News On Noah + Jaci Velasquez Interview!

Hey, Veggie fans! There's been quite a flurry of news coming out regarding the first DVD release of the new VT era, Noah's Ark! Read on for some of my own thoughts on this exciting next chapter!

Image credit: DWA TV PR

When I first heard that the next episode would be a new retelling of the Noah story, I was a little surprised; didn't they already retell this Bible story on Minnesota Cuke and the Search For Noah's Umbrella? On the commentary for that episode, it was stated that the Minnesota Cuke episodes worked well for retelling darker Bible stories (it's not all rainbows and fuzzy animals, you know), so I wasn't expecting them to try Noah again. But the more I've heard about this new approach, the more excited I am for it. Plus, the first VeggieTales movie concept before Jonah was about Noah's ark, so I'm curious if this episode will have any similarities to that earlier concept. But in any case, it's appropriate that this episode is going back to where the show began -- retelling Bible stories in a fun, fresh way! So, I can say with great certainty that Noah has me excited for more reasons than one.

The first thing that I'm definitely looking forward to is that they're doing this up as a musical. Of course, VT has always rocked at doing musicals, as no episode to date has been without a song (or two or three), but I think the boat-bound musical subgenre is an especially fun way to flip the story of Noah around a bit. A little less "doomsday" and a bit more "Anchors Aweigh"!

Another thing I'm very excited for is that this episode's got a couple of amazing voices on board: Wayne Brady and Jaci Velasquez! They will be playing Noah's son, Shem, and his wife, Sadie. I'm seriously excited, because Wayne Brady is a hilarious actor and an epic singer, and Jaci Velasquez is an amazing singer and radio show host! I love Shem and Sadie's character designs, and I think they'll fit in perfectly into the VT world. I really love how many great actors and singers have been showing up in VT lately, from Rob Paulsen and Tress MacNeille's roles on In the House to Terry Crews's stellar performance as Bruce Onion in Celery Night Fever! Phil and Mike can do perfectly on their own, but it's always great seeing the Veggie world expanded :)

And I'd be completely wrong if I didn't mention how adorable these animals are. I'm impressed since the massive amount of fur was apparently the reason why the Noah film didn't fly in the first place. I don't yet know what company's doing their animation, whether it will still be Huhu or if Bardel will take over. Bardel's work with furry creatures in DWA's Puss in Boots and King Julien series has proved to be awesome, so they'll look great if they go that route. Either way, I'm really glad that VT is in a place now where they try something technologically that they couldn't do ten years ago!

One of the things I'm most curious about with this new chapter is what the format will be like. I've already heard they're reanimating the original intro to fit the new style, so that's definitely going to be exciting to see come to life. Will they ever give Larry a break on that tuba so he doesn't nearly pass out? (Probably not!) In addition, we'll likely get to see the new countertop and hopefully Qwerty too (though I'm not entirely sure on this, considering there isn't a Qwerty in ITH's kitchen, but we'll have to wait and see). It'll be interesting to see how these new versions of the crew we've gotten to know in ITH will translate to a regular VT episode format.

Finally, I'm very much looking forward to seeing their spin on the lesson. Noah's Umbrella chose to talk about having the confidence to do what God wants us to do, while the new Noah is a lesson in trusting God. I really like the twist they've come up with... I could easily see Noah and his folks having some questions about God's plan in the midst of that massive flood. So, that really works well as this episode's moral, finding something unique to set it apart from the already awesome Minnesota Cuke.

And if nothing I've said has you pumped up yet, this interview with Sadie herself, Jaci Velasquez, ought to! (Thanks, DWA TV!) Read on.

Why did you want to make a VeggieTales movie?

VeggieTales is like the Mecca of our house – I’ve got two little boys, and they cannot get enough VeggieTales. So, to be a part of this is just a wonderful thing for me. My husband and I like to sing to our kids, but they could care less – it’s to the point where we’ll sing and practice a song with them while we’re giving them baths and they’ll plug their ears and say, “Mommy, Daddy! Stop!” To be part of VeggieTales and do something for the first time that my kids might actually enjoy is wonderful.

The story of Noah and his ark has been told many times. What makes the VeggieTales version different?

Well, I’m pretty sure it will be the only version with singing vegetables and a giant squid! I think it was pretty brave of VeggieTales to take on the story of Noah because it is so familiar – but they make it feel completely new. The animals are absolutely adorable, and there’s so much comedy; I’ve always thought VeggieTales movies were funny, but this one is really funny. They’ve also really discovered something important about the story, because Noah’s Ark is about patience, trusting and believing. Kids need to understand those things. Whatever we pour into our children is what will pour out of them – what they learn as children is what they will be as adults. We are planting seeds in their hearts and souls, and it’s important for them to understand that God has a purpose and a plan. We don’t always understand it, and we have to trust in it. That’s a big lesson, and Noah’s Ark helps parents start to teach it.

Who is your favorite VeggieTales character?

Sorry to be so typically “normal,” but it’s always Larry! I love Madame Blueberry, as well, but really… Larry. He just makes you happy. He makes you laugh. It’s like he’s every kid you’ve ever known, but he’s not – because he’s a vegetable!

Why do you think VeggieTales has been so popular for so long?

I think parents want good entertainment for their kids, especially in the world we live in. You know, human beings are born knowing how to do the wrong thing, but we need to be taught how to do the right thing, and what better way to do that than through entertainment? As a mom, I know that it can get really overwhelming to try to teach kids everything they need to know. You say prayers with them at night, you read books with them, you take them to Sunday school – but that’s only one day a week. So it helps to have entertainment that teaches them the truth and that teaches them fundamental things about life. As a parent, VeggieTales gives me such gratitude!

 

Definitely looking forward to seeing this one and talking about it in my review! Until then...

Eye On The Tiger: Perseverance For The New Year!

We're at the end of the first month of the new year, and so begs the question... how are your resolutions? Or if not resolutions, your goals? Your promises to yourself? I know at the beginning of the year, we often feel like we can take on the world. But after a while, it starts to feel hard, or after not getting what we wanted fast enough, we start losing hope.

Well, I know for a fact that there's a VeggieTales episode for you -- Sumo of the Opera! I know this because I've energized myself many times by singing, "A Sumo Can't Go Wrong"! We all need to be reminded to persevere and keep on keepin' on, and this episode is one of the best reminders! 

So, if you're having a case of the Mondays, feeling overwhelmed by work or school, or really don't want to attend that fitness class, here's a breakdown of the most epic training montage known to Veggie-kind to make you smile and get you pumped!

Image credit: my own DVD

Fueled by young Hadrian's drive and an awesome song by the sumo men's choir, Scallion goes from quitting to keeping his eye on the tiger, both metaphorically and literally! 

(C'mon, there's not one of you out there who doesn't want that tiger bike...)

Image credit: my own DVD

 

Then that rock music kicks in and Scallion's takin' it to the escalators! Look at that determination on his face... he's got his head in the game as he scales that metal mountain!

Image credit: my own DVD

 

Sit-ups. Not fun, but a necessary part of his journey. Also, major props to the fact he's doing this without arms or legs.

Image credit: my own DVD

 

Can Scallion do it? Yes he can! Sorry.

Image credit: my own DVD

 

Just look at him... takin' it like a champ! Some days we hit the recycling bag, and some days the recycling bag hits us. What matters is getting up again!

Image credit: my own DVD

 

He does some more sit-ups, more can crushing, and then... something epic happens. He blows a massive recycling bag up! #Winning

Image credit: my own DVD

And look at him eat that sushi! AND the "all you can eat" sign! Now that is perseverance, 'cause I'm not sure people who like sushi could stand eating that much at once -- not even sumo wrestlers who like sushi could eat that much!

(If you're a sumo wrestler who likes sushi and could eat this much, feel free to correct me)

Image credit: my own DVD

 

Watch him own those cans! Scallion is a serious boss!

Image credit: my own DVD

 

His skills with the mop make us green with envy... and maybe with motion sickness, too...

Image credit: my own DVD

 

And when we succeed and come out victorious... no feeling could be greater! :D

Image credit: my own DVD

 

So, whatever you're fighting, whatever you're working for, don't give up and don't lose hope. Because however it ends, you're a winner in God's eyes. And that's a feeling as welcome as flowers that bloom in the spring!

10 Reasons To Love VeggieTales In The House!

Most of you are probably aware by now that a new chapter in the history of VeggieTales is starting this Wednesday on Netflix. It's a sad thing to me that many people have mixed opinions on the new series. But having myself seen the first episode (thanks, DWA TV!), I can reassure you that if you love VT (and I know you do), you will still love In the House! And I'm here to present my review as a spoiler-free top ten list to show you why!

Image credit: DWA TV PR

1. The Character Designs
I know, I know... this is what people are having mixed opinions about! But as I stated on my previous post on In the House, the designs, while different, are actually really fun and charming! My favorite redesigns belong to Jerry, Petunia, Junior, and Pa. It wouldn't have normally thought eyes would look good on Pa Grape, but his new design is adorable! He reminds me of The Mayor in The Powerpuff Girls! :D 

All of the designs are delightful and well thought-out, and tied together with the great voice acting and beautiful animation, it makes for a seriously amazing show! I understand it'll take some getting used to for some, but it most likely won't take long for these "fresh" veggies to steal our hearts the way they have for decades.

Image credit: my own DVD

 

2. The Music
Songs and VeggieTales go together like baby carrots and ranch dip, and if you were worried that they would skimp on that in ITH, you have nothing to worry about! Every episode has a fun, Silly Song-worthy tune that still maintains the charm of the classic episodes' songs!

Oh, and the new theme song -- talk about catchy! The ITH theme is upbeat and a whole lot of fun, delivering an new sound to the show that still holds to its roots. Plus, Scott Krippayne worked on it, so that should be enough to get you excited! (What... just me?) 

Anyway, the new musicians at the helm, Terry Scott Taylor and Robert Watson, really capture the spirit and sound of the Veggies we've always known in a whole new way!

Image credit: my own DVD

 

3. The Art Direction Overall
There is so much detail in the big, big world our Veggies call home! The new artists, with Joe Spadaford's guidance and supervision, have created a whole new world surrounding the countertop that is just too amazing, right down to building the house's exterior itself! All of the locales are just loaded with attention to detail -- Pa Grape's shop being one of the most detailed of the bunch. And not a single prop has been reused from the original series; it's quite the feat to build everything from scratch! 

And if we need any more reasons to love it, the design overall calls back to the earliest VT episodes, with a wonky, slightly lopsided charm that one might remember from Junior's bedroom or LarryBoy's mansion. Along with the character designs, the artists on this show have made it truly a visual delight!

4. The Laughs
The trailer showcased on the Beauty and the Beet DVD was chock-full of comic action and hilarious slapstick humor. But if you were worried that the physical humor would tilt the balance between slapstick and one-liners, that is far from the case! One of the funniest lines I've ever heard in recent VeggieTales history was in the first five minutes of the first episode! The humor remains as it always has with VT, just a little faster-paced and bringing in a very wacky sense of comic action that kids (as well as adults) will love!

Image credit: my own DVD

 

5. The New Characters
It may not seem that the VT cast has changed much, but a few new faces have already made their debut thus far. Aside from a very colorful array of background characters, with some corn and broccoli in the mix, in the first two episodes, we mainly meet Ichabeezer and Rooney. 

Do not be confused, Ichabeezer isn't Mr. Nezzer, despite the resemblance. He's a bit more of a grumpy old man than Nezzer is -- though I could definitely see them being related. If he sounds a lot like Mr. Beet, that's because he is indeed voiced by the great Rob Paulsen! Ichabeezer is very practical, kinda gruff, and good at nailing the occasional bit of sarcasm (nothing VT wouldn't do already, of course). I do miss seeing Nezzer around, but Ichabeezer's an easy character to love (even if he doesn't want to come off that way). We also get to meet his olive-hound Rooney! I can't help but adore the concept they came up with, and they made quite the endearing character out of him! Boy, does that Rooney love fetch... a little too much, perhaps, for Ichabeezer, as you will see XD

And while other new characters are currently unknown, we do get some new approaches to the original cast with new voices, including Petunia, Laura, and Madame Blueberry, who all happen to be voiced by the great Tress MacNeille!

Petunia still keeps her roots as a very confident but kind girl, and I love the way she's played out in these first two episodes. She comes off in a way that makes her seem like she'd got it all together, but that trailer proves that she'll have a few off-moments :P I could talk more about Laura, but she overall hasn't changed as much, except that she's a bit more bubbly and excitable, which makes her all the more adorable. Madame Blueberry, however, has perhaps changed the most. Ms. MacNeille has made Madame a bit less French and more of a high-society lady, which is still very in touch with her character. Her role has been one of the most enjoyable to watch, especially since she's one of the main characters in the second episode.

All in all, the characters may have changed in looks and in voice, but they are still true to who they've been since '95, '98, and '05, and I can't help but love them.

6. The Animation
I know I've already mentioned this, but the animation really is great! It's very fluid, fast-paced, and dripping with charm and personality. What you might not've thought about concerning the new character designs is that they're actually made to animate a bit more realistically in some ways. Not that the original models weren't realistic at all, but the characters were also built differently back then. Larry's super bouncy personality is accentuated perfectly with the "bounciness" of the character animation! This dynamic, cartoony feel just suits VeggieTales to a T!

Image credit: my own DVD

 

7. The Pacing
ITH's faster pace is really a great thing. Not that there was anything wrong with the 45-minuters, of course. But ITH's pace works well for the shorter episode lengths, as well as for the overall feel of the show. That cartoony, or as Phil Vischer described in a video posted on the official VT Facebook, Tom and Jerry-like, vibe just makes the show all the more fun, and will definitely appeal to kids and parents alike. While some longtime VT fans may need to get used to this zippy approach, I think you'll get a feel for it after a couple episodes.

Plus, did I mention the well-placed goofy sound effects they use? Like that bit in the trailer where Bob and Larry's scream is a chicken squawk? I'm sorry, but I think that's pretty hilarious!

Image credit: my own DVD

 

8. The Heart
Of course, all this great comedy, art, and storytelling would be nothing without the heart. And ITH does not skimp! The first two episodes artfully teach about responsibility and the power of words in a way that only VT can do. They weave these truths into each episode masterfully and oh-so-originally! And there is no shortage of Bible verses, which I know we're all glad for after VeggieTales on TV tended to cut them out. These moments of honesty mixed in amidst the laughs make for a truly strong-hearted cartoon, not just your everyday Looney Tunes fare. Not that there's anything wrong with comedy for comedy's sake, of course... but we need our "veggies", too!

Image credit: my own DVD

 

9. The Exposure
Just think about this for a second: ITH is a Netflix exclusive right now. One of a handful of Christian-value-based programs on the service. Imagine how much exposure the show will get! How many kids and parents who may've never seen or heard of VT who will see it! How many lives just might be changed, even in a small way, because of this! Wow! ITH's new home on Netflix is the perfect place for it to be :)

10. The Quintessential Truth
Even though the show is structured differently than the 45-minuters, they always end with the most important truth, the one that VT has been saying since its beginning: 

"God made you special, and He loves you very much!" 

That is awesome.

So yes, I am more than excited now to be a part of this new era of VeggieTales! I can hardly wait to see more episodes in the near future as Bob and Larry take over their house... and houses all over the world! I hope I've helped in getting you truly excited for this seriously fun show! That's all the time I have for today, so remember...

Beauty And The Beet Review

Hey to all my fellow Veggie fans out there! I'm thrilled to be coming to you today with my first VT review!

Today is the everywhere release date of the newest episode Beauty and the Beet, and I'm here to give you the [spoiler-free] dish on this modern take on a "tale as old as time"!

(Thanks, DWA TV, for the advance copy!)

Image credit: DreamWorks TV PR

This episode introduces to us a family band known as The VeggieTones, whose road to fame hits a bump and lands them stuck in an old hotel run by a beast of a guy named Mr. Beet. But I'm getting ahead of myself... let's talk about the VeggieTones, and of course, our lead, Mirabelle.

 

I adore the VeggieTones' pop-country vibe, something unique and fun to add to VT's long list of musical styles. And I'm not sure they would've had that vibe without the band's lead singer -- and manager Larry Dill's youngest daughter -- Mirabelle, voiced by Kellie Pickler. I'd never heard Kellie Pickler's musical stylings prior to this, but clearly she's super talented both as a singer and actress. She not only brings an amazing amount of heart and soul to the wonderful songs, but also to Mirabelle's character. The opening number, "Show You Love", is a really fun, catchy-but-honest tune, paving the path for the story to come as we watch the VeggieTones go from hometown hits to rising stars at Vegetable Square Garden. (Don't you just love those puns? This episode has a ton of produce puns in the first few minutes alone!)

 

The first time we see Mirabelle off-stage, it's clear that she's indeed "strange but special" in the eyes of most (cookies for whoever picks up on all the Disney references in this review). While her sisters let the stagehands do the work of moving their instruments, Mirabelle readily lends a hand. But this is far from the only thing that makes this sweet potato such a sweetheart. Her character is just so genuine and real, which is especially seen as she continually shows kindness to Mr. Beet throughout the story. At the same time, she's not made out to be impossibly perfect. This might sound kind of weird, but I love that she and Mr. Beet have an argument. Mirabelle's honest and direct about her feelings on Mr. Beet's attitude, but she never once renounces the love she shows him, even in the midst of that frustrating confrontation. She makes it clear that she's not perfect, and because God loves her despite her imperfections, she's able to love others despite their imperfections. Mirabelle is a role model, y'all!

 

Then there's that beet, Finnegan J. Beet III. I had no idea what to expect of him -- after all, what would a Veggie variation of such a ferocious character as The Beast look like? But I was hugely impressed by the character they put together! When the VeggieTones are stuck at the old hotel, low on funds and their bus out of commission, the employees welcome them openly. But their manager, Mr. Beet, is not in a mood to listen, not interested in giving handouts, and pretty much makes it clear the only way the family's staying is if they work. He comes off so unlikable at first, just not having it, not caring, and only his cleverly timed sarcasm makes his personality at all appealing (well, his awesome voice actor, the great Rob Paulsen, helps too). But then Mirabelle comes along, convincing Mr. Beet to take a couple of singing lessons from her. And from there on, things slowly start to change -- the Beet's attitude, Mirabelle's impression of him, and even the run-down hotel itself!

Image credit: DreamWorks TV PR

 

I really love how Big Idea put their own unique spin on this familiar tale and the truth at the heart of it. Without hopefully giving too much away, Beauty and the Beet doesn't center around romantic love specifically (not that there's anything wrong with that), but a broader kind of love that is relatable to all of us. The bond that ultimately forms between Mirabelle and Finnegan is honest and real, and it gives me some serious warm fuzzies. With the episode's thrilling climax and heartfelt ending, its message of real, unconditional love is absolutely beautiful. There's nothing I can do to not give this episode a full-on five star review. Well done, Big Idea, well done. 

 

Yes, this episode truly has it all. The set pieces and lighting are just gorgeous; the character animation could not be more perfect; the songs are truly top-notch ("Love is the Song" is perhaps my favorite); there are some outrageously funny moments and lines... just the usual VeggieTales awesomeness! And as an extra musical bonus, we also get a pop-rockin' VeggieTones take on "Deck the Halls" to get us excited for the Christmas season!

 

Oh and speaking of songs, I have to talk about the new Silly Song, "Mac and Cheese"! It's a delightfully bouncy opera of Larry's grandparents, whose accidental meet-cute gave us the cheesy pasta dish we have today. Larry gets dressed up in a lot of historical outfits in this goodie as he portrays his grandfather -- and almost everyone else in his cucumber family! It's a lovely little Romeo-and-Juliet tale told with VT-style silliness, as two warring families come together with macaroni, cheese, and true love. (Bet you never thought you'd hear that sentence, did you?) I say it's a pretty grate addition to the Silly Song roster! Sorry, that was pretty... cheesy! 

 

(I could really go for some blue-box Kraft right about now...)

 

But in all seriousness, Beauty and the Beet is super fun and a sweet reminder of how we can love others as God loves us. So, go buy it now if you haven't yet -- I'm "certain as the sun rising in the east" that you'll love it! 

 

(OK, that last reference was a little over-the-top...)

VeggieTales In The House & The New Character Designs

This past week, Big Idea made a huge reveal: a lineup of updated character designs! On top of that, they made the official announcement of the new Netflix series, VeggieTales in the House!

It's a lot to take in at once, I know. So, I decided to take a moment and discuss this new chapter in VeggieTales history.

First of all, in case you haven't seen it yet, please don't judge this new style unfairly. It absolutely breaks my heart when people needlessly complain when new VeggieTales episodes don't meet their expectations. I know you have a right to your opinions, but what's most important is, no matter what they do, VT will always be a show whose core goal is to spread the message of God's love to children (and everyone else). No amount of spiffy animation or updated character designs can change that! Because then it wouldn't be VeggieTales, right?

 

So, with that in mind, here's the main lineup of new looks!

Image credit: The Official VeggieTales Facebook Page

In a brief video on the VeggieTales Facebook page, Mike Nawrocki said that the characters were originally designed with the limitations of early 90's CGI, so the folks at Big Idea decided it was time to give them a modern update for today's generation. Still, I admit I was kind of shocked at first that they'd redesign the characters after all these years. especially thinking back on the epic moment in VT history when Phil Vischer first pieced Larry together (read more in Me, Myself, and Bob). But these new designs are actually really fun, and I imagine Mr. Vischer might've loved to have made them look something like this a long time ago. 

 

I remember when I first saw the newly redesigned Jimmy and Jerry, who were the first to be revealed on social media. At first, I wasn't sure what to think, as they were both familiar, yet very different. I mean... colored irises! Eyebrows! New textures! But then, taking a closer look, I saw Jerry's stem "cowlick" and my tune began to change. It was so funny and gave him so much personality! People have been having trouble telling the gourd brothers apart for years, and now there's no way anyone could do that with that simple, subtle addition! Plus, the eye colors are a useful hint as well :) 

 

And the rest of the characters look super fun and really cool in this new style! Junior looks more like a true asparagus! Laura is absolutely darling! Madame Blueberry looks fabulous as a brunette! Petunia's new look is gorgeous! Bob and Larry don't look too far from their old charming selves -- though Larry looks little extra "goofy"! (And I mean that in the best way!) I have yet to see what some of the other characters, like Pa, Lunt, Nezzer, and Archibald will look like. But I figure they'll do it right (well, as long as they don't decide to give Pa and Lunt eyes, but I think that's highly unlikely).

 

(Update 2/23/23: deep apologies to the character designers. As noted in a later post, Pa Grape was adorable with eyes!)

So, after the characters got reintroduced, another Facebook video message was posted with Mike Nawrocki and In the House's creator, Doug Tenapel, officially announcing the new Netflix series and reassuring fans that it would still have the heart and message that VT's had since the beginning. Now, I'd heard months ago through Animation Magazine that In the House would be one of several new DreamWorks-owned Netflix programs, and I was very intrigued about it. I haven't yet heard any further news on what the show will be like, but I have some ideas.

 

Remember the last time VeggieTales attempted to adapt to a TV series? It was fun, but it didn't really work in that format. So my assumption is, instead of just repackaging classic episodes, they'll make new, exclusive adventures. I also believe that, instead of doing the "answering-kids'-questions-with-a-story" style, they'll likely go the route of telling more sitcom-style stories, exploring these characters in their daily lives outside of the countertop!

 

I could easily see the veggies living in an apartment complex, where Bob and Larry are roommates, the Carrots and the Asparaguses (Asparagi?) live next door, Madame Blueberry is the rich lady who lives in the penthouse, Petunia is the quintessential girl-next-door, and Jimmy and Jerry are the goofy landlords! (Old-school fans will know what I'm talking about on that last one XD) Whatever the show structure looks like in the end, though, I really do love the idea of seeing these guys on a regular basis, with five new 22-minute episodes arriving every few months! 

 

I don't think this means that the normal 50-minute DVD releases will halt, just that they will be coming out alongside the new show. I just love seeing Big Idea expanding their lineup! Since 3-2-1 Penguins ended I've been missing seeing a little extra Big Idea magic, so I imagine In the House will fill that gap splendidly! The only thing I don't know is whether this character design will be specifically for In the House, or if all the episodes to come will be in this style. It's been said the new series will arrive in the fall, and we already know that the new DVD episode Beauty and the Beet will be coming out in October with the classic style. So, who knows? I suppose we'll just have to wait and see. Either way, I'm excited about it!

So, if your first instinct was, "it's different, so I don't like it," I hope I was able to give you a new perspective on this new era of VeggieTales. Join me in the VT revelry! And don't forget to start up that Netflix account! You can rewatch Where's God When I'm Scared and Sweetpea Beauty on there while you're waiting :D
