Tigger - in Popular Culture

In Popular Culture

• Tigger has appeared in the Mad episode "Pooh Grit" (a parody of True Grit), where Christopher Robin hires Marshall Pooh to capture Tigger after he bounced his father. He was voiced by Fred Tatasciore. Then in the next episode "Fast Hive" (a parody of Fast Five), Tigger was part of Pooh's team to get honey. He and Piglet fly out of the book and end up in The Very Hungry Caterpillar, where the caterpillar gives them some honey. In this episode, he was voiced by Kevin Shinick.

• In Randy Pausch's The Last Lecture: Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams, he asks whether one should live their life as a Tigger or as an Eeyore. Pausch indicated that he was a "Tigger".

• One skit during the Saturday Night Live Season 28 episode where the late Bernie Mac hosted involves a game show called "BrainBusters", which is a parody of Jeopardy! and other game shows. The last question that the contestant Steve Thinson (played by Jimmy Fallon) was asked was "This was Winnie the Pooh's feline friend." Steve buzzes in and says, "The answer is..." but before he can finish, a Technical Difficulties sign replaces the screen. Upon the return, we see that the host Lawrence (played by Bernie Mac) has Steve by the throat, while Steve is saying "I meant to say Tigger, with a T!"
