tea for ten

Welcome! ❤ Here’s a little blog dedicated to an old show that was never released from the Disney vault after its end of syndication in 1998 held hostage in the Disney vault for 23 years until it was finally put on Disney+... And yet, it was one of the most awesome things ever. Adventures in Wonderland (1992) is to some a distant memory, or a fever dream, but to everyone out there who wants to reconnect with it now that they are grown, here is my offering to you. 

What you can expect to find here

1. Lots of screencaps, gifs, and scans from the episode books and magazines. If you would like to use scans for your own projects or pages, please cite the blog -- as it took our time, money, and skill to bring you rare media in good/clear condition. 

2. Fanart, fanfiction, fan podcasts, fan-anything that tickles my fancy. I reblog other people’s, and have made a lot of my own. There is mature content and shipping, but it is tagged, so if you don’t care for it, block “nfsw” and/or “hatter x hare”.

3. Information about the show’s production, including interviews with the lovely cast and crew, done by yours truly for the long-gone website. 

4. Info on the cast outside of AIW. What are they up to now? Find out!

Visit the master tags page if there is anything specific you’re looking for.

Other places to go from here 1.) TeaForTen, the youtube channel, to watch the episodes! For everyone who doesn’t have Disney+, anyway.

2.) Chuckleheads, the AIW facebook community. There are cast members here, so please be mindful and polite!

3.) Chit-Chat Snicky-Snack, my Hatter and Hare podcast. It’s not terrible, I promise. Check it outttt.

A sketch for The Passion of the Hot-Tub of a scene that particularly tickled me

An excerpt is under the cut.

lol so

to follow the other drawing is this, which I spent way too much time on

For a fic of mine called The Passion of the Hot-Tub, which never got any art. ;D

You can read the excerpt under the cut.

Hey there,

AIW has been on Disney+ since April of last year, so yes, I'm aware, but if you would like some quality gifs, check my "gif" or "gifset" tags because I have been using the Disney+ episodes ever since then. The problem is that Disney themselves do not have all HD quality episodes, and in the streaming/recording process, some additional quality is lost. So what you see of my gifs is as good as I could get it using my gif-making software. I apologize if it's still a bit below par for you. 

About the "lost episode". One of the cast members has explained this before: the OJ drama was in full swing before they could even edit the footage, so although there was footage and photos taken for that story, there isn't an "episode" that was pulled from the air or remained unaired. But hey, that's probably for the best -- the picture book that came out was disturbing enough.

There is a lot of room to come up with one's own custom headcanon, and some of it might be informed by whether you think Hatter and Hare are the same age. I don't - but it's okay to disagree. Anyway, it's true that they don't seem to know all the things you'd think they'd know about the other if they'd grown up together or went to the same school(s), so especially in the episode you're mentioning it sounded like they hadn't. It's hard to imagine that they'd be going to the same school and not acknowledge each other, since it seems like they have such powerful, instant chemistry and interest in the other.

In my own little headcanon, they have been friends in some capacity for about seven years. So, a long time. I imagine for Hatter is started when he was about 19/20, so he is the one in the pair who has spent a lot of the friendship still trying to figure out his own identity and direction in life. For Hare, it would have been when he was well into his 20's, but having not been very successful at finding his way. He seems like he knows himself quite well but is very enchanted by Hatter, energized by him, but also protective of him and wanting to help make things happen for him.

There's a fic I started about this, if you like fanfic, but no pressure to read it: https://archiveofourown.org/series/2182812
