Synopsis
"BG" stands for "Big Girl" and her full name is Bella Gloria Baxter. The main character of the series, Miss BG, is a girl of 7 according to Telefilm Canada, although Breakthrough Animation gives her age as 8.[citation needed] Her brother George, who has a very active personality, dotes on his pet hamster Albert and likes a TV show called Fishy the Fish. Miss BG likes to hang out in a tree house with her best friends, Gad and Alex. Gad's father, Mr. Mansour, owns the neighborhood market while Alex's older brother Robbie is a teenager who often lends a hand when the children need the aid of an older person, escorts them to and from school plus generally chaperones them when they are out and about.
Other characters in the series include Brittany-Ann who is a wealthy rival of BG, and Kayla, Brittany-Ann's best friend; Billy, a boastful, athletic boy who is 9 and has a crush on Brittany-Ann, Terry, a teenage girl who often babysits Miss BG and George, and Alice, her aunt. Ouma is Gad's Grandmother who lives with his family.
The series currently[when?] airs on TVO-KIDS in Canada, Qubo in the United States, Cartoonito in the UK, ABC1 in Australia, Barnkanalen in Sweden and RTE Two's The Den in Ireland
