Synopsis

Determined to present something "classy" for a change, Archibald Asparagus has taken over VeggieTales. Assisted by the French Peas, Archibald aims to elevate veggie programming with the world's first all-vegetable staging of Shakespeare's *Hamlet*, the first-ever "Classy Songs with Larry," and for the grand finale, the world premiere of what he believes to be Gilbert and Sullivan's lost musical: *Lyle the Kindly Viking*. However, working with the French Peas proves to be a recipe for disaster, and in the ensuing chaos and hilarity, Bob, Larry, and Junior learn an important lesson about sharing. Archibald, on the other hand, learns to never again work with the French Peas. Don't miss Junior Asparagus as "Lyle the Kindly Viking" in this musical adventure. The film encourages families to sing and laugh along as they learn that "sharing gets us more of what we really want—friends."

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 16

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
