Review: Pig Goat Banana Cricket “Total Bananarchy”

 

 

Spoilers Below

Pig makes a wish for his birthday and it leads to chaos. Pig’s the President of the Planet for the next 24 hours and he orders everyone to eat pickles for every meal which just causes the town population to be sick. His next rule is for everyone to speak in tongue twisters which is even more of a pain. Another rule put into place is for everyone to pet bunnies, but they turn into demonic creatures that terrorize everyone. Finally, Pig throws in a ‘no rules’ rule, and it causes mass chaos.

Banana gets a bodyguard in the form of Shragger especially after Ranger Rhino starts shit. Eventually, Banana insults Shragger which causes a rift between the two, but when Ranger Rhino starts picking on Shragger, Banana steps in and evens the odds.

Goat creates a sculpture for Pig’s birthday after the birthday boy complains about his rules messing everything up. Goat ends up buying a bunch of butter for the sculpture, but when the Pancake Gang shows up, a chase ensues. Fortunately, the Waffle Mafia enters the fray and starts fighting the Pancake Gang. Goat finds a gun, and cleans house. She heads to the palace with Pig’s butter sculpture.

Cricket seeks peace on Mars because they have a more organized society. This after his lab is destroyed by riots, so Cricket lands on Mars and makes friends with the locals. Apparently, Cricket overstays his welcome after breaking a bunch of ridiculous rules like eating carrots on Tuesday and constantly saying the word “What”. To top it all off, Cricket shits in the Emperor’s mouth which is the biggest rule of them all, and as such, the Emperor declares war on Earth. Cricket heads back to Earth to let Pig know of what went down.

Goat wants to take the fight to the Martians, but instead Pig decides to throw a toilet party in space. The Emperor is pleased and cancels the war, but not before blowing up Earth.

Our Take

Best episode of the season so far despite that again Nickelodeon is editing out shit they deem not cool for their audience. In the world of streaming services that don’t give a shit either way, Nick still plays by a book that was written in 1995.

Fortunately, Pig Goat Banana Cricket was really good…best part? Cricket’s play by play while shitting. Holy hell was that funny, just as poo humor should be. Pig’s rules were well done, too, and if up to me, I’d eat a bunch of pickles. The demon bunnies were so good I wish they were more of a nuisance, but I’ll settle for the toilet party.
