ESPN moves up release for 'The Last Dance' documentary on Michael Jordan, 1990s Bulls, per report - USA TODAY

Rejoice, Twitter brigade, and chalk this one up as a victory. 

After being met with outcries on social media to fill the void in the sports world by moving up the release date of the highly anticipated Michael Jordan-1990s Chicago Bulls documentary "The Last Dance," ESPN and its partners have agreed to premiere the first part on April 19, according to the New York Post. 

"The Last Dance," a 10-part series that primarily focuses on footage from the final Jordan-Bulls championship run from 1997-98, was scheduled to air in June in conjunction with the NBA Finals. But the coronavirus pandemic has altered the sports and programming landscape, making this a welcome move for sports fanatics.
