The first two seasons of DreamWork’s Dragons aired on Cartoon Network. However, the third and fourth seasons of the show will be Netflix exclusives. The show takes place during the time between the first and second How to Train Your Dragon films and shows how the vikings from the movie adjust to having dragons as partners instead of enemies, reports The Wall Street Journal.

“The How to Train Your Dragon franchise has been incredible to work with,” Art Brown and Douglas Sloan, producers of DreamWork’s Dragons, told Variety. “There is so much rich material available to us in the TV world that we can really dig in and create a different yet complementary experience to the feature films.”

Each new season of DreamWork’s Dragons will include 26 episodes that will be released over time. This is different from other Netflix exclusive series, such as House of Cards and Orange is the New Black, that get all of their episodes released at once. There currently aren’t any plans to bring the first two seasons of the show to Netflix, WSJ notes.

DWA shares were up slightly on Thursday morning.
