1* CrossesTheLineTwice: A lot of the story would likely cross into TooBleakStoppedCaring were it not for who the main antagonist is.
2* FridgeBrilliance: [[spoiler:[[UsefulNotes/AdolfHitler Hitler]] is the only one visited by Barney who was not a child. Hmmm, [[PsychopathicManchild what that could hint at]]?]]
3* SugarWiki/FunnyMoments: [[spoiler: There's something awfully funny about Barney cussing in Part II.]]
4* HarsherInHindsight: This story became harder to read after the release of the documentary ''Series/ILoveYouYouHateMe'' in 2022, which shows that the hatedom of ''Barney & Friends'' did, in some cases, escalate to actual violence.
5* HilariousInHindsight:
6** The premise of the fic is that all the world's adults have been eradicated leaving the children behind, and humanity is ruled by creatures that are Really700YearsOld. Later, a few humans work to overthrow these creatures, with help from one of them. This sounds similar to the premise of the anime ''Manga/SeraphOfTheEnd''.
7** The plot to eradicate everyone 13 years old and older is similar to the motive of the [[WesternAnimation/CodenameKidsNextDoor Kids Next Door's]] Splinter Cell [[spoiler:and its true identity as the Galactic Kids Next Door]], except here, the genocide is orchestrated by an adult (Barney), not the children themselves.
8* UnintentionalPeriodPiece: Several things such as the lack of [=BJ=] and Riff (the third and fourth dinosaurs, respectively, introduced in the show following Baby Bop and Barney), mentions of the huge popularity of Barney himself, and other things such as trends mentioned in the fanfics firmly place the trilogy as a product of the 1990s.
