However, there are times when the townsfolk get into problems or don't get along with each other. The series follows Sheriff Callie, a female calico cat and the sheriff alongside her friends Deputy Peck, a male red woodpecker and keeper of the town jail and Toby, a male saguaro cactus. Together they all solve problems and teach the townsfolk to get along with each other while working hard to make the town the friendliest in the west.
Characters
Main
- Sheriff Callie (voiced by Mandy Moore[6]) is a calico cat. A self-described cowgirl,[7] she serves as the sheriff to Nice and Friendly Corners. She is able to ride a horse, do a front flip,[8] and do a flexed arm hang on a rope carrying a horse between her thighs for over 5 seconds.[9] She sings, writes songs and plays her guitar called "Sweet Strings". Her catchphrases are "Sweet sassafras!," "Leaping lassos!" and "What in whiskers?" In the original Oki's Oasis, she was to be named "Oki." On the opening she claims that some say she is the "best in the west." She is a skilled lassoer, using a magic noodle lasso that can turn into different shapes for different purposes, such as in "Peck's Bent Beak" when she is able to form it into a stairway to help a dangling Peck down, or a hammer to pound in loose nails.
- Sparky (vocal effects provided by Dee Bradley Baker) is Sheriff Callie's trusty blue horse.[10]
- Deputy Peck (voiced by Lucas Grabeel[11]) is a woodpecker and the sheriff's deputy of Nice and Friendly Corners. He's good at sweeping the jail house and serving as second-in-command to Sheriff Callie, but he's a bit of a bragger and a perfectionist. Peck calls Toby his best buddy.[12] Peck's favorite food is trail mix,[13] and he tends to end sentences with "...on account of I'm the deputy!" as well as say "Holy jalapeños!"
- Clementine (vocal effects provided by Jessica DiCicco) is Deputy Peck's strong and stubborn[14] mule. She is slow and not quite trusty.
- Toby (voiced by Jessica DiCicco[15]) is a friendly saguaro cactus whose full name is Tobias P. Cactus.[16] He is referred to as Peck's best friend.[12] Toby sees the good in everything and is almost always happy. He is able to hang 1-armed for at least 5 seconds.[17] This cactus also is a great dancer and loves to have fun. He wants to learn how to twirl a noodle lasso like Sheriff Callie, and will often tag along on Callie and Peck's adventures while using a barrel for transportation by rolling on it. Toby loves milkshakes and popcorn as well. He also can play the harmonica. Sometimes, when his spines get into trouble, he claims that he's "a pokey cowpoke". In "Toby Braves the Bully", he becomes a newspaper delivering cactus, but gets bullied by a visiting bulldog named Bradley.[18] In the original Oki's Oasis, he was to be named "Kiko".

Production
"Davy would always do the right thing but then he'd turn around and become a super-action hero – and that's Callie. She'll moralize and teach good social ethics, but when it's time to jump on a horse and lasso a tornado, she does it."
Creator George Evelyn, describing about Callie's personality and role[1]
The series was announced in 2011 under the working name "Oki's Oasis" during the Summer Television Critics Association with Mandy Moore voicing the main character, depicted as a white and gray tabby cat. It was announced to be released at the end of 2013,[52] however, it got pushed back to January 20, 2014 due to several changes to the name and characters. The name changes possibly had to do with the fact that "Oki" and "Kiko," the original names of Sheriff Callie and Toby, were Japanese names that would not be very fitting in a show set in the Old West.[3] (Kiko also spelled Quico are also the nicknames for Francisco and Frederico in Spanish.) On November 18, the official website was launched with the character information and minigames.
In an interview with Holly Huckins, George Evelyn and Denis Morella in TV Guide, Huckins stated that "We've had so much fun taking all those classic cowboy devices – from tornadoes and cattle stampedes to train robberies and the High Noon shootout – and making them kid-appropriate in order to teach lessons about sharing and forgiveness and good manners,"[1] Morella also stated that "There's even a saloon! "But there is no liquor and no rowdy, scary drunks." She also said that "Ella the cow, who runs the establishment, serves up milkshakes, fruit juice and other healthy drinks – but we still slide those drinks down the bar like in the old western movies!."[1] The team also stated that the series takes inspiration from several Western movies and series like The Andy Griffith Show, Green Acres, Quick Draw McGraw and the classic 1950s Disney series Davy Crockett.[1] "We did our research and found that the real Wild West wasn't anywhere near as wild and frightening as Hollywood's ultra-violent, gun-slinging mythology would have us believe," Evelyn says. "The West was settled primarily by people who were intent on obeying the rules, people who went the distance to help each other out – and that's the town of Nice and Friendly Corners!."[53]
Lucas Grabeel, the voice of Deputy Peck stated in an interview that "Sheriff Callie always comes in at the last minute and saves the day and teaches everyone a really valuable lesson and that's the other great part of it." He also said that "The kids who watch the show will not only hear an original country song every episode, but they'll also learn a very simple but very valuable lesson." Grabeel also said that "I've always loved doing silly voices." and that "This is my first series regular position on any show, so that was definitely a change. Even though I had done [voice over work] in the past, I was still a little nervous about how it was going to go. But the family that surrounds Sheriff Callie's Wild West is such a warm, welcoming group of veterans and very experienced people in the voice over world. They welcomed me in and said, 'You're good, just trust yourself.' They were right. It was really great to be a part of it."[54]
Music
The series features a lot of western music and songs inspired from country pop to Appalachian. The opening song of the series is performed by Mandy Moore. Evelyn said that "Mandy Moore did such a great job for Disney in Tangled and we're thrilled to have her with us. She's the perfect voice for Callie – sweet when she needs to be but she can quickly pull out that spunk and attitude when necessary."[1]
Reception
Critical response
Hannah Johnson of Screen Rant asserted, "Callie teaches young viewers that everyone has a unique combination of stereotypically gendered traits, and this unique combination is not something to be ashamed of. Instead, it makes us helpful to ourselves and our community."[55] Carey Bryson of About.com said, "A Western for preschoolers – such a perfect genre to get kids excited and teach them about good ol' manners, friendship and fairness. The visual style of this series is cute, but not exceptional. The strength of the series lies in Old West flavor, including awesome Western style music and all the folksy characters we would think of in a Western show – the milkshake saloon owner, the wise old tortoise, the javelina miners Dirty Dan and Dusty, the roadrunner mailman...the list of adorable Old West characters goes on and on." and that "Sheriff Callie's bringing Western back, and preschoolers, as well as their parents, will appreciate this friendly and flavorful show."[56] Emily Ashby of Common Sense Media gave the series a grade of five out of five stars, praised the positive messages and role models, citing sportsmanship and compassion, and wrote, "Catchy songs and the show's cute incorporation of its Old West theme give this show real flair, and the fact that it casts a pink boots-wearing girl as the town sheriff goes a long way to bridge the gender gap as well."[57]
