Modern Family is on the move. All 11 seasons of the family comedy will be joining Nick at Nite‘s programming lineup beginning next Monday, Sept. 9. Episodes will run daily on Nickelodeon’s nighttime programming block from 2-4 a.m.

As Modern Family starts its run on Paramount’s Nick at Nite, the series will be leaving NBCUniversal’s linear networks. Originally launching in cable syndication on USA Network in 2013, Modern Family has been most recently on NBCU’s E!, regularly airing back-to-back repeats from 4 PM to 11 PM on weeknights.

The cable network is planning a 14-hour Modern Family marathon next Wednesday, with the final airing slated for midnight on Sept. 6 before the series migrates to Nick at Nite three days later.

While departing E!, Modern Family will continue on the NBCU streamer Peacock, which will remain the show’s co-exclusive streaming home alongside Disney’s Hulu, a corporate sibling to series’ producer 20th Television.

Modern Family also will continue to run on TBS, which landed non-exclusive linear rights to the series last fall.

This is the first time Modern Family, whose original run was on ABC, will be on a Paramount network; the company also owns the sitcom-focused TV Land.

“Nick at Nite is home to an exceptional roster of fan-favorite and critically acclaimed comedy series, including Friends, Mike & Molly, and Mom, and we are thrilled to have the Emmy Award-winning sitcom Modern Family join our lineup,” said Rachel Crain, SVP, Programming & Content Strategy, Nickelodeon Networks. “Our Nick at Nite viewers are sure to connect with the heartfelt authenticity, hilarious honesty and zealous bravery that has made Modern Family such a pop culture staple around the world.”

On Nick at Nite, Modern Family also joins reruns of Young Sheldon and The Neighborhood. The licensing agreement with Disney Entertainment was negotiated on behalf of Paramount Global by Barbara Zaneri, Chief Programming Acquisitions Officer.
