And just in case you wondering if getting "the band" back together would still result in the same twisted comedic magic we've come to expect, we ask that you just keep this in mind…

THE SQUIRRELS IN THE DUCTS ARE NOT MAKING WORDS!

"'Reno 911!' holds a special place in our hearts, and it will be a delight to get the original cast back together for 're-boot goofin. Hopefully Nick Swardson can still roller skate. Quibi's short format seems custom made for our show."

Running from 2003 to 2009 and structured as a mockumentary-style series that parodied popular "crime cam" series "such as Cops, Reno 911! developed a strong following based on the combination of the cast's improv skills with the storylines' unscripted vibe. The series popularity would lead to the silver screen, with feature film Reno 911!: Miami released in 2007.

Peter Principato of Artists First executive produces alongside with Danny DeVito, Michael Shamberg, and Stacey Sher of Jersey Television. Additional casting will be announced at a later date, and Comedy Central Productions is set to produce.
