Why do I call this DVD the return of Phil Vischer?  It’s not because he and Big Idea have a new deal in place.  It’s not because he wrote this script.  It’s not because his voice is in the commentary track (for it isn’t).

It’s because this is the first story in a while that had his imprint all over it.

Vischer’s Finger-Prints

From the very beginning of this story it feels like one of the VeggieTales stories of old.

For one thing, when they’re floating down the Mississippi River, and they come to Muskateen (whoever heard of this town—sorry for those who live there!) the sign reads “Birthplace of Phil Vischer).

So, I couldn’t help but notices some stirrings over at Phil Vicher’s blog.  Seems like he’s getting quite the animations in for his new gig—JellyTelly.  This is not in any way associated with VeggieTales, but it’s an adventure he’s starting out for a new business, and it will be some kind of television network via the Internet.

Sparked your curiosity?  Go check it out!

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?
