If you are bored or having a bad day or have trouble sleeping. I believe this show is one of the most heartwarming shows I've seen.
It's not extraordinary or have a driving story but it's more like the inside out two film. This show is just about how the department of dreams help Riley make life changing decisions but at the core it's about the really of dreams and the movie industry as a whole.
I for one wasn't bored by a single moment. It wasn't what I wanted or expected but like I said before it's worth the watch.
I wish more shows like this are made instead of spending too much on making films that no one really cares about.

I won't say it's as amazing as the movies, but as someone that really loves both of them, I think this is worth giving a story of Dream Productions. Dream Productions is an enjoyable miniseries that expands of what it's like in a dream studio. I honestly would've preferred this as a series of shorts where we get segments of dreams. The most we get here is just a documentary plot. But I can forgive this for setting a good representation of dreams with a decently told story, enjoyable characters, and of course, amazing animation that even contributes the world of the studio. If you loved the movies, I think you will enjoy this one too. Even if it is a short series with just four episodes, I believe you will have a good time how it expands the world of Riley's mind. Do I think it's as spectacular as the movies? Obviously not. But I believe it is worth giving a better detail as part of the movies.
Have you run out of shows while you wait for a new season of your favorite show, well Disney+ has this little hidden gem!
I really recommend it, it's not the same emotional roller-coaster as the films, but it's good and definitely worth the watch and I'm even a big Disney critic when it comes to alot of their newest releases.
People obviously have different tastes, that's also when it comes to Disney spin off shows, in my opinion this is worth a watch.
I am hoping for another season of this and I don't mind it being only a few episodes like this one, they could actually keep this up for a few seasons, market it alittle more and maybe have Riley grow up and having her dreams progress more, just an idea.

This show is great!
Dream Productions was always my favorite part of the original Inside Out movie, so I was thrilled when I heard Pixar was making a spinoff series for Dream Productions.
There was so much character growth and development, and the ending was really great.
I would love to see more Inside Out movies and series in the future, and of course it's always a plus when my RH fam appears.
Maya played Noriko, and Kimberly played Gigi.
I really liked everything about this show, and I encourage you to give it a try, because it's really sweet.
Thank you for reading my review.
I've been dreaming of this show since 2015!

Let's be honest-spinoff miniseries from major franchises often feel like unnecessary add-ons. They usually ride on the coattails of the main story without adding much substance. So I was surprised when Dream Productions, Pixar's series set in the world of Inside Out, turned out to be a genuinely enjoyable watch.
Released on Disney+ in December 2024, Dream Productions cleverly positions itself between the events of Inside Out and Inside Out 2, but manages to stand on its own without relying too heavily on nostalgia. The story focuses on Paula Persimmon (voiced by Paula Pell), an old-school dream director in Riley's mind, and her collaboration and occasional tension with the enthusiastic daydreamer Xeni (Richard Ayoade). Told in a mockumentary style that gives off strong The Office vibes, the show pulls back the curtain on Riley's dream-making department, showing us just how much behind-the-scenes brainpower is working to keep her emotional world afloat.
What I really appreciated was that Dream Productions didn't try to outdo the emotional weight of the films. Instead, it leaned into the idea that not every part of Riley's journey needs to be a dramatic ordeal. Sometimes, it's the little quirks, like the way her brain processes dreams or how her subconscious deals with change that are the most fascinating. It gave us more of those fleeting, imaginative corners of Riley's mind we only caught glimpses of in the movies, and it made the world feel bigger without feeling bloated.
The voice cast is top tier, with familiar voices like Amy Poehler, Phyllis Smith, and Lewis Black returning, but it's Paula Pell and Richard Ayoade who carry the heart and humor of the show. The animation is on point, and Nami Melumad's funky, jazzy score gives the whole thing a unique energy that helps set it apart from the films.
So while I went in a skeptic, Dream Productions won me over. It may not be essential viewing for Inside Out fans, but if you're looking for something clever, heartfelt, and just plain fun, it's a surprising little gem that proves even side stories can shine.
