Production notes
This series was released simultaneously in Gaelic. The Irish title of the series was "Muca Beal Dorais."
Twenty-six episodes are planned.
The Stymingtons are a typical suburban family- except for just one thing: they are pigs!
Pink and proud, Phil wants to become a social pioneer and move pigs into the 21st Century, so he packs up his porcine brood, and moves the family out from the farm and into the suburban town of Schlicter Falls.
Phil's wife Clara, an attractive sow in her mid-30s, has misgivings about their move, but she quickly begins to enjoy the temptations and diversions of the city. Fourteen-year-old Chuckie is like any kid of his age: he's into music, video games and action movies... but, unlike other kids, he's a pig and faces the unique challenge of fitting in with the crowd. Then there's April, nine years old, cute, adorable- and adamant about remaining a pig.
As society's first "Swine Citizens," the Stymingtons face challenges we all face at home... at school... and on the job.... First, there are the neighbors to contend with- and their feelings about the pigs next door just couldn't be further apart! The conservative Stumps are an uptight clan ruled by Ike Stump, a retired military man who believes that the only good pig comes sliced and served on rye bread.
Although he has a gun collection, Ike would never use violence, but he'll do anything in his power to get rid of his "oddball" neighbors!
The politically correct Crenshaw family, on the other hand, welcomes the diversity that the Stymingtons bring to the neighborhood.
On the job, Pop Phil exhibits his piggish good looks to win a starring role in the Hollywood hit "Pig in Hong Kong," while Clara ventures into a familiar arena to become the hottest wrestling sensation at the local "Mud Pit." And at school, Chuckie reaps the benefits of high school life as football's "Pig Skin Hero!" But don't think that these trendsetters have forgotten their piggy connection and traditions. Dedicated piglet April is on hand to serve frequent reminders.
