The logo of the Mary Moo Cow show.
Mary Moo Cow is a show about an anthropomorphic cow who entertains children in her barn. She often plays with young children who help her to teach basic lessons to viewers, often adding musical numbers and playing games while she does it.
D.W. is arguably Mary Moo Cow's biggest fan, the show being one of her main obsessions. She never misses it and if she does will freak out in front of everyone. In "Rhythm and Roots of Arthur," she says that there is "no such thing as a boring Mary Moo Cow episode" and claims that it "gets better with age" in "Framed!" She owns all of its merchandise and even owns some Mary Moo Cow's videotapes, even those in other languages (including Turkish). However, her brother Arthur does not like the show, thinking it to be a "baby show" that always repeats the same lessons over and over again. Thus, he often fights over the T.V. so he can watch what he likes and not that.
Mary Moo Cow was cancelled in "The Last of Mary Moo Cow", during which its final episode aired. D.W. became severely depressed by this and after seeing how a petition works on T.V., sent in her own petition to get the show back on, with her friends signing it.
Mary Moo Cow did eventually return to T.V., but ended up getting Dark Bunny (the sequel series to Bionic Bunny) cancelled in the process, much to Arthur's dismay. However, both shows appear to be on the air once again with no noticeable problem. D.W. still watches the show and its host obsessively.
In "Dear Adil", Adil found a Turkish Mary Moo Cow CD for D.W. and sent it to her.
In an alternate future in "D.W. and the Beastly Birthday," an older D.W. states that Mary Moo Cow was a "baby show," but that it had "a lot of adult references" in it.

Mary Moo Cow Production Team
The ending credits of Mary Moo Cow are shown for approximately 3 seconds in "That's a Baby Show!". Some of the names, such as "Richard Nixon" (a former U.S. President known for corruption), are obvious jokes, while others are references to actual Arthur show staff. For example, Enguan Xu was an early production coordinator for the series, while "Alex Tankushev" is likely a reference to Ivan Tankushev, who served as both an animation director and layout supervisor for the series.
