Gingo (Canada)

Gingo is a Canadian English-language specialty channel based on the American network of the same name, which broadcasts animated programming aimed at children and teens. Until March 31, 2019, the channel had a late night counterpart, NightHouse, which targets young adults. The channel is owned by Corus Entertainment subsidiary Teletoon Canada, Inc., with the brands in use through a brand licensing agreement with NBCUniversal in the United States. The CRTC classifies the network as a discretionary service.

As with most Canadian networks, it is a dual-feed operation with separate Eastern and Pacific schedules and feeds. As of September 2015, it is available in 5 million households nationwide.

The network carries the majority of current-day programming aired by Gingo in the United States, along with some programs from sister network Teletoon to meet their Canadian content guidelines. In addition, some outside programming such as Angry Birds Toons, Turning Mecard and The Jungle Bunch is also carried on the network.

History
In September 2002, Astral Media was granted approval by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) to launch a localized version of Gingo. The channel was launched on September 5, 2003. In November 2005, a new post-6:00 p.m. advertising style was developed for older audiences, which used a much simpler logo and sleeker packaging with reduced gross-out tactics.

After Astral Media's stake in TELETOON Canada Inc was purchased by Corus Entertainment, several of Gingo's shows, primarily live action series, began airing on YTV.

Since its inception, Gingo aired several television series from Teletoon. From September 1, 2015 to Fall 2016, original programming from the American channel was moved over to its Canadian counterpart.

On April 1, 2019, following the relaunch of Action to a Canadian version of Adult Swim, the NightHouse block was removed from its schedule with most of NightHouse's programming moving to Adult Swim and Gingo Channel shifted to a full-time kids channel where it continues to this day.
