[edit] Plot
The Following is a transcript from a press release:
"VeggieTales' brand new show, Moe and the Big Exit, tells the story of Moses in the way only VeggieTales can with hilarious storytelling and fun for the whole family. Meet Moe (played by Larry the Cucumber), a good-natured cowboy living high on the hog out in Dodgeball city while his kinfolk work their fingers to the bone digging the Grand Canyon. Upset by how his family is treated, he stands up to the zucchini foreman and sends him up the river. Feeling poorly ‘bout his actions and fearing for his life, Moe packs a bag and heads for the hills. After years of living on the land, Moe gets his nerve up, returns to Dodgeball City and tells the zucchini mayor 'let my people go.' As you might reckon, the heartless mayor refuses to listen and a heap of trouble comes to town. Can Moe help his people get free from their bondage and flee Dodgeball once and fer’ all? VeggieTales® Moe and the Big Exit is a western adventure with a lesson on following directions."
Moe and the Big Exit also "Includes a hilarious silly song starring everyone’s favorite boy band - Boyz in the Sink!"

[edit] Trivia
- Its title was originally "The Lone Stranger" but was changed to its current title "Moe and the Big Exit". The reason for this change is because Big Idea Inc. did not think that kids would understand the title.
- Moe's son wears similar clothes to what Little Joe wore.
- Moe has a hard time with public speaking and imagining everyone in their underwear doesn't help.
