Trivia

• The prototype version of the Lyrick Studios logo can be seen on the VHS cover. Also this is the first Barney video to be released by Lyrick Studios but it was not shown on the tapes until 1997.
• This video marked:
  • The first time Jeff Gittle directed for Barney. He would return to directing 2 years later for the Barney & Friends episode What's in a Name?
  • The first Barney video to have Joseph Philips as a music director.
• The Barney segment was filmed at or around the same time as the filming for Once Upon a Time (judging from the fact that Shawn and Tosha wear the same outfits in both).
  • Although BJ doesn't appear during the Barney Segment in this video, he appears in the middle and in the end of this video.
• This video is dedicated with respect and admiration to the memory of Barbara Jordan, a founding board member and national co-spokesperson for the Character Counts Coalition.
• This video was filmed at Universal Studios, Florida.
