Disney XD announced this show back in January, and they showed off the intro at SDCC.

The show is about the Greens, a country family who move into the big city. It has a very Harvey Beaks charm and quality to it. The show premieres in 2018.
The title and concept is a reference to the classic '60s sitcom Green Acres where a city family move to the country.
Not bad. I'll keep my eye on this.
So its an animated Beverly Hillbillies. Nothing wrong with that, interested to see this since there aren't that many cartoons like this.
Premieres on Disney Channel June 18. (https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/disney-channel-renews-animated-series-big-city-greens-premiere-1112765)
The first full episode is available now on Disney Channel's YouTube.

I've also been finally getting to this one, and it's a lot of fun. It feels refreshing in a way to catch a good old-fashioned silly cartoon in between Disney's mostly serialized shows, and thankfully it's pretty entertaining.
I have to say that Tilly is my favorite character thus far. I usually find myself connecting to the weird girl, and it helps when they have a lot of optimism to her to boot. Although I was surprised to find out that Lara Jill Miller wasn't voicing her, but instead she's voiced by... Ted's nosy architecture student from HIMYM?
I was more surprised to learn that she was also in the English dub of Love Live!.
Dax, who's your favorite character? I know you're a fairly big fan, yourself.
Let's see, for the main Green Family, I like Bill for being the voice of reason, while also still going along with some of the silliness he brings upon himself. As for side/additional characters, I give it to Gloria for her for having an interesting character dynamic with Cricket, especially in episodes where she was planning to move back with her parents, the coffee beans episode, the one where Cricket cons her into getting into a pyramid scheme.
Ah neat. I'm not that far with Gloria yet- where I'm at, Cricket only just started working at the coffee shop- so I don't have much of an opinion on her yet, other than how I can understand her frustration. And I do like Bill. One of my favorite things in series is to see what traits siblings get from their parents, so I like how he balances out Tilly's sense of order with Cricket's wonder; conversely making Cricket's spunk and Tilly's demonic side seem like all them.
