The little snoodle could see god because he needed to. He needed his maker to comfort and encourage him like a parent. This is a sweet story, and I've always loved the part where god comes in and speaks his kind wisdom
It's weird because when I was a kid when Snoodle's Tale came out, I thought the Snoodle story was meh at best and thought it was weird that a story with a different group of characters was told in a show called VeggieTales. Rewatching it as an adult, it honestly become one of my favorite episodes. I've dealt with a lot of self-confidence issues all throughout my teenage and young adult years, and I feel like had I had watched A Snoodles Tale during that timespan, it would have helped me out just a little bit more. I greatly appreciated this episode, but I respect your opinion on it.
Fun fact: in this episode and this one only, Jimmy Gourd doesn't have his stem on his head. The reason is because the production team forgot to sketch it on the storyboards so the animators just copied it and forgot about it.
I liked A Snoodle's Tales because it helped me accept myself more. You see I saw the story as someone being told what they can or can't do because of their disability. As someone who has a disability this really helped me by reminding me of what Veggiestales always says. That God made me special, he loves me, and he sees me as perfect and made in his image. Also please stop using the word Retarded in your videos. Thank you!
A Snoodle's Tale was actually the first Veggietales i ever watched (i was probably 4). Back then, I thought it was amazing. Now I'm not so interested and found Dr. Jiggle more entertaining. Also the SUV song is just teaching people how to flirt at a gas station. And it endorses every product in America.
And I want to say this first off. I love your reviews! Do I disagree on things, yes. Do I hate this serious because of that fact? NEVER! THIS IS AMAZING!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING THESE! A gal on RUclips was making these as well but stopped around episode 2. So I'm so thankful for you to do this!
Good review, as always. I respect your opinion on all this, but personally I disagree with a few things. I wouldn't put this episode under Esther because as you said, Dr. Jiggle and Mr. Sly was an entertaining part of the episode, whereas Esther was less entertaining and more bland. The SUV Song, while nowhere near my favorite, I still find it good. You found it to be shoehorned in, but I don't believe that's the case. In the audio commentary for Madame Blueberry, which was recorded before Big Idea got bought out, Mike Nawrocki said the SUV Larry was driving in that episode was the inspiration for The SUV Song, which he said would be in a future episode, so the song was already in the works when A Snoodle's Tale was still in its early stages. While I'm not a fan of the Snoodle portion of the episode either, I actually liked some of the rhymes in the story. The Snoodle talking when it was first born, as well as the Snoodle seeing God, didn't bother me much. I agree with pretty much everything else you said though. And again, I respect your opinion on all this. I just thought I'd say what I thought about this.
First one not done by Big Idea. I guess in this episode's favor it kinda works. I have to admit I took the Dr. Jiggle and Mr. Sly for granted a bit (other than the song and dance scenes) and I'm glad you reviewed it and helped me remember what was good about it. The "Silly Song" (if it could be called that) was not really funny and changed the subject too many times from "I like your car" to "We could be heroes". What? While I kinda like it, I remember skipping that song often. (Sorry to say) I actually like Snoodle's Tale (call it a guilty pleasure I guess) mainly for the message about how in spite of what people may say about you, God knows who you are. Maybe it wasn't explored in depth enough or could have dived into "Man looks at outward appearances, but the Lord looks at the heart" (1 Samuel 16:7b), but that's what I always got out of it. The highlight for me was of course the scene where he was with "God" and is told by his creator what he truly is whereas the bullies had no idea what they were saying. While it may be lazy in many areas (like do any of the snoodles know "God", ever see Him, or just deny Him altogether especially as the builder of the Tower?), I assure you it's not as lazy as Snooderella. That one was more lazy, more uninteresting, too generic, and delivers the exact same message as the first (except this time it's unnecessarily all girly), while this one was just kept things simple. Yeah, throwing in Flibber-o-loo was lazy. I'm almost wondering if the new company that took over just threw it in to say "Oh yeah we are on the same page as VeggieTales and the company's going to be just fine." I've seen movies/shows do a better job at getting that message across.
I like the 2004-2008 era a lot. I think that the logo is connected somewhat with the decline in quality. I feel that the bland 2008 logo was probably not Big Idea's decision, and was forced in by Classic Media. Big River Rescue was the last VeggieTales episode I watched. When the new logo came along, I jumped ship from the franchise. This is evidenced by how Big River Rescue was the last VeggieTales episode where Phil Vischer had major creative control. For this reason, I split the franchise into four eras: 1993-2004, 2004-2008, 2008-2015, and 2015-2018.
Mr. Butterbun: “You are special just the way God made you” Also Mr. Butterbun: Calls Mr. Sly a “Disco Dancing Villain”, “Cooky Creature” “Monster”, and “Flashy Fiend”. Even after he found that he and Dr. Jiggle were the same person. He still says “You dressed up as that cooky creature so people wouldn’t laugh at you?” to him Not only Mr. Butterbun is a hypocrite but also a bully
I would also be terrified of a disco-dancing alien appearing in 1800s London only at night to dance and then disappear I think what's important is that once the mystery is gone, Butterbun expresses acceptance of his friend

I genuinely think A Snoodle's Tale is the best Veggietales episode, at least post-Jonah. Gonna write about it elsewhere in this comment section
Fun fact: in this episode and this one only, Jimmy Gourd doesn't have his stem on his head. The reason is because the production team forgot to sketch it on the storyboards so the animators just copied it and forgot about it.
Jimmy didn’t have his stem in Little Joe or An Easter Carol either.
A Snoodles Tale is one of my most favorite Veggietales episodes right next to Esther which is another favorite. I have the VHS version.

That song, "I Want to Dance" reminds me of Dancy Pantalones in "Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends", because he's a dance master.

Same.

+MusicalRose Everyone is free to disagree. Thanks for watching. I really enjoy making these for you all and myself.
+Christian Nutrition and thank you for sticking with it! Can't wait for the special episodes review's.
+Christian Nutrition what is the song that was played when Mr. Sly dances the third time?
+The Powerful Lancelot of Sonic/IC Studios Do you mean at 07:31? That is "Hot Stuff" By Donna Summer.
Looks like you could use a hug talking about A Snoodles Tale.
The Snoodle's Tale really reminded me of Max Lucado's Punachello.

+crazybillykook No problem man. It is all a matter of opinion when it comes to liking/disliking something.
9:27 DO YOU LIKE GREEN EGGS AND HAM?!?

1993-2001
2002-2006
2007-2009
2010-2014
2014-2017
2019- onwards
I really like 2002-2006
As catchy as this SUV Larry song is, I've noticed that the lyrics are kinda rushed and not good. So, I put the silly song at a meh rating.
You forgot the to say this is the "Director's Cut" episode of CN.
Dr.Jekyll and Mr.Hyde is the best book
This story challenged me about why I'm here or why The Lord bother to create all in his copyright
Wasn't there a few people in the bible who saw God? Like Moses. Or at least part of God like his hand or backside?
Moses saw God’s hand and back, he couldn’t look on God’s face or he would die.
#VEGGIETALES IN THE HOUSE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Didn't big idea go with a Dr. Sues style with "Are You my Neighbor?"
I like Dr. Jiggle and Mr. Sly. I can do without the rest.
good review
Mr. Butterbun: “You are special just the way God made you”
Also Mr. Butterbun: Calls Mr. Sly a “Disco Dancing Villain”, “Cooky Creature” “Monster”, and “Flashy Fiend”. Even after he found that he and Dr. Jiggle were the same person. He still says “You dressed up as that cooky creature so people wouldn’t laugh at you?” to him
Not only Mr. Butterbun is a hypocrite but also a bully
I would also be terrified of a disco-dancing alien appearing in 1800s London only at night to dance and then disappear
I think what's important is that once the mystery is gone, Butterbun expresses acceptance of his friend
Dr. jiggle and Mr. slie BUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
