History Trivia / TheNewAdventuresOfWinnieThePooh

* LongRunner: Lasted longer in reruns than in first run, actually. It started on The Disney Channel on January 17, 1988 and ran until April 10, 1988. It then moved to ABC in first-run from September 10, 1988 until October 26, 1991 (during the 1989-90 season it was paired up with the newly-moved-networks ''[[WesternAnimation/AdventuresOfTheGummiBears Gummi Bears]]'' as the ''Gummi Bears/Winnie-The-Pooh Hour''), then aired reruns until September 4, 1993. Reruns then started airing on ABC again on December 9, 1995, lasting through the entirety of the ''OneSaturdayMorning'' block (mostly to fulfill E/I requirements, however), continuing until that block's end on September 7, 2002. And of course there were the seemingly endless amounts of Pooh-related VHS tapes released during the 90s, reruns on the Creator/DisneyChannel from October 3, 1994 until September 1, 2006, and on Creator/ToonDisney from 1998 to 2008, to the point it probably made an observer think the show lasted ''way'' longer than it did.

* NoActorsWereHarmed: Anyone familiar with Creator/JackNicholson would be able to tell immediately who Nasty Jack in "Paw and Order" was based on not just in name and voice but even in his physical resemblance.

** Reportedly, during times where Cummings couldn't show up, Hal Smith also provided some odd voice work for Pooh for the series (having previously voiced him in ''A Day For Eeyore'').

** Cummings, meanwhile, inherited the role of Pooh from Sterling Holloway (who voiced Pooh in the original featurettes), who declined to reprise his role for retirement and health reasons ([[AuthorExistenceFailure he died just a year after]] ''New Adventures'' was canceled).

** The entire series, however, is available on YouTube, including the aforementioned episodes.

* HeyItsThatVoice: A mix of old and new Pooh regulars- Piglet, Owl and Tigger (most of the time) had their original voice actors. The current Pooh and usual modern voices for Eeyore (Creator/PeterCullen; yep, Optimus Prime himself (or, from a Disney standpoint, [[WesternAnimation/ChipNDaleRescueRangers season 1 Monterey Jack]]) is a depressed donkey), Rabbit and Gopher started voicing their characters around this time. The voices for Kanga, Roo and Christopher Robin were pretty much just for this series. Heff Heffalump meanwhile, was Chuck [=McCann=], aka [[WesternAnimation/FantasticFour The Thing]] and [[WesternAnimation/IronMan Blizzard]].

* TheOtherDarrin: By the time the third season began production, Creator/JimCummings, already voicing Pooh, replaced Paul Winchell as Tigger, reportedly due to Winchell's declining health[[note]]Winchell returned to voice Tigger in both ''Winnie the Pooh, and Christmas Too!'' and ''Pooh's Grand Adventure'', and continued voicing Tigger on occasions until his retirement in 1999 as his health worsened[[/note]].

* TheOtherDarrin: Halfway through the show's run, Creator/JimCummings, already voicing Pooh, replaced Paul Winchell as Tigger as well. (Winchell was very much still alive at that point and returned to voice Tigger in ''Pooh's Grand Adventure''.) Allegedly Hal Smith also provided some odd voice work for Pooh for the series (having previous voiced him in ''A Day For Eeyore'').

* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: A few episodes are available on the ''Growing Up With Winnie The Pooh'' [=DVDs=] and many VHS tapes contained episodes of the series back when that format was commonplace, but the vast majority of the series remains difficult to find. For those that have thrift stores, Goodwills or swap meets in their area, the VHS tapes are not uncommon finds there, along with a VCR to play them if you don't have one, often selling for $5 or less.

* {{Americanitis}}: In 1977, {{Jackanory}} aired original WinnieThePooh stories on CBBC (who also aired NoddysToylandAdventures and {{Pingu}}), but when this was first broadcast TheBBC could not believe their eyes! They were surprised at how Disney bought the rights to the protagonist! They were originally going to broadcast him on CBBC, but they didn't like how many superstitions there were, and thus, the cartoon aired on ITV.
