Plot Synopsis

This half-hour animated series interweaves stories of a Pig (the fool), a Goat (the artist), a Banana (the wise-guy) and a Cricket (the brain), as four friends and roommates who live in a fantastical city where just about anything comes to life. PIG GOAT BANANA CRICKET is set in Boopelite City, a gigantic and whirring metropolis where many of the buildings look like archaic clockworks. The streets are constantly teeming with characters of intensely varied description, and the sidewalks are crammed with animals, robots, walking fruit, sea creatures, and more. The four roommates live in a treehouse, which sits in the middle of the city, surrounded by the forest, the seas and everywhere else the friends could possibly go. Two days before the show's official series premiere, Nickelodeon debuted a sneak-peek episode on Thursday, July 16, 2015 at 9:30pm ET/PT, immediately following KIDS SPORTS CHOICE 2015. In this special preview episode, "Pig Goat Banana Cricket High Five!," Pig's errand to go pickle shopping culminates in an unexpected friendship with a shopping cart and a mad pursuit across town by the merciless Shragger. All the while, Goat struggles to sing her catchy new song, and Banana's job is on the line after he loses his entire troop...again. Meanwhile, Cricket's beauty goo experiment beautifies the planet so well that a passing comet's passionate kisses may just cause the end of the world. Then, on Saturday, July 18, 2015 at 10:30am ET/PT, Nickelodeon aired the official series premiere. In the debut episode, "Fudge-pocalypse," Goat wishes for a bubble made out of fudge and between Cricket's super genius inventing skills and Pig's desire to help, the result is an out-of-control fudge-bubble making machine that engulfs the world in gooey fudge bubbles. Meanwhile, Banana gets kidnapped by pirates on the high fudgy seas. The four friends have to brave strange perils and rely on each other to survive the Fudge-pocalypse.
