Episode 30 - Duke and the Great Pie War
First Aired: May. 08,2005

Subtitled "A Lesson in Loving Your Family", it includes two stories aimed at teaching the value of family and the importance of putting others' needs ahead of your own. It is a prequel to King George and the Ducky. Both features are based directly on accounts taken from the Bible.

In this account, Ruth and her mother-in-law Naomi seek the protection of a distant relative named Boaz.

The story is recast to a medieval setting in this video, also making slight references to Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

Episode 28 - Sumo of the Opera
First Aired: August. 31,2004

Sumo of the Opera is the 24th episode in the VeggieTales series. Subtitled "A Lesson in Perseverance", it teaches viewers the importance of working through adversity to accomplish one's goals. After doing a generic parody of a Gilbert and Sullivan musical in Lyle the Kindly Viking, the main story is a direct spoof of Gilbert and Sullivan's The Mikado. The parody is so transparent, in fact, that most of the music is credited to Arthur Sullivan himself. In addition, this release contains an eclectic mix of other influences as well. While Sumo of the Opera draws plot elements and names directly from Rocky and has similar plot style to The Karate Kid, the segment that precedes, Going Up!, is an homage to both the Three Stooges and a Laurel and Hardy short film called The Music Box. Even the Silly Song is a parody, this time of the 1970s educational shorts Schoolhouse Rock!

The episode contains two main features. The first is a parody of Robert Louis Stevenson's novel The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. The second is the story of a small whimsical creature called a Snoodle who is suffering through a crisis of self-esteem. The narration is done in the style of Dr. Seuss, deftly capturing his iconic cadence, rhyme schemes, nonsense phraseology, and fanciful sense of place with the overall theme closely following the story of the Wemmick "Punchinello" in Max Lucado's book You Are Special!. This episode was the first to be animated by Starz.

Episode 25 - An Easter Carol
First Aired: February. 10,2004

First Aired: May. 20,2003

The Wonderful World of Auto-Tainment! is the 19th episode in the VeggieTales series. It was released on May 20, 2003 on DVD and VHS. It is a variety show in which the Veggies sing songs from various sing-along albums in a format that conforms to Larry's idea of what the future of entertainment will be like. In Larry's estimation, entertainment will be fully automated. Using devices such as the "Wheel of Veggies" and the "Swarming Balls of Disorder", random performers will be paired with random musical numbers. Even jokes will be randomly generated. This was the only VeggieTales video not to have a central moral theme, and the first VeggieTales episode to be made by Big Idea after its acquisition by Classic Media in mid-2003.

Episode 19 - The Star of Christmas
First Aired: October. 29,2002

The Star of Christmas is the eighteenth episode of the VeggieTales animated series and the second holiday special in that series. It was released on October 29, 2002 and re-released September 5, 2006 in Holiday Double Feature with its earlier episode The Toy that Saved Christmas. Like the other holiday episodes, it has no “A Lesson in...” subtitle and the countertops. A message, however, is that you can't teach people to love through pomp and flash, but rather that love must come from the inside; Jesus was sent on Christmas to help enable such a change, and He is the true "Star of Christmas". The show is set in London in 1882 and has a Charles Dickens quality to it. Indeed, the sequel, An Easter Carol, features the same characters and the same setting and is a direct parody of the Dickens' classic A Christmas Carol.

Episode 17 - Larryboy The Cartoon Adventures: The Angry Eyebrows
First Aired: March. 19,2002

The creators of the sensational 3-D computer-animated series VeggieTales transport their goofiest character--Larryboy--into the traditional world of 2-D line-drawing animation for a new Christian-lite comedy series. In this first episode, Larryboy (the superhero alter ego of Larry the Cucumber) takes on the dastardly Awful Alvin, who has made sure any angry citizen of Bumblyburg stays angry thanks to his legions of batlike eyebrows. The gentle lesson of letting go of anger is massaged with the typical VeggieTales high jinks. Many of the well-known VeggieTales stars make appearances; Bob the Tomato is editor of the newspaper where Larry is not a Clark Kent-like reporter but rather a janitor. Also included is the silent short "Fly by Night," in which Larryboy takes on a pesky fly.

Episode 16 - The Ultimate Silly Song Countdown
First Aired: September. 15,2001

The Ultimate Silly Song Countdown is the 16th episode in the VeggieTales animated series and the third Silly Song compilation. The premise was to count down the Top Ten Silly Songs as decided by the show's viewers. Big Idea launched a campaign to collect and tally votes from fans via mail and internet for this purpose in a date of September 15, 2001 on DVD & VHS.

Episode 15 - Lyle the Kindly Viking
First Aired: March. 24,2001

Lyle the Kindly Viking is the 15th episode of the VeggieTales animated series. It was released on March 24, 2001 on both DVD and VHS. It features two short stories about sharing, one a parody of Shakespeare's Hamlet, the other a parody of a Gilbert and Sullivan comic opera.

Episode 14 - Esther
First Aired: September. 01,2000

Esther... The Girl Who Became Queen is the 14th episode in the VeggieTales animated series. Subtitled "A Lesson in Courage", it conveys the message that you do not need to be afraid to do what is right. The story is taken from the Book of Esther in the Old Testament, in which Esther becomes Queen and must tell King Xerxes that his prime minister Haman is plotting to commit genocide against the Jews. The violent undertones are, of course, removed for this VeggieTales production; murder is replaced by banishment to the "Island of Perpetual Tickling", and the intended victims are limited to Esther and her family without reference to their race or creed. The presentation of the story was inspired by The Godfather and Casablanca and has stylistic elements of a Film noir. The dramatic lighting, deep shadows, dark plot elements, and narrative voiceovers all contribute to the effect. The palace windows are even hung with Venetian blinds, an iconic element of the genre. This is one of a few episodes that spurn the usual VeggieTales format: there are no opening or closing countertop sequence with "VeggieTales Theme" and "What We Have Learned" songs, or Silly Songs with Larry. The video features the only appearance of the Esther Veggie character who was expensive to render, due to the complexity of her hair, and the character has not returned. This is also the only episode that is narrated by a non-VeggieTales character and is the only video in which Bob the Tomato does not appear.

Episode 11 - King George and the Ducky
First Aired: April. 01,2000

King George And The Ducky is the 13th episode in the VeggieTales animated series. It was released in April 11, 2000 on VHS, and on May 20, 2003 on DVD. Subtitled "A lesson about... Selfishness", it teaches viewers that they must think of others before themselves. The message is conveyed through a story based on the Biblical account of David and Bathsheba from Second Samuel. Although the VeggieTales adaptation remains relatively true to the source, Bathsheba is represented by a rubber duck, thus replacing the sin of adultery with the less difficult crime of theft. But the essence of the story remains intact as the King covets something belonging to his neighbor and takes it for his own and the selfish act is later condemned by a wiseman/prophet. The subsequently released Duke and the Great Pie War is a prequel to this episode. This was the first episode to use the Maya animation package instead of Softimage.

Episode 10 - Larry-Boy and the Rumor Weed
First Aired: July. 01,1999

Larry-Boy and the Rumor Weed is the 12th episode in the VeggieTales animated series, and the second installment of the LarryBoy adventures. It was released in July 1999 on VHS formats and January 28, 2003 on DVD formats. Subtitled "A Lesson in the Power of Words", it illustrates how destructive false rumors or negative words can be, and conversely, how positive words can do good. It is a mild parody of Little Shop Of Horrors. Unlike other episodes with the VeggieTales Theme Song at the start, this is one of the episodes without Bob the Tomato and the countertop segments. Marc Vulcano, the animation supervisor for the film had just joined Big Idea Productions from Sierra On-Line, Inc. This video was the last VeggieTales production to be rendered entirely in Softimage.

Episode 9 - Madame Blueberry
First Aired: July. 01,1998

Madame Blueberry is the tenth episode in the VeggieTales animated series. It was released in July 1998 and issued on DVD May 20, 2003. Subtitled "A Lesson in Thankfulness", it conveys the message that material possessions will never truly make us happy, and that we must instead be thankful for what we have.

Episode 8 - Josh and the Big Wall!
First Aired: October. 01,1997

Josh and the Big Wall! is the ninth episode of the VeggieTales animated series. It was released in October 1997 on VHS. It is also the ninth episode to talk about obedience because it is subtitled "A Lesson in Obedience". The story follows the plight of the Israelites and the Battle of Jericho.

Episode 5 - Dave and the Giant Pickle
First Aired: March. 01,1996

Dave and the Giant Pickle is the fifth episode in the VeggieTales animated series. Also, this video was the first time Larry the Cucumber was LarryBoy. It was released in March 1996 on VHS. Subtitled "A Lesson in Self-Esteem", it sends the message that with God's help humans can accomplish anything we set our minds to. The lesson is illustrated through a retelling of the Bible story of David and Goliath from the Book of Samuel.

Episode 4 - Rack, Shack & Benny
First Aired: October. 01,1995

Rack, Shack and Benny, released in October 1995 on VHS, is the fourth episode of the VeggieTales animated series and the first to present one story instead of two shorter segments. Subtitled "A Lesson in Handling Peer Pressure," it teaches viewers about avoiding unhealthy peer pressure and standing up for their beliefs. The video is a retelling of the biblical story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, from the Book of Daniel. In the story, King Nebuchadnezzar II requires that all his subjects bow down before a false idol. But three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, refuse and are thrown into a furnace. They remain unharmed, and Nebuchadnezzar recognizes the power of their God. Rack, Shack and Benny adheres to the original story, but places it in a chocolate factory at which all employees are required to bow down before a giant chocolate bunny and sing "The Bunny Song."
