There have been over 150 episodes of the beloved children's cartoon VeggieTales across all its iterations, but not every idea the writers had made it onto your screens. As with any show, certain scenes and even whole episodes sometimes got left on the cutting room floor. Some episodes were even completely edited and voiced before being rejected last minute by studio heads.
Take a look at these 9 rejected VeggieTales episodes:
Bob the Tomato is sentenced to life in prison for a crime he didn't commit. Can hope survive brutal beatings and despair?
An American Tomato must choose between old love and aiding the Nazi resistance.
Petunia Rhubarb visits Larry the Cucumber in prison to gain insight into the mind of Buffalo Bob the Tomato, a serial killer skinning young peas in the city.
This time there are two! Bob the Tomato is back to protect Junior Asparagus from Larry-1000, a shapeshifting cucumber sent back in time from the future to kill the leader of the vegetable resistance.
Bob the Tomato becomes a mashed potato tycoon while feuding with a charismatic young preacher named Larry the Cucumber.
Bob stumbles upon an illegal melon deal gone wrong, inviting the wrath of a cucumber called to clean it up.
Larry the Cucumber, on his deathbed, fondly remembers playing with his favorite sled.
A squad of four vegetables is sent behind enemy lines to bring the last surviving radish home.
A U.S. vegetable is dispatched on a secret journey up a river in Cambodia to assassinate a rogue cucumber warlord. A horrifying look into the psyche of duty, war, and death.
