A kid-friendly version, Barney is addicted to pistachios and even makes several snacks with them. His friends help him to understand moderation. One of the writers pitched the subject as a joke due to having to write conflict-based episodes instead of the previous curriculum he was used to.

Sometimes, but they’re either puppets, art projects, or animated and it’s mainly for the song, “The Itsy Bitsy Spider”. The one in Barney in Concert may look creepy, but it isn’t intended to be.

From episode 4 to episode 10, Tina has her arm in a cast, she explains how it broke but we never see it happen, but she hurts it on accident while spinning a hula hoop on it. In episode 11, she gets it removed.

It depends. Barney's transformation from a Doll to Real Life can be very sudden.

Yes. in "My Friends, The Doctor and the Dentist". But the scene isn't meant to scare anyone, as it teaches us that the Doctors aren't scary.
