An episode guide for the first two seasons of "The Lion King's Timon and Pumbaa". The episodes are listed in the order that they were first run, reflecting no official order that Disney might have of them.
During the first season, "Timon and Pumbaa" shorts came in three categories:
The four "Rafiki Fables" starred Rafiki, usually teaching someone in the jungle an important lesson. The four shorts of "The Laughing Hyenas" featured the trio's futile attempts at trying to get some food. The rest of the first season shorts featured Timon and Pumbaa
However, the categories were dropped during the second season, and so no short ever had the "Rafiki Fables" or "The Laughing Hyenas" labeling. But the second season did feature two shorts starring "Zazu".
Thank you, Gael McGear Sweeney. Your own episode guide was a big help in putting this guide together.
