Nickelodeon Germany To Premiere "Pig Goat Banana Cricket" In October 2015

The Nickelodeon Germany fan Facebook page "Nick News" is reporting the exciting Nickelodeon International news that Nickelodeon Germany (Deutschland) will start to premiere and show Nickelodeon's brand-new original animated comedy series (NickToon) "Pig Goat Banana Cricket" weekdays from October 2015, as part of Nickelodeon Germany's Autumn (Herbst)/Winter (Winterreifen) 2015 programming highlights!


"Pig Goat Banana Cricket" follows four friends nature never intended - a pickle-obsessed Pig, a Goat with musical dreams, a Banana who loves video games and a Cricket with a crazy science lab — in Boopelite City, a gigantic, fantastical metropolis unlike anything you've seen before; where fruit can walk, animals can talk, the sidewalks are crammed with animals, robots and sea creatures, and you can find all your pickle needs at the downtown Picklemart! The quad are roommates in a treehouse, which sits in the middle of the city, surrounded by the forest, seas and everywhere else the foursome could possibly go.

From surviving a fudge-pocalypse to challenging Prince Mermeow in the underwater city of Catlantis, Pig, Goat, Banana and Cricket often find themselves in sticky situations... but wherever these four friends go, they always know where they'll end up: TOGETHER!


"Pig Goat Banana Cricket" is created by Dave Cooper and Johnny Ryan, established comic artists who worked on several issues of Nickelodeon Magazine, and executive produced by David Sacks ("The Simpsons", "Regular Show") who co-writes with J. Ryan. Dave Cooper also art directs the series and the pilot was directed by independent animator Nick Cross.

Although unconfirmed, it is expected that other Nickelodeon channels around Northern Europe will debut "Pig Goat Banana Cricket" around the same time.

When your best friends are an over-excitable frog, a lovelorn flamingo, a loyal mushroom, a team of Bond-esque bunnies and a dopey fawn, there's a shedload of fun and adventure around every plant pot!

The miniature monuments are voiced by massive household names including James McAvoy, Emily Blunt, Matt Lucas, Maggie Smith, Michael Caine, Stephen Merchant, Ashley Jensen, Jason Statham and Ozzy Osbourne to gnome a few! Featuring classic and original songs by Elton John and directed by Kelly Asbury ("Shrek 2") "Gnomeo and Juliet" is a great love story...with a very small difference.
