| Chronology | |
Team Smurf is an American traditionally-animated television series based off the computer-animated feature Smurfs: The Lost Village and the original Smurfs comics by Peyo, as well as the 1980s animated series produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions. This series follows the exciting and thrilling adventures of Smurfette and her best friends Brainy, Clumsy, and Hefty Smurf.
Premise[]
The series follows Smurfette, Brainy, Clumsy and Hefty in their crazy misadventures (such as facing and battling against Gargamel, who is planning to turn the Smurfs into gold or more likely, if not, eat the Smurfs). Other episodes focus on finding treasures that are uncovered from previous years of the Smurf life or preventing someone from conquering Smurf Village and turning it into a museum exhibit or a grand canyon. Also, the show breaks the fourth wall with characters often talking to the audience and the narrator.

Trivia[]
- Unlike Smurfs: The Lost Village, this show doesn't use any real life pop songs and instead use songs from The Smurfs All-Star Show and The Smurfs: Best of Friends albums to give the series a classic feel. This was likely done in order to avoid copyright issues.
- Most of the series' voice cast consists of a celebrity-based voice cast, most of them reprising their roles from the film.
- Jim Cummings reprised his role as Gargamel from the SNL TV Funhouse skit paroding both The Smurfs and The Anne Nicole Show combined altogether as one skit: The Smurfette Show.
- Jeff Bennett returns to play his role as the British-accented Narrator from the Earthworm Jim cartoon series and Dave the Barbarian.
