## Production

SuperMansion began life as a 12-minute pilot for Adult Swim, under the original name Übermansion where, along with several other pilots (including King Star King and Mr. Pickles, both of which were eventually greenlit), it competed for which pilot would be turned into Adult Swim's next series. The pilot won and aired (along with the pilots to King Star King and Mr. Pickles) on August 25, 2013. For unknown reasons, the series moved to Crackle instead with the name change from Übermansion to SuperMansion.
On April 14, 2015, Sony announced that the stop-motion animated series was being developed by Crackle, which Bryan Cranston would voice and executive produce with his Moon Shot Entertainment. Thirteen episodes were being produced, and also starring Seth Green, Keegan-Michael Key, and Jillian Bell. Matthew Senreich and Zeb Wells wrote and would executive produce the series, while other executive producers would be Green, John Harvatine IV, Eric Towner, and James Degus, while Stoopid Buddy Stoodios would produce. The first trailer was released on July 9, 2015, and the other cast included Senreich, Wells, Heidi Gardner, Tom Root, Tucker Gilmore and some other guest stars.
For the show's second season, Arby's signed a product placement deal with the series as part of a broader deal with Crackle. In addition, Arby's was shown to be next door to the abandoned pizza restaurant which the Injustice Club uses as their hideout.
