Plot.
Ansi Molina moves into the Wayne, a high-rise apartment building filled with strange and unusual things labeled as "Wayne Phenomena". Being one of the few people to see Wayne Phenomena without suffering psychological repercussions, he befriends siblings Olly and Saraline Timbers as they learn the mysteries of the Wayne and protects the outside world while contending with a spy cell seeking to exploit the apartment's supernatural aspects for their own nefarious ends.
Production.
For the web series, Matt Longoria, Bobb Barito, and others who were part of Beatstreet Productions worked as sound designers for each episode and coordinating it with dialogue, even adding in sound jokes from time to time. Some of these individuals worked on the TV series. 
In April 2015, Nickelodeon ordered 20 episodes of Welcome to the Wayne, with a scheduled debut in 2016 as a TV series, after a successful web series ran in 2014.
Ego Plum was the show's music composer, while Billy Lopez, as the creator, worked with Michael Pecoriello as the executive producer. Pecoriello said that he thought the show was a "perfect fit for the Nick brand because it really does see the world through the eyes of kids." Lopez also did the theme song for the series.
Release.
In August 2014, the animation began to be released on Nick.com and other digital platforms, as a short web series, with new three-and-half minute episodes released weekly. The six-episode web series followed the adventures of two characters who would be in the main show: Olly Timbers and Ansi Molina. In July 24, 2017, the series first began airing on Nickelodeon, beginning the show's first season. Nickeledon released a companion app named "The Wayne" that allowed users to "interact with videos, online games, and photos" to explore the apartment building central to the series. Also, the series had an official Instagram account. On Nicktoons (UK and Ireland), the TV version has aired from January 15, 2018 until February 2018 as part of "Toons Afternoons", the afternoon schedule for Nicktoons UK.
Reception.
Jennifer Walden of "Post Magazine" reviewed the web series, which preceded the TV series, as having "rapid-fire jokes, action, and plot-points" that cover as much ground as an episode that is 30 minutes long. The TV series was also well-received. Emily Ashby of Common Sense Media gave the series 3 out of 5 stars; saying that, "Nonsensical, imaginative fun rules the day in this unpredictable animated series." But added that, ""Welcome to the Wayne" is best treated as a sugary-treat kind of addition to kids' media diets since the content is more about garnering laughs than it is about anything outright educational." Damon Cap of BSC Kids compared the series to "Gravity Falls", adding that, after viewing the first episode, is "a lot of potential and excitement on who this is going to turn out." Cap added that once Ansi came across the library, they knew the show would be "good" and "great to watch." Television Business International said that the series kept the "hand-drawn art style" used in the web series, while "using innovative animation techniques to create a unique visual aesthetic." Peter Jurado of ComicsVerse said that the show takes you "back to the city" like "Hey Arnold!", highlights the value of knowledge, and is unique in its own way, even though it has some similarities with "Gravity Falls", as a "new mystery with a lot of heart." Jurado also praised the return to the 22-minute format and the fact that the characters are young enough that they don't "automatically judge somebody." Librarian Burkely Hermann argued that in this series, a "special and magnificent library" is central, going beyond positive depictions in recent years, with the chief librarian as a Black woman named Clara Rhone, voiced by Harriett D. Foy. This included episodes, he wrote, where "the issues of underfunded libraries and the value of knowledge," were central, as was the focus on librarians as gatekeepers, and others which made clear the value of librarians, and libraries, as "places of knowledge and diversity."
