VeggieTales in the House is a series that is exclusive to Netflix that began streaming November 26th, 2014, and the fourth show created by Big Idea. This series marks the debut of the new redesigns of the VeggieTales cast.
History
On March 14, 2014, Netflix announced a partnership with DreamWorks to release three animated shows exclusively on its platform later that year. The three shows were All Hail King Julien, The Adventures of Puss in Boots, and, of course, VeggieTales in the House.[1]
This series introduces redesigns of the main cast from VeggieTales, which were revealed around Summer 2014. The reception for these designs was very negative, with some fans attempting to petition for the designs to be replaced.[2] Show designer Joe Spadaford stated that the designs were changed because the older character models were starting to become outdated and hard to animate, as some of the rigging hadn't been updated since 2000. Phil Vischer stated on a podcast that he liked the new designs, regardless of the differences from the originals.
According to Phil on his podcast and an article from DECIDER, the series was initially ordered for 150 shorts lasting three years.[3]
The first five episodes of Season 1 were released on Netflix November 26th, 2014. Episodes 6 to 10 were released on January 30th, 2015. Episodes 11 to 15 were released on April 17th, 2015. Season 2 premiered on September 25th, 2015. Season 3 premiered on March 25th, 2016. Season 4 premiered on September 23rd, 2016.
A sequel series called VeggieTales in the City aired on February 24th, 2017, with a second season in September.
The series was removed from Netflix on September 23rd, 2022, six years after the release of the fourth and final season.[4]

Fun Facts
- Season 1 is the first season to be split, and the only season in the show to have more than 13 episodes.
- This is the first series that Big Idea created for Netflix that has been released in various languages.
- Sometime after production for the fourth series concluded, the other language dubs were released on the American Netflix service, with the exception of the Finnish dub.
- The show is said to take place in an alternate universe, due to the contradictions and designs.
- A lot of longtime fans of VeggieTales blamed DreamWorks for the vegetable's redesigns when it was actually Big Idea's decision to redesign them due to the fact that their original designs were based off of designs via temporary animation software in the 90s.
- Apart from guest voices (China Anne McClain, Tony Hale, Jon Heder, etcetera), Rob Paulsen voices most of the male characters that were not already voiced by Mike Nawrocki or Phil Vischer, and Tress MacNeille voices most of the female characters (as well as Junior Asparagus).
- Rob Paulsen, who voiced Mr. Beet in Beauty and the Beet, voices Ichabeezer, a replacement for Mr. Nezzer.
- Season 4 seems to be foreshadowing of VeggieTales in the City.
