Rizzo. The series was one of several shows pitched to Adult Swim, according to the creators, who also operate under the name `` Day by Day ''. Stewart recalled promoting it as a `` one - line sentence '', while Carsola remembered that it derived from a `` write - off '' session, where the two present ideas to each other in the form of scribbles for their amusement. Carsola explained that ideas in this process are released from the pressure `` of them being good '', occasionally finding `` one that sticks ''. They later explained at the 2014 San Diego Comic - Con International that the idea was based on Lassie, but has become `` more of its own thing since then ''. Stewart 's own female pet dog served as inspiration for the animators on the character of Mr. Pickles. Animation director Mike L. Mayfield recorded Stewart 's dog playing around on video, with animators using the resulting footage as a basis for the character 's movements ; the series is animated using Adobe Flash. Its setting is roughly based on Richmond, Virginia, where the creators started out in entertainment before moving to Los Angeles. The creators are given creative freedom by the network, with Stewart explaining the notes received by them as `` minimal '', much to their surprise. The creators observed some inconsistencies as to what is considered unacceptable, but try not to question it and compromise instead. Elaborating on its 11 - minute running time, Carsola described it as a 22 - minute show `` squished '' into a quarter - hour. Among the voices for the characters include Brooke Shields, Frank Collison, Jay Johnston and Carsola and Stewart themselves. Shields ' role in the series came after looking at the creator 's work for Funny or Die and obtaining the script for Mr. Pickles. According to Carsola, the two were dubious over her interest in the series, but after being cast she provided lines in a recording booth in New York City while the creators supervised over Skype.

In July 2013, the pilot episode was released online as part of a presentation of in - development shows for the network, partnered with KFC ; viewers could vote for their favorite pilot, with the winner being broadcast on August 26, 2013. The series lost to Übermansion, a Stoopid Buddy Stoodios production, although the presentation as a whole won an Internet Advertising Campaign Award in 2014 for `` Best TV Integrated Ad Campaign ''. The pilot was later published on the network 's website on January 23, 2014, and on YouTube on March 10 of the same year, becoming viral with over 700,000 views after roughly a month later. A second season was mentioned at the 2014 Comic - Con. Reception for Mr. Pickles has been polarized. Writing for Strange Kids Club, Mat Spitkovsky stated the series ' extreme content matter left him at a loss for words as well as confused. Afterwards, he found it lacking in `` class, creativity and goddammit, originality '' in the vein of Superjail !, although its `` brazen approach at crass offense... all in good fun '' was `` kind of cool. '' Aaron Simpson of Cold Hard Flash called the series an amalgamation of Lassie and Superjail !, while observing some social commentary `` to ensure this is more than just a multi-episodic sketch. '' Mike Hale of The New York Times labeled it `` the less tasteful but more mainstream '' counterpart to Tim & Eric 's Bedtime Stories, another addition to the network. He wrote that the show was `` more grisly than funny, '' but predicted it to have a cult following and that Shields ' voice would add `` surreal - pop - culture cachet ''. In Australia, the series premiered on August 3, 2015 on The Comedy Channel. In April 2017, a trailer was released promoting the season 3 premiere to air in fall 2017 ; however, this was later pushed back, for unknown reasons, to the following year. The first episode of season three premiered on February 25, 2018.. The show was renewed for a fourth season, before the third one even premiered.
