VeggieTales 2018
He y’all! How’s everyone been?
I know I haven’t been very active here since, well....
...forever.
But I just wanted to put some stuff out there about VeggieTales and it’s future as a franchise and as a series.
I’ve noticed three big things that have come up recently in the Veggie World, and I wanted to bring them to attention as best I can to the community.
1) VeggieTales is rebranding itself again.
For the past couple of weeks on all of the official VeggieTales social media platforms (Facebook, Twitter and Instagram), the original designs have been used in their posts. Not once have they mentioned or used any reference to and/or from the Netflix series in their posts. I find it very odd this choice was made as they clearly established their social media presence with the new character designs for the past 3 or 4 years. But it seems they are, in fact, rebranding and focusing on the old VeggieTales. Examples include many throwback posts and trivia to older shows and episodes if the original series. And did I forget to mention the old designs are back...? I did? Okay, nevermind them.
2) Someone emailed Big Idea’s customer service and got some interesting news...
A YouTuber by the name of “DudeTomato” uploaded a video about a potential release this holiday season from Big Idea, and at this point in Veggie History, that’s a pretty big deal. It’s a legitimately interesting video. You can check it out here: https://youtu.be/Z8kAzFEp4jo
3) Phil Vischer has been busy writing!
Trusty old VeggieTales creator Phil Vischer. I listen to Phil Visvher’s podcast quite regularly, and most recently there’s been a big change for Phil and his friends Christian Taylor and Skye Jathani. They’ve had to reformat the podcast to fit Phil new schedule, which, in this case, involves a lot more (you guessed it) writing! He’s said he’s working on a couple of books and a POTENTIAL NEW TV SERIES. Now, he didn’t say it was specifically or even implie its a VeggieTales, but I still think this news is noteworthy to the subject. I can’t help but try and connect the dots back to. The veggies. Heh...go figure.
So those things have been circling around my mind lately. I wanted to get them off my chest and hear from the small but mighty community of VeggieTales fans here on Tumblr.
So do what you guys think about what’s going on. Do you think it means anything? Are we really getting a new episode? Are the old veggies coming back? Is Phil Vischer writing for VeggieTales again? Am I just asking pointless questions?! Is the canoe wood or aluminum?!?!
...
...Heh. I got a little carried away there. Anyway...
Please reblog and spread the word. Feel free to add your opinion to my post! I’d love to hear from you all. I’d love to bring out the community again.
Well, that’s all from me I guess. Thanks for reading! I’m honored if you got this far down the post. I don’t I would have made it myself. ;)
Oh and one more thing. I’m gonna make a hashtag you can use if you continue this post.
It’s #veggies2018.
Nothing fancy (despite the chosen font) but it should get the job done if needed.
I hope to see and hear more from you soon!
