Playdate with Winnie the Pooh

I've personally never watched Winnie the Pooh growing up because I could never get into it. My SO did though and even then I feel we enjoy it more than our little one :) I feel it teaches some pretty good lessons fairly quickly, such as conquering fears or having to calm down before doing a certain task (at least that's what I gathered from them and what I've been teaching my girl). I just wish they were a bit longer and had a thicker plot but other than that I think it's a really cute art style and a pretty good way to keep the younger gens. Interested in things from our pasts. We're all looking forward to the newest episodes as the songs are fairly catchy :)

It seems ALL of the negative reviews are comparing this to older Pooh projects. You can't. This is something different. This is directed at toddlers, and for that this is as good as it gets. Lessons are great. The art is unique. The voice actors are actual kids, which always connect with kids more than adults pretending to be kids.

My only (yes, only) complaint is that the episodes are far too short. Not sure what their reasoning there is, but if these were even 5 minutes it would be better! But full 11 minutes would be great. If this was longer I'd give it 10/10 for sure! But where it stands, 8/10 will have to stay.

My 3 year old loves it. The music is tolerable and the animation is actually impressively rendered with lots of textures and a nice stop motion aesthetic.

The episodes are short (2 minutes) so my only qualm is on Disney plus it is not strung together as one longer program but as many individual episodes. The theme song / credit interludes get tedious.

I was astonished to find so many angry reviews from *ahem* adults complaining about a toddler snow. It "Ruined" Pooh Bear!? Pu-lease. Not every program will be tailored to you and I'm sure there will be more Pooh Bear in the future that fits the "classic" vibe you seem to be pining for. To see so many of these aggressive reviews from adults on a show aimed at kids...pathetic.

My kids were excited for this to come out only to find that the "episodes" are only two minutes long and Disney disabled the autoplay feature for this series so you have to change the episodes over for them every two minutes which is rather irritating as a busy parent who doesn't want to sit down and watch children's music videos. If Disney enables the autoplay feature for this series that would make a big difference, but the fact they also only put in the effort to make 2 minute long songs for every episode and marketed it as full length episodes just shows how grimmy Disney has become as a company and only helps to highlight them as a cash grab company that doesn't care about putting out quality work anymore. Disney is a dumpster fire trying to burn up everything in sight for a dollar.

Disney should stop salvaging their franchises and making them new to appeal to little kids. By redesigning characters and removing the original charm of these originals. They have ruined Winnie the Pooh for me and everyone else. So embarrassing and disgusting. It sickens me when studios recycle and make things worse for this new 2020 generation. Literally put your kids to watch the cartoons that made them the stars they are now. Not some stupid shorts about baby Pooh and baby tigger baby piglet playing with toys for 2 minutes. Could even bore a toddler who is a Pooh fan or whichever. Just stay away from this disgrace.
