Premise After losing his farm in the country town of Smalton, Bill Green and his two children, Cricket and Tilly, move in with his mother, Alice Green (Gramma), who lives on a small farm holdout in the middle of a bustling, fictional city known as "Big City".

Major recurring characters include Cricket's friend Remy Remington and café worker Gloria Sato.

By the second half of season three, Bill moves his family back to Smalton after regaining his farm. Starting in season four, Cricket, Tilly, and Bill balance between going back and forth from Big City to Smalton, where Nancy, Bill's ex-wife and the mother of Cricket and Tilly, manages the farm.

Episodes

Characters

Main Cricket Green (voiced by Chris Houghton) is a 10-year-old troublemaking and mischievous country boy who is always barefoot. His middle name comes from his late paternal grandfather. He is fascinated by every discovery he makes in Big City, but never knows what he might uncover. His naive, reckless, impulsive, troublesome, and hyperactive nature often lead him to cause conflicts for his family and throughout the city, but he is fundamentally a good-natured person; his actions are often as entirely self-serving as they are a misguided attempt to help his friends, family and others with their problems, and if those around him are blunt enough about his unpleasant moments, he will more than likely learn from them and not make the same mistake twice. He gets a job at Big Coffee in "Critterball Crisis" until it closed in "Chipwrecked". Later, he worked as a delivery boy at the Gloria + Green Café in the early episodes of Season 3, until his family moved back to Smalton in "The Move". In "Gloria Green", he works at the café for free. Tilly Green (voiced by Marieve Herington) is Cricket's older sister, with an eccentric and imaginative nature. She is frequently accompanied by Saxon, a homemade doll Tilly created out of an old sack. She is normally very cheerful, incredibly kind, and a pacifist by nature, though she has moments of selfishness, like her younger brother; this was shown in the episode "Mama Bird" when she was angry and jealous because the birds didn't show any affection towards her and instead favored Cricket. With that said, she is usually pleasant to be around. Billiam Robert "Bill" Green (voiced by Bob Joles as an adult, Andre Robinson as a child) is Cricket and Tilly's father and Gramma Alice's son. A skilled farmer, Bill is overprotective, cautious, and slightly forgetful, having lost part of a finger because of a hay baler accident, but competent all the same. It is later revealed that his full name is Billiam Robert Green. Alice Delores Green, often referred to as Gramma Alice (voiced by Artemis Pebdani), is Bill's cantankerous and combative mother and Cricket and Tilly's paternal grandmother, who owns the Green family farm in Big City. She frequently exhibits this behavior to hide her love and affection for her family. Remy Remington (voiced by Zeno Robinson) is Cricket's best friend, whom he meets shortly after moving to Big City. He comes from a rich family – being optimistic and fun-loving, but he also struggles with his self-confidence. He later tags along with the Greens in their move back to Smalton. Nancy Green (née Mulligan; voiced by Wendi McLendon-Covey as an adult, Candace Kozak as a child) is Cricket and Tilly's mother and Bill's ex-wife. A former biker with a rebellious streak, she was briefly incarcerated for trying to free cows from a factory before being released after the family moved to Big City. While they are divorced, she and Bill remain good friends and she is a frequent presence in the children's lives. Nancy even moves with the family when they buy their farm in Smalton back and continues to run the farm when they return to Big City even when her father moves in. Gloria Sato (voiced by Anna Akana) is the former barista at Big Coffee, who becomes friends and co-workers with Cricket. She dreams of one day saving up enough money to leave Big City and move to Paris. After "Chipocalypse Now", Gloria, who lost her Big Coffee job, gets evicted from her apartment and moves in with the Greens. In the Season 2 finale, "Gloria's Cafe" she and the Greens open the Gloria + Green Café. In season five, Gloria moves into the apartment complex that's next door to the greens. Chip Whistler (voiced by Paul Scheer) is the main antagonist of the series, the Green family's rival, and manager of the Wholesome Foods supermarket, a parody of Whole Foods Market. A running gag is that his attempts to defeat the Greens usually end with his front tooth chipped and a whistling noise coming out through it whenever he speaks (except for "Friend Con" in which all his other teeth fell out instead, and "Evil Family" where it does not happen), ironically making his name a descriptor. His front tooth would always be repaired by his next appearance. While having been launched out of Big City in his helicopter in season two with Mayor Hansock banishing him, he was thought to be dead until season four where he was revealed to have used the alias of "Norm Alguy". After that brief tenure, he began his plans to have his revenge on the Greens and Big City. He and allies enacted his plans to frame the Greens for ruining Big City. After Chip was defeated by Cricket with his teeth coming out, he and his allies were arrested by Officer Keys and the rest of the Big City Police Department. He was given a triple life sentence in prison.
