VeggieTales in the House — A New Series on Netflix

Posted on April 14, 2015 at 7:00 am

Bob, Larry and the Veggie crew are back in five all-new, 22-minute episodes of the Netflix original series VeggieTales In the House! The brand-new episodes will be available for Netflix members to watch instantly this Friday, April 17.

We are delighted to be able to present an exclusive clip:

The newest episodes of the Emmy® Award-nominated series include “The Birthday Thief,” in which LarryBoy (that’s Larry the Cucumber’s super-hero alter ego) has to defeat the nefarious Motato; “Cool as a Cucumber,” which finds Larry donning a pair of sunglasses to fit in; and “Junior Gets a Pet” – the world’s first-ever television appearance by a Buffalorange!

Every episode also includes brand-new songs and, of course, the famous closing phrase that has been at the heart of VeggieTales from the beginning: “God made you special, and He loves you very much.”

PBS’s Wild Kratts is one of my favorite series for families. I love the relationship between the two real-life Kratt brothers and their enthusiasm and sense of adventure. The episodes have a nice balance between adventure, humor, and information about animals and nature. They have some fun and educational online games as well.

Their latest DVD, available April 14, 2015, is Wild Kratts: Shark-Tastic.

It includes these episodes:

1. Stuck on Sharks – Exploring the mysterious great white shark.
2. Octopus Wildkratticus – The team must save a 7 tentacle octopus.
3. Tortuga Tune-Up – The team learns from a hawksbill sea turtle how to defend against a tiger shark.
4. Speaking Dolphinese – The teams learns the dolphin language.

I have a copy to give away, along with a supplementary booklet! Send me an email at moviemom@moviemom.com with Kratts in the subject line and tell me your favorite undersea creature. Don’t forget your address! (US addresses only) I will pick a winner at random on April 20, 2015.

Trailer: I’ll See You in My Dreams with Blythe Danner

Posted on April 10, 2015 at 8:00 am

Blythe Danner is the American equivalent to Helen Mirren — endlessly elegant, witty, radiant. I can’t wait to see this film, which shares its name with the Gus Kahn song and the biopic about Gus Kahn starring Danny Thomas and Doris Day.
