The most common version of ''God Is in the T.V.'' was packaged in a cardboard sleeve and has white text printed directly onto the cassette. A less common alternate packaging was produced in Australia, which held the cassette in a plastic VHS case. No text is printed on the cassette, however the name of the film appears on a sticker placed across the cassette's spine.
