Production
Development
The creator, Chris Gilligan, came up with the idea for the series when his children were young. At bedtime, the family would take props from the bedroom to create scenes, and tell stories. Some of which feature a rabbit donning a cybersuit, combatting dinosaurs on a planet with volcanoes.[16]
During the Disney Junior Fun Fest event at Disney California Adventure on April 29, 2022, four new shows were announced to air on Disney Junior, with RoboGobo being one of them.[17] The cast for the show was later announced on August 18, 2023. [5][18]
