Travis Oates plays the voice of Piglet. He's great!

Yeah, Travis Oates provided Piglet's voice for Kingdom Hearts II and some of Pooh's Heffalump Halloween Movie according to Wikipedia. It says that he will indeed be back for this.

According to TV.com (http://www.tv.com/my-friends-tigger-and-pooh/show/67005/summary.html) Travis Oates is doing the voice of Piglet.

I also just watched an episode with him in it...He's no John Fielder (R.I.P :( )
but he isn't that bad,I've never played Kingdom Hearts but to me he sounds a bit like Piglet with a slightly deeper voice with a bit of a canadian accent.

He does have the voice sound f/x down pat through. (Grunting,Yelling,He could try to make his voice a tiny (no pun intended) bit higher on the "Oh D-d-d-Dear")

Just my 2 cents

I hate to be an opinionated jerk, but the new voice of Piglet is awful! I realize Piglet was a very distinctive voice that would be very difficult to replace, but man... awful!

They would be better off with a new, different voice that at least sounds cute. This new voice just sounds like a really whiny 30-year-old man.

Wow, I can't believe I care this much about my daughter's favorite show.

Awful!

P.S. Tigger is awesome! He's hilarious and fun to listen to. He makes up for that AWFUL PIGLET!

True, but I guess we're all used to hearing John Fiedler doing the voice that a new one sounds too different. Much like when Mel Blanc died and new actors voice the Looney Tunes, they sounded very different for a long time, and when Jim Henson died, his Muppets sounded very different and still do to this day.

I dunno. I think people have taken to Jim Cummings fairly well as both Pooh and Tigger. Remember, Tigger used to be voiced by Paul Winchell. Winchell passed away a couple years ago, but he actually quit the role of Tigger well before he passed away, and it passed on to Cummings, who was already doing Pooh at the time (but wasn't the original voice of Pooh either.) But then again, Cummings is awesome.

Whereas, Oates, I think some may have a fair point that he isn't as good as Piglet, but I'm slowly getting used to him.
