  • Acting for Two:
    • Hal Smith voices both Pooh and Owl.
    • Will Ryan voices both Tigger and Rabbit.
  • He Also Did:
    • Ken Forsse, who designed the puppet-based characters, previously worked on various attractions for the Disney theme parks and Sid and Marty Krofft Productions, and the film Silver Bullet for Carlo Rambaldi.
    • Phil Baron (Piglet) and Will Ryan (Tigger and Rabbit) got their show-business start as a musical duo together, "Willio and Phillio." They later went on to play Teddy Ruxpin and Grubby, respectively, in The Adventures of Teddy Ruxpin, also created by Forsse.
  • Keep Circulating the Tapes: As of 2023, there has yet to be any official complete DVD release or digital release from Disney, nor is the series currently on Disney+. The only home media that exists for the series are a handful of out-of-print VHS compilations from the 80s and an educational DVD licensed by Disney that contains only two episodes, "Pooh's Great School Bus Adventure" and "Too Smart for Strangers."
  • The Other Darrin: Apart from Hal Smith as Pooh and Owl, most of this series' voice actors had not previously voiced their characters in the cartoons.
    • Phil Baron provides the voice of Piglet rather than John Fiedler. In fact, this is notable for being one of the very few, if not the only Disney-related Pooh media where Fiedler was not the voice of Piglet during his lifetimenote .
    • Will Ryan voices Tigger and Rabbit. He had previously voiced Rabbit in the animated Winnie the Pooh and a Day for Eeyore, but Paul Winchell had voiced Tigger as usual there.
    • Ron Gans voices Eeyore, Diana Hale voices Kanga and Kim Christianson voices Roo.
