This is a list of characters from VeggieTales, an American computer-generated children's series and franchise. The series presents life lessons from a biblical world view featuring various garden-variety vegetable characters retelling Bible stories and parodying pop culture. Many of the main characters were established in the early episodes of the direct-to-video series, such as Bob the Tomato, Larry the Cucumber, Junior Asparagus and Laura Carrot, among a bushel of other produce.

Bob the Tomato is a friendly but slightly high-strung tomato and host of VeggieTales. As the creator and original voice of the character, Phil Vischer often cites Bob as being "my inner Mr. Rogers...though a frustrated Mr. Rogers, because he couldn’t get things to go as smoothly."^[1] Alongside his best friend, Larry the Cucumber, the pair introduce and wrap-up almost every show and respond to viewer mail on a kitchen countertop. Bob plays character roles in the story segments and other times is simply the narrator or storyteller. He also has a tech-savvy superhero alter-ego Thingamabob, who is a member of the League of Incredible Vegetables. Bob also partakes in some of the "Silly Songs with Larry" segments, even performing his own Silly Song, "Lance the Turtle".

Bob made his first appearance in a 1992 short entitled "VeggieTales Promo: Take 38", where he gives a passionate speech pitching the concept of VeggieTales to potential investors. Eventually, he made his public debut in 1993 with the episode "Where's God When I'm S-Scared?". Bob plays himself in "Tales from the Crisper", where he tries to comfort Junior Asparagus with the song "God is Bigger". The end of this episode also started a running gag in which Bob gets interrupted by the "What We Have Learned" wrap-up song. He regularly gets annoyed having to wait for the song to finish so he and Larry can then discuss the lesson of the show and receive a Bible verse from Qwerty.

In the Netflix original series VeggieTales in the House and VeggieTales in the City, Bob is seen living with Larry inside a small Veggie-sized house inside a human-sized house on the kitchen countertop from the original direct-to-video series. He is portrayed engaging in slice of life activities instead of focusing on hosting the show. Bob also has various jobs, mostly working part-time at Pa Grape's General Store. At the end of the series, Bob becomes the owner. Bob is also shown to have an affinity for sock collecting and weather observation. For The VeggieTales Show, Bob acts more like he did in the original series, acting as the director and master of ceremonies for the stage shows the Veggies put on in Mr. Nezzer's theater. Here, his role is much more akin to that of Kermit the Frog from The Muppet Show, which was a direct inspiration for this series.^[2] Bob also reprises his role as Thingamabob in the "LarryBoy" episodes.

Larry the Cucumber is a silly cucumber, Bob's best friend, and co-host of VeggieTales. Larry has a singular tooth and a quirky, child-like personality to match in contrast to the more mature Bob. Regarding the basic relationship of Bob and Larry, Phil Vischer has stated that "Bob wants to help kids, Larry wants to help Bob."^[3] But because Larry is rather scatterbrained, he and Bob sometimes disagree about how to teach a lesson or tell a story. Sometimes, Larry faces similar struggles to the kids who send in fan mail, and ends up learning an episode's lesson along with the viewer. In the story segments, Larry plays many character roles and has several recurring ones, such as Minnesota Cuke (a parody of Indiana Jones), the first mate of the Pirates Who Don't Do Anything, and the comical plunger-headed superhero LarryBoy. Larry also has his own recurring musical segment called "Silly Songs with Larry", in which he performs humorous musical numbers. This became a very popular staple of VeggieTales and has been featured in nearly every episode of the original series, including several sing-along and compilation videos.

Phil Vischer first conceived Larry as a chocolate bar, but Vischer's wife, Lisa, said that parents would not like videos starring a candy bar because it might encourage poor eating habits.^[4] After being turned into a cucumber, Larry was used to make a 20-second animation test called "Mr. Cuke's Screen Test", which was the genesis of VeggieTales. Larry then appeared in "VeggieTales Promo: Take 38" chasing after his blue wind-up lobster while Bob gave his speech. However, Larry's public debut was in the first episode, "Where's God When I'm S-Scared?". Throughout the episode, he is established as the source of most of the jokes, including physical gags and silly dialogue. For the first two episodes, Mike Nawrocki performed Larry's voice differently, sounding much lower and dopier. He later changed the voice to a higher pitch with a slight lisp in the third episode, "Are You My Neighbor?". Gradually, Larry's speech impediment became less prominent with each new video release.

In VeggieTales in the House and VeggieTales in the City, Larry is Bob's roommate in an Odd Couple scenario, with Larry being the Oscar to Bob's Felix. In these series, Larry's interests and hobbies consist of such silly activities as eating sardines, riding his bike on the ceiling, and playing make-believe. Like Bob, he is also seen working part-time jobs, such as an ice cream vendor and at Pa Grape's General Store. He is also still seen as LarryBoy, haphazardly fighting crime and facing off against his arch-enemy of the series: Motato. In The VeggieTales Show, Larry acts more like his old self, often presenting wacky ideas backstage before the shows begin and still writing occasional Silly Songs, including writing the series' theme song as seen in the pilot episode "God Wants Us To Make Peace". Larry also reprises his role as LarryBoy in the episodes that take place outside the theater setting, often re-appearing with The League of Incredible Vegetables.

Junior Asparagus is a green little asparagus who is one of the co-stars of VeggieTales. A typical five-year-old boy, but his curiosity often leads him in trouble. He often wears a yellow hat with a red brim. Junior has had several starring roles in the series, including his debut in "Where's God When I'm S-Scared?" as well as "Dave and the Giant Pickle", "Lyle the Kindly Viking", "Lord of the Beans", and "Pistachio – The Little Boy That Woodn't". He also has a prominent role in most "LarryBoy" episodes, eventually becoming the superhero in training Ricochet in "The League of Incredible Vegetables". In the "Silly Songs", Junior is a band member of Boyz in the Sink, alongside Larry, Mr. Lunt, and Jimmy. He also has his own bedtime-themed Silly Song called "Goodnight Junior". Junior is also one of the few characters who has hosted the show with Bob instead of Larry, as seen in the episodes "Josh and the Big Wall!" and "Abe and the Amazing Promise".

In VeggieTales in the House and VeggieTales in the City, Junior is seen living with his family in a house made from a human-sized refrigerator. He is shown doing more common activities, like going to elementary school or playing with his friends or his dad. He also got a new super alter-ego named Junior Jetpack, who sometimes fights alongside LarryBoy. In The VeggieTales Show, Junior has a prominent role helping perform in the shows put on in the theater. Junior is revealed to be homeschooled in this series, allowing him to participate in the shows and rehearsals during the day. He also reprises his roles as Dave from "Dave and the Giant Pickle" in the episode "Little Things Matter" and as Ricochet in some of the "LarryBoy" episodes.

Petunia Rhubarb is a red-headed rhubarb and one of the lead female protagonist in the series. She has a bubbly personality and is a strong advocate for such values as inner beauty, self-worth and empathy. Petunia does not resemble a typical rhubarb, having solid-green skin and appears more humanoid in her design and features. She often dresses in business-casual clothes outside the stories, and has red hair that is usually braided into a ponytail. Her first appearance was in "Duke and the Great Pie War" playing the part of Princess "Sweet Sweet" Petunia – the scorned "Ruth" figure waiting to be redeemed by Larry's "Boaz". Because of this, Petunia is often paired with Larry as a female co-star. She later appeared as the title character in another princess-themed episode, "Sweetpea Beauty". Petunia also has a reoccurring role in the LarryBoy episodes as a reporter and later her own fashionista super alter-ego Vogue. She also sang alongside Larry in the Silly Song, "Where Have All The Staplers Gone?".

In VeggieTales in the House and VeggieTales in the City, she appears as the owner of a flower shop and works alongside her best friend Tina Celerina. She appears with her hair unbraided and wearing a purple flower-print dress. Petunia also worked part-time at Pa Grape's General Store early on in the series, and is seen helping Archibald in various episodes as an assistant. In The VeggieTales Show, she is the leader of the VeggieTales Fan Club and provides the letters from kids to help inspire the theme for each show. She also reprises her role as Vogue in some of the "LarryBoy" episodes.

Laura Carrot is a young carrot and Junior's best friend. She has freckles and yellow hair that is tied into pigtails. She first appeared in "The Story of Flibber-o-loo" as a background character and got her first major speaking role in "Rack, Shack and Benny". Laura doesn't get many starring roles, but often gets a chance in the spotlight when a young female lead is needed. For example, in "Princess and the Popstar" she plays Princess Poppyseed, in "Babysitter in De-Nile" she plays Miriam, and in "Celery Night Fever" she plays herself. Her more notable supporting roles include the first two "LarryBoy" episodes, "Saint Nicholas: A Story of Joyful Giving", and starring in the subplot of the Jonah feature film. Laura also has her own Silly Song titled "B.F.F" where she sings with her friend Lavinia while using texting slang for lyrics.

In VeggieTales in the House and VeggieTales in the City, Laura appears much more overall, starring in many episodes as the lead character. She appears in the first episode, learning a lesson in responsibility alongside Larry while earning money to adopt puppies. Laura is also shown having an affinity for other animals, such as owning a pet guppy, starting an animal-sitting service, and even becoming "The Guppy Whisperer" to help other Veggies take care of their pets. She lives in a carrot-shaped house built into the side of the kitchen island. She goes to school with Junior, where she also befriends a bullied girl named Callie Flower. Laura also gained the superhero persona Night Pony after being mentored by the retired Granny Asparagus. In The VeggieTales Show, Laura returns to help the Veggie gang put on their shows, but appears less often than the others. She has notable roles in the episodes "The Power of Love" and "Naaman Takes A Bath" where she has a crush on a Veggie pop-star named Jimmy Lucky and trains as Bob's assistant stage manager, respectively.

Mr. Lunt is a yellow decorative gourd^[6] with a Hispanic accent who grew up in New Jersey. He is often the source of off-beat humor and doesn't shy away from being argumentative at times. His notable features include his brown pencil thin mustache and his lack of any eyes, which forces him to use the brim of his panama hat or eyebrow wrinkles for expression. He originally had a gold tooth, but it was removed in later episodes. Mr. Lunt first appears in "Rack, Shack & Benny" as Mr. Nezzer's assistant and sidekick. The pair were typically seen as the series' "bad guys" in early VeggieTales episodes, usually being redeemed by the episode's end. Mr. Lunt has also appeared as an individual antagonist, such as playing Haman in "Esther... the Girl Who Became Queen" and Otis the Elevated in "Duke and the Great Pie War". He also prominently appears as one of the Pirates Who Don't Do Anything and as the leader of the Veggie boy band, Boyz in the Sink. In addition to his Boyz songs, Mr. Lunt has starred in two of his own Silly Songs, "His Cheeseburger" and "Donuts for Benny". He also got a superhero alter-ego in the "LarryBoy" episodes as a quick caped-crusader named S-Cape, whom is a member of the League of Incredible Vegetables.

In VeggieTales in the House and VeggieTales in the City, Mr. Lunt appears less often in quick cameo appearances. He was shown to have various jobs, such as a delivery guy and as the owner of his own repair shop. Mr. Lunt's most notable appearance was in the episode "The Missing Jetpack" where he learns a lesson about telling the truth after lying to Junior about losing his jetpack. Mr. Lunt returned with a more prominent role in The VeggieTales Show, often contributing wild ideas and skits that usually end in disaster. Some of his contributions include taking on the role of Wink Gourdindale to host a game show called "Wheel of Bravery", selling a product called "Relationship Glue", and diving into a vat of eggnog. Mr. Lunt also reprises his role as S-Cape in the "LarryBoy" episodes.

Madame Blueberry is a French blueberry with a French accent. She first appeared as the titular character in "Madame Blueberry", where her name and the theme of the episode are both allusions to the tale of Madame Bovary. As such, Madame Blueberry was cast early on as a vain character who struggles to be thankful. She usually wears fancy clothes and accessories, such as brown or yellow wigs, pearls, and heavy makeup. Although a blueberry, she is similar in size to Bob the Tomato and much larger than the similarly sized in-real-life French Peas. Madame Blueberry also has a reoccurring role as the Mayor of Bumblyburg in the "LarryBoy" episodes.

For VeggieTales in the House and VeggieTales in the City, Madame Blueberry appeared as a much more stuffy character, so much so that her voice changed to having a RP accent. Although still hailing from France, she was portrayed liking very stereotypical British things, such as cups of tea and minding her manners. She is even seen living in a blue teapot shaped house built into the side of the kitchen island. On some occasions, she donned the persona "Madame Clue-berry" to solve mysteries, all the while being rather clueless. She also garnered the nickname "Madame Blue" from her friends. When Madame returned for The VeggieTales Show, she started acting more like she did in the original series and had her French accent once again. She also leans more heavily into her role as a singer, now calling herself a "French opera singer". She also reprises her role as the Mayor for a few "LarryBoy" episodes.

Pa Grape is a wise, elderly green grape. He has a bushy white mustache and eyebrows, wears a black top hat, glasses, and speaks with a slight Yiddish accent. Pa is often seen as a trusted authority figure amongst the VeggieTales cast, though he sometimes comes off as senile when he shares some of his slightly odder anecdotes. According to an interview in the "What's the Big Idea?" magazine, Pa stated he was held back in the 2nd grade for 13 years and was worried about his lack of any physical eyes.^[8] Pa made his first appearance in "God Wants Me to Forgive Them!?!" as the father of the Grapes of Wrath. He is typically cast as a sage or fatherly figure, including such roles as Mordecai in "Esther... The Girl Who Became Queen", and the angel sent to guide Gideon (Larry the Cucumber) in "Gideon: Tuba Warrior". He also has a reoccurring role as the captain of the Pirates Who Don't Do Anything, appearing alongside Larry and Mr. Lunt and starring as the lead of the film. Pa likes to invent and tinker as well, a part of his personality that is influenced by his role as the eccentric Victorian inventor Seymour Schwenk in the holiday specials "The Star of Christmas" and "An Easter Carol".

When Pa appeared in VeggieTales in the House and VeggieTales in the City, he appeared with eyes for the very first time, as well as gaining a tinier hat and a bushier mustache that completely covered his mouth. He is seen owning a general store in the house, built into the side of the kitchen island. His store is used as the setting for many of the episodes. He almost always tries teaching a lesson or giving biblical advice to the other Veggies, but is initially ignored on occasion. For The VeggieTales Show, Pa appears frequently as a narrator for the show's Bible story segments and often helps decide what Bible stories are best to use for the topic of the day's show.

• Jimmy Gourd: Voiced by Phil Vischer (1995–2022) and Joe Zieja (2022–present)
• Jerry Gourd: Voiced by Mike Nawrocki (1995–2022) and Joe Zieja (2022–present)

Jimmy and Jerry Gourd are gourd brothers who appear as a secondary comic duo. Despite being very similar and hard to tell apart, the two have some traits to help them stand out from each other. For example, Jimmy is orange and very talkative with a boisterous personality. Jerry is yellow and more soft-spoken and monotone. The pair debuted together in "Are You My Neighbor?" portraying the "new guys" and establishing their love of eating and singing show tunes. Although inseparable, Jimmy often appears in starring roles without his brother, such as the "Omelet" and "Dr. Jiggle and Mr. Sly" story segments and as a member of Boyz in the Sink. Jerry's notable appearances without Jimmy include playing the Swede in "The Englishman Who Went Up a Hill and Came Down with All the Bananas" and alongside Mr. Lunt in "His Cheeseburger" (furthering his and his brother's reputation of loving to eat). A notable appearance of the duo is the opening of "King George and the Ducky", where they wear cardboard cutout costumes of Bob and Larry in an attempt to impersonate them and take over the show.

In VeggieTales in the House and VeggieTales in the City, Jimmy and Jerry were shown as Bob and Larry's neighbors, living in the pantry on the other end of the kitchen countertop. The Gourd brothers also own pets in the series – a dust bunny named Danny and a guppy named Happy Sunshine Bubbles. They returned for The VeggieTales Show as well, appearing both backstage and onstage to help put on the shows in the theater.

Archibald Asparagus serves as the stereotypical role of a stuffy, classically educated British "gentleman" in contrast with the rest of his zany co-stars. He typically wears a red bowtie, has a monocle on his right eye, and speaks with an Oxford English accent. Archibald first appeared in the 1992 short "VeggieTales Promo: Take 38" to interrupt and object to the creation of such a show as VeggieTales, claiming it to be utter nonsense. Archibald made his official debut in "Where's God When I'm S-Scared?", playing the regal King Darius role in the story segment of "Daniel and the Lion's Den". This episode also started the continuing theme of his distaste for Larry's Silly Song segments. He often claimed they were "too silly", a sentiment greatly emphasized when he interrupts "The Water Buffalo Song" to chastise Larry. Eventually, he learns to loosen up in "The End of Silliness?" after an incident where he cancelled "Silly Songs with Larry" and learned how much the segment meant to Larry and VeggieTales fans. Archibald later appears in other Silly Songs specifically starring him, including "The Biscuit of Zazzamarandabo" and "Astonishing Wigs". Archibald also has a recurring role as LarryBoy's faithful butler Alfred (who is just called "Archibald" in the 2D cartoon spin-off series) and was featured as the title character in Jonah: A VeggieTales Movie. Archibald has also been a narrator for "The Good Egg of Gooseville" and "Lyle the Kindly Viking", where in the latter he got to host the show in the style of Masterpiece Theatre.

For VeggieTales in the House and VeggieTales in the City, Archibald was portrayed as the mayor of the town inside the house. Because of his social status, he was regarded as a bureaucrat and a more authoritative character as a result. He was mostly seen doing mayoral duties such as public speeches. However, his new job didn't keep him from engaging in more fun social activities with the other Veggies, such as camping trips and birthday parties. For The VeggieTales Show, Archibald resumes his regular role from the original series. He appears frequently onstage as a performer, often narrating the Bible story segments. He also reappears as Alfred in the "LarryBoy" episodes.

Mr. Nezzer is a rich, middle-aged zucchini businessman. Always seen in a formal shirt and a necktie, he is appropriately business-minded, but sometimes is a tad egotistical. Although always included in the VeggieTales gang, he is somewhat aloof compared to the others because of his social status as the owner of many successful companies and businesses. Often cast in antagonistic roles, Mr. Nezzer himself truly isn't a villain. Often he or the characters he plays are just misguided in their actions and are redeemed by an episode's end. A great example is his debut in "Rack, Shack & Benny" as the whimsical yet menacing chocolate factory owner Nebby K. Nezzer. It's also in this episode that Nezzer performs the fan-favorite and controversial^[12] song "The Bunny Song". Other notable roles include playing toy factory owner Wally P. Nezzer in "The Toy That Saved Christmas", King Xerxes in "Esther... The Girl Who Became Queen", Olaf in "Lyle the Kindly Viking", and Victorian theater and Easter egg factory owner Ebenezer Nezzer in "The Star of Christmas" and "An Easter Carol".

Mr. Nezzer was absent in VeggieTales in the House and VeggieTales in the City due to DreamWorks (who produced the series) perceiving the character's voice as perpetuating an African-American stereotype being voiced by Phil Vischer (who is a White man and based Nezzer's voice on Ken Page's performance as Oogie Boogie in The Nightmare Before Christmas). In turn, Nezzer was replaced with a similar-looking but different sounding character named Ichabeezer. Mr. Nezzer eventually returned for The VeggieTales Show as the owner of the theater the Veggies use for their new series.^[3] He mostly makes short appearances in each episode to announce the curtain call for the beginning of each show, much to Bob's dismay for wanting more time to prepare. However, Nezzer did appear onstage at least once in a character role, portraying King Saul in the episode "Little Things Matter".

• Jean-Claude Pea: Voiced by Mike Nawrocki (1996–2022) and Joe Zieja (2022–present)
• Phillipe Pea: Voiced by Phil Vischer (1997–2022) and Joe Zieja (2022–present)
• Cristoffe Pea: Voiced by Chris Olsen (1996)

The French Peas are a vast group of hardworking yet cheeky green peas with French accents. Usually only represented by Jean-Claude and Phillipe, they are sometimes joined by other French Peas, including one named Cristoffe, who appears infrequently. The Peas are often a source of comedy for the series and function as ancillary crew members behind the scenes. Among many other peas, Jean-Claude and Cristoffe debuted portraying the Philistines in "Dave and the Giant Pickle" as an allusion to the French soldiers in Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Phillipe later appeared alongside Jean-Claude in "Josh and the Big Wall!" as the slushy throwing guards of Jericho, furthering the allusion to the Monty Python characters and directly parodying the behavior of tormenting passersby with strange, nonsensical threats. The Peas continue appearing in subsequent episodes, often playing mischievous or supporting characters. The French Peas have also taken over the show in a few instances, including when Jean-Claude narrated in the episode "Madame Blueberry" and when they assisted Archibald in "Lyle the Kindly Viking" to somewhat disastrous results. They also have their own Silly Song, "Hopperena" in the episode "'Twas the Night Before Easter". They only speak French.

When appearing in VeggieTales in the House and VeggieTales in the City, Jean-Claude and Phillipe appeared very infrequently as tertiary characters. The only starring role was Jean-Claude appearing solo in the episode "Pa Grape's Son" going to a father-son day festival with Pa Grape as his "father-for-the-day" while his real dad is in France. Both Jean-Claude and Phillipe returned for The VeggieTales Show, assisting backstage as stagehands and prop makers in addition to appearing onstage in the shows.

Qwerty is the desktop computer seen on the kitchen countertop, with which Bob and Larry use to read the Bible verse at the end of each show. Qwerty's name is derived from the first six letters that appear on a standard English keyboard. Though Qwerty is not alive per se, he does have certain anthropomorphic characteristics, including some emoting and voice activation. Qwerty is not always perfect at retrieving the verse, usually sputtering and taking a moment to load it. In the first episode, "Where's God When I'm S-Scared?", Qwerty accidentally posts a meatloaf recipe instead of a Bible verse.

According to Phil Vischer, the original design for Qwerty was based on an Intel 80386 model computer. Qwerty was slightly updated in "Abe and the Amazing Promise", giving two verses instead of one, and got a more life-changing update in the episode "Pistachio - The Little Boy That Woodn't" where he got a voice chip installed. The design of the new update, including a sleeker look and a black screen instead of the original blue, is reminiscent of an Apple iMac. While Qwerty did not appear in VeggieTales in the House or VeggieTales in the City, he was mentioned in the episode "The Lost Dust Bunny" in the latter series. Qwerty did not appear in The VeggieTales Show because Phil Vischer felt that he did not fit in with the theater setting.^[13] However, Qwerty is credited for appearing in some of the "LarryBoy" episodes as LarryBoy's computer.

• Dad Asparagus: Voiced by Dan Anderson (1993–2011), Mike Nawrocki (2002), J. Chris Wall (2012), Rob Paulsen (2014–2017)

Mom and Dad Asparagus are Junior's caring and supportive parents. They appear in the series to give Junior advice or teach him how to behave properly. They first appeared in "Where's God When I'm S-Scared?" in traditional parental roles as their son deals with facing his fears. Both parents appear more prominently in the early videos, with Dad appearing more often as the series goes on. They are almost always together or alongside Junior. Unlike most other VeggieTales characters, Mom and Dad usually appear as themselves and not in character roles. Probably their biggest roles to date are as Reverend Gilbert and his wife, Mrs. Gilbert, in the holiday specials "The Star of Christmas" and "An Easter Carol". They also can both be seen in the original opening theme song for the series alongside their son with Bob and Larry. Originally, both parents were simply named "Dad" and "Mom" respectively, but they were given the more proper names "Mike and Lisa" (after VeggieTales co-creator Mike Nawrocki and his wife, Lisa) for the VeggieTales in the House series. Mike is also referred to as "Captain Mike" and portrayed having a job as an astronaut.

The Scallions are a trio of devious scallions who are among the most consistent antagonists in VeggieTales, having appeared as bandits, swindlers, salesmen, and many other rapscallion types. Their debut was as the Wisemen opposite Larry's "Daniel" in the "Daniel and the Lions' Den" segment from "Where's God When I'm S-Scared?". They all have no names, simply referred to as Scallion #1, #2 and #3. Scallion #1 is the tallest and leader of the group, with a long purple nose, and is often seen with his stalks slicked back to mimic a ducktail hairstyle. Scallion #2 is the second tallest with a small greenish yellow nose, while Scallion #3 is the shortest of the trio and has a big blue nose. They also participate with Frankencelery to form a group of quartet singers for the Silly Song "The Yodeling Veterinarian of the Alps" as well as the songs "Listen" and "A Helping Hand". Occasionally, one of the Scallions will make a solo appearance. For example, Scallion #1 appeared as a salesman selling the Forgive-O-Matic device in "God Wants Me to Forgive Them!?!" and as the Englishman and Cedric in "King George and the Ducky". Scallion #3 also appeared as the Milk Money Bandit in "LarryBoy and the Rumor Weed".

Scooter is a feisty and rather eccentric Scottish carrot. He has a Scottish accent and a bushy white mustache and eyebrows. He first appeared as the ship engineer of the U.S.S. Applepies (in a parody of Scotty from the original Star Trek television series) in "The Gourds Must Be Crazy" segment from "Are You My Neighbor?". Scooter has also gone on to have many substantial supporting roles in the videos, such as the slightly savage Moyer in "The Star of Christmas" and its sequel, "An Easter Carol", as well as a recurring role as a police officer in the "LarryBoy" episodes. Another significant starring role is as the eccentric Mr. Butterbun in "Dr. Jiggle and Mr. Sly" from "A Snoodle's Tale". Scooter is also very proud of his Scottish heritage, as seen in the Silly Song "Kilts and Stilts".

George is an old green onion with a handlebar mustache who often narrates some of the episodes. He first appeared in "Rack, Shack, and Benny" to act as the chocolate factory's security guard and narrated the story. George later narrates in "The Toy That Saved Christmas", where he is portrayed as a postman and revealed to be the grandfather of Annie. After a 12-year break, George reappeared to narrate again in "Tomato Sawyer and Huckleberry Larry's Big River Rescue" as the storyteller Clark Wayne (a parody of Mark Twain). George made a few small appearances throughout the rest of the original series, often playing elderly or wise characters.

Annie is a little green onion girl who is friends with Junior and Laura. She is tender-hearted, has short brown hair styled in a flip and is a strong dapper wearing glasses, a hair bow (a black beret in "Madame Blueberry") and either a variety of dresses, or both a blouse and skirt. She first appeared in "The Toy That Saved Christmas" being told a bedtime story by her grandpa, George. Annie later appeared in "Madame Blueberry", playing a poor French girl who shows Madame Blueberry how to be thankful. Annie's parents appeared with her as well, in silent cameo roles. Her father and mother were respectively modeled after Phil and Lisa Vischer as an inside joke by concept artist Joseph Sapulich. Annie has made subsequent appearances, often seen alongside Junior and the other Veggie kids, such as the "Bully Trouble" segment from "Minnesota Cuke and the Search for Samson's Hairbrush" and the Jonah film.
