TV Quick Hits: ‘Brooklyn Nine-Nine’ casting scoop; ‘Hell’s Kitchen’ renewed; ‘Crazy Ex-Girlfriend’ promo

More “Hell’s Kitchen” – We begin this edition of TV Quick Hits with news that is hardly a surprise: There’s going to be a whole lot more “Hell’s Kitchen” coming up in the future!

Today, Fox confirmed that they have renewed the Gordon Ramsay cooking competition, which is about as crazy of a cooking show as you are going to find, for seasons 17 and 18. To think, this is a show that has been around since 2005, and has been an incredibly utility player over the years. It can be plugged in almost anywhere, even in the middle of the season to replace a struggling show elsewhere. The ratings are often solid, and the show is rather inexpensive to make beyond of course Ramsay.

The 16th season of the show premieres later this month.
