More 'Brooklyn Nine-Nine' episodes are in store when the show makes its NBC debut

There's even more "Brooklyn Nine-Nine" coming to NBC.

The show's upcoming sixth season, which marks the cop comedy's official transition from Fox to the peacock network, will now consist of 18 episodes _ five more episodes than its original order for 13 _ it was announced Friday.

NBC scooped up the Andy Samberg-fronted half-hour series in May after Fox canceled it. The acquisition keeps "Brooklyn Nine-Nine" in the NBC family _ the comedy is produced by Universal Television, the studio arm of the network.

While a premiere date has not yet been announced, the comedy is slated to make its debut on its new home base in midseason.
