  • I really like this version of the song "Come Dream With Me Tonight". Yours is the best quality version on Youtube, stereo too :)

  • I KNEW I DIDN'T DREAM THIS!!! OMFG YES I HAVEN'T SEEN THIS SINCE I WAS 3 OR 4 YEARS OLD!!!!!!!!! SOOOOO FUCKING EPIC!!!!!!

  • I used to take the battery out of his back and hide stuff in there.

  • Haven't seen this version of the pilot series in years.

    Nice find.

  • i didn't see this when i was 5 years old at all

  • I own this on VHS!!!!!!!!!! And I have a digital copy. #winning #nostalgia

  • i cartridge tilted a nintendo 64 if anyone cares... : /

  • The catpillar freak,sounds like Barney... Barney?

  • Ah! The DEVIL!

  • I have this on video somewhere.... Only the pure of spirit may find the treasure of knowledge.... 

  • I just picked up a teddy ruxpin bear at a antique store for 4 dollars. It is the backpack ver of the bear with the MP3 carts. The doll is great shape, but missing the battery pack tray. I found one on E Bay and have it on order, once it arrives I will give the bear to my daughter.

  • @speedy1964 We dont care bout ur life betch.

  • I LOVE TEDDY RUXPIN!

  • Wow! I remember the cartoon but I don't remember this. Nice find!

  • hey have you been undressing my Teddy Ruxpin again?

  • creepy that will be in my nightmares to night but it takes me back

  • the movie isnt tht rare u can get it for about $10 on amazon

  • Teddy Rupskin was a fucking retarded shit fuck!!!

  • @MsJamieclark HEY IT DOES NOT MATTER IF YOU DONT LIKE IT DONT WATCH IT

  • Yeah this was the 1st one made! Then when kids couldn't get enough of Teddy Ruxpin, they made the animated series... I was a Teddy Ruxpin fan when i was little and watching this brings me back to those days :)

  • I loved teddy ruxpin so much, thanks much for uploading and sharing :)

  • I remember his voice being hotter.

    That is cool he did the voice of Piglet.

  • omg memories.

  • One helluva presentation. Must've cost a bundle to do, but it shows in the quality.

  • Yes, I remember this special. I watched it so many years ago. A shame the live-action one didn't continue - I think it had potential.

  • I vaguely remember this show. 80s tv was the best!

    I loved the beginning when Teddy's mom was singing to him and he was only a baby. So cute and a great way to start a show like this. So cute.

  • Oh my goodness. A random funny internet graph mentioned Teddy Ruxpin, and it sent me 15 years back. This used to be one of my favorite things in my early childhood. How could I have forgotten? Thank you for posting this.

  • are they small people in costumes?and they are lip talking ?

  • @kawaii51514 Most are normal sized people in animatronic costumes. Baby Teddy in the beggining was also animatronic, but he was not a costume.

  • thank you!!!

  • amazing!!! used to watch this all the time as a kid . thanks for the post!

  • Teddy's mother here reminds me of my one aunt.

  • i dunno, this feels too much like barney to me, especially with grubby's voice.

    but dang if it wouldn't pick up when they're fighting the gutangs, that would be sweeeeeeeeeeet....

  • Teddy's mother has a very soothing voice and baby Teddy is cute.

  • you don't hear voice acting like this anymore... great memories

  • I owned this video as a child. I played it to death. Brings back a lot of memories. Thanks for posting.

  • this was my favorite movie as a kid. LMAO

  • I hope we see CGI Teddy Ruxpin movie.

  • @tdickensheets

    That'd be interesting using Avatar technology from WETA since Avatar did an amazing motion capture job unlike Polar Express with the dead-eyes and flaws and all. Now i think Steven Buscemi should be the voice of Tweeg, Wilford Brimley as Gimmick, Aaron Stanford (X-Men 3 and Hills Have Eyes) as Teddy, Jamie Lee Curtist as Teddy's mother, and Jim Carrey as Grubby's voice.

  • My grandmother recorded this for me and my sister years ago, but I vaguely remember this special, myself.

    This definitely reminds me of Pooh Corner -- mostly because they were produced by the same company -- but the only question I have is: if Newton is a human, why wasn't he played by a live actor?

  • @ApacheMan2K I believe they went with the puppet for Gimmick so there would be consistancy regarding the "actors." If one of them was a real human amongst puppets, it would seem out of place and "wrong." By having them all puppets, it becomes easier to identify with all the characters, not breaking the suspension of disbelief.

  • @ApacheMan2K

    The only live actor is the fairy.

  • I remember this! jesus! only on the first one...hoping the mud monster things are in the next ones!

  • Wow, I love the animated series but don't remember this one. Does anyone else?

  • omg!!!!!!

    i have not seen this in years!! I remember watching the shit outta this on our old beta tape player

  • Oh god, this takes me back. I was unsure if this had really existed or if my brain was just fabricating things to go with the live-action intros to the animated series VHS tapes. Good to know this wasn't just some false memory :D

  • Wow i remember seeing Teddy Ruxpin live on stage i was so hyper i couldn't stay in my seat.

  • @frog1812

    Really? that is neat. I remember i saw The Muppets live on stage in 86 when i was 5 years old when i lived in St. Louis

  • @Johnlindsey289 I seen the Muppets too when i was about the same age in Bangor, Maine :P

  • I remember this episode

  • the bear lady at the begining had a really pretty singing voice

  • Thanks for uploading this

  • i remember buying this at those junk sale blue peter things on video at primary school!

  • I still got a VHS at home that used to belong to my brother, of one the episodes. I remember it came with a little book to write in.

  • OMG i used to watch this as a kid! How on earth did you ever find it??

  • He's probably dying to make buttermilk doughnuts! Eh heh heh heh heh! XD

    Love LB.

  • I like how Gimmick casually was able to pwn the Bounders. Like if he does that every morning. XD

  • @TheCastellan: He probably does.

  • Always loved those Bounders.  XD

  • we had all the vedioes, but someone stold them from us,,, ;(

    I wish i had them today to shoe my baby boy.. ; (

    think there be a dvd set?

  • oh my friggin' gawd i actually remember watchin' this when i was a wee tike. i even had a Teddy Ruxpin toy. what the hell happened to that thing anyway?

  • its gurbbys voice BARNEY?????

    its sound JUST like him idk please anster

  • I haven't seen this since I was about 6 ior 7 years old. I watched this many times when I was a kid. Brings back memories.

  • Teddy's Mom is hawt

  • i was 2 when this came out

  • OMG.. The voice track is on my New bear's AIRSHIP MP3... WOW... I will have to show this to my mom....

  • If you've ever seen the show "Welcome to Pooh Corner" back in the 80s, which was similarly done like this Teddy Ruxpin show, the voice of Teddy (Phil Baron) was also the voice of Piglet.

    The creator of Teddy Ruxpin, Ken Forsee, also worked on that show developing the animatronics which were later innovated to create the original Teddy Ruxpin doll.

  • nice factoid, i am ashamed to admit hehe

  • @83phatman Also sounds like the same guy who did Tigger for Grubby, but I could certainly be wrong.

  • @TheSnuzzle >> The voice of Grubby is Will Ryan. Wouldn't be surprised if he were the voice of Tigger as well.

  • @83phatman

    He's also Prince Aaron's voice and the voice of Petrie in Land Before Time and in various cartoons even as Goofy in a few 80's Goofy toons.

  • @83phatman fuck you

  • @83phatman And Grubby (Will Ryan) did Tigger on that show, too.

  • the funny thing is that when my brother was a baby, he hit my other brother in the head with a teddy ruxpin.

    the voice actor for teddy sounds familiar, does anbody know if he voiced anybody else?

  • I did watch the cartoon and liked that one too!!! I had two favorites: the episode where they shrank and the Grungeball episode. I liked both. Apparently, I read an interview with the voice of Teddy and he mentioned an episode where Teddy's family appears. I may have to buy the DVD sets to find that episode.

  • I rented this video so many times when I was a little kid. Even though I'm in my 20s, I still held onto my Teddy, although he's been long since worn down. Well loved and he's still around. Great memories watching this video!!!

  • Have you seen the cartoon? awesome stuff.

  • I remember this. I was 11 when it came out. It was a special, but also joined in the animated shows. They put it in to separate the last cartoon made, and the first one made. Not sure if it will come out on DVD though...

  • Brings back memories of when my children were young. Time sure flies.

  • Baby Teddy is SO cute!

  • I agree but i think it's one of the dolls that they were gonna market.

  • Had this shit on BETA.....HA! hilarious

  • You gotta admit the puppetry is amazing here including the animatronics, no CGI bullshit.

  • @Johnlindsey289 I think its actually people in costumes except for the bounders

  • But i do remembered when this first aired on ABC back in 1986 when i was 5

  • I didn't knew this was a pilot, the cartoon was superb though. I was born in 1981 and i had one of those Dolls and i watched the cartoon every weekday morning and DIC did the animation, the guys who did Inspector Gadget, Real Ghostbusters, Sonic The Hedgehog, COPS (The cartoon), and other great cartoons.

  • same here pal. i was born in 1982. but you know i don't recall seeing this on tv.

  • You saw it on video right? did you ever watch the cartoon? they have an episode of it here on youtube which is my favorite episode Guests of the Grudge where Aaron becomes that kickass mnster.

  • yea i did watch the cartoon years ago. but some how once i got older. i never watched it anymore. thanks to rockchick2112 it brought back my Childhood Memory. well some of my childhood memory was bad. but some were good.

  • Do you think the cartoon is up there with 80's toon classics like GI Joe, Real Ghostbusters, Transformers, He-Man, Thundercats, She-Ra, Bravestarr, COPS, Ducktales, Gummi Bears and more?

  • maybe. but what rockchick2112 sayed that this the adventures of teddy ruxpin live-action was in 1986. i was talking about that.

  • Was this the pilot for the animated series?  I rarely recall seen this at some point in 1987. However it was the animated series that was being shown.

  • This one was made first, and was a pilot for a potential live action show. However, it was deemed too expensive an idea, so they nixed it and went with animation instead.

  • @rockchick2112 Yup, you're right. As irony would have it though, this show did end up in syndication, with the cartoons, but was shown as a 2-part show. I think it said "To be continued..." around the spot where the rocks were falling in.

  • @rockchick2112 inmagin if they had went wit this 1 instead 20 X better

  • this was quite well done...I used to watch the cartoon, it was both extremely cute and magical. 'come dream with me tonight'

  • 3:23 on... Goombas!

  • thank u sooooooooooo much!!! i used to ave this on video and recemtly gave my little girl my teddy ruxpin i was trying to find on dvd 4 my daughter 3 c but with no joy!!!! but now i can show her this instead thank u

  • thank you so so much for posting this i missed it the first time around and i was so sad of that but now thanks to you the good lord jesus that i found youtube and thank you so much gigahugs and the beginning had a lil static in the sound ooo thats awesome

  • Wow, this must have been really expensive to produce.

  • "He's probbably dying to make buttermilk donuts."

    LOL

    XD

  • Thank you so much for posting this. Brings back great memories!

  • how did ABC get this TV show and i'm from the 90's

  • man, I never thought I'd see this again in my lifetime. this video, along with Teddy Ruxpin himself, was one of the cornerstones of my childhood. it's one of the very first movies I remember ever seeing. can't wait to watch the rest.... I love youtube!!

  • Ah, memories. I have seen this on VHS back in the mid-1990s.

  • DAMN I USED TO WATCH THIS WHEN I WAS LIL

  • Actually, this aired on November 30, 1985.

  • omg I haven't seen this in years. Thanks for posting it brings back so many memories. I saw this so many times when I was a kid.

  • that is cute

  • God this movie brings back the memories.

    I probably saw this about 100 times as a kid. lol

  • i have this on video!!

  • I didn't get to experience all of the Teddy Ruxpin awesomeness so much, I think it was dying down a little by then. But I remember this movie. I'm pretty sure we have this one on VHS somewhere. my brother and I would watch it all the time when I was little.

  • this is pretty cool. though, i think in here, as well as the toys, grubby looked kinda odd looking, yet at the same time, he still looked pretty cute.^.^then again, prince aaron also looked pretty odd looking in this movie compared to the book illistations and the cartoon.

  • you can tell that welcome to pooh corner had alot to do with this as well as Dumbo's Circus.

  • Teddy Ruxpin co-creator Ken Forsse developed the suits for both of those other shows you mention.

  • The mouth movements are very similar in those shows which is why i can tell where this came from.

  • Wow, this immediately gave me goosebumps...this used to be my favorite movie from when I was 2 to 5 or 6...unbelievable.

  • Man. I was looking for this and thank you finding it! It's extremely rare to find this special! Teddy Ruxpin looked good when the special was in live action.

  • I remember every time I was sick when I was little I had to watch this movie. Teddy Ruxpin for the win.

  • Brings back memories. I can imagine what Nostalgia Critic would have to say about this.

  • I will be 29 in 1 day and i promise you. The same Teddy Ruxpin i bought in 1986 still works and so do all the tapes. I even have the adventure books and of course grubby who you could connect to Teddy Ruxpin

  • Damn!!! I've spent the past 10 years wondering if this was actually real. All you can find is information about the animated series.

    I knew I didn't imagine this!±

  • I can't believe I remember these. I used to watch them when I was 6 Lol

  • I rented this years ago. Thank you so much.

  • I hope this on DVD.

  • I'd love to see the commercial breaks from the original 1986 ABC airing, whoever has it. :)

  • LOL the baby Teddy is a toy Teddy Ruxpin. I loved this series, it didn't talk down to children and if something was morally wrong (i.e. tweeg and the bounders steeling stuff) kids knew right away that it was wrong.

  • WOW nostaligia overload! I used to watch this all the time!! I'm 27 now....Damn it's been that long already???

  • i used to have teddy and he read a story i miss it

  • 1986?! Has it really been that long?

  • this use to be my favorite show(animated one) misses watching it. Anyone know how many epidoses there were?

  • 65- you can find the boxed sets on Amazon <3 thats where I got mine ^^

  • this was my show as a kid. men how the years go by. wish i was a kid again.

  • dude, i used to watch this allll the time!!!!

  • This is soooooo awesome! Thanks so much for posting this :)

  • Is it just me, or are Grubby's eyes green instead of blue?

  • Teddy Ruxpins voice is the same voice of the elfling from "The Dark Crystal." and Grubbysounds familiar but i cant put my finger on it.

  • I think Grubby is voiced by the same guy that does Goofy..

  • i actually did some research and found, the guy that did voice for grubby(Will Ryan) is the same guy who did "Tigger","Rabbit" and "Eeyore". He also did the voice for "Petrie" the the animated film "A land Before time".

  • WOW Will Ryan is an amazing man! My childhood in a voice...*sigh* lol

  • thanks for posting this brings me back to the good ol' days XD

  • that almost made me cry... i used to watch this when i was like 3-4 years old. back when life was simple :(

  • Lol, jk. I always wanted to post a comment like that on one of these kiddy videos.

  • this is starting to help me understand my confusing dreams but still make me feel weird

  • Teddy is due for a comeback!

  • My cousin had a Teddy Ruxpin. I remember owning one of the videos (Take a Good Look) but I forget what happened to it. I also remember renting this special a long time ago.

  • THANK YOU for uploading this! I miss this so bad! I used to have 2 Teddy Ruxpin bears. I ended up wearing the cassette tapes out. I always thought Grubby sounded like a deep version of Goofy.

  • I watch this! I got my Teddy Ruxpin made by Back Pack Toys!

  • haha teddy ruxpin!!! my brother and i used to watch this all the time when we were little, had the bear and everything, but none of my friends have heard of this!!

  • Teddy factory is short after salling the bears, all over the world, being declared bankrupted,so no one could,send the broken bears back, world of wonder alright!

  • OHHH man does this bring me back, thank you thank you thank you YouTube! Ya know the 80s had some great movies, characters and tv shows. I think they have a factor that is really lacking in our kids shows today!

  • Teddy Ruxpin would bite your finger when he talked.

  • It was this theme that made me watch this movie. I loved every bit of the theme and the movie and I'll always love Teddy. Thank You for making my childhood dream come true. *sniff* 8)

  • omg its a squig

  • wow Thank You!! I've been trying to convince my family that this actually exists. i've been looking for it everywhere!

  • Ahhh, this bring back wonderful childhood memories. Thank god for Youtube!

  • In a way it's the closest thing we have to a time machine right now, isn't it?

  • OMG OMG OMG!!!!! I lo0o0oved this when I was lil'!!! I've been going nuts trying to find it!!!!!

  • Oh, what a happy thing do find this here. I never knew there was a Movie.

    Thank you very much.

  • Liked this as a kid, now it sounds kind of homoerotic. And is Grubby doing drugs? "mmm..roots."

  • Leonardo's voice? XD

  • You, miss, are my hero. I haven't seen this in years. Thank you.

  • Oh my god! Thank you so much! I have been looking to buy this for years. I had it as a kid and it was one of my favorite cartoons. I can only find it in PAL format in the UK and cannot find a VHS for the states. You just made my day!

  • Those "roots" look a little....yeah....anyway!

  • Oh thank you, I haven't seen this since I was a kid--- years ago. I loved it then I love it now

  • I love this movie as well as the cartoon

  • aww i remember this

  • OHHH MY GOD!!! This is amazing i haven't been able to find it! I loved this as a kid and have always wanted to see it again!

  • Who here besides me thinks that ALL of the voice actors should've been used for the cartoon, not just Phil Baron and Will Ryan for Teddy and Grubby?

  • Wow, thank you soooo much for posting this. I remember renting this movie over and over again when I was younger, and I've been searching for any trace or credit of it for a while now. I can't seem to find any information on it anywhere. Very much appreciated!

  • Newton Gimmick reminds me of my old High School shop teacher! lmao. *sigh* If only they made a video game based on this show, though. That would have been tight.

  • Man I Thought The Same Thing I Looked Everywhere Online Like Google And Ebay And The Only Thing That Was Coming Up Was This Movie In Cartoon Format. Does Anyone Know Where I Can Get This On DVD Or VHS????

  • Thank you so much for putting this up! I was starting to think that I had just made up the memory of this movie! Ahhh... escape back to childhood....

  • this is the greatest thing ever

  • grubby sounds like a cross between barney the purple dinosaur and goofy. kinda makes ya feel all warm and fuzzy inside. :)

  • awwsome i remember this from when i was 6 thanks!!!

  • Does anybody know where I can find this I've looked on ebay and amazon but nothing Please tell me where to go.

  • Your best bet is to check yardsales and just keep checking ebay, ive seen it on there a million times. Its a rare find, you will probably have to spend about 20 dollars if not more.

  • Okay
