Comedy Central's Cops-parodying mockumentary, which aired from 2003 to 2009 and spawned a 2007 Reno 911!: Miami movie, is coming back for a seventh season on the shortform streaming service. Original series creators and cast members Robert Ben Garant, Thomas Lennon, and Kerri Kenney-Silver are attached to write and star in the new season with additional cast members to be revealed at a later date. Comedy Central Productions, Comedy Central's new studio arm, will produce the revival. “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,'” Lennon said. “Hopefully Nick Swardson can still roller skate. Quibi’s short format seems custom made for our show.” Lennon already has a relationship with Quibi with his vineyard comedy Winos.
