Doc McStuffins is an American animated children's television series created by Chris Nee. It was produced and released by Brown Bag Films. It was aired on Disney Junior from March 23, 2012, to April 18, 2020.[1] The series centers on a girl who can "fix" toys, with help from her toy friends. It features songs written and composed by Kay Hanley and Michelle Lewis.
The series received positive reviews due to the series' concept and the main character, as well as its portrayal of African Americans (Nee stated in 2013 that Doc is African American, as proposed by Disney during her initial pitch, Nee initially only knowing she wanted a girl doctor[2][3]) in a Disney series.[3][4] Nee conceived the series as Cheers for preschoolers.[5]
On November 16, 2016, Disney Junior renewed the series for a fifth season.[6] On April 4, 2018, Lara Jill Miller, the voice of Lambie, stated that the series finale had been recorded and would premiere on April 18, 2020, ending the series' original run after five seasons, and there were no plans for the show to have a sixth season. Since the show ended, reruns continue to air on Disney Junior both locally and globally,[1] as well as the show itself being made available on DisneyNOW and Disney+.[7] On February 7, 2022, it was announced that the series would be celebrating its 10th anniversary in the form of an animated musical special, which was premiered on August 26, 2022.[8][9][10]

I just thought that nobody needs another male doctor or another male leader in a group. What we needed was a female character. And Disney, in the first conversation that we had after they bought the pitch said, "We've been looking for a good character to bring some ethnicity into them, how do you feel if she's African American?"

It was Disney that suggested, in your first pitch meeting, that Doc, her doctor mother, and her stay-at-home dad be African American.
