The PJs
*The PJs* is an American stop-motion animated television series created by Eddie Murphy, Larry Wilmore, and Steve Tompkins. The show depicted life in an urban public housing project, inspired by the Brewster-Douglass housing projects in Detroit, which had previously been home to Diana Ross and Lily Tomlin. The series starred Eddie Murphy and was produced by Imagine Entertainment (Ron Howard and Brian Grazer), The Murphy Company, and Will Vinton Studios, in association with Touchstone Television and Warner Bros. Television. The original series premiere aired on Fox on Sunday, January 10, 1999, in a time slot following a divisional conference football playoff game. Two days later, the second episode aired in the show's regular Tuesday night time slot, following *King of the Hill*.

Did you or a loved one work on The PJs?
Every stage matters — pitch decks and treatments from development, location scouts and table-reads from pre-production, set photos and crew anecdotes from production, edit-bay notes from post, and press kits, festival memories, or marketing ephemera from distribution. Any moment that didn't make the press tour, any document or photograph that's been sitting in a box — please share it so it's not lost to time.
We particularly welcome contributions from writers, producers, cast, crew, festival programmers, distributors, marketing teams, their families, and anyone who was there at any stage.
