Production

Inspiration for the series happens when creator Brandon Sawyer watched a rough cut of The Boss Baby: Family Business by McGrath and McCullers.[3] The series was worked on during the production of the sequel.[4]

Animation for the series was provided by Technicolor Animation Productions and Toiion (who have done work for Spirit Riding Free).

Release

The series premiered on Netflix on May 19, 2022.[5][6] A second season is set to be released on April 13, 2023.[7]

Reception

Common Sense Media gave it a 2 out of 5 stars for too much dark sarcasm and consumerism in unpleasant series.[8]
