The series follows Snapchat's recent attempts at expanding the creative boundaries of the social media platform. In 2018, Snapchat announced that it would be producing a slate of original programming, called Snap Originals, consisting of both scripted and reality series, The Verge reported at the time. These shows are featured under the app's Discover tab.
By 2019, Snapchat also launched Creator Shows, mini first-person narratives hosted by people like former California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and reality TV personality Spencer Pratt. Thompson also hosted his own Creator Show, Trend or End with Rickey Thompson, which launched last summer. Per IMDb, Thompson acts as "the judge, jury, and executioner of all things fashion and lifestyle in this Snapchat series."
