Pooh's Adventures is an American absolute shit show of an animated television series created by Alex Kurtzman, Roberto Orci, and Tommy Risotto that aired on ABC from January 2012 to April 2020 for seven seasons. The series features a large cast of voice actors led by Dylan Langley as the titular Winnie-the-Pooh, who is depicted in the series as this fuckass yellow bear from the mean streets of Manchester who works as a hitman and spends all his spare time drunk, high, gambling, street racing, or at least two of those combined. The series' first season maintains a typical "semi-serialized" network TV drama format that covers Pooh Bear's smaller misadventures, but subsequent seasons focus on him going on some absolutely absurd adventure—whether through the city or through time and space itself—which involves him teaming up with too many fictional characters from too many works to list.
Pooh's Adventures was originally conceived by Disney CEO Bob Iger in 2008 as a feature film for Walt Disney Animation Studios. Kurtzman and Orci were among a slew of writers Disney commissioned scripts from before Walt Disney Pictures abandoned the project and their script was redeveloped by Risotto as a television pilot for ABC in late 2009. This shit was produced by Imagine Television, Original Film, K/O Paper Products, Production 3rd, Disney Television Animation, and ABC Studios. The series was primarily animated using Source Filmmaker and later Garry's Mod and VRChat, with extensive VFX work done thereafter. Budgeted at $500 million per episode during its last four seasons, this shit is one of the most expensive network TV shows ever.
Pooh's Adventures received mostly positive reception throughout its run, with seasons 3 and 4 in particular receiving universal acclaim. However, the show has also garnered accusations of stereotyping British people, transphobia, and glorifying torture. It received over 80 industry awards over its nine seasons, which include the 2019 Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Drama Series. It's appeared on too many lists of the greatest TV shows of all time.
