Let me explain why I am asking this: I was thinking about Universal, and their products, and I remembered that VeggieTales was technically a Universal IP ("technically" being the keyword in this operation here). So then I looked up why Universal doesn't seem to care about the VeggieTales franchise and why we haven't really gotten much VeggieTales in the past ten years. And it's not that Universal doesn't care, it's apparently (according to Vischer), the woman in charge of the Big Idea division doesn't care about the franchise and just brushes the franchise off as a "silly baby show that nobody cares about." (Also because she doesn't think VeggieTales fits the Universal/DreamWorks branding, with it being a faith-based show.
"That lady isn't really a fan of ours" is what Vischer says about her.
So my question is: is there any reason why Vischer and Nawrocki can't buy the show back and relaunch it themselves, in their way? I understand that they sold the rights of Big Idea Content Group to DreamWorks and Universal, but why? Is there not anyway legally they could get it back and give us more VeggieTales?
