Cartoon Network[2] is a children's pay television channel in CIS & Southeast Europe which was launched on 1 October 2009, replacing the pan-European feed of Cartoon Network. Cartoon Network is available in Russian, Bulgarian, English, Serbian, Croatian, and Slovene.

History

Block

From April 14, 1996 to April 6, 1997, the Russian channel TV-6 has broadcast the Cartoon Network block with the channel's bumpers voiced into Russian, as well as two multi—part projects - the animated series The Jetsons and the classic Tom and Jerry short cartoons.[3]

Channel

On November 1, 1999, the channel Cartoon Network Europe officially began broadcasting on the territory of Russia and in the CIS and Baltic countries on the platform of the satellite operator NTV-Plus and in other cable networks, broadcasting from the Sirius satellite 2[4][5][6] (partially duplicated).[7][8] Broadcasting was from 8:00 to 00:00 Moscow time, and at night the TV channel "TCM Europe" was broadcast. The distributor of the channel in the CIS and the Baltic States was "Chello Zone".[9][10][11]

On April 1, 2005, Cartoon Network Europe received a full-fledged Russian soundtrack.[12][13] 

In mid-May 2006, a rebranding was carried out, which included an updated version of the logo and a new design. Later, the "Cartoon Network Cinema" block appeared.

In 2008, a representative office of Turner Broadcasting System Russia opened in Moscow, which began distributing the channel.[14] Later, the channel was legally renamed "Cartoon Network Pan-European".

On October 1, 2009, its own version of the TV channel appeared — Cartoon Network Russia and Southeastern Europe (CN RSEE), broadcasting in the CIS, Baltic States and Southeastern Europe.[15] There is also a new block "Cartoon Toon Toon". During the break, advertising for the CIS countries and Bulgaria is different.

On November 26, 2010, a new corporate identity was introduced, as well as a new design.[16] In the same year, a website was launched - cartoonnetwork.ru and cartoonnetwork.bg, the site is controlled and maintained in London.[17][18]

Since March 2011, the channel has switched to round-the-clock broadcasting,[19] the broadcast of "TCM Europe" on the frequency of "Cartoon Network RSEE" has stopped.[20]

In 2014 , Munich took over the programming and management of the TV channel,[21][22] It was previously managed in London. In the same year, the "Marathon Mix" block appeared.

At the end of 2015, it became known that the distributor of the channel in Russia and the CIS would be Media Alliance, a subsidiary of the state media holding National Media Group and Discovery Inc.[23][24][25] The transaction was completed in May 2016.[26] The company managed the Russian legal entity of the channel — Turner Children's Programs LLC, which was headed by Discovery representative Grigory Lavrov, who was also the general director of Media Alliance.[27]

Since November 18, 2020, the broadcasting center is now located in Prague, but the editorial office has remained in Munich[28]

On 6 November 2021, the channel feed started with dubbing in Serbian, Croatian and Slovene.

On 9 March 2022, the channel closed in Russia, along with Boomerang and Discovery channels, with these closures being a response by WarnerMedia and Discovery Inc. on the actions of the invasion of Ukraine.[29] It continues broadcasting in the CIS countries.

From August 1, 2022, some new cartoon series began to be released without Russian dubbing.[30][31][32]
