The show was initially planned for Adult Swim and was going to be called Splittin' Rent.
This is the first collaboration between corporate siblings Cartoon Network Studios and Studio T.
The show was originally being produced for TBS in 2017, but it was shelved after the network cancelled its animation programming block, following the bad ratings of "Final Space", the controversy surrounding Louis C.K., which led to the cancellation of his unproduced adult animated show for the block, "The Cops", and production issues of the show's own. Three years later, it was announced that it would instead be released on HBO Max on July 9, 2020.
The first Cartoon Network animated series to be rating TV-14, though the series premiered on HBO Max.
Jason Mantzoukas had previously guest starred on Regular Show (2010), and even played the villain
Mr. Ross in Regular Show: The Movie (2015).
