The Adventure Screen

The Adventure Screen

The Adventure Screen is a segment that appeared in the Barney franchise from 1995 up to 2000.

The Adventure Screen was originally a real TV set that had to be turned on manually when it debuted in Season 3. In the show's first appearance, "Shawn & the Beanstalk", Barney told them that it was more than a TV. In Camp WannaRunnaRound, it was changed to a square CGI image like The Backyardigans that carried the video that Barney was showing to the children, and featured a cloudy sky border. On the screener version of said video, it was rounder, smaller, and also had a rainbow and a cloud around it.
