A Clip from "Lessons from the Sock Drawer"

Thanks for stopping by VeggieTales Review! Whether you're a fruit, a vegetable or something else, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

Here’s a clip from the new VeggieTales episode that they just released.  I believe this is one of the two “new” segments that they added to this one that is much like Larry’s Wonderful World of Autotainment in its feel.

I’m glad to hear that Huckleberry Larry will be out July 1, 2008, and perhaps Big Idea will get back to a normal schedule after that– otherwise that would be the pits (coming from a Plum, that’s quite a statement!).

Big Idea Announces New DVD

Still more uncertain news from Big Idea.  Are any of you subscribed to the VeggieTales Newsletter?  If you were, you’ve probably already see the advertisement, but for those of you that are not, VeggieTales is announcing a new DVD out in May that is called “Lessons from the Sock Drawer: A Collection of Veggie Shorts and Briefs.”  Obviously a play on words, and I know that they believe that the “Briefs” word will get a laugh.

JellyTelly

So, Phil Vischer is at it again, and he needs your help.  He’s launching a new online television network called Jelly Telly, and he’s looking to populate it with Christian entertainment.  This is not associated with Big Idea or VeggieTales, but it is a place where a Christian message can be brought forth.

And he wants our help– first in prayer and then with video footage of good role models.

So why are we doing this?  Simple.  Kids need to see what God’s love looks like in action.  If they watch a lot of television, they see pop stars, sports stars and celebrities.  They see kids driving around Hollywood in nice cars - recording albums and buying clothes.  They don’t see a whole lot of missionaries or Christian relief workers or, even more vital, kids just like them sacrificing their time to show God’s love to others.  So this sort of thing will be a major focus of JellyTelly.

Sounds like a great project– any takers?

Larry the Cucumber on the Today Show December 21

That’s right, I got it straight from the Big Idea mailing list (click to see full image):

I wonder if they get this because they’re part of the Saturday morning offering on NBC, or what!  Great opportunity, though.
