One follower pointed out that this doc is about adult hate and no trauma should come from watching it soooo, hopfully, good memories will stay intact.

“So this is really not about drama behind the show but more about how adults hate things like this. The moment Barney got popular, adults came with all these conspiracy theories to ruin a show that was intended for children.”

Finally, another follower echoed the same sentiment, they just wanted the sunny parts of their childhood to stay shining.

“We do not care. Baby Bop ad Barney never presented anything dark. They was our homies! If it was behind the scenes they were adults.”

And that’s that! Are you watching the new Barney docuseries when it premieres on Oct.12?
