A sketch featuring Bell and Peck arguing over a piece of shrimp prompted network executives to cast the two actors in their own spin off, Drake & Josh. The series premiered on January 11, 2004, on Nickelodeon to critical acclaim. During production of the fourth season, Bell was injured during a car accident, and filming stalled for four months during his recovery.

The series revolves around two teenage stepbrothers, Drake Parker and Josh Nichols, who live in San Diego, California, with Drake's younger biological sister Megan and biological mother Audrey, and Josh's biological father Walter. Drake is cool and charismatic, having his own band and being popular with girls, yet can be narcissistic and absent minded, while Josh is intellectual, clumsy, and awkward; yet very loving and caring. Josh starts working at a local movie theater in the second season, which becomes a key set location for the rest of the series.

The two boys are often involved in comedic escapades and challenges while handling various teenage problems.

Drake Bell and Josh Peck had previously acted together on The Amanda Show, created by Dan Schneider. Bell and Peck's differing personalities inspired Schneider to create a new show starring them as characters with traits similar to their own. An unaired pilot episode featured Stephen Furst as Walter Nichols, although he was busy with another project when Drake & Josh was picked up as a series, and Jonathan Goldstein was cast in the role instead. A house in Los Angeles' Encino neighborhood was used for exterior shots of the family's home, while interior scenes were shot on a sound stage at the Nickelodeon on Sunset studios in Hollywood. Tribune Studios in Hollywood was also used as a filming location. Production was suspended in late December 2005, after Bell's injury in a car crash, prior to which he had filmed three episodes of the fourth season. Bell's accident was the result of a driver falling asleep at the wheel and colliding head on with Bell's 1966 Mustang, which had no seat belts or airbags, resulting in extensive facial injuries. Filming resumed in March 2006 The following month, Nickelodeon greenlit an additional seven episodes for the fourth season, and Bell and Peck signed on to direct several episodes. According to Schneider, the show ended due to a collective decision from the creative forces behind the show. Nickelodeon's highest rated series premiere in nearly 10 years. As of 2006, Drake & Josh ranked consistently among the 10 most watched cable shows of the week, According to Schneider, Drake & Josh had its highest ratings in its final season.

Beginning in December 2016, Bell and other cast members released a series of short online videos titled Where's Walter? Bell, Sullivan, and Yvette Nicole Brown reprised their roles for the videos, which involve a search for Walter after he goes missing.

In March 2019, Bell announced that he and Peck were working on a Drake & Josh revival that would feature both of them reprising their roles. The proposed project would have featured similar characters and scenarios in a more adult, comedic way. At the time, Bell and Peck were in discussions with several networks about the project. In October 2021, it was reported that the revival had been cancelled, as a result of production delays and Bell's guilty plea to charges of attempted child endangerment. In March 2022, Bell and his wife Janet stated that the reboot show they had pitched would be called Josh & Drake. Ultimately, the idea was shelved due to creative differences. The show's script was said to have been written by Peck. Janet stated, "Josh wrote Drake as a failed musician and Josh wrote himself as a real estate agent. OK, that's fine, but Drake is a musician in real life, so it wouldn't make sense." Bell added, "I just asked him to change a couple things and he couldn't and my wife wouldn't let me do it." In March 2023, Cosgrove told E! News "nothing's off the table" in regards to a possible revival.
