Barney tried to be as politically correct as possible by having wheelchair kid and hearing aid girl join in with the singing and dancing in the tree house and on the playground. Today those kids have grown up and are singing in high school. On Glee they have the wheelchair kid and the flamboyantly gay kid singing for their peers along with mr. misfit and the token fat black girl. Although Glee's formula is more of a "the unpopular kids are cool too" mixture where Barney's was a bit more "everybody's different" since popularity wasn't on every 5 year olds mind. The way it panned out with ages, the kids watching Barney are probably watching Glee now. Timing is everything.
