Adaptations

Hachaverim Shel Barney

• Barney walks up to the kids instead of hiding behind the tree for when he comes to life.
• All of the songs were a semitone lower except for the "Barney Theme Song". "Sally the Camel" was sung, but it was sung as "Gal The Camel". In that same version, "The Wheels on the Bus" wasn't sung, but it was used as an underscore for when Karen takes Gal the Camel for a ride. "My Aunt Came Back," "The Airplane Song" and "The Happy Wanderer" were shortened. "The Sailing Medley" was also shortened to just "A Sailor Went to Sea, Sea, Sea".
• Barney and the kids don't use the phrase "Shimbaree, Shimbarah" to make Gal the Camel magically appear.
• Barney and the kids don't go to the make-believe zoo in this version.
• After "I Love You" was sung, the audio recording of Dana saying goodbye to Barney from "Hands Up on Your Head" is used when the kids leave, as well as the background music from the same episode being used for the ending shot of the Barney doll.
• The Barney doll sits on the tree stump instead of on the tire swing at the end of the episode.
• The background music from "Down On Barney's Farm" is briefly used during the beginning of the "Barney Says" segment in this version.

Trivia

• A different Barney doll (the same one used at the beginning of "Hop To It!") is used during this episode and it's the second and final episode to feature it.
• After Michael says "Or what about an Airplane!" and when it shows the shot of the gang saying "Yeah!" The Alternative Barney Doll disappears from the tire swing, which could be the reason why Barney may have came to life offscreen, as Barney's Magic sound effect that plays when he comes to life is not heard (though it can be heard when he transforms into a bus driver), after Barney came to life off screen he hide into His Closet to put on his Airline Pilot hat before appearing on the other side of his closet, this makes this the second episode were Barney comes to life off screen, the first being Eat, Drink And Be Healthy!.
• This is the first episode in which Kathy wears long pants.
• This is the second episode in which Kathy is not seen with her teddy bear.
• Kathy would later wear the same shirt in "Caring Means Sharing" and "What's That Shadow?"
• Min not only made a cameo appearance in this episode, but she would later wear the same dress in "Caring Means Sharing" and "Hola, Mexico!".
