Have just finished watching and Pixar have struck gold with the TV documentary style show depicting the stars and creators of our dreams. Genuinely funny and I was personally just as emotionally invested in this as I was during the famous beats in Toy Story 2 and Up. Funny, Uplifting. Genuinely worth making some popcorn and loosing a couple of hours in an evening. I sincerely hope that the creative team come back for more. My only and main criticism is that it is clearly a movie split into 4 parts. I want more. Someone get this show a second season! With the concept it could genuinely go on for years and remain this good.
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.

There's a lot of negatives and positives from this show but I'll recommend it to anyone who likes the inside out franchise.
Unlike most Disney plus shows this one is quite a relaxing sight that will put a smile on your face. It starts off a basic master student drama but as the show progresses it connects to a much more emotional story that anyone could relate to.
I found a lot of moments in the show quite predictable but still very interesting. Some of the characters are a bit boring and too easy to understand while others are quite the watch.
Overall it's not what you think it better than that.

I love the two Inside Out movies, they are among my favorite Pixar animated movies of all time and when I found out that there was a mini series about Riley's dreams, I knew that I was watching to it. Well, I just finished watching it and this was an excellent mini series as well as one of the best shows of 2024.
Positives for Dream Productions (2024): This mini series does what made the two Inside Out movies did so well which is exploring element of the human experience in a creative and unique way. For all the crap that I tend to give Disney lately, whenever they had an idea as brilliant as this one, they do it better than no one else. I also loved how the Dream Productions logo is the same as Paramount Pictures. The mini series uses the mockumentary style of The Office and that was cool to see. I really enjoyed a lot of the characters and the journeys they go on are awesome. And finally, this is one of those mini series that can be enjoyed with the entire family.
Overall, Dream Productions (2024) was a fantastic mini series and another hit from Pixar that I can see myself rewatching in the future and it serves as a great companion to the Inside Out movies.

Like a little dessert, it has all the spirit of Inside Out but explores a world so interesting and beautiful that you can't help but want more. The characters are just perfect, each with their unique charm and depth, and the quality is stunning-just like the movie. However, while it's undeniably delightful, it feels like a missed opportunity to fully delve into the richness of this world. There's so much potential to expand the storylines, deepen the emotional arcs, and truly immerse the audience. With only four episodes, it feels like a brief taste of something that could have been a masterpiece if given more time. Still, it's a joy to watch, and I'd highly recommend it to anyone looking for a short but memorable experience.

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!

More of a mini-movie split into 4 parts than a mini-series, Dream Productions fits smoothly into the canon of the other two movies. The movie introduces us into some inner workings of the Dream studio. The humor and animation quality are top notch, and I continue to love the way the dreams themselves are presented.
The dream makers themselves are an interesting enough bunch, I'm especially fond of Xeni's off beat style
However, it is clear that the writer's didn't have quite the same ingenious spark that they did when writing for the Emotions. As a result, the climatic decision and emotional resolution lack some of that heft of the movies.
In particular it seemed that the main conflict between the dream maker's was resolved a little too cleanly, without our protagonist really learning a true lesson.
So in all, it is certainly not a bad little watch, but didn't wow me the way the two movies did.

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.

In this mini series we meet the team behind Riley's dreams. The dreams are pretty much run like short films and unfortunately the main director (Paula Permission voiced by Paula Pell) still thinks that Riley is a kid who still remembers the dream that helped her give up her dummy when she was a baby so when Riley struggles with the big decision of whether or not to go to her first highschool dance Paula thinks it's best for Riley to take her unicorn toy. And as the dance gets closer and the dreams get more intense Paula struggles with nightmares and sleepwalking which makes the series intense. Will Paula be able to accept that Riley is growing up and help her get over this fear of going to the dance...well you'll have to watch the series to find out.
I also found the series a bit slow to start off with but by the 2nd episode I was laughing quite a bit especially at a part when Paula is talking to the audience whilst in a car and she lets her dog drive and all you can see in the background is them crashing into everything. Most of the story is told via Paula speaking to the camera which was enjoyable and funny.
The series is also set in between Inside Out 1 & 2 so it would be really good to see a 2nd series where we meet the more grown up emotions like anxiety, envy, etc. It would also be good to see a 2nd season because the 1st season is only 4 short episodes and I would love to see more of this world by watching a prequel as well as a sequel. So, if they do make a 2nd season I would happily watch it and I would also happily watch this season again as well.

The show takes place as a bit part in the movies. It uses recurring characters from the dream sequences in the movies inside out and all new characters as well. It's filmed liked one of those behind the scenes talking things, which is not bad. The show has alot of creativity to it and the way the plot runs away with itself is outright hilarious and ingenious. It keeps to the morale of the story, the main character has to realize something about herself and those around her. Great writing about screen writers for dreams. I could watch several seasons of this show and be happy. Keep up the creative work!

"Dream Productions" offers a fun and original concept with a creative premise that showcases some great character development. The series is easy to watch, mainly due to its short runtime, which prevents it from becoming overwhelming. However, despite the interesting concept, I found it difficult to fully connect with the characters. They are charming, but I didn't feel the same emotional attachment as I did with the characters from Inside Out. While the series is entertaining enough, it didn't manage to hold my attention for long periods. My deep love for the Inside Out films may have influenced my expectations, and as a result, I couldn't help but compare the two, which impacted my enjoyment of this series. Overall, it's an enjoyable watch, but it didn't quite capture the magic I was hoping for.

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.

When i was building Lego, my sister suddendly appeard out of nowhere and strated watching that show, and it was annoying,i had to tell her to stop but she did not listent, i saw some people saying that this show will be bad, and they were right, this is not whorth watching it, i was so furioso i will tell someone that they have to tell to cancel dream productions, because it was annoying for lego builders, and there was too much talikng and not tellin what they do in dream productions, and some of the reviews were written by 5 year olds, it was still better than Megamind vs the doom syndicate but i still think these cringe disney adults should stop.
