Accepting That God Made You Uniquely You is the third episode of Very Veggie Silly Stories, which teaches a lesson in how God made us special.

Plot[]

In this episode the Veggie friends learn how everyone is made unique and special by God. Larry thinks his voice is too regular so he adds an autotune whistle to add something special to his voice. Seems Mr. Lunt's narwhal friends don't want their horns anymore and Winny calls in to say she can't smile for her school picture after losing her front tooth. Danny Gokey, a Grammy-nominated and Dove Award-winning artist, joins and shares how he has learned to embrace the person God has made him to be and that everyone's differences make each person unique and special.

Fun Facts[]

Trivia[]

This is the first episode of a few things:
- The first production in which Archibald is voiced by Joe Zieja and the first production in which he is voiced by someone other than Phil Vischer since A Very Veggie Christmas Live!.
- The first episode of Very Veggie Silly Stories to not include a Bible verse and the first production not to include one overall since LarryBoy and the Cape-Coat Caper.
- The first VeggieTales production to feature a Christian song recording artist since the end credits version of Enough to Share from Veggies in Space: The Fennel Frontier.
- The first episode to feature a real famous person as a guest star in some form since Noah's Ark, as well as the first episode to have one guest star as themself overall. It is also the first production in which a real famous person interacts with the veggies since Hosanna! Today's Top Worship Songs for Kids.
- The first production to feature the Silly Song Announcer since Noah's Ark and the first production to have an announcer of some sort for the Silly Song since The Good Shepherd. In this case, the Announcer's voice is briefly heard at the end of Love My Lips.
- The first production to acknowledge a kid's location since Noah's Ark. In this case, Winny is revealed to be from Amarillo, Texas.
Petunia reveals that she used to have very big teeth that grew faster than her head when she was young.

Remarks[]

Unlike the previous two episodes, the "Surprise Guest" alarm does not go off when the surprise guest (or in this case, Danny Gokey) arrives.
Love My Lips starts at the point where Larry first starts singing, completely cutting off the Silly Song Announcer's opening line.

Inside References[]

One of the things Larry finds when he looks for his autotune whistle at the beginning of the episode is a rubber ducky.
Archibald opens and closes the Fancy Facts about Cats segment the same way the Silly Song Announcer does so for many of the Silly Songs.

Real-World References[]

When Mr. Lunt first calls Bob and Larry, he makes two popular culture references:
- His joke about being "20,000 leagues under the sea" is a reference to the Jules Verne novel of the same name, as well as its 1954 film adaptation.
- His remark of "boldly going where no gourd has gone before" parodies the iconic opening quote from the original Star Trek television show.
The music that plays during the Fancy Facts about Cats segment is Mozart's "Eine Kleine Nachtmusik." This composition was previously heard (albeit briefly) in King Darius Suite and The Dinner Time Song.
Jimmy refers to crackers as being Larry's "kryptonite" after the latter fails the Formidable Phrases challenge with crackers stuffed in his mouth. This is an obvious reference to the weakness of DC Comics superhero, Superman.
