* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: The first season featured several original songs, and also a penchant for ending the episode with Pooh reflecting on the story's events with Christopher Robin, ending with "silly old bear". The pilot episode also included such an ending, but with the camera panning out to replicate the final shot of the opening credits. Many Season One episodes were also far more surreal and experimental, utilizing one-shot antagonists and different backdrops such as fictional settings or Christopher Robin's suburban home, while the later episodes usually played closer to the laid back setup of the books and original film.

Footage has been found of an original or demo version of the theme song, which was sung by Jim Cummings (the voice of Pooh) in his regular voice and in a more country style.



* ShoutOut: [[Music/KennyLoggins Kenny Loggins]] was the writer of the 1971 song "House at Pooh Corner," widely considered a classic song along with a loving tribute to Winnie-the-Pooh. Whoever sang ''New Adventures''' theme song sounds exactly like Loggins. If it isn't him, then Disney must have hired the best Kenny Loggins impersonator in the world.

* AdaptationalJerkass: Tigger is at his most jerkish and least considerate in this series, though it's very clearly not intentional -- he's just too much of a {{Cloudcuckoolander}} with a tendency to get carried away with himself to realize just how much trouble he gets the others into.

* JailedOneAfterAnother: In the episode "Up, Up and Awry", Pooh wants to learn how to fly, and when Owl explains to the others that to do so, he would have to "break the law of gravity", Rabbit and Tigger go full KnightTemplar to stop him. When Pooh ends up flying (kind of - a catapult was involved), they arrest Pooh, convert his house into a jail cell, and tell him he'll be out [[LongerThanLifeSentence in 300 years (!).]] Piglet says [[UndyingLoyalty he's not going to leave his best friend all alone for that long,]] and Tigger eagerly locks him up, too. Eeyore, who helped Pooh with his various flying schemes, agrees to be incarcerated as well. Owl says that he feels responsible for this whole mess and they lock him up. As Rabbit and Tigger prepare to leave, Rabbit laments that [[ExplainExplainOhCrap if only he had done something earlier, none of this would have happened...]] and of course Tigger locks him up too. Tigger is ready to leave alone until he notices that the jailbirds are making the most of it and having a tea party. Wanting to join the fun, he voluntarily jails himself. If it weren't for Christopher Robin, they'd probably all still be in there.

* CowboyEpisode: Happened a few times, usually with an in-universe excuse that it was a play ("Paw and Order") or a dream sequence ("The Good, the Bad, and the Tigger").



** In the WesternEpisode "The Good, the Bad, and the Tigger", in a dream sequence, Pooh is mistaken for a train robber and is arrested by the sheriff, played by Gopher, who remarks, "Looks like there's going to be a swingin'!" Pooh [[ComicallyMissingThePoint thinks this means playing on a tire swing]], but everyone else is horrified. That's right, even if only obliquely, in this show Winnie the Pooh is in danger of ''execution by hanging.''

* TrainingFromHell: An entirely unintentional example on the part of Rabbit in ''Tigger's Shoes''. In order to keep Tigger from wrecking his garden, Rabbit tricks him into trying to bounce to the top of Castle Ridge while wearing "The Jumping Shoes of the Awesome Bunny of Upsidaisy-a" (in reality normal tennis shoes weighed down with metal junk). While Tigger can barely get off the ground whilst wearing the shoes, they give him a fantastic workout, and when they come off he clears Castle Ridge in his sleep. Even when the ruse is revealed Tigger is elated, believing Rabbit to have been training him on purpose.

** Rabbit has a third one in "Fish Out of Water". After all the trouble of having Gopher as a house guest and trying to get his home back from the muttonhead trout, the thought of it happening ''again'' when the muttonhead trout swim back downstream was too much for poor Rabbit's mind to handle; he literally jumps in and starts swimming upstream with the muttonhead trout to get away from it all.

Despite ending it's run after four seasons, the show was kept alive for over a decade after through package films consisting of footage from the show, along with standalone episodes making ideal extras for many video and DVD releases of later Pooh featurettes.

** A few replacement actors that became mainstays also sound rather different here, (Ken Sansom's Rabbit and Peter Cullen's Eeyore in particular) having not fully mastered the voices yet, especially in earlier episodes, where Sansom's Rabbit voice was gruffer and less effeminate sounding and Cullen's Eeyore was higher-pitched and less breathy.

Similarly Jim Cummings starts filling in for Winchell as Tigger midway through the series, and the difference between the two takes is more noticeable here.

* JustTrainWrong: "The Good, the Bad and the Tigger" is full of this. It even provides the page quote. The tender seems to lack a water tank and Tigger can walk through the whole train even though it includes a boxcar. And the train does some physical impossibilities like braking so hard that the cars flip through the air and land back on the rails. After Pooh and Tigger rebuild the train, ''nothing'' it does should be possible. Then again, as Pooh put it, "[[ImagineSpot It's a fantasy]]".
