More like a Stu-u-u-u-u-u-pendous-ly disappointing Birthday

"BEFORE YOU READ THIS: Make sure you know, I'm a huge fan of Barney (as it says below in a way).
Thinking that this could be a bit of a reuinion, I anticipated for this since it was announced (as I did for Barney's 20th Anniversary in general). However, when HIT Entertainment had the Be A Star sweepstakes, things began to turn downhill. What I mean is, for us older Barney fans, we're screwed. The contest only allows 24 month-6 year olds enter. But the main topic here is this video, so I'll get on that.
Basicly, the kids are throwing Barney a surprise birthday party, with everything around nearly purple (even purple popcorn o_0). The thing that really annoys me is that they have to put a older clip from seasons 9 (which I didn't like too much anyway)-11 for nearly every song. It'd make sense if it was a Barney Songs video, but since it's not, it feels out of place. I don't blame Barney himself for this, instead on the ignorant people at HIT Entertainment. A message to them: "There are people who like Barney too (past the age range that is), like Fraggle Rock." Overall, I wouldn't recommend this and you should stick to Barney's Birthday for a video celebrating the purple one's special day. Hopefully, a boxset of Season 1 (and later 2 and 3) comes out someday."

"My nephew has been a fan of Barney ever since he was about 4. This DVD was so much fun for him. He has Down Syndrome and loves music so he learns with Barney while enjoying the characters and the music."
We love Barney

"My little girl loves Barney and I bought this birthday video for her 3rd birthday and she loves it. She learns so much from these videos."
