Sinclair To Launch 'KidsClick' Multiplatform Programming Block For Children

"The Smurfs introduces the 3 – 6-year-old television audience to a wide array of pro-social lessons. The series uses the narrative/educational device of a wise and patient elder who guides younger generations as they learn to deal with the complexities of interpersonal relations and with their own, sometimes quite confusing, feelings. Smurfs are tiny, blue creatures who inhabit a very magical forest, along with various wizards, imps, goblins, kings, knights, knaves … and others too numerous to mention. Each Smurf represents a particular character trait, usually encapsulated in his or her name: Brainy, Clumsy, Handy, Grouchy, Greedy, Jokey, Pushover, Vanity, Smurfette – a narrative device that helps young viewers understand some very abstract feelings and ideas. As the Smurfs confront the day-to-day events of Smurf community life, they encounter unexpected obstacles, unexpected issues, and unexpected feelings that may threaten their plans, their community, or their own self-image. We watch as Papa Smurf, the village elder, helps the younger ones figure out who they are and how they should behave, and strives to teach them the power of love and caring. Various individual episodes explore such issues as kindness, greed and sharing, fighting, perseverance, responsibility, humility, teasing, carelessness, expressing feelings, self-confidence, fears, perspective-taking, and so on… in other words, many of the same issues that any 3 – 6-year-old might encounter in the play-yard. But through all of the episodes, the overriding theme is one of love and caring. Although the Smurfs are very different from one another, and frequently seem to act at cross-proposes, Papa Smurf’s constant message is that if they love, care for, and respect one another, their community will function like a well-oiled … Smurfdom."
Who knew that Smurfs was a preschool show?
 
Does anybody know where I can find a "[Show #1] Returns Tomorrow Morning/[Show #2] Coming Up Next" template for Adobe Premiere?

Barbie, huh? I didn't even know there was a Saturday morning cartoon.
 
Could've sworn Barbie was with StarzEncore Family - maybe they lost the rights to that, too...

Nevertheless, I think KidsClick has more than enough shows to start their own channel now.
 
If Rocket Monkeys, Super 4, and/or Jungle Book aren't going to be on weekends, time to press F. Nice additions here too.

still waiting for Monster Buster Club
 
Just to recap the weekday lineup change:
  • Barbie Dreamtopia (show has no fantasy violence) replaces Rocket Monkeys
  • Monster High: Adventures of the Ghoul Squad replaces Super 4
  • Angry Birds Toons returns to the weekday lineup (since July 3, 2017) causing Oggy and the Cockroaches to move to The Jungle Book's time slot and replace it.
  • Transformers: Cybertron replaces Tranformers: Energon
There has to be at least a weekend lineup change. (I hope the new weekend lineup will include Kirby: Right Back at Ya! if so...)
 
I was kinda expecting Rocket Monkeys to be on weekends. On a side note, Ghoul Squad only has five half-hours...

I imagine they're also going to air a split version of the DTV, so Monster High will have a whopping seven half-hours ... Watch it stay on the block longer than Mecard did. Team Hot Wheels certainly did.
 
Yup, an F for Mecard, more Transformers series, and Saturday/Sunday schedules. You were right. Now tell me Monster Buster Club or Made in Abyss will be there eventually

Who knows? it might return once the 24/7 service gets off the ground in the winter.

Again, that should be discussed in the fantasy schedule thread KidsClick Fantasy Schedule

Also, Pokemon airs on Disney XD, TMNT 2003 is owned by Nickelodeon, and TF P airs on Discovery Family

There shouldn't be no reason not to, especially since that would counter the block's marketing to begin with.

Happy Digimon day!
And Colorado 150 day!
Happy 15th anniversary to Secret Mountain Fort Awesome!

It should've ran for as many seasons and episodes as its post-predecessor Uncle Grandpa did.
I wish Imgur wasn't allowed on this forum until the time is right for a return since it's been unavailable in the UK since last September, so I don't see why people use links from the site for here when it's no longer available in the UK and I'm really angry that their parent company made this stupid decision.
Happy 45th anniversary, MTV.
MeTV Toons is a great channel when it comes to classic cartoons, but we know it can be way better. The Duck4Real (me!) elaborates on this in his latest YouTube vlog. Watch it!
