It was conceived, written and hosted by Russell Brand, with the help of his comic partner for many projects, Matt Morgan. The series was shown on the now defunct digital satellite channel UK Play in 2002. As confirmed in his memoirs ''My Booky Wook'' and mentioned on his radio shows, Brand was often drunk or on heroin during the filming of ''RE:Brand''.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/tv/2023/09/18/russell-brand-documentary-rebrand-tv-show-red-flags/|title=The forgotten TV show that warned us about Russell Brand|website=The Daily Telegraph|date=18 September 2023|first=Michael|last=Hogan|access-date=22 September 2023}}</ref>
