I'd go as far as to say J2S is one of the greatest leaf cartoons of all time. (ReBoot is also amazing, and is the kind of show Gameoverse wishes it could be.)

Eek the Cat was really good. Even though it could be considered both a Canadian and American cartoon

I'm probably the only one who actually tried to sit through that show, all anyone saw was sexy little goth girls and the intro is cool. But the show itself was pretty mediocre. You could take any episode and literally switch out the characters with sticks and it would have been the exact same show that's how bad the writing was it was a basic kids . show. But the character designer went hard

The leaf economy is so bad that they can't even make low-effort Flash/Toon Boom cartoons anymore.
-Nelvana is functionally dead
-Wildbrain is doing nothing
-YTV is a shell of its former self
-Teletoon is a rebranded CN rerun channel
-Family Channel died last October
-No indie animation scene at all
They still do some outsource work for American companies, but even that's drying up. I think small horse show was the last big one.

Nick Canada, Disney Jr Canada, Disney XD Canada and French-Canadian Disney Channel all shut down on September 1, 2025.
Family Channel, Family Jr, Telemagino and WildBrain TV all shut down on October 23 of that year.

I mean, they *tried* to reboot it recently, but I've heard nothing since.
Also, just because something's old, doesn't mean we can't celebrate it (just the opposite).

Some, most?, where not that old. Nick for example wasn't even Canada that long. Why did they all pull out?
>Family Channel, Family Jr, Telemagino and WildBrain TV all shut down on October 23 of that year.
I only heard of Family Channel, not the other ones.
I haven't watched cable in over 10 years, should I feel sad?
I do feel sorry for kids these days that didnt grow up with YTV/Teletoon/Family Channel when they were in their prime. But then again with the internet and smartphones, I doubt kids even watch tv anymore in the traditional way. I feel like Canada doesnt have a really good kids network anymore. And if they do, its shit.
Like years ago I glanced at YTV and it was just Spongebob and iCarly 24/7.
Like, everything needs to be the cheapest possible, rerun the slop thats everywhere else. I'm tried of it. No one cares, just shut it down if it makes no profit.

They also tried to reboot it in 2003, and it didnt work. I'm so sick of reboots, every single one sucks. Let the past stay in the past.

>>154029909
And Gen X. Possibly late Baby Boomers too, if you were still watching cartoons in the 80s in your teens and 20s.
>>
>>154031583
*and then they just shut it down.
Like, rather than improving content, they just kill the network. But maybe it was always going to be this way. My mom dropped cable after 40 years. Fuck Rogers. Now she steams and watches Youtube.

>I only heard of Family Channel, not the other ones.
They were basically off-branded versions of the Disney Channel offshoots. They were rebranded after Corus Entertainment got the exclusive license for Disney content in Canada and made their own Disney channels. Then the existing Canadian Disney channels ended up being rebranded under the Family umbrella.

>Why did they all pull out?
So there's two separate groups here. The Canadian Nick and Disney channels were all owned by Corus Entertainment. The Family Channel and its offshoots were all owned by DHX a.k.a. WildBrain. From what I understand, both of them shut all these channels down for similar reasons.

Obviously, kids moving from linear TV to streaming services and social media played a huge part in their closure, but the two groups had additional reasons.
Corus obviously has mounting debt due to their inability to transition into the modern entertainment age, and ended up having to cut a bunch of things to try and keep themselves afloat, and their vestigial channels were just a victim of that.
As for WildBrain, they ended up being unable to renew their carriage agreement with Bell and Rogers, which would've cut massively into the little viewerbase they had left. With that, WildBrain saw their channels as no longer being commercially viable and decided to pull the plug on them.

>Like years ago I glanced at YTV and it was just Spongebob and iCarly 24/7.
Now they don't even air that anymore. Not only did they shut down Nick Canada, but they also removed all the Nick programming from YTV and Treehouse altogether. Want to watch Spongebob on Canadian linear TV in 2026? Well, you're SOL, off to Paramount+ you go. Now YTV is just stuck with CN reruns and the dregs from their Canadian content library.
>>
>>154031629
>sick of reboots
That's understandable. I think there should be less reboots and more revivals, like how X-men '97 picks up where the original left off. Don't try to retell an old story... just continue it. Or do a time-skip. It could just be the next generation of the characters you already know. It would be really great for those series that left off with a Bad End.
>>
>>154031906
Thanks for the info drop anon. I haven't kept up since I stopped with cable years ago.
>Corus obviously has mounting debt due to their inability to transition into the modern entertainment age, and ended up having to cut a bunch of things to try and keep themselves afloat, and their vestigial channels were just a victim of that.
Corus has always been a terrible company. They also own/owned a few radio stations I used to like and basically ruined them. Same with TV. Sometimes it feels like they are a monopoly in Ontario, you can't escape them on tv or radio. And if Canada loves one thing, its a monopoly.
>Not only did they shut down Nick Canada, but they also removed all the Nick programming from YTV and Treehouse altogether.
Why? For years, YTV carried Nick programs. Teletoon did Cartoon Network. Family Channel did Disney. Yes, there was some cross pollination where these showed aired on the other two networks, but this was how I remember it being.
It always pissed me off how we were right next door to USA, and Nick didn't make a Canadian Nick back when it would have mattered, like in the 1990s. But they made Nick channels everywhere else in the world. Only way in Canada to get Nick was through a grey market (illegal) satellite dish. Byt the time Nick came to Canada, it was too late. Same story with Cartoon Network. I could get fresh downloads of AT/RS from /co/ directly after they aired, why the fuck would I wait months or years for Cartoon Network Canada to catch up? Also remember, these were premium channels here only sold it packs. I'd have to get the highest teir with a bunch of other crap I wouldn't want.
>Spongebob on Canadian linear TV in 2026? Well, you're SOL, off to Paramount+ you go.
Fug that.
>Now YTV is just stuck with CN reruns and the dregs from their Canadian content library.
Bring back all the good 80s/90s Cancon content YTV used to have.
No, these networks would rather run Johnny Test several times a day to meet their cancon quota.
