The fourteenth and final season of Barney & Friends premiered on the PBS children's block, PBS Kids from October 4 to November 2, 2010 and consisted of twenty episodes (forty segments). This is the only season of Barney & Friends to not to have new episodes, but rather combining two episodes from seasons ten and eleven.

Intended to be a refresh of Barney & Friends, this season introduces a new version of the "Barney Theme Song" and ushers in a new interstitial where kids tell jokes and sing Barney songs.

Production[]

Filming[]

Filming for some parts of the newly revised "Barney Theme Song" and the music video interstitials took place at Celebration Park in Allen, Texas while other parts of the "Barney Theme Song" and joke segments were filmed at HIT Entertainment Studios in Carrollton, Texas. The music videos were also filmed at HIT Entertainment Studios, such as the music video for "Laugh With Me!" being filmed on Stage C.[1] Filming for the new content of this season took place from December 14, 2009 to January 29, 2010.

Packaging[]

Although Connecticut Public Television formerly produced the episodes that were a part of seasons ten and eleven, their name alongside The Lyons Group were removed from the end credits due to the fact of how the show was being produced solely by HIT Entertainment at the time. Since this season contained a repackaging of episodes that were previously from seasons ten and eleven, all the episodes from those seasons were originally produced using the 4:3 aspect ratio format. During the time in which this season was produced, they were simply altered using the 16:9 widescreen format as a rainbow colored border is shown around the episode segments and unlike the previous seasons, this one features its titles during the start of each episode presented onscreen. Despite this season containing a repackaging of episodes that were previously from seasons ten and eleven, it is listed as a separate season apart from the franchise as a whole and unlike the previous seasons, it was produced in just one month.

This was the only Barney & Friends season to include a limited amount of episodes that were previously a part of the tenth and eleventh season and not the entire segments from those two seasons.

Cast[]

New Material[]

Dinosaurs[]

Children[]

The children utilized for the new content this season remain uncredited. As a result, only the children who appeared during the episode segments were simply credited instead despite them having already left the show at the time this season was being filmed.

Despite being uncredited, the only known cast of child actors who appeared during the new material of this season are Logan Robot Gladden, Brenden Stanton, Jaden Roberts, Alyssa Boualapha, Ethan Van Zandt, Delaney Walker and Elizabeth Cole (the sister of Deborah Cole, who portrayed "Emma").

Release[]

Alternatives[]

The episodes "Winter", "Welcome, Cousin Riff", "Things I Can Do", and "Airplanes" all have alternate endings that have the song "I Love You" sung instead of their past endings for this season.

Streaming[]

When this season was included on streaming services as well as being featured on the official Barney YouTube channel, the link showcasing the PBS Kids website was removed during the end credits, given the fact of how PBS' broadcasting rights for the series expired in 2016. In the fall of 2017, this season was released to streaming on Kikiriki, the children's streaming channel of 9 Story Media Group. In 2021, this season became available to stream on many different streaming services, including FilmRise Streaming Network, Netflix,[2][3] Tubi, and as of March 2022, The Roku Channel.

Barney Theme Song[]

  • The opening intro for this season shows the same walking animation from season seven through thirteen, but zoomed up slightly. After it forms (without the text), the rainbow transitions to the swirl, then it warps and shows a park.
  • The "Barney Theme Song" for this season was first seen on the home video "A-Counting We Will Go" before airing on television. It would later be used for some subsequent home videos released during the 2010s decade after the show's original ending.
  • The only season where the "Barney Theme Song" is shortened (not counting the international airings of seasons four through six which omitted the second and third verses).
  • Unlike the other dinos, Riff is only present in a brief scene for the theme song as he doesn't appear in any other new material for this season.

Occurrences[]

  • This season marked:
    • The only season to have the PBS Kids Website shown during the end credits as previous seasons showcased a link to the website after the closing segments.
    • The only season to have one "new" Barney song, that being "Boogie Woogie Piggy".
    • The only season to not include a closing segment unlike the previous seasons.
    • The only season to have the writers and directors credited for the new material alongside the other cast and crew members from the previous two seasons.
    • The final season where BJ is performed by Kyle Nelson for the new content only excluding the episode segments.

Props[]

Release[]

  • Some subsequent home videos that were released after the series' run (excluding the ones containing new material) use the exact same end credit sequence by extending the duration while having the end credit theme from this season play continuously (save for Barney's Worldwide Adventure!). However, the episode clips that are presented in small rainbow colored borders and the text saying Barney & Friends were removed.
  • The only episode from this season to be included on a home video release was "The Emperor's Contest" as it was featured on Story Time with Barney where the rainbow colored borders can be visibly seen in the background for the entire segment as the video itself was presented in its 4:3 full screen format.

Broadcast[]

  • International airings omit the joke segments but retain the music videos that were apart of the new content for this season. Also, the audio from the end credits from seasons seven through thirteen is used rather than using the one that was made exclusively for this season.
  • This was the only season of Barney & Friends to not be aired on Sprout unlike the previous seasons which have been broadcasted during the course of the show's run on the network from 2005-2015. Likewise, this season never aired on its successor Universal Kids either, thus making it the only season to air on PBS to not be on any other television network.
  • As this was the only season to air on PBS Kids to not be featured on any other television network in the US, it was the only way to watch an episode that was presented in its 4:3 full screen format as opposed to its 16:9 widescreen format.
