[7] Screenwriter Alexandre de Seguins met Jean-Sébastien Bouilloux, working for producer Jean-Luc Azoulay; the pilot was accepted for broadcast on France 2, replacing the series Caïn.

After bringing together five million viewers in April the evening of the pilot's broadcast (20.7% PDA), Astrid and Raphaëlle obtained the green light from France 2 for a season 1 consisting of six 52-minute episodes".

Guest actors included Pierre Palmade, Hubert Delattre, Alysson Paradis, Gérard Majax, Ingrid Juveneton, Kentaro, and Richard Gotainer.

[12] Filming for the first four episodes of Season 3 took place from 30 August to 28 October 2021, with guest actors Valérie Kaprisky, Stéphane Guillon, Bruno Wolkowitch, and Michaël Cohen.

[20] During the broadcast of the pilot, the Belgian magazine Moustique noted a strong resemblance to the American series The Good Doctor: "Like Shawn Murphy, Astrid is going through a difficult family situation but can count on the help of her tutor.

The journalist considers the gamble rather successful: "Without avoiding all the pitfalls, the series really holds up and manages to treat Astrid's autism only as an element and not a definition of the young woman".

[22] According to one of the writers, Alexandre de Seguins, Astrid, whom he wants as far as possible from the cliché autistic genius, is inspired by the works of Temple Grandin, which revealed to him "the elements of her way of seeing the world, the difficulties of everyday life".

[24] The series has funding from PBS and Beta Film and stars Laura Fraser in the Raphaelle part and Ella Maisy Purvis, who is autistic, in the Astrid role.
