Barney & Friends is a continuation of the award-winning PBS series of the same name, created as a revival to the declining brand. The series also has a spin-off entitled Our Special Friend Barney.
Premise[]
Set[]
The series returns to a familiar suburban school set, complete with a playground. However, the playground contains various set pieces from Barney's entire career on PBS including a tire swing on one of the trees, a wooden playset, and an Idea Bench set beside the play area. The classroom, on the other hand, is more original, though it contains similar elements to those in previous seasons. A treehouse stands right by the school and greatly resembles that of seasons past.

Trivia[]
- This revival takes place after the original show and the feature films Barney's Legacy and The Quest For Friendship-A Super Dee Duper New Movie
- Dean Wendt was replaced with Korey Durham to voice Barney, to give the show a nostalgic feel. He voices Barney on the show while Bob West reprises his role as Barney in the spinoff. But in the season 15 finale 1 hour special (which was a crossover of barney and friends, and our special friend barney) Korey and Bob share the role of Barney in the crossover.
- The little dinos' actors return to reprise their roles.
