Move over, Greendale Human Being. Greendale Community College has a new mascot: a peacock.

Beloved sitcom Community is heading to Peacock, the streaming home of most things NBC, the show’s original network. It’s a bit of a homecoming for Dan Harmon’s cult series, which faced cancellation throughout its entire run, moved to a streaming service it probably killed, and has a long-threatened spin-off movie that’s maybe in production. NBC has never been a comfortable home for Community, what with the National Broadcasting Company firing Harmon ahead of season four, bringing him back for another season the following year, and ultimately canceling the show. In this entertainment hellscape where any intellectual property with any audience is valuable, even the misfit member of NBC’s unreal late-2000s Thursday night lineup, which included 30 Rock, The Office, and Parks And Recreation, can get a revival.

Unsurprisingly, Peacock will also be home to Community: The Movie, whenever that comes out. Star Joel McHale recently told Deadline that he’d be “shocked” if the movie doesn’t film this year. “I really do think it’s happening this year and probably next week,” he said. “It’s basically working around Donald [Glover’s] schedule.” However, while Glover and McHale believe the script is done, Harmon told Variety in February that it’s “almost done” and [spoiler] set on the campus of Greendale Community College.

“I can confirm Donald Glover’s report that I told him the script was done, but I will also say Donald’s sources are so unreliable because the script is always ‘almost done,’” Harmon said. “What can I tell you about it — it’s set on the campus of Greendale Community College. I’m super excited about it, and we’re almost done.”

But while we wait for the prophesized six seasons and a movie to become a reality, we can watch the show on Peacock.

Community will become streamable on Peacock starting April 1.
