My Friends Tigger & Pooh

My Friends Tigger & Pooh was an interactive children's television series inspired by Winnie-the-Pooh by A. A. Milne. The television series features Winnie-the-Pooh and his friends, including two new characters: a brave 6-year-old red-headed girl named Darby and her dog Buster. Although Darby appears to be the main human friend of Pooh and the gang and the leader of the Super Sleuths, Christopher Robin makes several cameos in the series.

Developed by Walt Disney Television Animation, the show premiered on Disney Channel's Playhouse Disney block on May 12, 2007. The show's theme song was written by Jellyfish lead singer Andy Sturmer and is performed by former Letters to Cleo singer Kay Hanley. In Season 2, Chloë Grace Moretz as Darby (replacing Kay Hanley) performed the theme. Also, beginning with this series Travis Oates assumed the role of Piglet, taking over for John Fiedler, who died in 2005, two years prior to the debut of the series.

On July 4, 2010, My Friends Tigger & Pooh was removed from the Playhouse Disney lineup, while it returned in October 3, 2010 with new episodes. However, since February 14, 2011, when Playhouse Disney rebranded into Disney Junior, the show was no longer broadcast.

Owl and Gopher
Owl and Gopher have not made any appearances in the series at all, although Beaver loosely resembles Gopher. Beaver is a cameo character from Walt Disney's classic, Lady and the Tramp.

However, in the direct-to-DVD film Tigger & Pooh and a Musical Too, when Beaver guesses the right password to go to Tigger's side of the Wood, Tigger disappointedly says "I miss Gopher."
