Barney’s World: I Love Me Too, a new 23-minute special from Mattel Television Studios, is set to premiere on the Barney the Dinosaur YouTube channel on January 31.
In the special, Baby Bop discovers that she suddenly has the power to glow, but when she accidentally launches her friend’s toy rocket into outer space, she loses both the rocket and her powers. Barney and their friends join her on a journey to recover them, and Baby Bop ultimately realizes there is no special power—self-love is what made her glow.
Viewers will meet Bartholomew Bookworm, a new character being introduced to the Barney’s World franchise. Bartholomew Bookworm is an excitable and friendly worm who lives at the library and loves to help others learn.
The two new songs in the special are “Gotta Find My Glow” and “What I Love About Me.” Music videos will be available to watch on YouTube and stream globally on all audio music platforms on January 24 and January 31, respectively. They will be offered in English, French, German, Greek, Italian, Japanese, Spanish, Polish and Turkish.
The special will be available in English, Brazilian Portuguese, French, German, Greek, Italian, Japanese, Latin American Spanish, Polish and Turkish.
Barney’s World is co-produced by Mattel Television Studios and Corus Entertainment’s Nelvana. It is executive produced by Michelle Mendelovitz and Josh Silverman for Mattel and Athena Georgaklis, Mellany Welsh, and Pam Westman for Nelvana.
