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 unknown.
 * The Dutch version of the "Smurfingland" theme song was also used in the Dutch variant of the infamous UNICEF Smurfs PSA, which the song was synced to the few seconds of the clip of season 1 opening intro of the show before the new animation in which the Smurf Village is annihilated by bombs dropped from planes. The PSA was made in part of UNICEF Belgium’s campaign to raise about $150,000 for the rehabilitation of former child soldiers in Burundi and the Democratic Republic of the Congo, which both is a former Belgium colony in Africa, and with the approval of the family of the Smurfs' late creator Peyo, the PSA was shown on the Belgium television after the 9pm timeslot to avoid children seeing it.
