"We couldn't quite bring all of the Sunday morning values to Saturday morning"

VeggieTales is now on Saturday morning TV -- with a few adjustments:

Most notably, the NBC broadcasts do not end with VeggieTales' trademark line, "God made you special, and he loves you very much."

Had NBC asked for all or most of the God references to be cut..."we could never have agreed." But Big Idea decided the opportunity to be on television and compete with other shows seemed worth the edits.

"If I had known from the beginning how restrictive NBC would be, I probably would have declined to participate..."

I'm glad that Veggie Tales will get mainstream TV time. It's sad though that they had to edit it.
