Teletoon

Teletoon is a Canadian cable network launched in October 1997. The network is devoted to cartoons designed for children and teenagers. The network aired many of the signature Hanna-Barbera cartoons, including most of the Scooby-Doo series of cartoons.
The network also spawned a sister network, Teletoon Retro, launched in October 2007, which was Teletoon's 10th anniversary. That network devoted to older cartoons, many of them from the 20th century. Some of the Hanna-Barbera cartoon series aired on Teletoon Retro were never previously aired on Teletoon. Because the cartoons appealed to an older audience when Teletoon Retro was on the air, commercials designed for adults were broadcast. After only eight years, Teletoon Retro went off the air 1 September 2015 after a Canadian version of Cartoon Network acquired the CRTC (Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission) license and a portion of its channel.
At the time of Teletoon Retro's demise, The Flintstones, The Jetsons and older incarnations of Scooby-Doo - all of which were cult classics - were the only Hanna-Barbera classics to have been added back to Teletoon's lineup, but only airing in the late night hours. Richie Rich was added to Teletoon's lineup sometime in 2018, but as of August 2020, the oldest Hanna-Barbera program on Teletoon's schedule was What's New Scooby-Doo? which is from as early as 2002.
In February 2023, Teletoon was discontinued and replaced by Cartoon Network Canada which was initially in Teletoon Retro's former channel, and a Canadian version of Boomerang launched in Cartoon Network Canada's former slot. However, except for one cartoon series (not produced by Hanna-Barbera), Boomerang Canada airs programming from the 2010s and 2020s.

==Trivia==
* Teletoon Retro had apparently aired all of the Scooby-Doo series of cartoons except for the segments aired during The Richie Rich/Scooby-Doo Show and The Scooby & Scrappy-Doo/Puppy Hour, many of which were only seven minutes in length apiece and did not feature Daphne Blake, Fred Jones and Velma Dinkley. All of the Scooby-Doo series that aired on Teletoon and Teletoon Retro did feature Daphne, at least.
*Both the original Teletoon and Teletoon Retro have aired reruns of cartoon series produced by DiC Enterprises, Nelvana, and Ruby-Spears Productions, in addition to other production companies.
*It is rumored that some of the series aired on Teletoon Retro were taken from ASN (Atlantic Satellite Network) broadcasts from the 1980s, which were believed to have been recorded from original network airings, which were most likely bootlegs. Some other series may have been taken from DVD sets. Snorks, The Gary Coleman Show, The Little Rascals, Drak Pack and Monchhichis were aired on ASN, but never on Teletoon nor Teletoon Retro.
