NBC has renewed the Golden Globe Award-winning series for an eighth season.

The network announced the news Thursday. 

The renewal comes well ahead of the comedy’s seventh season premiere in February. The show aired its first five seasons on Fox before being canceled. It soon found a new home on NBC which handed it a sixth season order.

Brooklyn Nine-Nine was co-created by Dan Goor and Mike Schur. It stars Andy Samberg, Andre Braugher, Terry Crews, Melissa Fumero, Stephanie Beatriz, Joe Lo Truglio, Dirk Blocker, and Joel McKinnon Miller.

Per Entertainment Weekly, season six averaged 3.2 million viewers, a number 15 percent bigger that season five’s number on Fox.
