The series hails from the original films’ producer Jerry Bruckheimer in association with the Wibberleys, who are all serving as executive producers. It is a production by Jerry Bruckheimer Television with ABC Signature as its studio. The executive producer list includes the first film’s director Jon Turteltaub, Jonathan Littman, KristieAnne Reed, and Rick Muirragui, who also serves as writer.
