Trivia

During its original run on VARA, the series used the two standard alternate foreign theme songs for the Season 1 intro sequence. Season 1 used two versions of the first alternate international theme music performed by Bill van Dijk and Conny Vink, who performed the "Smurfy Way" theme song for seasons 2 and 3. Starting in 1995, when the series aired on RTL4, the original intros were replaced with the slightly-less-than-popular "Smurfingland" theme song, accompanied by the Season 8 intro, which has been used ever since. The reasons why the original theme songs were replaced are currently unkown.

Trivia

In Belgium, the show first aired in 1982 on RTBF and again in 1998 on Club RTL. In France, the show's first three seasons have aired on the channel Antenne 2 from 1983 to 1985. From 1986 to 1990, seasons 4-8 ran on the former and popular French channel La Cinq under the childrens' television block, "Youpi ! L'école est finie". Season 9 was later dubbed in 1995, airing on France 2, and again in 2000 on Teletoon.
The show also had several theme songs performed by the famous French singer, Dorothée. The Season 1 intro sequence was used up until season 3, with the first alternate international theme music being used for season 1, and the second theme being the original Smurf song from season 2. (In Belgium, the theme was done by a male singer instead.) For seasons 4 to 7, the "Smurfy Way" theme song is used, accompanying portions of the intro sequences from seasons 4 and 5. Afterwards, seasons 8 and 9 used their original intro sequences.
- For the "Johan and Peewit" episodes, two different theme songs are used, accompanied by the Season 2 intro sequence.
- 1988 re-broadcasts of seasons 1 and 2 use a completely different theme song sung by Marie Dauphin.
- 1995 broadcasts of season 9 use the Season 8 intro sequence, accompanied by a remix of the original Smurf song from a French album.

Trivia

The German version had two dubs. The original was made only for the first two seasons on ZDF in 1983. This dub was widely forgotten (and currently extinct), after the more recent and well-known dub was made and first aired on Tele 5 in 1988. Aside from sharing Gargamel's voice actor, the second dub also featured a new cast and kept Clumsy's English name intact. (The ZDF dub originally named him "Trotteli" from the comic books.)
The show's intro sequnce for the 1st dub used two versions of the first alternate international theme music; season 1 used a spoken narration and season 2 used a sung version. The 2nd dub also used a spoken narration, accompanying the "Smurfy Way" theme song, which was discontinued after season 6. The season 7 intro, kept intact on TV airings, was also used for season 8.
Also for the second dub, a shortened version of "The Smurfy Way" theme song with English lyrics was used for the closing credits from seasons 1 to 6.
In Germany, the show has aired on the channels ZDF, Tele 5, Junior, ProSieben, Super RTL, the Disney Channel, and Boomerang.
In the German version of "The Dark Ness Monster", the goof noticed when Brainy apologizes to Clumsy, has the aforementioned character's speech consisting of whimpers while his mouth is closed. Fortunately, in the following close-up shot of Clumsy, Brainy starts talking again, so German viewers can understand what he wants.
The German actor who voices Hefty in the ZDF dub is coincidentally named after the title character of the 2007 film, Fred Claus.

Greek

In Greece, the show is called "Τα Στρουμφάκια" (Ta Stroumfakia).

Trivia

The show was dubbed in Greek three times. The first was made in the 1980s and broadcasted on ERT, but the masters for the original dub were lost and only 45 episodes are known to have been saved. The second dub was mainly used for VHS releases, while the more recent dub first aired on the Greek channel STAR and exists currently on DVD releases.
The Greek intro sequence has a female narration on all three dubs.
For the 1st dub on ERT, the "Smurfy Way" theme was originally sung, but for the 2nd dub on VHS, the intro consists of a spoken narration. This theme was not used at all for the 3rd and current dub.
This is one of the very few foreign versions in which Azrael has actual speaking lines.

Hebrew

In Hebrew, the series is called "הדרדסים" ("Dardasim").

Trivia

The show's intro sequences are done by a female narrator. Throughout the show's run, the Season 1 intro sequence also had three different title logo variants.

Trivia

The series was originally dubbed in Polish from 1987 to 1999 on TVP. Seasons 1-3, 5, and (partially) 6-8 were done first, while seasons 4 and 9 (and the rest of season 7) were later done in the 90s. On May 2005, TVP re-broadcasted seasons 5, 6, 7, and 9, but at the time, a majority of the original master tapes for the first four seasons were either lost or damaged. So, in 2006, seasons 1-4 were re-dubbed by the studio "Telewizja Polska - Agencja Filmowa" with new voices for some characters (but with the same recording of the original Polish theme), though some episodes kept their original dub intact. These episodes aired until 2009. Later, several episodes that have not received a Polish version yet were later dubbed for the first time in October 2010. On January 2014, the series moved to a new channel TVP ABC.
The first alternate international theme was used for season 1, while the "Smurfy Way" theme was used from seasons 2 to 6. Afterwards, seasons 7-9 used their original intros. The original Polish "Smurfy Way" theme was later remastered for seasons 1-7, starting in 2006.

Portuguese

In Portuguese-speaking countries, the series is known as "Os Smurfs".
