Cast

Matt Jones as Pig, a pig who eats pickles every day and always messes up Cricket's lab. He's "the fool"
Candi Milo as Goat, a goat who wants to be a singer and also "the artist". Cricket is (secretly) in love with her. Her instrument is a guitar.
Tom Wilson as Banana, a living banana who's park ranger as his job. However, he plays games all day long, making him "the wise-guy".
Paul Rugg as Cricket, a cricket who's also a scientist. He's "the brain".

Production

Pig Goat Banana Cricket was created by Dave Cooper and Johnny Ryan for Nickelodeon. The show is based on their comic from Nickelodeon Magazine published in 2004. Cooper and Ryan are both veteran comic book artists; the show was described as their first big endeavor for television, though the former had been used for his design work on Futurama.

Developed from Pig Goat Banana Mantis!, a pilot directed by the independent animator Nick Cross, the stories were described by Ryan as difficult to write, given their intertwined nature and the 11-minute running time. This process was smoothened by the running time being doubled and the direction from the network being clarified. The two had to adjust to the studio environment, and described their career in comics as preparing them for production. Jones, Milo, and Wilson are set to reprise their roles from the original short, with Mantis, who had been previously voiced by James Urbaniak, retooled as Cricket due to a character of the same name in Kung Fu Panda: Legends of Awesomeness.

According to Candi Milo's Twitter page, the show has been renewed for a second season since the show's premiere.^[2]
