The Goonie Show, not to be confused with The Goonies, is a Beanie Boo web video series that was uploaded to YouTube by Ryan Linnea, who created her channel on September 25th of 2015.
The series started in November 6th, 2016, but ended in December of 2019 on the 26th, with the first episode being titled, “Candy!” and last “Anabelle’s Weird Christmas” The reason why Ryen decided to discontinue the series was because of her losing interest in Beanie Boos as she got older, which lead to her deleting the videos in 2023, with only the video of her Beanie Boo collection still out in public. Thankfully, other YouTubers have archived the videos and reuploaded them to YouTube.
The reuploaded videos can be watched in this playlist![]()
