From to , Big Idea created a short running spin-off called Larryboy: On November 3, , the show began running on the Trinity Broadcasting Network TBN as well as its children's network Smile of a Child , where it currently continues to air episodes in a repackaged and edited format. In , Netflix made numerous VeggieTales videos in their uncut, original formats and the two feature films available via their video streaming service. Their aim was to produce children's videos which conveyed Christian moral themes and taught Biblical values and lessons.
The animated feature involved stories told by a group of recurring fruit and vegetable characters who lived on a kitchen countertop. The program was offered in the direct-to-video market, with the first minute program, Where's God When I'm S-Scared? In addition to these episodes, there are 13 compilations that combine previously released material, and two feature-length movies, Jonah: Beginning in , the VeggieTales videos were adapted as a regular television program through the Qubo multi-platform network and NBC network.
The idea for VeggieTales was conceived in the early s when Vischer was testing animation software to use as a medium for children's videos. His first animation model was an anthropomorphic candy bar.
When his wife suggested that parents might prefer a hero who promoted healthier eating habits, he began designing the characters based on fruits and vegetables. The cast of voice actors of the early Veggietales videos predominantly came from friends of Phil Vischer such as Dan Anderson Dad Asparagus and Jim Poole Scooter the Carrot who collaborated with Vischer on dramas at their local church.
The episodes generally follow a standard format where a moral issue is posited in the opening countertop sequence, either through a viewer question or an issue brought up by Bob or Larry, followed by one or more "films" that address the issue, with a Silly Song in the middle. The Silly Songs are generally introduced with a title card and a voiceover saying, "And now it's time for Silly Songs with Larry, the part of the show where Larry comes out and sings a silly song.
Lunt," or "Ukulele Karaoke with Bob," where another character sings the song instead.
The Silly Song , if one appears, is usually in the middle of the program, often at a cliffhanger moment or in between two stories although the LarryBoy episodes, in particular, often lack this segment, with the exception of League of Incredible Vegetables. Each episode ends with this program's signature sign-off: Bob, Larry the Cucumber , and other Veggie characters then sing the show's theme song as they hop to Bob's front door.
The theme song ends with a character making a random comment, such as Pa Grape commenting on Archibald's new sweater. Bob and Larry then wait for the mailman, Jimmy Gourd, to deliver a letter. Similar to the opening counter-top sequence of the VeggieTales videos, Bob and Larry read the letter and the cast tries to decide how to solve the viewer's problem through one of three regular segments: Lunt appears with his stick puppet, Paco the Storytelling Mule, and tells a story.
The result always proves disastrous, as the story or film makes no sense. Bob and Larry then intervene with a story from a VeggieTales video.
The show ends with Bob and Larry wrapping things up by reiterating the story's lesson and thanking the kids for coming to his house. NBC episodes end with characters bidding the audience a simple "Good-bye". When NBC began airing VeggieTales episodes in September , [15] it edited the episodes to remove religious messages, including references to God. The original sign-off message--"Remember kids, God made you special and He loves you very much!
See you next week! The original dialogue remained viewable by users of the network's closed-caption feature. Brent Bozell, president of the group, complained of the network "ripping the heart and soul out of a successful product", saying that if NBC was concerned about references to God, they should not have taken the series.
Bozell added "This just documents the disconnect between Hollywood and the real world.
Lyrics to 'Theme Song' by VeggieTales: You like to talk to tomatoes, If a squash can make you smile, If you like to waltz with potatoes Up and down the produce. Lyrics to 'VeggieTales Theme Song' by VeggieTales. If you like to talk to tomatoes / If a squash can make you smile / If you like to waltz with potatoes / Up.
NBC replied that the editing conformed to the network's broadcast standards, which direct producers "not to advocate any one religious point of view. I want to focus people more on 'Isn't it cool that Bob and Larry are on television. A new series for preschool children, [19] VeggieTales in the House , premiered on Netflix in Thanksgiving The deal between current VeggieTales owner DreamWorks and Netflix call for the release of 75 episodes over a three-year period with each episode featuring two minute stories.
Mike Nawrocki and Phil Vischer continue to voice their characters, [22] but the rest of the original video cast has been replaced by veteran voice actors Tress MacNeille and Rob Paulsen. Bob and Larry live as roommates in an apartment west of the kitchen counter.
Several stories revolve around a general store built into the bottom-right corner of a kitchen counter which is run by Pa Grape. The cast from the original videos remains the same aside from the absence of Mr.
Nezzer, who has been replaced by a similar looking character named Ichabeezer. Themes in each episode relate to Biblical principles such as forgiveness, compassion and generosity.
Following the release of the episode Noah's Ark , Big Idea did not announce any new plans for further VeggieTales home video releases, seemingly focusing solely on the Netflix series. In June , Mike Nawrocki appeared on the Christian talk show Today's Life and said "if there's ever an opportunity to do something VeggieTales -related again, I would love to do that.
At the Christian Worldview Film Festival, Mike Nawrocki confirmed that he was no longer working on VeggieTales , and there was nothing in production.
