Development

In November 2014, CBS gave a production commitment to Sneaky Pete.[4] A formal pilot for the show was shot in New York in March 2015.[5] On May 8, CBS decided to pass on the pilot, while also canceling Vince Gilligan and David Shore's other series on the network, Battle Creek.[6] Just two days later, it was reported that the pilot might be moving to cable networks, with many expressing interest.[7]

In June, it was reported that Amazon was in negotiations to pick up the pilot, with some tweaking and possible minor reshoots before being made available to the viewers.[8] The pilot was released on Amazon on August 7, 2015 and was ordered to series on September 2, 2015.[9]

In March 2016, it was announced that Shore would be leaving the project, and would be replaced by Graham Yost, who would be taking over as executive producer and showrunner. Start of production of the full series was pushed back to allow for the transition.[2]

Episode 2 and the remainder of the series premiered on January 13, 2017.[3]
