Fan Page: The New Adventures of Winnie The Pooh

[captain-slinky.livejournal.com]

The New Adventures of Winnie The Pooh came to us in the fall of 1988 and it was kind of epic. At the time, we kids may have thought "Oh great another cartoon for BABIES", but looking back on it I now see just how brilliant this cartoon was! THe Animation style, the storylines, the voice-acting - OMG THE VOICE ACTING!!! They had done a few new Pooh cartoons in the early 80's where the voices were just... well they *tried*, but the voices just weren't right. But with THIS cartoon, they got pitch-perfect voices for each and every character matching almost *exactly* with the original cartoons (which is NOT an easy thing to accomplish)!

I have all kinds of love for this cartoon. Share some love or dissenting opinions in the comments below, and then if you haven't already done so go ahead and vote for it in our Best of 1988/1989 Poll!

I really loved Winnie the Pooh, from the live action on Disney to this. I think they just did an excellent job.

I wish I could find that live action Disney Channel show on VHS or DVD somewhere... as well as ALice's Adventures and Dumbo's Circus. My daughter would LOVE them!

The theme song still makes me mist up a little bit.
