* ExplainExplainOhCrap: "No Rabbit's A Fortress": When Rabbit is finally fed up with Pooh, Piglet and Tigger messing up his garden, he builds a colossal fortress around it, complete with booby traps, and harshly orders his friends to never bother him again. Unfortunately, he soon realizes that he has ''trapped himself inside the fortress''!
-->'''Rabbit:''' Now for a little peace and quiet. And gardening. Hmm. Where did I leave my shovel? Oh, yes, it's right outside ''THE DOOR?!'' ''[screams and panics]'' THE DOOR! ''[[DidntThinkThisThrough I FORGOT TO MAKE A DOOR!]]'' I can't get out! I'm trapped! ''DOOMED!''
* {{Expy}}: The crows from "A Very, Very Large Animal" seem to be based on Diablo from ''WesternAnimation/SleepingBeauty''.

-->'''Tigger''': Night!\\
'''Piglet''': Day!\\
'''Tigger''': Night!\\
'''Piglet''': Day!\\
'''Tigger''': Morning!\\
'''Piglet''': Evening!

** In "Three Little Piglets", when Pooh's attempt to read the story of the Literature/ThreeLittlePigs strays into a scene more resembling Literature/LittleRedRidingHood:

--->'''Rabbit''': How can we play with missing pieces?\\
'''Pooh''': By [[RolePlayingGame playing the missing pieces.]]\\
'''Tigger''': Are my ears on too tight or is Fluff Boy making sense?

-->'''Rabbit''': Happiness is seeing the benefits of good hard work. Ah... watching the things you planted with your own hands springing up fresh and green. And then.... MUAHAHAHAHAHA!!! HARVESTING THEM!!!

-->'''Rabbit''': Now for a little peace and quiet. And gardening. Hmm. Where did I leave my shovel? Oh, yes, it's right outside ''THE DOOR?!'' (''screams and panics'') THE DOOR! ''[[DidntThinkThisThrough I FORGOT TO MAKE A DOOR!]]'' I can't get out! I’m trapped! ''DOOMED!''

-->'''Sheriff Piglet''': If you don't confess soon, you'll have to face the judge.\\
''[He, Pooh, and Deputy Rabbit glance towards the judge, who is playing his harmonica]''\\
'''Judge Samuel J. Gopher''': And guess who gets to play the judge? Looks like there's gonna be a swingin'! ''[cue the EvilLaugh]''\\
'''Pooh''': [[ComicallyMissingThePoint A swinging? Oh, how wonderful! I love to swing!]]\\
'''Sheriff Piglet''': [[OhCrap Oh, d-d-d-dear!]]

-->'''Rabbit''': P-perhaps we should retreat and think this over...
-->'''Tigger:''' [[ByNoIMeanYes Never mind the retreat, let's get out of here!!]]

-->'''Rabbit''': Never. [[LetUsNeverSpeakOfThisAgain Never again.]]

-->'''Gopher''': Well, in that case, I just have to use dynamite again. Like my daddy always used to say, "What gets blown up must get blown down."
-->'''Rabbit''': No! No! Not dynamite again!
-->'''Gopher''': You're right! Better make it nitroglycerin. Wait, how about [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill U-235]]!

-->'''Gopher''': Oops. Looked like they *whistle* missed.
-->'''Townspeople''': What?!
-->'''Tigger''': That's not in the play!

-->'''Tigger''': Quiet, fellas! It's Long-ears! I'm comin' for ya, Bunny-boy! (''bounces on the dummy'') Wait a minute! This isn't Rabbit! I've been ''boobied''!

* ClothingDamage: The back of Pooh's shirt gets torn off at the end of "Gone with the Wind".

Surprisingly for the source material, this was a somewhat DarkerAndEdgier installment by Pooh standards, with real villains and peril for Pooh and friends in some episodes. It's also noted for having the occasional StoryArc such as the story of Kessie, a bluebird who Rabbit finds and adopts.

* DarkerAndEdgier: Compared this one to the original featurettes, and more to the later movies and shows such as ''My Friends Tigger and Pooh'' this show has surprisingly many dark and scary moments, even if most of them have a distinct comical undertone. While it's all still thoroughly light hearted and cutesy, this is probably as Dark And Edgy as you'll ever see Winnie the Pooh, aside from ''Pooh's Grand Adventure'', obviously.

* ExplainExplainOhCrap: "No Rabbit's A Fortress": When Rabbit is finally fed up with Pooh, Piglet and Tigger messing up his garden, he builds a fortress around it, complete with booby traps, and harshly orders his friends to never bother him again. Unfortunately, he soon realizes that he has ''trapped himself inside the fortress''!

* EldritchAbomination: Crud from "Cleanliness is Next to Impossible", [[VileVillainSaccharineShow at least by this show's standards]].
* EtTuBrute: Rabbit's nightmare in "Rabbit Marks The Spot" which causes him to worry of [[WeUsedToBeFriends losing his friends' trust]] when they found out that he hid rocks in the chest that he buried for them, [[spoiler:even though their reaction is quite the opposite towards the end.]]

'''Stone Piglet:''' It wasn't a nice thing to do, Rabbit!
-->'''Stone Pooh:''' You built up all our hopes!
-->'''Stone Tigger:''' You got us all excite-erated!
-->'''Stone Gopher:''' [[NiceJobBreakingItHero And what'd we get, huh? A bunch of rocks!]]
-->'''Rabbit:''' I'm sorry! It was just a joke! It was just a joke! '''''[[BigWordShout A JOOOOOOOOOOKE!!!]]''''' ''(wakes up from his nightmare)'' It was just a joke... just a... just a... [[CatchPhrase Oh, my]], it was just a bad dream!

* SuperstitionEpisode: In "Luck Amok", Tigger breaks a mirror in Rabbit's home, and Rabbit tells him that means seven years bad luck. Tigger dismisses it, as it wasn't ''his'' mirror that broke, and he tries to help Rabbit avoid bad luck, which just results in Rabbit getting one misfortune after another. Eventually, it's revealed that the mirror belonged to Pooh, so Tigger tries to help him avoid bad luck, with the same results. Eventually, after everyone but Tigger suffers from bad luck, it become apparent that Tigger is the one who is unlucky, so he's cast out. The others feel sorry for him and reverse the bad luck by "fixing" the mirror (taping a picture of Tigger so that he thinks it's his reflection).

* ShoutOut: The theme song singer sounds like [[Music/KennyLoggins Kenny Loggins]], who wrote the classic 1971 song "House at Pooh Corner," a loving tribute to Pooh. If it's not Loggins singing, then Disney hired a [[Main/SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute Suspiciously Similar Substitute]] that sounds exactly like him.

** In "Friend in Need" Rabbit asks how Pooh got into his house with the door locked, Pooh responds that his back door was open, which is what he did in ''Disney/TheManyAdventuresOfWinnieThePooh''. (Although the wooden door leading to the garden ''was'' the "back door" in that film.)

* RunningGag: As in [[Disney/TheManyAdventuresOfWinnieThePooh the movie]], Gopher still falls down one of his holes every now and then. But now even the other residents of the Hundred Acre Wood also fall in one of Gopher's holes every now and then.

* ShownTheirWork: Though more directly based on [[Disney/TheManyAdventuresOfWinnieThePooh the Disney featurettes]], occasional episodes make references to story material from the original A.A. Milne novels. In "The Big Switcheroo", for example, Tigger switches Piglet with Roo inside Kanga's pouch so Roo can avoid getting a bath (this story would again be adapted for part of ''Piglet's Big Movie''), while in "Eeyore's Tail Tale" Owl mistakes Eeyore's tail for a door bell (this story would again also be adapted for part of the 2011 Winnie The Pooh film).

* TheEeyore: [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Guess who.]] Although in the episode "Donkey for a Day," after surviving his friends' attempts at cheering him up, Eeyore explains that he isn't really depressed. In fact, he's happy because he gets to watch [[SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome the most breathtaking sunset ever seen.]]

-->'''Stone Gopher:''' [[WhatTheHellHero Genius, hm]]?
-->'''Stone Piglet:''' It wasn't a nice thing to do, Rabbit!

-->'''Rabbit''': Now for a little peace and quiet... and gardening. Hmm. Where did I leave my shovel? Oh, yes, it's right outside ''THE DOOR?!'' (''screams and panics'') THE DOOR! ''[[DidntThinkThisThrough I FORGOT TO MAKE A DOOR!]]'' I can't get out! I’m trapped! ''DOOMED!''

** The crows in "A Very, Very Large Animal" are much larger and more menacing than the very goofy and cartoony crows typically seen in the show.
