    I’ve just been binging VeggieTales during quarantine out of boredom (and nostalgia because I ADORED this series as a child (still do!)), and I understood every oddly specific VeggieTales reference you made! 😆
    Reference #1: “Given LarryBoy nearly died twice as a result of Junior’s actions, this is a valid response on Alfred’s part.”
    Explanation: LarryBoy was almost eaten alive by Fib in “Larry-Boy! And The Fib From Outer Space!” & was nearly beaten to death by Rumor Weed in “Larry-Boy And The Rumor Weed.”
    Reference #2: “I’m starting to see why Alfred said Junior being spotted was disturbing news. It looks like he’s having a flashback to the pie war.”
    Explanation: In the episode titled “King George and the Ducky,” King George (Larry) sends Thomas (Junior) to a pie war, in hopes he will be killed, so he can get Thomas’ rubber ducky. Fun fact: this episode is a retelling of the Bible story, “David and Bathsheba…” I’m still wondering what Big Idea was thinking when they made that episode. 😆
    Reference #3: “…The Water Buffalo Song, the grandfather of Silly Songs. The one that started the whole thing.”
    Explanation: The Water Buffalo Song was the first “Silly Song with Larry,” a segment in VeggieTales, normally in between episode segments or after a cliffhanger in an episode, where Larry sings a silly song (quite self explanatory 😅). It’s also a reference to a line that Pa Grape says in the episode, “The Ultimate Silly Song Countdown.”
    Reference #4: “…Bob The Tomato, whose temptation is… food? Bit of an odd choice for Bob’s temptation, given we already have two VeggieTales characters with a thing for eating.”
    Explanation: The two characters are brothers named Jimmy & Jerry Gourd. Pretty much their only character trait is that they love to eat food. 😆
    Reference #5: “Oh hey! A Stuff-Mart reference! Cute.”
    Explanation: The Stuff-Mart is a shopping mall that first appeared in the episode, “Madame Blueberry.”
    Reference #6: “…but that ain’t gonna stop the purple and yellow, super fellow!”
    Explanation: “Purple and yellow, super fellow” is part of a lyric from the (SUPER catchy) LarryBoy theme song, from “Larry-Boy! And The Fib From Outer Space!”
    I would love to see more VeggieTales videos from you, Black Mage Maverick. Maybe one on the series itself and maybe the theatrical movies? I wouldn’t make your whole channel VeggieTales related though… there’s already a couple of those.

    I believe the Mushroom character is from Larry-Boy & the Rumor Weed. Said episode had a bunch of newly designed characters (ex. Chili pepper, pumpkin, Larry's nephew, Mayor Blueberry's niece/daughter) before they ended up getting replaced by just having carrots and peas ever since Jonah.

    I haven't watched VeggieTales (I'm not even a Christian), but I gotta say that the Bad Apple's scheme being themed after temptations is very clever, considering the Christian story of Adam and Eve.
    Though her having robotic spider legs just for the "webs of temptation" pun to work out is a bit weird, considering spiders have nothing to do with apples.

    Two platformer games I liked are licensed Garfield games. Those being the Sega Genesis Classic Garfield: Caught in the Act, and it's expansion released for the Sega CD, Sega Channel, and PC Garfield: The Lost Levels which is simply Garfield: Caught in the Act with two extra worlds that were cut from the Genesis release of Garfield: Caught in the Act. And Garfield: Lasagna World Tour a platformer for the PS2 it's the sequel to Garfield: Saving Arlene, now fun fact there were three Garfield games released for the PS2 those being Garfield, Garfield: Saving Arlene, and Garfield: Lasagna World Tour oddly enough Garfield: Lasagna World Tour was the only one given a release in the US as Garfield, and Garfield: Saving Arlene were PAL Exclusive. Anyway best way to describe Garfield: Lasagna World Tour is it has good ideas but falls short with some of them.

    Awesome review bro, loved the old Veggie Tales references, I too grew up with the old version, and it was good, your reaction to Juniors model was awesome, the songs do look boring but make sense why it's in ur because... Well veggie tales and songs kind of go together, the fact you showed the Bob the tomato meme picture was awesome... And I loved your coughing Joke with what's going on, got to cheer people up about this whole thing am I right? And yes, when you showed the GBA version briefly in the PS2 review, the graphics made me think of that Mario game also.
    Your reaction the the final mini game being pong was cool, my reaction too... Though now that I think about it for a kid it can really be Exilirating having there final test being a very old game that to then would take awhile to master.... My opinion.... And ya Bobs temptation being food..... Ya why that any way? They could have used Jimmy or Goard for this Scinerio instead of Bob... Eh oh well.
    All and all its a good review and ya see if you can talk about veggie Tales more, it's a fun time every time... Well see ya bro, God bless.
    P. S. I never played that PC flash game of Larry boy but I've heard of it and now that you mentioned it... Ya I wish I could play it too.... Wait what was the thing you mentioned, "The Way Back" Was it?... What is it and what does it do I never heard of it except for that time machine from the film Mr. Peabody and Sherman.

      In Lord of the Beans, he's named Randolph and helps Junior Asparagus, but in the chocolate bunny episode, he's encouraging temptation and mob mentality or some such.
