'Reno 911' Tries to Takes Down QAnon in Exclusive Trailer for New Special

The Reno 911 deputies have never met a mission quite like this one.

After rebooting the classic Comedy Central series for the ill-fated Quibi last year, the whole crew is back again this month for a new special, promisingly titled Reno 911! The Hunt for QAnon, which is streaming on Paramount+ starting December 23rd.

In the exclusive trailer below, we see a glimpse of the morning meeting in which Lieutenant Jim Dangle (Thomas Lennon) lays out the plan to find and “serve” Q by going undercover on a QAnon convention at sea that is sailing from Florida to Nassau. When they find out they can board the ship, Dangle exclaims the QAnon slogan, “Where we go one, we go all!”

Robert Ben Garant, who co-created the original series, portrays Deputy Travis Junior and directed the new special, tells The Daily Beast that since, in the past, Reno 911 has “had run-ins with the Proud Boys, volunteered to build a section of the Mexico wall, and tried to shoot an unarmed white guy to make our stats looks better, Q seemed right in our comfort zone.”

Sums up Reno 911 nicely. Hilarious.

I hope I don't have to pay to see it.
