TV.com summary |
The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh is an American animated television series made by The Walt Disney Company, and inspired by A. A. Milne's Winnie-the-Pooh stories. The series first aired from 1988 to 1991 on ABC. Reruns continued to air on ABC until Fall 2002 and then went on to air on Disney Channel. But on September 4, 2006, it left Disney Channel for good and its website and programming has disappeared. Also in November 2004, The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh was removed entirely from Toon Disney along with other popular Disney animated series. In the UK, the program continues to air daily on the Playhouse Disney lineup. As of now, this show no longer airs anywhere.
Prior to this TV series, Disney had produced four Pooh short films (Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree, Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day, Winnie the Pooh and Tigger Too! and Winnie the Pooh and a Day for Eeyore), one film which combined the first three shorts (The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh) and a TV puppet show (Welcome to Pooh Corner).
In addition to the characters who had already been established in the above media ( Winnie the Pooh, Eeyore, Tigger, Kanga, Roo, Rabbit, Owl, Piglet, Christopher Robin and Gopher), the TV series introduces a plethora of new characters including Christopher Robin's mother, Owl's cousin Dexter, Kessie the Bluebird, Junior Heffalump (and his parents), Skippy the Sheepdog, Stan Woozle and Heff Heffalump.
In the television program, Christopher Robin speaks with a distinctly American accent, the first time since the first Pooh short Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree. In all other previous shorts, he has an English accent.
Winnie the Pooh and Tigger were two of the cartoon characters featured in Cartoon All-Stars to the Rescue.
Additionally, Winnie the Pooh, Tigger, Eeyore, Piglet, Gopher, Rabbit, Kanga and Roo,Owl, Christoper Robin, Kanga, Roo and Eeyore were featured in House of Mouse and Mickey's Magical Christmas: Snowed in at the House of Mouse.
This is a darker Winnie the Pooh than the film or Welcome to Pooh Corner. It occasionally has moments of peril, such as Piglet being caught alone in a thunderstorm, as indicated in the intro. There is one episode where the characters go under Christopher Robin's bed and are attacked by anthtropomorphic crayons. The intro itself has a few scary moments.
