Summary: Ultimate silliness. . .
Review: . . .provided by "The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything"!This video is a "must-have" for all fans of Bob the Tomato, Larry the Cucumber and all the rest of your salad-drawer favorites! What the producers of "Veggie-Tales" have done in this video is to take the funniest of the "Silly Songs" from the last umpteen videos and present them in a "Top 10 Countdown" format, familiar to anyone who has ever listened to the radio or watched music television. In between the various songs, the viewer is treated to hysterical commentary by "The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything" as the tabulation machine routinely malfunctions. Not to be missed is Larry the Cucumber and Mr. Lunt as they rap to a Chinese restaurant menu. Finally, demonstrating once again that cartoons are presented on many levels, the countdown concludes with a "voting controversy" when Pa Grape "discovers" a hitherto unknown bag of "uncounted votes". Certainly a humorous spoof on the 2000 elections! This collection of songs from the "Veggie-Tales" series is highly recommended!

Summary: Little ones will dance away
Review: After accepting a babysitting job for a friend, I was introduced to this DVD by their one year old son. Like most little children, once is never enough. We had the DVD on most of the day and I knew all the songs by heart. But best of all, I wasn't completely sick of the show! The songs are silly, but catchy. And I got a kick out of watching the little boy dance to 'Barbara Manatee'. :) With the Christmas season coming up, this would be a delightful present to find under the tree.

Summary: There are better choices for children
Review: As a father of a young child, I purchased this based on the other reviews. While it wasn't bad, it was rather dificult to stomach. It tries way too hard to be funny and misses out on teaching the kids any kind of lesson. The songs are in fact "silly," but they aren't as catchy as some of the competition (i.e. the Wiggles). I cannot immagine being stuck in a car and having to listen to the DVD again and again for a long road trip. The video is mindless silly-ness on the same level as Looney Tunes, nothing more.

Summary: Love it!
Review: Boy, is this dvd funny! It really is nice to see a toddler enjoy a video this much. Mine just sits there mesmerized by his "cucumber" video. Very funny stuff - great for a rainy day or just when you've had a bad day at work!

Summary: WARNING: This tape contains high doeses of extreme sillines!
Review: Ever wondered which silly song from the Veggie Tales videos is the silliest? Well, you are just about to find out! Hosted by the Pirates Who Don't Do Anything (aka Larry the cucumber, Pa Grape, and Mr. Lunt), "The Ultimate Silly Song Countdown" is, well... just what is says. The countdown to which song is the silliest of all! After collecting votes from Veggie Tales fans, you'll be able to know the results. Is it "The Cheeseburger Song"? "I Love My Lips"? "The Hairbrush Song"? Find out as you watch this hilariously fun 43 minutes program! For a while I've been thinking that the Veggie Tales are only for younger kids and especially not for teenagers. But after getting a few tapes from my friends and watching them, I realized I was totally wrong! I just really LOVE the videos and I've been enjoying watching them with my parents! And probably my most favorite Veggie Tale is "The Ultimate Silly Song Countdown". The songs are just so silly that my parents and I were just laughing, laughing, and laughing! In our opinions though, are favorites are "Endangered Love" and "I Love My Lips". The "Water Buffalo Song" is pretty fun, too. And it's not just the songs which are great, whenever the countdown machine malfunctions, you get to watch the Pirates Who Don't Do Anything, who are also extremely silly. So if you like Veggie Tales, heard of it, or even if you've never even heard of it, I highly recommend you watch this tape! (And also, don't miss the dance mixes of the silly songs at the very end.) The other Veggie Tale videos are also very enjoyable with great Christian values, each teaching a very valuable lesson. One of my favorites is "King George and the Ducky", which teaches about selfishness.

Summary: Best Veggie-Tales Collection
Review: For anyone who watches Veggie-Tales on the edge of their seat just waiting for a "Silly Song with Larry" to come on; For anyone who has ever started humming a certain song about a cheeseburger while in line at a store; For anyone who has ever wondered where their Water-Buffalo is; For anyone who has ever been to Lip Rehab in Poland and searched for someone with similar experiences of their own to talk with about because I mean how many people have actually had terrible accidents involving their lips that they can talk about with someone else, it's such a rare occurence, unless someone delibarately tries to hit you in the lip, or even throw somehting so it bounces off your nose and hits your lip, giving you a broken nose as well as two busted lips, but maybe they were just mad because you kept yelling "USTA!" at them.
This video is for you.

Summary: Re-hash of old stuff
Review: How many times can you re-mix and sell old stuff. If you have many of the other titles on VHS, your kids may be bored with this countdown. Supposedly a top ten list, it includes silly songs that may not be your favorites and excludes some that you are sure should be on there. I would skip this one.

Summary: "If you like to talk to tomatoes..." :)
Review: I absolutely adore VeggieTales films, they are so much fun and are totally hilarious. :) Before I deliberate upon this edition to the VeggieTales film collection, I just have one thing to say. If you haven't seen VeggieTales before, no matter what age you are, go to your local film store, get online,etc... wherever it is that you buy films, and purchase at least one, I don't believe anyone could be sorry after buying a VeggieTales animated film. :)
Ok, here goes on my review... ;) Veggie Tales- The Ultimate Silly Song Countdown is the, um, Ultimate Countdown to discover just which of Larry's Silly Songs are the whipped cream of the banana split, the cream of the crop, the cheese of a cheeseburger, well, you get the point. Included in The Ultimate Countdown are wonderful songs such as, "Barbara Manatee," "the Pirates who don't do anything," "The Yodeling Veterinarian of the Alps." As well as others, but which one will be the #1 Silly Song? :) My lips are sealed, to find out all you have to do is borrow, rent, or purchase it, :) how much better could it be? :D

Summary: VeggieTales -- Preachy???
Review: I am a woman in my 20's, and used to enjoy renting the VeggieTales videos to watch with my roommate when I was living in Boston. We always got a huge kick out of the witty humor of these videos. Now that the silly songs are gathered together on one DVD, it is a nice opportunity to own these funny highlights. There are so many catchy songs that will stick in your head (which you may, or may not want!). For people who already own the videos, this might be one to rent or borrow rather than buy, as others have already pointed out there is not much that is new on the DVD. To access the Easter Eggs, go to the chapter selection screen. Highlight one of the chapter segments at the bottom (5-8, 9-12) push the number 9 on your remote, and hit enter. There is a different hidden clip for each chapter selection screen. Seeing the Japanese version of "Hairbrush" was amusing! Finally, in answer to the reviewer who complained that the series is too "preachy"-- are you serious? This is, after all, a Judeo-Christian series. That is the point of the videos. The creators have a right to make a show based on religious and moral views if they so wish. I have not seen every episode, but many of the plot-lines do not even have to do with the Bible. One teaches that a small lie can quickly grow into a big one. Another teaches that all the possessions in the world cannot make a person truly happy. At the very end of the show, one Bible verse is quoted that backs up the message of the episode. If you consider that "preachy," then this must be a difficult world for you to live in. I don't mean to sound rude, but I feel this is an excellent program mainly because of its lack of "ramming God down a person's throat" and I was surprised to hear someone make it sound like it was that kind of show. A handful of the episodes are based on well-known Old Testament stories, and that is as religious as the show gets. This DVD is certain to entertain and delight folks of all ages with its good, clean fun -- buy it and share it!
