The series is co-produced by Bandera Entertainment, ShadowMachine and 20th Television Animation, being distributed by Disney Platform Distribution.

The series follows Petey, a New York City “it” girl who has it all until her life comes crashing down around her. As luck would have it, a mysterious gift from her father gives her a new lease on life: She’s going to “lean into” modernizing his small-town cult.
News of the series was first announced on December 9, 2021 by Jamila Hunter, EVP programming & development for Freeform. The network handed Praise Petey, from SNL head writer Anna Drezen and executive producers Monica Padrick, Mike Judge and Greg Daniels, a series order. Additional executive producers are Bandera Entertainment’s Dustin Davis, and ShadowMachine’s Alex Bulkley and Corey Campodonico. The series is produced by 20th Television Animation, with animation by ShadowMachine.
Hunter said, “It’s kind of the A-team. It was a spec script that we bought and Annie Murphy got attached early on. We’ve had such a great opportunity to attract talent because Anna [Drezen] is so incredibly funny and smart. Animation has a great opportunity to be funny and thought provoking. That’s what we love about it.”
Drezen said, “I can’t believe I get to make this show with so many funny and smart people. Getting to work with Monica, Bandera, Freeform, ShadowMachine, 20th Television Animation and this amazing cast has been a blast and dream — a bleam. This rules.”
began production in early 2022.
