I am a big fan of Veggie Tales! Having 4 other little ones around that share my enthusiasm for Veggie humor we were making references at the table when Adam and I began to see some of the parallels between Monty Python and Veggie Tales. Here are a few. I'm sure there are a lot more, but these stuck out the most.
(VT) Archie Asparagus interrupting Silly Songs "Stop being so Silly!"
VS
(MP) " Stop being so silly and Get On With It"
(VT) The French Peas being Fish Slappers in Jonah
VS
(MP) Fish Slapping skit
French Peas on the Wall of Jericho....
VS
(MP) French Guard in The Holy Grail
This cracked me up a little bit. I like to see where some of the creators of VT might have used scenes as inspirations to add some humor and twists to their versions of bible stories.
I know I'm not the first to see this parallel. Actually I'm about a decade late, but it is funny not to share.
