VeggieTales (1993)

Good for youngsters, entertaining enough for adults

I watched Veggietales as a kid and now as a parent I can still appreciate the humor and characters. I'll admit that most Christian shows can be pretty corny but Veggietales has a strong entertainment value much as it does for the themes. The pop culture nods, silly songs and characters can be compared to an Animaniacs for slightly younger viewers.

The series has stretched out to TV, home viewing and movies. I'd say the best experience is the home viewing as the episodes on TV are edited for time and, to lessor extent, removing a little of the Christian lines. The videos also include fun silly song intermission breaks in the episode which are pretty entertaining.

I can only knock the show currently for its slower and less flashy older episodes and a couple of so-so episodes.
