In 2006, '''VeggieTales''' was aired on NBC's former children's programming block, Qubo (which is now its own full-fledged TV channel). Though similar to the home video series, these episodes featured a brand new theme song along with bridging segments taking place at Bob's house. But what Phil Vischer didn't know was that NBC had a rule that its programs could not advocate any religous point of view. Phil Vischer said that if he knew that NBC had a restriction against religous programs, he wouldn't have gave them the rights. Strangely, retellings of bible stories still aired. And with the exception of the theme song, none of these NBC episodes have surfaced on the internet. It is likely due to the fact that the stories of every episode were already available on DVD which gave people little reason to record the episodes (outside of the bridging beginning and end segments and some edits for either religious reasons or time). Some NBC episodes are on YouTube in Spanish.

Though similar to the home video series, these episodes featured a brand new theme song along with bridging segments taking place at Bob's house. In addition, many of the episodes saw edits to fit 22 minutes, some minor (like the "Larry-Boy" episodes taking out title cards, and shortening scenes), others very major (like "The Toy That Saved Christmas", where the entire ending climax was cut). But what Phil Vischer didn't know was that NBC had a rule that its programs could not advocate any religious point of view. Phil Vischer said that if he knew that NBC had a restriction against religious programs, he wouldn't have given them the rights. Strangely, retellings of Bible stories still aired.  
 
This version of the series has never been officially released on home video of any kind. Over the last few years, upon attention being gained of the series being lost, the show has popped up in syndication on some local networks, and most of the episodes have been found, including some that went unaired on NBC.
 
In 2020, four episodes of this series ("The Asparagus Of La Mancha", "Dr. Jiggle and Mr. Sly", "Bully Trouble" and "Babysitter In Denile") were officially posted on IMDB TV by Big Idea, alongside other VeggieTales content. However, after the service was renamed Freevee in 2022, these episodes were moved to PureFlix.

In 2006, VeggieTales was aired on NBC's former children's programming block, Qubo (which became its own full-fledged TV channel that lasted until 2021). Though similar to the home video series, these episodes featured a brand new theme song along with bridging segments taking place at Bob's house. In addition, many of the episodes saw edits to fit 22 minutes, some minor (like the "Larry-Boy" episodes taking out title cards, and shortening scenes), others very major (like "The Toy That Saved Christmas", where the entire ending climax was cut). But what Phil Vischer didn't know was that NBC had a rule that its programs could not advocate any religious point of view. Phil Vischer said that if he knew that NBC had a restriction against religious programs, he wouldn't have given them the rights. Strangely, retellings of Bible stories still aired.

This version of the series has never been officially released on home video of any kind. Over the last few years, upon attention being gained of the series being lost, the show has popped up in syndication on some local networks, and most of the episodes have been found, including some that went unaired on NBC.

In 2020, four episodes of this series ("The Asparagus Of La Mancha", "Dr. Jiggle and Mr. Sly", "Bully Trouble" and "Babysitter In Denile") were officially posted on IMDB TV by Big Idea, alongside other VeggieTales content. However, after the service was renamed Freevee in 2022, these episodes were moved to PureFlix.

Rumored

One segment of the direct-to-DVD release "God Made You Special", called Bob's Vacation, is rumored to have been made into a TV episode as the Season 2 premiere, as some websites list it before "The Ballad of Little Joe".[1] However there is no other proof of its existence as a TV episode, and the airdate listed is actually the release date of the home video, as are other home video-only releases included on such lists. Further disproving this theory, Big Idea's website would tell what episodes air that coming weekend on its homepage, and an archived version of it the day before the supposed airdate shows a rerun of "Dr. Jiggle and Mr. Sly".[2] Also because there's no way to make a 10-minute episode into a 22.
