Barney has a new look to his old pad in this direct-to-video release. Using Barney's favorite tool--imagination--we find that his house has many surprises, including rooms filled with bubbles, butterflies, and beach balls. This 45-minute tape is song-filled as kids meet up with Barney's pals BJ and Baby Bop to discover lots of things, from making sour pickle faces to the wonders of pumpernickel bread. Although this production is not as episodic as the popular TV show, Barney has hardly changed in a dozen years, and in some ways has been passed by other educational shows. When BJ starts a band, nothing is taught about music or instruments as a Blues Clues episode might teach. And the humor seems old, even when Barney tries to be up to date. When Barney talks about a computer, it's with a surfboard-carrying mouse (computer mouse, get it?) named Murray who sings about "surfin' on the World Wide Web" without explaining anything about the Internet. Still, for youngsters who like the appealing and colorful world, there is more here than the average show from the purple dinosaur. (Ages 2 to 6) --Doug Thomas

5.0 out of 5 stars Come on Over to Barney's House, September 29, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Barney - Come on Over to Barney's House [VHS] (DVD)

My son absolutely loves this one! I watched it with him and this unlike many of the other Barney video's actually asks your child to get involved. Certain characters come over to Barney's house for a short visit and Barney gives you a clue (which is sometimes a song) as to who the guest is and then asks you "Who do you think that is?". It's wonderful!

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Barney - Come on Over to Barney's House [VHS] (DVD)

I have been a Barney fan since I was born ! (1991) You might say I'm the oldest and biggest fan of all. This has been the greatest video of all time even since there have been others sinnce this one. There are new sets and songs. Barney videos just get better as they go. Use your imagination!!!!!!!!!!

2.0 out of 5 stars Not one of the best, March 28, 2002

This review is from: Barney - Come on Over to Barney's House [VHS] (DVD)

My daugthers (1 and 2.5) are quite huge Barney fans but they don't seem to like this one quite as much. Some of the things they did - like using the computer to surf the WWW and the globe to visit other countries seemed to go over their head. There wasn't enough singing and dancing - too much talking! They enjoy seeing Barney's house and point all the wonderful things out to me but they always prefer to watch one of the other Barney videos we have with more singing and dancing.
