Just watched this. I'm 18 so never watched Barney, but the show show looked worse than cocomelon
It was kino as a kid in the 90s
>worse than cocomelon
cocomelon is produced by pajeets to make 5 second clips and induce autism
Even as a kid I thought Barney was some gay shit. My cousin had this game where you killed Barney. It was like Limmings/Lamers where Barney would move across the screen and you have to wreck his shit with a bunch of different methods. I remember one was lightning.
But why hate him? It's just a children show.
You wouldn't get it. It's kind of the feeling of when you become an older kid and want to distance yourself from the baby stuff you liked before.
So it was 90s kids being edgy, got it.
That was a bunch of other anons. I never said I hated it. I just thought it was gay.
Haven’t seen the doc but ya, that was pretty much it. My little sister watched Barney and I didn’t see what the big deal was, it wasn’t that bad. Now Teletubbies was truly moronic.
90s? We were singing that song gave me HIV when I was like 8 in the late 2000s
Literally never mentioned the word hate.
Parents disliked him because he was obnoxious. Very small kids liked him, but once you got older and went to school with other kids, you hated him to be edgy. We had a dozen different songs and games about killing Barney at my school. The most popular one was remixing the "I love you" song:
>I hate you
>you hate me
>let's hang Barney from a tree
>with a punch in the gut and a shotgun to the head
>we'll make sure that fricker's dead
For me it was
It hate you
>You hate me
>Barney gave me HIV
>So I kicked him in the balls and shot him in the head
>Now that purple bastards dead
gave me HIV
Oh wow
It's
>let's get together and kill Barney
>with a rifle 64', now Barney's on the floor
>no more purple dinosaur
>now Barney's on the floor
>>no more purple dinosaur
I remember that part in whatever rhyme was at my school
>barney is a dinosaur with no imagination
>if you stab him up the bum hell die of constipation
For me, it was the Christmas song
>Joy to the world Barney's dead
>They barbecued his head
>What happened to the body? We flushed it down the potty!
>And round and round it went, and round and round it went...
that's not a barney song, it's like 75 years old
thats the one
In my school it was
Remember when you were dumb
You worshipped Barney like a chud
Die, you fricking Barneygay
Now there’s just moronation in your eyes
Like the downie that won’t die
Die, you fricking Barneygay
You were fricked in the crossfire of Leach and Parker
Clutched in their tight grasp
Frick off, you homosexual with moronic laughter
Frick off you manchild, you moron, you downie and die
I hope you die in a dune
I hope you die soon
Die, you fricking Barneygay
Taught by those who aren’t right
His purpleness filled your sight
Die, you fricking Barneygay
You found your own way to ignore smart decisions
Clutched in his tight grasp
Frick off, you dumbass, you failed emission
Frick off, you sperg, you butthole, you degenerate and die
LMFAO
How did every kid across the nation sing these same songs before the internet?
Every kid watched Barney.
word of mouth. kids sometimes travel and speak to kids from other states.
What's really gonna bake your noodle is we all played "smear the queer" in the school playground, too.
>play “smear the queer”
>i was always the queer
>had no idea what queer meant, just enjoyed it because I was faster than the guys who would chase after me so i’d never lose
Boy, I sure was a dumbfrick.
It's a fricking mystery, dude.
They somehow communicated without keyboards.
Weird shit.
I never even heard of that shit until I was older. Never played that.
>nation
we did it in australia too, although this was in the 2000s
That’s why it’s so fascinating. It was just a show for little kids but everyone hated on it. I remember playing the Barney codes for Doom that turned all the demons into Barney. Gotta admit having an invisible Barney come at you to kill you is pretty terrifying.
He was the first character that was dumbed down to completely idiotic levels for kids. other shows were simple and quiet but Barney was plain stupid
that's not true, tons of shows did that before Barney
I remember watching Sesame Street and Sharon, Lois and Brahm. I was a teenager when Barney came out.
I was going to bring up Sesame Street as an example of being the exact opposite of what Barney was
they didn't start pulling that Elmo's World BS until Barney established the style
>uh actually Sesame Street was very mature, you knoe they killed the old man!
Never watched this
Never watched Barney
But title reminded me of this
Anyone remember the episode or straight-to-video of the medieval stuff where they danced around the pole with ribbons? Kino.
Barney is a God. How dare you.
Barney is the antichrist
Not a bad documentary overall. The whole schmaltzy speech from Steve from Blue's Clues at the end got me. The Barney hate thing is pretty bizarre in retrospect, especially the adults that made in their whole identity. But I definitely went through the cycle of liking Barney as a little kid and making fun of it the second I grew out of the show.
It was way too cheesy for me.
>1996
>be 8 years old
>at the boys & girls club after school
>tell my buddy that a girl who looks at least 3 years older on the otherside of the room looks really cute
>friend says "I dare you to tell her"
>I whip out my notebook and write the lyrics to the barney song "I love you, you love me..." and give it to her
>she reads it, walks back to me, crumples the paper and shoves it in my mouth
hot
Where the frick is Lee?
He deserves to be interviewed in a movie like this. No one in the world comes close to hating Barney as much as he does
he only responds to ponyshit now
Where is barneybot?
it was something to turn your brain off for as a toddler, like these days how marvel movies are for all ages
>Please wait a while before making a post

I liked Barney when I was really young, then became a big kid and wanted to distance myself from that pussy shit and became a Juggalo
horrible documentary
> Barney was hated because the 90s were all about being edgy and anti-authority, so Barney was an easy target.
no shit, that's hardly a genius observation but the most obvious shit ever.
> Barney hate was basically toxic masculinity and homophobia
no, Barney was just annoying
> The creator's son became a degenerate trigger-happy redneck because people were mean to his mom and he internalized that hatred and aggression
No, he was just a moron from the beginning
It's basically a glorified Youtube video essay
Yeah it's just projection and headcanon
The ending somehow connected the Barney hate with Trump.
purple dinosaur bad
I definitely agree with the toxic masculinity and homophobia point. We were definitely against the love and vulnerability of Barnie once we were getting socialized (not babies anymore) in the 90s and 00s.
The 90s were full of edgelords, yeah. But nothing in Barney and no one in the intended audience of Barney had any concept of sexuality. No one hated him because he was "gay"; he was just a big dumb slow-talking huggie-wuggie moron and was hated because he was "for babies."
No we thought he was gay
Barnie itself wasn’t sexual, but the backlash against it was rooted in the same impulse that says that kindness and love are bad traits to have bc it’s infantile, like trying to deny the vulnerable baby we once were.
Nah. Youre a homosexual though
>proves his point
moron
>It's basically a glorified Youtube video essay
lol this, but at least it has interviews
Reminder this actually fricking happened
Fricking kek holy shit
How did Lee react to this
Some say the real Lee finally quit after that video and it's only been impersonators ever since.
You'll like this then
You're 18 huh? Wanna get your bussy split you sweet Georgia peach? Heterosexually of course.
>be Sheryl
>create a children's show
>get your husband kill himself and your son becomes schizo
Why do autists hate Barney so much anyway? I get that it's dumber and has less characterization than the Sesame Street muppets, but it's aimed at literal 3 year olds and isn't really any dumber than any other shit aimed at 3 year olds.
>ex-nazi girl is a spic
edward norton already did it twenty years ago in death to smoochy
everything is a sequel of a reboot of a remake. all the original ideas are gone
?
Death to Smoochy was documentary?
put the gun in your mouth and pull the trigger, fricking moron
The hate Gen Xers had for Barney was really weird. Like yeah, we made fun of Barney after we got older, but Gen Xers swore Barney was causing the downfall of humanity and lasting effects on my generation and making them soft, Which, in all fairness, did happen but not because of frickin' Barney.
>remember THING from childhood? well actually it was le bad and evil
Tiresome
JOY TO THE WORLD
THAT BARNEY'S DEAD
WE BARBECUED HIS HEAD
According to my mom, I fricking loved Barney. Where did I go wrong?
I wasn't born at the right time to watch Barney as its intended audience, but I'm old enough to remember singing songs about killing him on the school bus.
