Station X is an animated/live-action series currently airing on Teletoon. The show revolves around six young media-savvy people, in their late teens to early twenties, all living in a loft in Montreal, a Canadian city. What is unique about this series is that it combines original animation and film clips.

Most clips are music videos, although other clips, such as pieces of movies or televions shows, are also shown. Notable sources include The Kids in the Hall, and many episodes contain a clip from Angry Kid.

The episodes had minimal plots. In each episode one character had a dilemma or issue, and they would discuss it with each of the other characters. The characters would usually introduce a clip to illustrate their point.

Another unique feature of Station X is that there the screen was never filled. For each camera angle the image had a different shape and size with an edge looked rough, like torn paper. Sometimes two different angles of the same scene where shown at the same time. Even the film clips didn't fill the screen. Widescreen movie clips and music videos where shown letter boxed, while 4:3 video was shown smaller with blank space around all four sides. The Madness episode the blank space was white instead of black.
