What’s the opposite of an upper-decker left in the tank of your toilet? What about the unexpected release of an upper-decker in your toilet tank? MacGruberDo you have a sequel in December? Probably?

Peacock revealed on Monday that next month will see the long-awaited return of Will Forte’s MacGruber, last seen in the 2010 cult comedy of the same name. The eight-episode series, which finds Forte’s movie costars Kristen Wiig and Ryan Phillippe back as Vicki St. Elmo and Dixon Piper, will drop all at once on Thursday, Dec. 16. The streaming site announced the series by sharing a few first-look photos as well as a teaser clip that catches up with MacGruber (now in prison).

Setup for the MacGruberSeries is appropriately extreme. After killing Dieter Von Cunth, his arch-nemesis (played in Val Kilmer), MacGruber was sentenced to prison for what a juror deemed a senseless act de violence. A military history littered with throat rips, seen by some as “untraditional,” certainly didn’t help his case. America, 10 years later calls MacGruber to eliminate Enos Queeth from his history (Billy Zane), The vest-wearing agent takes his freedom and puts together his team to save the world again. Laurence Fishburne is joined by Sam Elliot as Perry Fasoose.

Planned feature length MacGruber 2. The rumors of Netflix being a possible home have been circulating for several years, long after the initial movie was released. The first movie wasn’t exactly a hit, grossing a paltry $9.3 million, but the Saturday Night Live Character maintained a loyal following as fans discovered parodies of Michael Bay/action movies over the years. The 2021 MacGruber only exists because NBCUniveral needs mine IP for its fledgling Peacock, but it’s also a win for all the weirdos.

Forte, behind the camera serves as MacGruberAs well as being a co-showrunner, executive producer, and writer, he is also a celery guy. John Solomon, the Lonely Island veteran who directed the original movie, and Jorma Tacone join the showrunner to manage the eight episodes.
