The TV series and videos are currently distributed by 9 Story Media Group, HIT Entertainment and Universal Studios, while the TV series was produced by WNET from 2006 to 2010. įor several years, the show was taped at the Color Dynamics Studios facility at Greenville Avenue & Bethany Drive in Allen, Texas, after which it moved to The Studios at Las Colinas in Irving, Texas, and then Carrollton, a suburb of Dallas. Faced with an atmosphere that Rifkin later described as "like an insurrection", PBS ultimately relented. By the time of the yearly member stations' meeting, station executives across the country were up in arms over the prospect of one of their most popular shows being canceled. The Lyons Group, meanwhile, sent out notices through the Barney Fan Club, telling parents to write letters and make phone calls to their local PBS stations to show their support for Barney & Friends. When CPTV executives learned this, they wrote letters to their fellow PBS member stations urging them to get PBS to reconsider.
Īlthough the show was a runaway hit, PBS initially opted not to provide funding beyond the initial 30-episode run. The series was produced by CPTV and Lyrick Studios (later bought by HIT Entertainment). The show debuted as Barney & Friends in 1992. Franklin and Rifkin convinced Leach to let CPTV revamp the concept for television. Franklin and Rifkin pitched the idea to all of their colleagues with preschoolers, and they all agreed that kids would love a Barney show. He pitched it to CPTV president Jerry Franklin, whose preschool son also fell in love with it. Rifkin thought Barney had appeal because he was not as neurotic as Big Bird. Rifkin thought the concept could be developed for PBS. One day in 1991, the daughter of Connecticut Public Television executive Larry Rifkin rented one of the videos and was "mesmerized" by it. The first three videos starred actress Sandy Duncan. Leach then brought together a team who created a series of home videos, Barney and the Backyard Gang, initially released in 1988.
She came up with the idea of a children's program after noticing that her son outgrew Wee Sing Together, and then recognizing that there were no videos to appeal to her son. īarney was created by Sheryl Leach of Dallas, Texas.
