Premise
11 year old Johnny Test is a suburban boy who resides in the fictional town of Porkbelly in North America. He is often used as a test subject for his genius sisters Susan and Mary’s inventions and experiments, whether these are gadgets or superpowers. Their experiments always cause problems that Johnny and his dog Dukey must resolve and they sometimes fight villains and save the world with their inventions in the process.

In January 2020, WildBrain announced that their Vancouver studio was hiring for a new Johnny Test project separate from a planned series of new Johnny Test web shorts (the first of which was released on May 2, 2020, but later made private). On May 6, 2020, WildBrain confirmed the series had been picked up by Netflix for two more seasons and a 66-minute interactive special set for release in 2021, with Fellows returning as showrunner and executive producer.{{Cite web|title=WildBrain, Netflix bring back Johnny Test|url=https://kidscreen.com/2020/05/06/wildbrain-netflix-bring-back-johnny-test/|website=Kidscreen|access-date=June 28, 2021}}{{cite web|title=Johnny Test NEW Series Trailer {{!}} Netflix Futures|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KMNyvySXocc|access-date=June 18, 2021|website=YouTube| date=18 June 2021 }} In June 2021, it was announced that most of the main cast would reprise their respective roles.{{cite web|url=https://www.celebsecrets.com/johnny-test-returns-with-a-new-season-on-netflix-this-july-watch-the-trailer/|date=June 19, 2021|access-date=July 7, 2021|title="Johnny Test" Returns with a New Season on Netflix this July|last=Ward|first=Bridget|website=Celeb Secrets}}
