This third entry in Disney's animated-featurette series based on A. A. Milne's Winnie the Pooh tales was also the first directed by someone other than Wolfgang Reithermann. The story involves the efforts made by the other denizens of the Hundred Acre Forest to take some of the "bounce" out of Tigger (voiced by Paul Winchell), who can't stop hopping about. As ever, Sterling Holloway voices Winnie. Originally released December 20, 1974, the Oscar-nominated Winnie the Pooh & Tigger Too was followed up nearly nine years later by Winnie the Pooh and a Day for Eeyore (1983).
