Friday OT Thread: Busy, busy bees

When you take a step back and look at it, VeggieTales is a monumentally bizarre creation. For those of you who didn’t grow up in Sunday School or AWANA or private Christian school or homeschool, VeggieTales is an animated kids series that teaches lessons to kids. These lessons can be broader and not explicitly Christian—Larry Boy and the Fib from Outer Space, for instance, deals with how lying can get you into all sorts of trouble—but some are simply depictions of Bible stories. By talking vegetables. It’s weird.

Anyway, the 1995 episode “Are You My Neighbor?” deals with the story of the Good Samaritan, and it features a song sung by vegetables about being busy.
