Status: Partially Found

Os Amigos Vegetais (translated into English as The Vegetable Friends), was a Brazilian Christian children's live-action television program which was a spin-off of the American Christian CGI-animated video series VeggieTales.

In 1996, VeggieTales launched in Brazil as Os Vegetais, and in 2004 or 2005, the popularity of the show led to Big Idea Brasil and Top Tape wanting to produce a spin-off series, named Os Amigos Vegetais. The series aired 11 one-hour episodes on Rede Record, premiering on March 5, 2005, airing every Saturday at 10:00 AM and reached third place in network ratings. The show's general director was Marlene Mattos, who was also the producer of Xuxa, and its director was Tininha Araújo. Reruns of the show air on Rede Boas Novas from time to time.

Very little is known about the show, as it is not easy to find on the Internet. As of now, only three complete episodes and 7 minutes of another episode can be found online.
