A Very Merry Christmas!

Title card for A Very Merry Christmas.

A Very Merry Christmas is a 2011 direct-to-video Barney Home Video clip show that was released on October 11, 2011. Featuring newly written scenes directed by Steven Feldman and written by Charlotte Spivey, this video features scenes from the tenth and eleventh seasons of Barney & Friends alongside footage from the previous two Barney & Friends Christmas videos Barney's Night Before Christmas and Barney's Christmas Star. This was the fifth Christmas special in the Barney franchise respectively following Waiting for Santa, Barney's Night Before Christmas, Barney's Christmas Star, and "Gift of the Dinos" / "A Visit to Santa".

Plot[]

Barney and the kids are decorating the caboose for Christmas. Barney explains the concept of "Snowflake Buddies", in which one chooses a paper snowflake, and gives the person who's name is written on the snowflake a gift. Baby Bop then arrives with a long Christmas wish-list, so Barney and his friends explain to her that Christmas is also about giving. Later, the group decides to write Christmas cards to their friends, as well as Santa Claus. Later, they act out a Christmas story of "The Nutcracker".

Stories: The Night Before Christmas (from Barney's Christmas Star) and The Nutcracker.

Filming[]

Filming for A Very Merry Christmas occurred in mid-October 2010 at HIT Entertainment Studios in Carrollton, Texas. A Very Merry Christmas was one of three videos filmed during this month, with the others being I Can Do It! and I Love My Friends. Given that all three videos were clip shows, they shot fast.
