At least once or twice in each show, one of the gang will offer to "teach" a new song to rest of the gang members-whereupon the entire group springs into song with oodles of choreography thrown in to boot. He also laughs after virtually everything he says, no matter how mundane-and this seems to be his primary function: a walking "laugh track." All of the programs are overproduced to the point of confusion. Throughout the three programs, the grating Barney drops a few pearls of wisdom: the basic message being to beam out love undiscerningly-it doesn't matter whether your love signal strikes another human being or a rock. I'm sure you can figure out what the other two tapes are about from the titles. (This is a trademark of the series then kids seldom do for themselves-Barney is the ultimate fantasy provider.) Next, the kids take a hike (at about the same time, my kids also took a hike, looking for something better to do), stopping every so often to burst into "spontaneous" lip-synched songs about turtles, frogs, and ants, using traditional tunes with new lyrics. He wiggles his tail, and presto!, the kids have camping outfits, supplies, etc. In Barney's Campfire Sing-Along, the "backyard gang" (whose most notable attribute is that they are a meticulously, even mathematically, chosen cross-section of the ethnic population) join barney on a soundstage which is supposed to represent a natural environment but looks just like a soundstage. Correction: the format is imaginatively lazy. Not, that's not fair many excellent programs feature a simple format. The format for each of the Barney programs is simple. Barney, the "magic" dinosaur, by way of contrast is a thundering bore. Shari Lewis is a veritable sparkplug of imagination and infectious enthusiasm which easily carries over to young and old, alike.
