Quibi’s Got a Part 2 to Their “Reno 911” Run

August 18, 2020
News
part 2, quibi, reno 911, trailer

While the pandemic has certainly thrown a wrench in Quibi’s master plans, they did manage to secure some Emmy nominations and are pushing forward with their quest for mobile streaming domination.

Part of that plan is the high profile get they scored with Reno 911!, which debuted with new episodes just a few months ago. Perhaps, in anticipation of an uphill battle for subscribers to pay for their exclusive content, they have a second part to their run for the long standing cop satire.

Seeing the incompetence of law enforcement happens to be pretty popular right now and there is certainly plenty of that in this trailer for Part 2 of Quibi’s Reno 911! See for yourself here, then, if you have access to Quibi, check out the whole thing on Mon. Aug. 24th.

Quibi’s Reno911 Finally Gets a Full Trailer

Quibi is nearing a month since their launch and, it would seem, that they’ve still rolling out their top-billed shows. Namely, the revived Reno911 has yet to make it to the mobile only streaming platform, but that will change next week.

On Monday, May 4th, if you’re not obsessed with whatever is happening with Star Wars that day, you’ll be able to enjoy brand spankin’ new tomfoolery from Reno’s finest in the new “quick bites” episodes of Reno911. We’ve only got small sneak peeks here and there thus far, but you can now great a great look at what insanity is in store for this new season with this official, full Reno911 Quibi trailer.

Even Reno911 Is Going on Zoom Meetings (and Will Have New Episodes May 4th on Quibi)

Of the offerings that Quibi has since its launch this week, one of the more high profile things coming to mobile only streaming platform is brand spankin’ new episodes of the beloved cop mockumentary Reno911.

It was announced today that Thurs. May 4th will be officially when new Reno911 episodes will come to Quibi and, if you can’t wait that long until that date, you can enjoy some mini-sodes that have been made while in self-isolation over Zoom (as even Reno’s “finest” is observing social distancing).

First Look of Return of Reno 911 at Quibi

If the intriguing short form streaming service Quibi indeed gets to launch next month as planned, we’ll all get to see the return of Reno 911, the beloved parody of long running docu-series Cops.

Looks like the whole cast is back in action and their dynamic is picking up right where they left off. See for yourself in this sneak peek here.

As it stands right now, the current launch date for Quibi is April 6th, but, as with everything right now, that is subject to change.

Reno 911! to Ride Again at Quibi

Reno 911! to Ride Again at Quibi

Quibi is really good at keeping their hype up in the air. Their curious, niche projects from very funny people (amongst dozens of other genre projects they’ve got in development) have drummed plenty of anticipation for the short form streaming service. 

A full on revival of Reno 911!, as far as their comedy slate is concerned, might be their biggest get yet and one that makes their future even more interesting (and viable?). Reno 911!’s Robert Ben Garant, Thomas Lennon, and Kerri Kenney-Silver are set to return both as writers and cast members and perhaps what was born as a parody of the long-running reality series Cops very well might translate from half hour episodic to short form.

We’ll all just have to wait and see how this plays out when Quibi officially arrives as a streaming service, but, again, they’re doing a pretty job of keeping people curious and talking about them thus far.

(via Deadline)

IFC’s latest addition to their development slate is a project from Chelsea Handler’s Borderline Amazing Productions, created and written by Jamie Denbo and Kerri Kenney called Rabbit Hole. 

While the Bunny Ranch is known as the most famous brothel in Nevada, Rabbit Hole would follow the second most famous brothel. What that in mind, this could be like Reno 911 is to Cops, but to Cathouse.
