B99 was a very good comedy that took place in an absolute fantasy world.
But hey, that’s sitcoms for you. Nobody in Big Bang Theory has to spend a season wiggling out of date rape allegations. Nobody in 7th Heaven gets molested by a priest. Nobody in Cheers beats their spouse.
I really like how Brooklyn 99 addressed this at the end.

Well, yes. If you expect any TV show to be a 100% unbiased, accurate representation of reality, you’re an idiot.
That doesn’t mean they can’t address societal issues in a meaningful way.
