Episodes
On July 9, 2017, executive producer Hay replied on Twitter to a question about whether the fourth season would be the last season, saying that it "most likely" would be.[11]
Production
In contrast to the computer-animated film, the series is 2D-animated. The series' creators wanted to make it more "cartoonish", but found doing "squash and stretch" in CG too expensive for television.[12] Different animation technique also helped the series to stand out from the feature film, which was concurrently shown on Netflix.[12] The first three episodes were animated in Toon Boom Harmony by Vancouver's Bardel Entertainment.[13][12] DreamWorks soon found that Harmony was not the best fit for animating scenes that contained multiple characters at once.[12] The rest of the episodes were traditionally hand-drawn by South Korean studios: EMation, NE4U, and Dong Woo Animation.[12]
