Season Five (The Jumping Ground)

Season Five of The Jumping Ground began on August 29, 2001. It contained fourteen episodes where the first half aired during the fall and the second half airing near spring. It finished on March 20, 2002. The third episode was also postponed three weeks than planned because of the 9/11 attacks.
The season is the last season to air the kids on their trip to school until it was replaced with a country-style opening with new animation in Season Six. The season features the premier of two new characters, Jimmy Swanson and Mimey. The season also features the "permanent" death of Rob Broflovski and the preparation of Melvin Sneedly becoming a major character.
This was the final season of the show to be broadcast on Showtime, which cancelled the series after five seasons. The show was eventually picked up by Cartoon Network and has continued to air on that channel ever since.
