The Toys That Made Us is an American documentary television series created by Brian Volk-Weiss.[1] The first four episodes of the series began streaming on Netflix on December 22, 2017,[2] and the next four were released on May 25, 2018.[3] The eight-episode documentary series, as it was originally touted, focuses on the history of important toy lines. The first four episodes focus on the Star Wars, He-Man, Barbie, and G.I. Joe toy lines[4][5] with subsequent episodes featuring LEGO, Transformers, Hello Kitty, and Star Trek,[6] which aired on May 25, 2018.[7] On July 19, 2018, it was announced at San Diego Comic-Con that the show had been picked up for a third season, with episodes featuring Power Rangers, professional wrestling, My Little Pony, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and was released to Netflix on November 15, 2019.[8][9]
In November 2019, Netflix released a spin-off series, The Movies That Made Us, focusing on the development of classic films.[10] In July 2024, Nacelle announced that the show was renewed for a fourth and fifth season, with episodes featuring Superhero Toys, Nerf, Pokemon, American Greetings, Hot Wheels, Ghostbusters, Polly Pocket, and Fast Food Toys.[11][12]
