This article is about the cast. See Barney & Friends for the television show.

Dinosaurs

Barney

Barney the Dinosaur is a two hundred year old purple Tyrannosaurus Rex, who comes to life through a child's imagination. He is best known for his friendly, optimistic (and even generous) personality, his positive attitude. His theme song is the "Barney Theme Song". His other well known song is "'I Love You'," which has been parodied by many people. Barney likes most kinds of food, but his main favorites are a peanut butter sandwich and sandwiches made with pumpernickel bread, which is his favorite bread. According to Barney's Campfire Sing-Along, veggies are also a favorite of his. As Season 11, Barney has grown to like pistachios as well.

Baby Bop

Baby Bop is a green triceratops. Her name was given by Backyard Gang in Barney in Concert. She carries a yellow blanket, and sings the song "My Yellow Blankey" to show how much it means to her. She currently refers to herself as 3 years old. She likes to eat macaroni and cheese and pizza. She wears a pink bow on her head and pink ballet shoes on her feet.

B.J.

B.J. is a yellow protoceratops and he has been on the show since season 2. His theme song is "B.J.'s Song". He wears a red baseball cap on his head and red sneakers on his feet (as heard in the lyrics of his theme). He has lost his hat in the episode Hats Off to B.J.! and sometimes says stuff to hide fears(like in Barney's Halloween Party, he was shocked by the paper spiders and after learning they were fake, he said "I knew that, sort of."). Pickles are his favorite food and because of that, he actually has had them in different ways like pickles (also with pepperoni, peppers, pineapple and peanut butter) on a pizza (in Barney's Adventure Bus).

Riff

Riff (referred as Cousin Riff by Baby Bop) is an orange six year old hadrosaur, who is Baby Bop and BJ's cousin. He has appeared since season 10. He wears green sneakers. His theme is "I Hear Music Everywhere." Riff loves music and it's in almost everything he does. In Barney - Let's Go to the Firehouse, it was revealed that Riff also likes to invent things and he created a 4 sound smoke detector (the first 3 were different smoke alarm sounds, the final one was his own voice). He even likes Marching Bands and Parades as well as much Barney does.
