Well, B99 had a good run.
I think he's a decent enough comedy actor, his stuff on the office was drat solid in all but his last two seasons. Bad writing mostly got to him in that show I think.

I just hope they do something different than the normal "naive shlub" he normally plays.

B99 has been pretty good at bringing very cliched stock characters into seemingly new places, so I wouldn't be too worried if they play Helms to type.

I enjoyed the episode with Craig Robinson last season.

Maybe have Ed Helms be a small cop who ran into Peralta when he was undercover and have him be convinced he's a mob guy who infiltrated the NYPD.

Same. I truly expected him as just a buddy coming in for an episode, but to then make him the nemesis was great. Leaves a small, surely exquisite arc left open and Jake needs a real personal victory outside of undercover, which he never wanted, or his love life, which is a separate entity.

And that's a great idea! Helms excels only as supporting or auxiliary, and that would be the best use of him as I've ever seen.

The writers hated either the character or him, because the last two seasons were all about deconstructing and showing that Andy never actually was of worth. Even the gleeful sociopath Michael Scott had a happy ending, and Andy went into the ground.

undercover, which he never wanted

Undercover was his DREAM job, dude. He spends all season being obsessed with coming up with clever covers for himself during regular assignments.

edit: the show straight up starts with him quoting Donnie Brasco, the best undercover cop movie of all time.

Which explains his explosive, crazy positive reaction? What Jake wants is to be the absolute best detective and he romanticized undercover endlessly, but being given it was a burden. He may enjoy it yet but he was always happy with his job, sitting where he sat, and living his routine.

She didn't yell at him she gave him a cheap kid's police officer costume as an insult.

Then she made fun of him to her book club and spraypainted something horrid but unseen on the precinct elevator.

As I told Rarity in the other thread, the new OP should just be a gigantic shirtless picture of Terry Crews.

For extra creep factor, maybe edit in the other people's faces on his ab muscles or something.
