Higglytown Heroes is an American CGI-animated children's television series created by George Evelyn, Holly Huckins, Denis Morella, Kent Redeker, and Jeff Ulin. Produced by Wild Brain and Happy Nest, the series aired on the Playhouse Disney block on Disney Channel in the United States. The show's characters are shaped like Russian nesting dolls. In the show, four children Eubie, Wayne, Twinkle, Kip, and their best friend, Fran the Squirrel, learn about all of the important jobs that people do in Higglytown.[2] 65 episodes were produced.[3]

The theme song of the show, Here in Higglytown, is performed by They Might Be Giants, which was also released on their second children's album Here Come the ABCs. After its series finale originally aired on January 7, 2008, reruns aired on Playhouse Disney until March 29, 2009. Disney Junior (the channel) then aired it in reruns from March 23, 2012 until May 16, 2014. The show was added to Disney+ in April 2021. The Higglytown Heroes TV series was made using Alias Maya which was used to design models and textures for the 3D characters, and Photoshop which was used to create the 2D backgrounds and props.[4]

Plot

Each episode focuses primarily on different occupations and the problems that they solve; the characters with these occupations are referred to as "Heroes", due to both the work they do every day, as well as how they assist the characters with resolving conflicts. As the show is a musical, there are at least two songs every episode, relating to both the conflict and the Hero. Sometimes, Heroes may return in later episodes to assist the other characters, in order to demonstrate both effective teamwork, as well as how interconnected each occupation is within everyday life.

Characters

  • Eubie (voiced by Taylor Masamitsu) is the oldest of the gang. He lives with his aunt, uncle and their pet parrots. He is kind and gentle and always finds the brighter side of any minor situation.
  • Wayne (voiced by Frankie Ryan Manriquez) is Twinkle's older brother. He has an obsession with toast and sometimes he is dramatic in a situation.
  • Twinkle (voiced by Liliana Mumy) is Wayne's younger sister. She tends to think of grand ideas that are usually shot down by Fran. She loves ballet dancing and she is the most artistic of the gang.
  • Kip (voiced by Rory Thost) is the youngest of the gang. He is very spontaneous and full of energy. His catchphrase is "Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go, let's go, let's go!".
  • Fran (voiced by Edie McClurg) is an adult red squirrel and is the neighbour of Kip. She usually acts as a chaperone for the kids. She is the only animal in the gang. Generally, she is sitting or standing up on Kip's head.

Miss Fern explains to the kids in kindergarten how inventions came around. People have always needed something urgently and that's why they've become inventive. Of course, the Higgly kids all want to invent something immediately, but Wayne is unhappy. No matter what he invents, it's already been invented. By chance, he invents a new toast creation at lunch. The next day he takes toast with banana on raisins for all the kids at kindergarten. It tastes so good, that they eat all toasts! But oh dear, Wayne doesn't have lunch now! His friends offer to share their break with him, but nobody has a toast with them. What are they supposed to do now? How good that the lunch lady comes to the rescue!

Kip's twin sisters, Wiki and Tini, who go to school for older children, take part in a spelling bee. Ms. Fern decides to go with the kids to watch. But then Five Higgly-friends get lost in the big school.
