Trivia

This is the second Disney TV animated series to be based on a Pixar feature film or franchise, after Buzz Lightyear of Star Command (not counting any shorts series or ABC bumpers).
This show was originally supposed to premiere in 2020, but it was delayed until 2021 to line up with the 20th anniversary of Monsters, Inc.
The series marks the return of Celia Mae, 20 years after the release of Monsters, Inc. In addition, Jennifer Tilly reprises her role.
Needleman and Smitty return in the series. However, due to the death of Daniel Gerson in 2016, Stephen Stanton took over the roles.
It is confirmed that Boo will not be appearing in the series since it is set before the epilogue of the original movie. However, she has been mentioned in the episodes The Damaged Room and It's Laughter They're After. Though in other words, Boo may get reconsidered to appear in the series rejoining Sulley in Season 2. https://dailyresearchplot.com/2021/09/03/monsters-at-work-season-2-everthing-we-know-abut-its-release-date-and-otehr-info/
The series won't have Randall returning because he got banned from the monster world to the human world, which would make it harder for his return.
Henry Winkler has replied to a fan on Twitter saying that there's going to be a Season 2.
