In November 2008, casting was announced for the pilot, with production following that fall.

Richard Gibbs, who is credited for the original music in the 1999 movie, also composed the theme music for the pilot.
In addition, Larry Miller reprises his role as the overprotective father, Walter Stratford.
The pilot was shot at a high school in Tujunga, California.
Due to budget constraints, future episodes were filmed at a soundstage in Santa Clarita, California, with only occasional external shots in Tujunga.
