Production

The show was formally announced on October 1, 2020, alongside the release of a teaser trailer.[5] A second trailer for the series followed in January 2021, prior to the series' premiere date.[1] Each 22-minute episode consists of three 7-minute shorts. In order to create this show, the producers needed to follow several rules:[6]

  • No adults are to be seen or heard.
  • Never show the interior of Snoopy's doghouse.
  • No technology produced beyond the 1970s can be featured.

Rob Boutilier serves as the series' Supervising Director, with Ridd Sorensen, Behzah Mansoori, and Steve Evangelatos also directing episodes. In addition to co-writing the second and third episodes, Alex Galatis serves as the Executive Story Editor. Josh Scherba, Anne Loi, Stephanie Betts, Paige Braddock, Craig Schulz, and Mark Evestaff (who also co-wrote the second episode) executive produce.[7]
