My Friends Tigger & Pooh is a computer animation television series, based on Winnie-the-Pooh by A. A. Milne. The television series features Winnie-the-Pooh and his friends, including two new characters: a 6-year-old red-haired girl named Darby and her dog Buster. Although Darby appears to be the main human friend of Pooh and the gang, Christopher Robin still appears sporadically. It is not known if Darby is related to Christopher Robin or just a friend of his.
Developed by Walt Disney Television Animation, the show premiered on The 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 sung by former Letters to Cleo singer and co-songwriter Kay Hanley. In Season 2, Chloë Moretz (USA) and Kimberlea Berg (UK) as Darby (replacing Kay Hanley) sing the theme. Also, beginning with this series Travis Oates assumed the role of Piglet, taking over for John Fiedler, who had died in 2005. As of 2009, the show currently airs outside of Playhouse Disney.

Episodes
Owl and Gopher
- Owl and Gopher have not yet made any appearances in the series, although the Beaver in the series loosely resembles Gopher and Woodpecker loosely resembles Owl. However, in the direct to DVD film "Tigger and 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."
