Barney (2004-2005)

Barney's head gets a total makeover, with wider eyes, a wider mouth, square-like teeth, and his hips became less round. His eyelids have become lower. Barney's voice goes up a little higher. In addition, Barney's skin becomes a lighter magenta, though not to the same extent as in 1995. Barney...A Helping Hand for Growing Children was a marketing campaign launched in February 2004. The campaign eventually evolved into a new post-show segment that only aired during Season 9 episodes.
