The series was created, executive produced, and written for Russell Peters by Frank Spotnitz and Smita Bhide (Hunted, Transporter: The Series).

It is executive produced by Blue Ice Pictures’ Lance Samuels and Daniel Iron (Madiba, The Book of Negroes), Wonder Worldwide’s Mark Burton (WaterTallulah), Russell Peters (Hip-Hop Evolution), CPI Pictures’ Clayton Peters (Breakaway, Russell Peters Versus the World), and Seven Summits’ Paul Canterna.
