COLD OPEN

Cole wishes Merry Christmas and talks about today's program which Barney and his friends find Beth's Christmas star in the attic with Beth's grandparents Grammy and Grandpa Phillips. "Yes, Girls, Don't Worry. Beth Will Find One. She Would? Of Course. With The Whole Gang."

Christmas is fast approaching, so Barney and the children are quite excited. They help decorate the caboose for the Christmas holidays and build a "thinking" snowman in the park. Then, they visit a tree planted by Beth's great-great-grandfather that's now the prettiest, oldest tree in the park. Beth's grandmother is in charge of decorating the tree for Christmas this year, and everyone is shocked to find that the large star to adorn the tree's top is missing! Grammy suggests it's up in her attic and dispatches Barney and the children there to find it. Fun and playful mayhem ensue, with constant distractions from the search by various and sundry dusty "treasures" encountered. The kids, Baby Bop, and BJ discover- and they become- old-fashioned toys. All dictate a musical letter to Santa, typed on an old fashioned typewriter. When an ancient library is discovered, Barney reads 'Twas the Night Before Christmas to the group. The elusive star finally reveals itself, with some urging from the group. Barney and the children arrive back at the tree in time for the lighting ceremony. But the king conifer's grown too tall for its peak to be reached from a ladder! Barney magic ensures the proper placement of the star, and everyone is soon well on their way to a very Merry Christmas season!

Trivia

 * On the HIT Entertainment logo, the globe is bigger.
 * On TV rerun on Sprout in December 2013, the logo plasters to the current HIT Entertainment logo.
 * This video marked:
 * The third Christmas special in the Barney franchise. The first being Waiting for Santa and the second being Barney's Night Before Christmas.
 * The first Christmas special (not counting any Barney stage shows) to have Joe Phillips as a musical director.
 * The first Barney & Friends' Third Era Home Video, which means it is the first home video to take place at the park and the caboose.
 * The only Third Generation home video to feature the Season 6 Barney doll.
 * The final time Barney is voiced by Tim Dever.
 * The first video since You Can Be Anything to have a non-Asian actor of the male kids.
 * The final home video to have the end credits feature faded scenes in sequence.
 * The only Barney Christmas special where Tim Dever voices Barney.
 * The only appearances of Darnell, Kevin and Beth's grandparents.
 * The only time the big park is shown, as this was a prototype for the then-transitional park setting.
 * The final Barney Christmas video to be released on VHS.
 * Although Tim Dever voiced Barney in this video, Dean Wendt did voiced Barney in the promotional preview for this video.
 * At the end of the "Barney Theme Song", the rainbow swirly effect where it translates to the title card was not shown.
 * However, when this video aired on PBS, the rainbow swirly effect was shown.
 * Gianna made a cameo appearance in this video.
 * This video is revealed that Beth's last name is Phillips.
 * During "The Night Before Christmas", all four kids are seen sleeping in a bed at first, but when Darnell wakes up, he and Kami are the only ones there.
 * Although he appears in the story of "The Night Before Christmas" with the other kids, Darnell is nowhere to be seen for when Barney begins to read the story and for when he finishes reading the story.
 * This video was released on the same day as The Wiggles Yule Be Wiggling VHS reprint and DVD, and their Wiggly Wiggly Christmas VHS reprint, as such, The Wiggles Yule Be Wiggling DVD uses the same opening previews from this video, although the only exception of Barney's promo for PBS Kids
 * The holiday version of "I Love You" from this video would be later used in "A Visit to Santa".
 * The instrumental of the song, "I Love the Holidays", in the end credits is the same arrangement from the Barney Holiday Videos Preview.
 * In the original 2002 VHS release and the 2002 DVD release of this, the closing contains a commercial of "Barney's Move n' Groove Dance Mat", and a commercial of "Chuck E. Cheese's".
 * This video was featured in Children's Favorites: A Christmas Treasure.
 * The UK VHS & DVD release also included clips from Barney's 2002 UK Zoo Tour.
 * Half of this video was filmed in the Studios at Las Colinas while the other half has filmed at the new Marsh RD. Studio in Carrollton, TX.
 * This video takes place before "All Aboard!", which means this was filmed before Season 7. There were several evidences in this video on why it took place before Season 7:
 * Tim Dever voices Barney in this video (although Dean Wendt voices Barney in the preview for this home video) which means that Dean Wendt probably was not hired yet while shooting this video.
 * The magic sparkles that make Barney come to life, and BJ and Baby Bop disappear look slightly different.
 * The Season 6 Barney doll is used.
 * BJ and Baby Bop do not have their new mouth mechanisms (they still have their ones from the previous seasons). They would get mouth mechanisms similar to Barney's in Season 7.
 * A different BJ costume is used rather than the one that would later be used in Season 7.
 * According to Katherine Pully, the reason why Devante Warren (Darnell) and Sullivan McCormick (Kevin) were let go after this video and that they weren't able to appear on the television series was probably due to school duties.
 * Production for this video took place from August to September 2001.
 * For the 2002 PBS broadcast, "Just Imagine" is cut. Also, the credit sequence is slightly shorter and features an instrumental arrangement of "Oh, Christmas Tree" instead of "I Love the Holidays".
 * The 2002 US DVD release has no menu but the 2009/all Universal Rereleases have menus.

Goofs

 * When Barney throws the Christmas star to the top of the Christmas tree, the ladder next to the Christmas tree disappears.
 * When Barney says, "Well, I'm sure we'll find the right one soon.", you can see that his mouth is out of sync with the audio.
