Teletoon is a Canadian English-language Category A specialty channel owned by Corus Entertainment that broadcasts animated programming. Its name is a portmanteau of "television" and "cartoon".
The channel primarily airs various animated series, including both original and imported content. Its daytime programming is aimed at children and younger teenagers, while nighttime shows are targeted at older teenagers and adults.
Teletoon operates two timeshift feeds running on Eastern and Pacific schedules. Along with Télétoon, it is available in over 7.3 million Canadian households as of November 2013.[1]
History
It was licensed in 1996 by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC)[2][3] after a related application for a channel to be called "Fun TV" had been denied.[4] The channel was launched on October 17, 1997,[5] with the first episode of Caillou.[6] At the time, it was known as The Animation Station before later adding, and then switching to, its current slogan: It's Unreal![7]
When Teletoon was launched in 1997, it showed more mature fare as the day progressed, with a strong commitment to air diverse and international programming, and the ability to air a great majority of material uncut. A typical weekday broadcast day ran preschool (little kids) content from 4am EST to 3pm EST,[8] then Kids (school-aged) content from 3pm-7pm,[8] then "Family" content from 7pm-9:30pm,[8] then "Adult" content from 9:30pm-4am.[8] More adult cartoons such as Duckman and various anime programs were aired after midnight.[9]
In 1999, Teletoon started airing bumpers with its first mascot, Teletina.[10][11] These bumpers were made by Spin Productions in Toronto. Several more bumpers using CGI animation made by Guru Studio[12] subsequently premiered on the channel. An updated look for the channel, no longer featuring the original logo, was later created[13] for a partial rebranding in 2005.[14]
The older bumpers were removed in 2007 as part of an on-air rebranding. Said rebrand took place on February 5, 2007; Teletoon's on-air appearance and its website were dramatically changed, the website for The Detour (then the name of its late night block) was moved to teletoon.com, and the aesthetic appearance of both the normal block and The Detour changed.
Four years later, on September 5, 2011, Teletoon's on-air branding changed again to reflect the 50th anniversary of one of its owners, Astral Media, and to reflect the transition to digital television.[15] Since then, Teletoon has begun airing a number of live-action programs in the daytime, including original series such as My Babysitter's a Vampire and Mudpit, as well as acquired programming and movies. This wasn't the first time the channel has aired live-action programming; Teletoon had aired the live-action Fireball XL-5 during the 1997–98 season. Occasionally, the channel also airs live-action movies related to cartoons and comic books, such as Space Jam, Sin City, and Batman.
After Astral Media's stake in TELETOON Canada Inc was purchased by Corus Entertainment, several of Teletoon's original and acquired shows, primarily live-action series, began airing on YTV. In turn, Teletoon began airing anime series that aired on YTV, including Yu-Gi-Oh!, beginning with Yu-Gi-Oh! Zexal II, and Pokémon, beginning with XY and reruns of Pokémon: Advanced.[16][17][18] The debut of Zexal, in particular, marks the first time an acquired anime series aired on the channel since the debut of MegaMan NT Warrior back in 2003.
Since its inception, Teletoon was best known for airing television series from Cartoon Network, which itself airs several Canadian animated series (including those from Teletoon's sister channel, YTV). However, on September 1, 2015, original programming from the American channel moved over to its Canadian counterpart.[19] Around the same time, several series from Teletoon Retro, which closed down on the same date, began airing on Teletoon.[20]
Since then, Teletoon now airs television series from Cartoon Network's sister channel, Boomerang.
Ownership
The channel was originally owned by a consortium made up of various other Canadian specialty services and producers: Family Channel acting as managing partner at 53.3% (Western International Communications and The Movie Network (by then a division of Astral Media), YTV at 26.7% (Shaw Communications), and Cinar and Nelvana with 10% each.[21]
Corus Entertainment was spun off from Shaw Communications (who originally owned a stake in Teletoon through YTV)[citation needed] in 1999. In 2000, Corus began to slowly buy out its partners in the service. Western International Communications sold its stake in the service, along with Family, to Corus in 2000, but it had to sell WIC's stakes in Teletoon and Family to Astral Media the next year. Corus bought out Nelvana in 2000 and inherited its stake. Cinar was sold in 2004 to an investment consortium composed of Michael Hirsh, Toper Taylor, and Birch Hill Capital Partners, who renamed the company Cookie Jar; Cookie Jar sold its 20% stake in the service to Corus and Astral in 2006, making it a 50-50 joint venture between the two companies.
On March 4, 2013, Corus Entertainment announced that they would buy Astral's stake in Teletoon and take full ownership of the channel. The purchase was in relation to Bell Media's takeover of Astral (which had earlier been rejected by the CRTC in October 2012, but was restructured to allow the sale of certain Astral Media properties in order to allow the purchase to clear regulatory hurdles).[22] Corus's purchase was cleared by the Competition Bureau two weeks later on March 18;[23] on December 20, 2013, the CRTC approved Corus's full ownership of Teletoon[24] and ownership was transferred on January 1, 2014.[25] The channel continues to be owned by Teletoon Canada, now wholly owned by Corus Entertainment under its Corus Kids division.[26][27]
Programming
Teletoon predominantly airs animated television series and movies. Its license originally required that 90% of all programs on the channel be animated.[28] Its French-language counterpart contains a different schedule of programs, some being French-dubbed versions of shows such as South Park.
Occasionally, television pilots that have not to date been developed as full series are shown, such as Nemesis[29] and Bob the Slob[30] (both in 2015). Teletoon also airs select programs from Nickelodeon such as ALVINNN! and the Chipmunks, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Power Rangers.
Original series
This is a list of programs broadcast by Cartoon Network Canada.[31] Télétoon has a different schedule than the English version, although many of the same programs are aired on both channels. For television programs broadcast during their respective nighttime blocks, see Teletoon at Night and Télétoon la nuit. Premiere airdates are provided in parentheses where available.

Programming blocks
- Original blocks – Initially, Teletoon's programming was divided into dayparted blocks, each featuring a different style of animation. Each blocks were represented as planets:[128] Morning Planet for Preschoolers (claymation animation; 5:00 a.m. -3:00 p.m. EST), Afternoon Planet for Kids (2D cel animation; 3:00 p.m.- 6:00 p.m.), Evening Planet for Family (collage animation; 6:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m. EST) and Night Planet for Adult (papier-mâché animation; 9:00 p.m. - 5:00 a.m. EST). The bumpers were made by Cuppa Coffee Studios. This branding would be discontinued in August 1998.[129]
- Teletoon Retro – Teletoon Retro was the branding and block for classic animated programming. It was later spun into a digital channel, which also featured several live-action series. The channel launched on October 1, 2007, and closed on September 1, 2015.
- Can't Miss Thursdays – A block for first-run programming premieres that aired on Thursday nights. The block later featured live-action, hosted segments.[130]
- Superfan Fridays – A block showcasing comic book-related and action-oriented animated series.[75]
