Paddington Bear is an American-British animated comedy TV series produced by Hanna-Barbera in association with Central Independent Television, for syndication on stations that took part in The Funtastic World of Hanna-Barbera programming block. It ran from 1989 to 1990, airing 13 episodes.
It is an adaptation of British author Michael Bond's books starring the little brown bear called Paddington, first published in 1958, appropriately called A Bear Called Paddington. This series is the second Paddington series after the solely British-produced Paddington, which aired from 1976 to 1980, also written by Bond. Bond served as a creative consultant on the Hanna-Barbera version.
In the series, Paddington's aunt sends him from Peru to London, in hope of Paddington being adopted by a nice British family who can take care of him, which turns out to be the Browns, who quickly do just that, taking him in as one of their own. What sets this incarnation apart from the books, is the addition of the Browns American relative, David Russell, who adds absolutely nothing extra to the series, and may have been added simply so American children wouldn't feel completely ostracized anymore from already watching a talking bear living in modern-day England.
The entire series has been released on DVD.
