Chip Whistler is the main antagonist of Big City Greens. He is the CEO of Wholesome Foods, formerly the manager until his father Mr. Whistler gave him the position. Following the events of "Chipocalypse Now", he is permanently banned from Big City, and most likely has been revoked from his position of CEO of Wholesome Foods.
Chip was known for a highly-publicized feud with local boy Cricket Green, which eventually escalated to an all-out turf war at West Elkins Street that saw him slung away in his helicopter. He was reported dead afterward, but survived and returned to Big City, under the guise of a Norm Alguy. However, he soon grew tired of it and decided to go back to his evil ways, getting a family together in one last attempt to end the Green bloodline - and Big City as a whole - once and for all.
While he got close to finally achieving his dream of total domination over the family and city he was wronged by, his hubris became his very own downfall as he, intending to kill the boy who ruined his life, choked at the very last moment, and he soon saw himself and his evil family imprisoned for three life sentences.
Appearance
Physical
Chip is a tall and slender man who has blond hair with dark brown on sides shaven off. He has a sharp, pointed goatee. He has persimmon skin. On his Big Coffee takeover appearance, his goatee is gone. He currently has a scar over his right eye.
As per a running gag and hence his name, Chip has suffered several consequences with his teeth:
- Chip had one chipped tooth after taking a bite out of Cricket’s fake apple ("Supermarket Scandal". He has replaced this tooth since then with a composite resin.
- The next incident involving Chip's teeth is when the same replaced one burns off due to the extreme heat of the Sultan Pepper ("Feud Fight") Chip then replaces it With an indestructible bonded polymer.
- This replacement breaks off due to Gloria kicking the bag of coffee beans into Chip's face (the tooth was "toxic, but worth it"; "Coffee Quest"), Chip hoping this is the last time, replaces the fallen tooth with a permanent platinum/titanium tooth ("Reckoning Ball").
- This however chips in "Chipwrecked" due to falling off a building into a hot dog cart and then having a billboard crush him.
- After the rest of his teeth are broken in "Friend Con", he replaced all his teeth with titanium teeth, though this isn't shown after he chips his original tooth in the episode "Chipwrecked". Most of his appearances with this set of teeth depict him with regular teeth for an unknown reason. This set of teeth chips once again in "Chipocalypse Now".
- In "Chipped Off", he purposely destroys his tooth as a symbol of being his true self.
- In "No Escape", he breaks a screen, which proceeds to hit him, knocking a second tooth out.
- In "Chip's Revenge", he trips on Cricket's tooth fragments and hits the side of his metal statue, breaking all his teeth.
The only times his teeth do not break were "Evil Family" and "One Hundred".
Attire
Prior to becoming CEO, Chip wore a light teal green shirt and khaki pants, with dark brown sandals and an anklet on the left calf of his leg, a single wireless earbud in his left ear, and sunglasses on the top of his head. He also wears this briefly in "Chipped Off" in flashbacks.
After his ascension to CEO, he wore a grey suit with light green accents and dark brown shoes with lighter brown soles, and during his takeover of Elkins Street, he wore a black suit with a dark blue inner shirt and a golden tie and also wears a pair of dark brown shoes. Both his CEO appearances don't include his sunglasses; in his Big Coffee takeover appearance, he doesn't have his earbud.
When Chip visits "his" grave in "Long Goodbye" he wears a dark blue jacket with a dark purple hood that obscures most of his face.
As Norm Alguy, he wears a creame polo with gray khakis and brown sneakers. He also gains a pair of glasses, and gains back his tooth veneer. After he descends into the sewers, he dons a black shirt and hooded jacket, with dark red-brown pants and black sneakers. He also gains brown fingerless gloves, which he keeps in "No Escape".
During the climax of "Chip's Revenge", he wore a black suit similar to the one he wore when he was still CEO of Wholesome Foods, except the tie is red instead of golden.
Personality
Chip Whistler: scheming, surly and manipulative.
On the surface, Chip is a swindler who acts like a charming CEO, but in reality, he is extremely arrogant and loves to make money. In addition to this, he is also petty, takes everything personally and won't stop until he childishly one ups anyone who has done him wrong. An example of this is shown in "Feud Fight" where he sets up a Wholesome Foods stand at the food market just to get back at the Green family for ruining his teeth in "Supermarket Scandal". He seems to act quite childish in general, as seen in "Reckoning Ball" when he cries when his father threatens to fire him for his actions towards the Greens.
Chip can also be conning and manipulative, as shown when he worms his way into the Greens' trust and seemingly apologizes to them, so he can trick them into thinking he's sorry so he can take over for his dad. Another example of his manipulative nature is shown in "Friend Con", where he manipulates Bill into befriending him just to sabotage his speech at Farm Con.
Even after Cricket's sensible decision of creating peace, Chip was still focused on outsmarting him.
He is also shown to be immoral and doesn't acknowledge the wrongness of his actions, as shown in "Feud Fight" where Cricket offers peace and cooperation, but Chip instead decides to hit him with tomatoes, and taunting afterwards, which not only made him look bad, but cost him potential customers and half of his employees for harming Cricket when they realized what a jerk he was, despite giving up.
However, he still blames the Greens, mostly Cricket, for his actions and continues acting immaturely while still suffering the ramifications of his actions.
And even after his father's warning, Chip continues to torment the Green family.
His plans apparently have a long history of backfiring in his face, as shown in "Chipwrecked"; however, in that episode, Chip has finally hatched a master plan that will drive the Greens out of town for good, involving a new expansion plan, hiring new workers to replace Greg and Rose, outright buying out Big Coffee and firing Cricket and Gloria. He also rubs it in Cricket's face, claiming he would've been the same without [his] advice, presumably as punishment for his gullibility and treating him like a joke the day before.
However, in "Chipocalypse Now", even though his plan was already coming together, he will go to further lengths to make sure the Greens are gone for good. He deceptively faked signatures, pressured the mayor over public opinion. But when the entire city comes to the Greens' defense and show that they didn't want the Greens gone like the petition claimed, the mayor not only orders Chip to put everything back the way it was before, but also bans Chip from the city. With this, Chip reaches a major breaking point and immediately tries to murder Cricket with his helicopter, chasing him around and eventually cornering the entire family, wanting to kill them all this time for his humiliation and defeat. This display of deceit and cruelty, along with his inability to learn the errors of his ways, had cemented Chip as a completely irredeemable villain. Chip's attitudes leads to his own downfalls where not only did he get banned from the Big City by Mayor Hansock as punishiment for his crimes, but in his unhinged obsession with murdering the entire Green family made him unable to notice his helicopter getting stuck on some power lines, being launched far away from the city, with Cricket giving the final farewell and his catchphrase as payback.
Chip has a perfect new life as a normal guy; what could go wrong?
After his helicopter crash, Chip is presumed dead, much to the relief of the townsfolk and Cricket, who is delighted, something that he watches on the local news. Still wanting revenge on the Greens, Chip dresses as a ghost to try scaring them away, but when Gloria reveals they have moved out of Big City of their own, Chip enters a state of depression, feeling like he has nothing left to do anymore. After some reflection and the comment of a guy he encounters, Chip decides to start living as a normal person, adopting the name of "Norm Alguy" and managing to find a job and a girlfriend, getting his life together and being successful as a regular guy.
However, after a certain series of events, such as his boss giving him more work than usual and his girlfriend laughing too loud at a terrible joke, Chip feels like people are making fun of him. After he encounters a family in the city that greatly resembles the Greens, with the boy even resembling a ruder, obnoxious Cricket that kicks him, Chip starts to revert to his old, vengeful self, realizing that being vengeful it the only thing that makes him happy. He even chips his own tooth in order to never forget who he is, and with his Norm Alguy persona, he starts spying on the Greens, still thinking he's dead, with a newfound determination to get revenge on the Greens once and for all.
He almost succeeded in defeating them during Halloween, when he trapped all the Greens in an escape room, taking advantage on each of their weaknesses. He successfully trapped them into rooms that greatly resemble their Big City house, intending to leave them there forever and rigging the buttons that would supposedly let at least one of them escape into releasing snakes into their rooms instead should they press them. To further demoralize them, he faked a video of Cricket escaping so that the rest of the family would think he has betrayed them, confronting Cricket himself afterwards and tempting him to press the button for real since his family already think he has betrayed them, telling him that he could have all the freedom he wants without them. His spirit broken, Cricket is too upset to even admit he doomed his family for life and couldn't even decide.
Chip only failed due to Cricket taking a third option and escaping the room on his own terms, which was caused when he accidentally reminded him of Bill's song from earlier that the Greens can do anything if they work as a team. Nevertheless, this has been the closest Chip has been into defeating the Greens, showing that not only is he more sadist and determined in his revenge, but he also got smarter about it, failing only because he underestimated Cricket. Despite everything, his impulsiveness remained, chipping another tooth in the process when he saw Cricket escaping and not acting the way he intended. Regardless, he managed to escape the room before the family found out who trapped them, leaving them still unaware that Chip is still around, who laughs as he escape, not done with the Greens and clearly intending to get revenge on them another day.
The day soon arrives, with Chip at some point realizing that the reason why the Greens always manage to defeat him is because they're a family, so he plans to counter them with a family of his own. He forms an allegiance with thief couple Bella and Bash, who are on board with his plan. Their first order of business is to take down Remy Remington, who Chip knows is Cricket's best friend. Chip once again demonstrates his intelligence and resourcefulness by tricking Vazquez into leaving Remy alone, but the boy manages to defend himself with booby traps around the house, making Bella and Bash quit, much to Chip's chagrin. He is left to deal with Remy alone, but his luck changes when the Order of the Fang arrives to kidnap Remy and take revenge on Vazquez for deserting them. Seeing an opportunity, Chip tries to convince them to be the family he seeks, but they aren't on board. It isn't until Vazquez's arrival that they change their minds, with Chip being severely beaten by Remy's bodyguard and managing to resist the violent onslaught, impressing the order. Remy manages to escape with Vazquez, but thanks to Chip's resilience against their former member, the Order of the Fang name him their new leader, and together, along with Chip's girlfriend, who discovers his identity and is alright with it, form an allegiance to take down the Greens.
With an evil family backing him, Chip manages to get all of Big City turned against the Greens, finally able to enact his final plan for revenge: making the city covered in rotten produce with the Greens' names on it and fooling all of the citizens, even the mayor himself, into believing the family is responsible for the contamination. Chip plans to get back at Big City by blowing it sky-high, with everyone still in it. By this point, despite Tilly's insistence that he can be redeemed, any bit of Chip's friendliness has since long-gone, with the man reaching new heights of pure evil and megalomania. Chip also shows no qualms with betraying the people he allies with, kicking them to the curb when his needs are satisfied.
However, he meets his match when he faces Cricket, who is consumed by fear, anger, and hate. He manages to weaken Chip enough to the point where the man has started to fear him, but Tilly talks Cricket out of it before he could do anything that he would regret and pointing out he'll be just like Chip if he goes through with it, even Tilly admitting he's beyond redemption, too consumed by anger and revenge to see reason. Despite everything, Chip is not above begging for mercy, asking Cricket to pull him up when he was hanging from the base of his statue fortress. Although Cricket saves him, Chip shows no gratitude or desire to change his ways, advancing towards Cricket to finish him off despite the boy saving his life just moments before.
While Chip shows signs of intelligence considering the complex plan he manages to put together in the escape room and later managing to bring Big City against the Greens, his great hatred towards the family proved to be his undoing, rejecting Tilly's offer at redemption and showing no hesitation at killing hundreds, if not the millions of people of Big City just for siding with the Greens and banning him in "Chipocalypse Now", showing he's not above mass murder when it comes to punishing people he firmly believes wronged him and wanting to make the Greens watch in order to torment them further. His disdain for the family is so intense it's shown once more when it's revealed he has a torture chamber in his statue fortress specifically designed for each member individually, having very particular sounds that he knows will make them cry in anguish. When asked by Gramma why Chip just didn't kill them instead of putting together such a complicated plan of revenge, he admits that it wouldn't have been enough for him since he wanted to make them feel what he felt when he was banned, demonstrating that while Chip is willing to murder lots of people, he'd rather torture the ones he feels wronged him the most, with the Green family being the only ones he intended to spare if only to imprison them and make them watch as he destroys Big City along with their friends in order to make them suffer as much as possible.

Trivia
- When Chip gets his tooth chipped, it causes him to unintentionally whistle his sibilant consonants through it. This is a trait shared with Gopher from Winnie the Pooh, who has a similar speech impediment.
- Though not intended when designing the character, Chip has major similarities to Donald Trump. Both are businessmen who have unusual blonde hair and orange skin.[3]
- In fact, both of them can be known to get pretty crazy when it comes to things like plans backfiring on them:
- For Chip Whistler, he tried to run the Greens out of the city but ended up getting banned.
- For Donald Trump, he said that if he didn't win the 2020 election, it would have been rigged, and doubled down on this when Joe Biden won the election.
- Both his voice actor and Donald Trump were born in New York state.
- Ever since after "Supermarket Scandal", where his front teeth was chipped, he has repaired his chipped tooth, only to damage more of it in subsequent episodes.
- "Reckoning Ball" is the first where Chip's tooth is chipped near the beginning of the episode instead of near the end, and the first time he is shown filling it in.
- He and Jyle Donelan seems to have lots in common. When compared:
- They are both corrupt CEO/Managers.
- Both seem to be up against the Greens on some exceptions:
- Jyle only appeared in "Night Bill", and Chip appeared in seven episodes throughout both seasons.
- Chip is more against Cricket than the Greens personally, while Jyle is only against Cricket and Tilly, who were trying to take Bill out of Jyle's clutches.
- Ironically, Chip was the one whom Bill predicted that he would eat the fake produce, and in return, gets mad, and becomes an enemy to the Green family vowing to ruin their reputation.
- Prior to "Chipocalypse Now", Chip had not encountered Nancy, and had not met Remy. He would encounter both in said episode.
- He still doesn't know most of Cricket's friends.
- However, Chip is aware of Nancy and Remy's existences and where Nancy lives, yet he does not know Remy's name, nor his significance to Cricket.
- He would meet both in "Chipocalypse Now", and with the help of Mayor Hansock, knows the names of Cricket's friends.
- Prior to "Evil Family", Chip did not know Remy's significance to Cricket.
- If Chip hadn't ignored Cricket's warning about the fake produce, he wouldn't have chipped his tooth and become their enemy in the first place.
- However, this ignorance could be a side-effect of Chip's arrogance.
- In all episodes where he is the main focus, he has chipped his tooth in one way or another. "Evil Family" does not feature this trait.
- When asked by an anonymous user on "Tumblr" how worried we (the viewers) should be when Chip comes back for Season 2, Chris Houghton responded, "VERY."[4]
- His claims would prove true with Chip's manipulation of his father and subsequent takeover of Big Coffee and the Elkins Apartment, cementing his position as a ruthless villain who does not stop at anything to ensure his victory.
- Chip's goal to run the Greens out of Big City is ironically the opposite of what the family does every generation - the oldest member plans on selling the farm when things go out of hand, and the kids have to find a way to save it.
- Chip is the first antagonist to be the main character of an episode. ("Reckoning Ball")
- Chip has actually succeeded with his plan slightly, as the Greens (except Nancy) were banned from Sea Fusïon as of "Fill Bill", and Bill is banned from every library worldwide as of "Quiet Please".
- Normally characters are drawn with three toes on each foot, but Chip has four.
- As shown in "Time Crisis", Chip will fail to destroy the Green house no matter what, as it is seen fully intact in Cricket's imagined future.
- Chip has similarities to Sideshow Bob from The Simpsons in that they've both had their image ruined by a male child (Cricket/Bart), occasionally come after to destroy the male child and their families and gets thwarted by them, in addition to experiencing a situation which almost killed the male child, but they escape in time.
- Chip is also similar to Russ Cargill from The Simpsons Movie. Both are wealthy businessmen gone mad with power who wants to run the main character's families out of their homes.
- Chip is extremely similar to Terry Silver from Cobra Kai. Both are businessmen who have major egos. Terry blames others for his crimes while Chip is a liar. They also like similar things.
- Chip also has a similarity to Cricket, as they both come from families of farmers.
- Chip is (also) the complete opposite of Cricket:
- Chip only cares about himself and making money, while Cricket cares about everyone, especially his family.
- Chip runs a company that is overwhelmed with power, while Cricket's farming is done with love.
- Chip's salmon skin tone is several shades darker than Cricket's yellow skin tone, while his blonde hair is several shades lighter than Cricket's brunette. In addition, the darker shaved highlights on the bottom mimic Cricket's lighter colored under-scalp.
- Contrary to Chip's vendetta, destroying the Greens' house won't technically run them out of town, as they can still find someplace else to stay for the time being, such as a hotel or with someone in the city they know.
- This is shown in "Chipocalypse Now" as Bill is looking up various cheap city apartments to move to, should Chip succeed.
- When Chip gets his tooth replaced at the end of "Reckoning Ball" he asks for platinum, but in "Friend Con" and "Chipwrecked", he says it's titanium.
- Chris Houghton joked on his Tumblr that Chip is 99 years old.[5]
- Chip is the fourth character other than Cricket to say "bingo-bango", in "Chipocalypse Now". The first three were Nancy in "Uncaged", Gramma in "Friend Con", and Remy in "Gabriella's Fella".
- Chip was absent for most of the third season. However, he returns in "Long Goodbye", where it is revealed he faked his death. His name is written on Bill's "potential best buddy" list in "DependaBill" and mentioned by Gloria in "Dirt Jar".
- Chip's return was foreshadowed in "Dirt Jar" when Gloria asks Cricket, "Or a villain returned from our past?"
- Chip returns in "Chipped Off", but was notably not made the antagonist of the movie, with Gwendolyn Zapp taking his place as its "main antagonist" instead.
- It's possible she was chosen instead to avert the viewers' expectations, as Chip returns in the episode "No Escape", plotting his next plan to rid of the Green Family after his latest scheme failed.
- Despite these developments, it is currently unknown when or if he will return in Season 5.
- As of "Chip's Revenge", his fate is sealed: he is currently locked up, serving three life sentences.
- The irony is if Cricket cared about his family more than money first, then things would've been different.
- In Season 4, the Greens did not see Chip in his leather getup, and they did not see him in his Norm Alguy persona.
- Despite not being aware of Chip's scar until seeing him in person, Cricket somehow saw an impression of Chip with said scar in the flame of the angry mob leader's torch.
- Another irony is that prisoners can easily escape the prison especially with Bash and Bella, due to Officer Keys always being too cheery.
- Remy and Vasquez were the only ones of the Greens' allies to see Chip following his first defeat.
