Playdate with Winnie the Pooh

My gosh this show sucks, my 2 and 3 year olds who love Winnie the Pooh hate this show because it's short and the redesigns are ugly. Why can't Disney just die at this point. And that new cars show is coming out soon which will probably be another failure. Disney needs to stop using these ugly Cocomelon redesigns and go back to their roots that made them popular in the day.

I really wanted to enjoy Playdate with Winnie the Pooh, but this series just missed the mark completely. The Pooh here feels so different and unfamiliar-he's not the warm, gentle, and lovable character we all grew up with. It's like they created a completely new version that doesn't capture the spirit or charm of the original Pooh at all. For longtime fans, this feels like a letdown.

After Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey stirred up so much buzz, Disney had a chance to do something good with Pooh that would remind us why we love him. Instead, this show just feels like a missed opportunity. If you want the real Pooh, this isn't it.

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.

We got backyardigans, Dora, Barney, and now Winnie the Pooh. Just stop. These awful redesigns that took inspiration from Cocomelon are soulless with no heart and make kids act up, it's unhealthy like eating McDonald's fats, sodium, and sugar for the kids like Cocomelon. Not good because these redesigns have child versions and unfaithful versions of these beloved characters modernized for this new generation. For example: Winnie the Pooh looks ugly and wears a hoodie. Wouldn't be suprised if they throw in an episode of the characters using phones or doing stuff. Look at the redesigns of pac man, Sonic, and mega man during the 2010s. Notice how pac man and mega man looked ugly and their ratings fell down because fans didn't like the redesigns. Not saying we should pull the Sonic card but these redesigns are awful for kids shows and sound nothing like Jim Cummings or whoever voiced them. Kids deserve better and not this junk.

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.
