Trivia / Moomin (1969)

• Disowned Adaptation: The Moomins creator Tove Jansson disapproved of the changes made by the show, feeling that it strongly misinterpreted her work and intentions for the characters. She voiced particular dislike for its depiction of Moomintroll, who was made into a more scrappy and ambitious character. The series was soon discontinued, and Jansson refused for it to be licensed overseas. This adaptation has also never made it to DVD, because two different studios worked on it, as well as not being able to obtain permission from Jansson's estate.
