much better.
