Ibrahimr7 · 2/17/2023

I hope Bob West, Duncan Brennan and Tim Dever all return to voice
Barney cuz Dean Wendt has lost the barney voice and plus his
version of Barney isnt gonna be the best for both old and new
audiences also I hope they keep the original Tone of Barney and
give him a deep voice rather than making him sound or act like a
joke but lets actually hope this series is actually decent and that
they can remake some of the episodes in the live action series for
nostalgia/provide life lessons for children and actually teach them
Barney something

Omg a live action "barney says" segment at the end of each

episode sounds cool

Barney Says is a segment at the end of most Untitled Barney

CGI-animated series episodes hosted by Barney himself.
