The Green family is set to celebrate the season in a new digital way, taking their adventures into the virtual world for their upcoming Christmas episode of Big City Greens.
What’s Happening:
- Big City Greens is set to unveil a new episode for the holidays, which was previously teased at New York Comic Con recently.
- The new episode will reportedly take the Green family (and Remy!) into a VR world to celebrate the season together. There, they will encounter numerous obstacles and perhaps a boss level or two.
- The animation of the series is set to launch to a whole new level with this, with fully rendered 3D characters. This isn’t the first time Big City Greens has ventured into this kind of territory. In Season 2’s “Level Up,” we see Bill get addicted to a farm simulator game, continuously playing to a point where the whole family has to save him from the game, and the episode unfolds as though we were watching the family play on their console.
- Set to be released on December 3rd, 2022, “Virtually Christmas” See Cricket gets snowed in at the Remingtons’ on Christmas Eve, where he attempts to recreate his family’s Christmas Eve traditions in a virtual reality video game. The episode is also set to guest star Alfonso Ribeiro (The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air) as a virtual reality video game character, Mr. Extras.
- Big City Greens is influenced by creator Chris and Shane Houghton’s childhood in the small rural town of St. Johns, Michigan, with locations and characters inspired by their real-life family members and townsfolk and their experiences upon departing rural farmland for college in big cities. The series originally premiered back in 2018, and in 2021, the Houghtons entered into an overall deal at Disney Television Animation.
- Big City Greens stars Chris Houghton as Cricket Green, Artemis Pebdani (Scandal) as Gramma Alice, Marieve Herington (How I Met Your Mother) as Tilly Green and Bob Joles (Puss in Boots) as Bill Green.
- Big City Greens’ episode “Virtually Christmas” arrives on Saturday, Dec. 3, at 9:00 a.m. EST on Disney Channel and Monday, Dec. 5, at 8:00 p.m. EST on Disney XD.
