I'm not a lawyer, but I've always thought that verbal contracts ARE generally enforcable, like other contracts, regardless of the amounts involved. (And there may be exceptions as well -- for example verbal contracts involving real estate aren't enforcble.)

Regardless of whether a verbal contract is legally enforcable, I think it does create a moral obligation -- hopefully that's something the VeggieTales folks should understand and honor.

As an attorney certain types of verbal agreements are enforceable, others are not. For example, a contract for a conveyance of an interest in land is not enforceable if it is not in writing. Personally, I have real qualms about supposedly Christian organizations declaring bankruptcy to avoid their contractual obligations. Sort of sets a bad example.
