VeggieTales (Arabic dub)

حواديت الخضروات (roman: hawadit alakhdaruat) (English: The Vegetable Show) is the Egyptian-Arabic dub of the American Christian children's direct-to-video series VeggieTales. While the original VeggieTales is good, these dubs aren't.

Three dubs are known to exist as of 2020.

History
The show was dubbed in Egyptian/Arabic three times. The first two dubs (in Colloquial Egyptian) were produced in Cairo, Egypt by Arascope Film company: one in 1997 (as evidenced by the copyright date on the VHS and DVD covers) for the first few episodes up to Josh and the Big Wall!, and another in 2006 from Madame Blueberry to The Ballad of Little Joe. A third dub was produced by SAT-7 Kids sometime in 2010 for newer episodes.

The show is formerly aired on MBC 3 from 2004-2007 and currently being streamed live on SAT-7 Kids' website (aired on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays) and on the Miracle Channel (aired on weekends during Fridays and Sundays).

Why This Dub Sucks
It tries way too hard to be hip and cool, but it fails miserably. For example, Wubbzy's catchphrases in this dub are "HEY!" and "YEAH!", and said character's habit of playing the Kickety-Kick Ball game is taken way too far.

 * 1) The dubbing is very mediocre, and it copies most of the creative concepts that the original English dub has, and turns them into something very bad and awful.
 * 2) Horrible voice acting that sounds a lot like Butt-Ugly Martians and Bratz look like they're abhorrent robots.
 * 3) Silly names. For example, Bob's name in this dub is Bobo, Larry's name in this dub is Tikha, Junior's name in this dub is Qarnabeet (Cauliflower), and Jimmy and Jerry's names in that dub are El-Alsāwi and Āwa.
 * 4) Most of the characters sound absolutely nothing but very inappropriate like their American counterparts.
 * 5) * Bob (Yasser Shāban), instead of having a high-pitch voice, he has a voice similar to Prince Phillip from Sleeping Beauty (1959) and Hercules from Hercules (1997) with an Egyptian-Arabic accent.
 * 6) * Larry (Rāfat Maher), instead of a silly high-pitch voice, he has a voice similar to Fou Fou from Wuz Wuz & Bott Bott also with an Egyptian-Arabic accent.
 * 7) * Junior (Nevin Shouki), instead of a childish voice, he has an anime fearful, miserable teenage tomboy girl accent that is very similar to Yoshimi from Body Transfer.
 * 8) * Jimmy (Rami Samir) might sound similar to Azouz from Wuz Wuz & Bott Bott, but this has yet to be confirmed.
 * 9) * Jerry (Farid El-Naqurashi) might sound similar to Kenichi from Body Transfer, but this has yet also to be confirmed.
 * 10) * All the other characters had voices that are similar to the immature Butt Monkey characters with the Egyptian-Arabic accents and they might sound similar to the Disney and Pixar movie characters.
 * 11) In Josh and the Big Wall!, Bob's line "Back at their camp at night, they talked it over" was cut.
 * 12) In Madame Blueberry, Jerry Louis's name is changed into Mickey Mouse in the Arabic dub.
 * 13) The title cards for Silly Songs with Larry and sing-along lyrics were left completely textless before Madame Blueberry. When they did localize them, though, it is worth nothing that not only do the characters do not appear on them, but the portion with text looks like a cheap makeover.
 * 14) * Archibald does appear on the Classy Songs with Larry title card, although he fades in during the announcement he makes. On the other hand, the Silly Songs with Larry title card that precedes it has him completely removed.
 * 15) It tries way too hard to be happy and silly, but it fails miserably. For example, the character's habit of the "What We Have Learned" song from God's word is taken way too far.
 * 1) In the older theme song from the 1990s, after the logo, a long white screen is shown before the theme song starts, which is very creepy to some.
 * 2) In the newer theme song from the 2000s, throughout the logo which is colored, a white screen is shown before the theme song starts, which is a little creepy to some.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) The stories and jokes are still funny.
 * 2) The Arabic singing voices are very decent.
 * 3) The animation still looks good.
 * 4) At least this dub was legally done unlike the Persian Dubs.
 * 5) The text that appears at the start of "Belly Button" is at least localized properly.

Trivia

 * The reason that Are You My Neighbor? was never dubbed in Arabic is because its lesson is allegedly related to the fear that one of Egypt's neighboring countries is politically regarded as an enemy﻿.
