Production

In September 2016, Genius Brands announced that they were partnering with The Lion King and Flypaper director Rob Minkoff and Frozen writer Shane Morris on their new Rainbow Rangers series.[46] The show premiered on the Nick Jr. Channel on November 5, 2018.

Early designs had the Rangers looking much more stylized than their finalized versions, with minor variations in their powers and personalities, and the original villain was Acrimonia, Kalia's jealous younger sister, instead of Preston Praxton.[47]

Nickelodeon has gained broadcast rights in the United States and Caribbean Basin regions.[1] On April 23, 2019, it was announced that Nickelodeon would also be bringing the show to Latin America.[48]

When the COVID-19 pandemic began to take effect, a special episode of the show was commissioned called "Bunny-20" that streamed online on December 18, 2020 with Pierce Brosnan as a guest voice actor. The episode's goal was to teach young children about ways to keep safe during the pandemic and make it understandable to viewers.[49]

In 2021, the series was streamed on Netflix in late June/early July, though the episodes are shown in production order instead of broadcast order.
