Dive Into Riley’s Dream-scape in Dream Productions
After the trailblazing success of Inside Out 2, Pixar delves into the intricate spaces of Riley’s brain again with its new show on Disney+, Dream Productions. This limited four-episode series takes us on an enchanted journey inside Riley’s mind, queuing up the dreams for her slumber. If you loved Inside Out 2, this one’s going to have you hooked!
At the helm of Dream Productions is Paula Persimmon, voiced by Paula Pell. Paula’s job might seem fascinating, but it’s certainly not without its challenges. Dream-making isn’t just about sparkles and unicorns anymore. As Riley is growing up, producing dreams involves more than just the frills.
We also meet the dynamic director Xeni, voiced by Richard Ayoade. Xeni might have his ways around daydreams, but the world of dreams is a new terrain for him. His confidence, though, is not hampered. Together, with their opposing perspectives on Riley’s dream-psychology, Paula and Xeni strive to craft the ideal tween dreams. It’s rollercoaster ride of imagination, teamwork, and lots of glitter!
Dream Productions also stars the voices of celebrated artists like Amy Poehler, Maya Rudolph, Tony Hale, Liza Lapira, Ally Maki, Phyllis Smith, Lewis Black, and Kensington Tallman.

Now, switching gears from dream-scaping to softball playing, Pixar introduces us to the Pickles, a co-ed middle school softball team, in their first original long-form series Win or Lose.
In the week leading up to the championship game, the series uncovers the layers of every player, their parents, even the umpire. It’s not only about winning or losing, but also about an array of endearingly funny, emotionally poignant off-field moments.
