VeggieTales on NBC

VeggieTales is an American series of children's computer-animated films featuring anthropomorphic fruits and vegetables in stories conveying moral themes based on Christianity. The episodes frequently retell and recreate Bible stories anachronistically reframed and include humorous references to pop culture. The series was developed by Big Idea Entertainment.

Plot
Unlike the VHS and DVD series, the TV series takes place at Bob's house and not the Countertop (because it is a spin-off to the series). Like the videos and DVDs, Larry and Bob get letters, but they're given by Jimmy (as a mailman). Before the actual episode is played, sometimes another character attempts to help, like Archibald and his Big Book of Oddities, Pa Grape and one of his home movies, and Paco the Storytelling Mule (really played by Mr. Lunt). The things they do don't help with the problem and don't even make sense. After this, Larry or Bob cues the actual story.

After the show, Bob explains what to do to solve the problem. Then the episode ends with Bob thanking the kids for coming over to his house or that the cast will be seeing them again next week.They all say good bye too.

The What Have We Learned song doesn't appear, nor does the bible verse from Qwerty.

Sometimes a silly song or another short will appear in the middle of the show, depending on the time.

Controversy
The main controversy of this show was when NBC removed all religious references to God and bible verses, at the request of the NBC network's standards and practices department. However, Bible story retellings were aired. Most fans and slightly Phil Vischer (the creator of the original VeggieTales and voice of Bob, Archibald and Pa Grape) were angry about this. The "God Made You Special, and He Loves You Very Much" quote at the end of the episodes were changed to "Hey, kids. Thanks for coming to my house today." or even "We'll see you all next week." However, the original quote was still available on closed captions and even the lip syncing wasn't changed. Because of this, the show was eventually removed from Qubo's schedule in September 2009, along with LarryBoy: The Cartoon Adventures and LarryBoy and the Bad Apple. 3-2-1 Penguins!, however, stayed on Qubo until 2014. Though the original (home video) series began airing in 2012 onwards on TBN's Smile of a Child block, while this show re-aired in 2016 on Cozi and in syndication.
