[edit] Question about adult content on Teletoon?
This has been on the main article for some time, but can anyone back up the story about Teletoon scaling back adult programming due to a programming mishap in preschool hours? I've assumed that it was accurate since it hasn't been disputed yet, but I'd really appreciate seeing some evidence of this.

- I wouldn't know, but what I do remember, was when how cross some of my friend's parents were, channel surfing over the the Kagero + StoneGiant rape scene, during Teletoon's showing of Ninja scroll. Awfully brutal for their first year, in the process of eventually becoming a "kid friendly" network. It's based on a bit of hearsay,
- (friends told me how cross their parents were after the incident, and how their parents knew other parents who called into the network to complain to no end. They did infact , show Ninja scroll within the first couple of weeks of Rogers' MeTV line up)
-
- but I can't remember of there being any incident of 'Adult rated' movies being shown before, or after 'watershed' like the article states. Most anime movies and their repeats started showing much later after that incident though. I have bags under my eyes from trying to record them all :(

- There's that vintage article, (found in googles cache) :::http://72.14.207.104/search?q=cache:_A_1my0e5i8J:www.canoe.ca/TelevisionShowsT/teletoon.html+canoe+teletoon&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=1
- Again, nothing beyond hearsay :/. Not as if though the company were willing to go out of their way to incriminate themselves either ;p. The Canoe article reads that in regards to anime they "didnt really know what they were doing". I don't think its worth exagerrating though.

- Maybe it was one of their misplaced "Washershed" TV bumpers featuring a plasticine sketch scene of a john, with an "alien" street walker, who's tongue came in the shape of an alluring pink boot ;p (lol). Who knows. Wait and see

There used to be an adult cartoon short called Lolita or Lolita Lolita on Teletoon after 11 pm which contained cartoon nudity. It was played early in the morning, causing some controversy after a woman saw it when she was babysitting a toddler.
[edit] New logo
I just got a TV grab of the new logo of Teletoon. Should it be replaced with the old one? In my opinion, I think it should, but I just want to see what your opinions are. --XuperUber 16:33, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
- Looks very cheesy... literally. :) Both the old logo and this new one should be on the page. --FlyingPenguins 17:45, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Re: Old Shows
heya,
Blazing Dragons had a weird syndication 2-3(ish)(?) AM repeat run at morning time slot when the network originally aired.
I remember it, because I hated that show.
They also showed Wings of honnemaise/Dragon ball Z/ Macross Plus OVA/Patlabor (Movies 1 & 2) but I wasnt sure if we were listing movies or not.
If we are listing movies we should also include Ninja Scroll.69.156.205.22 06:29, 8 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Past programs
Hey, I'm just a random person who happened to drop by and decided to add some programs to the list of former Teletoon programs. I still remember how excited I was the first day it aired, and how there was a countdown timer on the channel before any real programming occurred, and how I had to go to school... I rushed to the channel when I arrived back; Santo Bugito was on at 3 PM or so. There's been a lot of changes with the channel from then until now. But I have a good handle on many of its early programming, and I've added quite a bit to the list, if you don't mind.
- Animania
- Blaster's Universe
- Dog City
- Mega Babies
- Pippi Longstocking
- Santo Bugito
- Tales from the Cryptkeeper
- The Addams Family
- The Magic School Bus
- The Tick
- Wacky Races
- X-Men
More shows that come off the top of my head that I will add:
- Archie's Weird Mysteries
- Cow and Chicken
- I Am Weasel
- Rescue Heroes
- Savage Dragon
- Sonic Underground
- The Sylvester & Tweety Mysteries
There will be even more to come shortly.
EDIT: Even though Stickin' Around is listed as once showing on the English Teletoon, this is not true. From what I've seen, the only English-speaking Canadian channel that has ever showed it is YTV. On the program's page, it is noted as once being on the French Teletoon. I can't confirm if this is true, since I've never had access to that channel, but I believe that it is. So I'll go ahead and delete Stickin' Around from the list of past programs for Teletoon (English), but just to be safe, I won't touch the French page.
EDIT 2: Added plenty more to "Past programs"; deleting Clone High, Mission Hill, Star Wars: The Clone Wars, The Oblongs, and Venture Brothers from "Programs currently airing on The Detour" and adding them to "Past programs," in accordance to Teletoon's show list on its Web site.

[edit] Question about Baby Teletoon
Yeah. I saw that starting September 9th, Baby Teletoon will air. But I haven't seen any website or commercial evidence of it existing so can somebody delete this where di the guy who got this tell me where it came from. If nobody replies, I'll have to delete the section myself.
[edit] Duckman?
I don't believe Duckman would be in this slot. I mean...its not a show for babies. Plus, concerning Baby Teletoon...I don't think Corus would want to have this channel compete with Treehouse TV, which is pretty much all kids programming all the time. Tenspeeder 08:31, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
you have no idea what duckman was do you... lmao
- I remember Duckman. It was that show with ducks as main characters which was intended for adult viewers
[edit] Animania
This article lists Animania as one of the shows on Teletoon. However, Animania is about an event in Sydney. Is the article perhaps referring to Animaniacs, or to a TV show which should be at an article such as Animania (TV show) or Animania (cartoon)? Confusing Manifestation 05:00, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
