This is the longest VeggieTales video release to date (excluding the feature film, naturally)
This was the second episode written by Phil Vischer after Big Idea's bankruptcy
The Silly Song "My Baby Elf" was shown at VeggieTales Rockin' Tour Live before the show, along with "Pizza Angel"
"Lord of the Beans" premiered at the International Christian Retail Show in Denver
Although usually after finishing the video on the DVD you are treated with an Easter Egg or a coupon code, Lord of the Beans only offered a hearty congratulations
Several backgrounds from other shows are used in this one. For instance, The Mountains of Much-Snowia are actually mountains from Minnesota Cuke and the Search for Samson's Hairbrush.
