A seventh season of the series premiered on August 12, 2018.
In an interview with Nick Jr., Wells has said in her defense about Max and Ruby's unseen parents that 'we don't see Max and Ruby's parents, because [she] believe[s] that kids resolve their issues and conflicts differently when they are on their own. The television series gives kids a sense about how these two siblings resolve their conflicts in a humorous and entertaining way.'[5] However, in Seasons 6 and 7, the series finally introduced Max and Ruby's parents.[17]
