The half-hour animated series was first greenlit in August 2022. It features Rock, who narrates stories inspired by his experiences growing up in a large working-class family in Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn, during the late 1980s. Crews and Arnold return as Chris’ parents, Julius and Rochelle.

Everybody Hates Chris won an NAACP Image Award for its writing in 2007 and was nominated for a Golden Globe and several Emmy Awards.
Rock executive produces with Sanjay Shah (King of the Hill, South Park, Central Park), who will also serve as showrunner, and Ali LeRoi, Michael Rotenberg, and Dave Becky. CBS Studios and 3 Arts Entertainment produce the series.
Everybody Still Hates Chris premieres on Comedy Central later this year, and streams on Paramount+ at a later date.
