Bob Singleton Reveals Threats over Barney Songs
Bob Singleton, the musical director of the popular children's TV show 'Barney & Friends,' revealed he received numerous death threats over the show's songs. Despite the show's success from 1992 to 2010, Singleton faced severe backlash, including threats of violence against him and his family. The internet amplified these threats, as it allowed disgruntled viewers to easily contact him. In a podcast, Singleton shared an incident where a man at a luncheon expressed a desire to harm him, highlighting the intense dislike some adults had for the show's music. The documentary 'I Love You, You Hate Me' further explores why Barney, a character loved by children, was so despised by some adults. This animosity towards a children's show, known for its themes of friendship and love, remains a perplexing cultural phenomenon.
