Mary Moo Cow

Mary Moo Cow is an upcoming American children's television series aimed at children from 1 to 8, created by Sheryl Leach and produced by HIT Entertainment. It premiered on April 3, 2017. The series features the title character Mary Moo Cow, a purple and white anthropomorphic cow who conveys educational messages through songs and a small dance in each episode with a friendly, optimistic attitude. The show is similar to that of Barney the Dinosaur & Friends.

Episode format
Every episode follows a strict format, focusing on the sole topic in every episode. These topics range from colors, shapes, and numbers to animals, birthdays, and even emotional situations such as friendship and fights.

Opening sequences
The series opens with the theme songs and the title card before dissolving into the school. The children are seen doing an activity, occasionally relating to the episode's topic. The children imagine something and Mary Cow comes to life from a plush doll, transforming into the "real" Mary Cow (Barney style), how she appears to the children while they're imagining.

Closing Sequences
Mary concludes Goodbye for Now before she dissolves back into her original stuffed and winks to the audience. After the children discuss a bit about what they learn, the sequence cuts to Mary Cow Says where Mary Cow, who is off-screen, narrates what she and her friends had done that day, along with still snapshots from the episode. Then Mary Cow, herself, signs off before credits roll.

Criticism
Several teenagers and parents criticized the show as a Barney knockoff and as a "rip-off", solely due to the fact that Mary Cow transforms from a plushie to a real, friendly cow.
