First reported by Nickandmore!, YTV currently airs Nickelodeon series such as SpongeBob SquarePants and The Loud House on weekdays and Kamp Koral: SpongeBob's Under Years, The Patrick Star Show and Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles on the weekends, however, starting Monday, September 1, Nickelodeon programs will be leaving the channel's weekday schedules.
Instead, YTV will be replacing the usual SpongeBob and Loud House airings with The Amazing World of Gumball and Teen Titans Go! - two Cartoon Network shows that the channel added in June. Corus also operates the Canadian versions of Cartoon Network and Disney Channel, both of which are staying on the air.
Meanwhile, Corus' preschool channel Treehouse currently runs Nickelodeon preschool series such as Blaze and the Monster Machines and Bubble Guppies, but these will also be leaving on September 1.
Co-productions and Nickelodeon-branded shows that are distributed by third party companies appear to remain on Corus' channels.
While the full week's schedule isn't known just yet, it appears that Corus, a long-time Nickelodeon partner - has lost the rights to broadcast Nickelodeon programming, and not just the branded channel.
Nickelodeon programming will still be available on Paramount+ Canada.
Update (8/28) - YTV has now removed Nickelodeon programming from its official website, ytv.com.
