USA Network Acquires 9-1-1; Space Force Season 2 Drops Feb. 18 on Netflix

The gripping hit drama 9-1-1 is coming to USA Network following a new licensing agreement between NBCUniversal Television and Streaming and Disney Media and Entertainment Distribution. Beginning Wednesday, Jan. 5, episodes will air in a block on USA on Wednesdays nights from 7-11 p.m. The deal covers all four previous seasons of the show, including an exclusive cable window that runs through mid-September 2022. The agreement also includes future seasons of 9-1-1 and the current fifth season, which will come to USA Network later this year. Creators Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk and Tim Minear reimagine the procedural drama with 9-1-1, exploring the high-pressure experiences of police officers, firefighters and dispatchers who are thrust into the most frightening, shocking and heart-stopping situations. These emergency responders must try to balance saving those who are at their most vulnerable with solving the problems in their own lives.
The provocative series stars Academy and Emmy Award nominee Angela Bassett, Emmy Award and Golden Globe nominee Peter Krause and Golden Globe nominee Jennifer Love Hewitt. Additionally, Oliver Stark, Aisha Hinds, Kenneth Choi, Ryan Guzman, Rockmond Dunbar, Corinne Massiah, Marcanthonee Jon Reis and Gavin McHugh are featured in series regular roles.

The half-hour comedy returns to Netflix on February 18, 2022 with co-showrunners Greg Daniels & Norm Hiscock and Executive Producers Greg Daniels, Steve Carell, Howard Klein, Norm Hiscock, Brent Forrester and Ken Kwapis. Season 2 of Space Force picks up with General Naird and his underdog team having to prove their worth to a new administration while dealing with interpersonal challenges. Will the group come together or fall apart under the pressure...? Space Force is only human after all. Returning Series Regulars: Steve Carell, John Malkovich, Ben Schwartz, Tawny Newsome, Diana Silvers, Jimmy O. Yang and Don Lake. Not even gravity can keep them down!
