Kindernet (as Nickelodeon Kindernet from 2011 to 2013) was a Dutch

television network that aired classic and modern children's television series

History

Original (1988–2003)

Kindernet began as an idea by

W H Smith and Japanese company Fuji Eight of the Fujisankei Communications Group. Because of most days, commercial television was not allowed by Dutch law, the Dutch network was broadcast via Luxembourg and England, and is considered to be the first commercial television network in the Netherlands.[1]

From 1988 to 2003, Kindernet aired between 7.00 and 10.00 AM, timesharing with other networks such as the Flemish

Net 5 (from 2000 to 2002).[2]
The network then went through a rebranding, during which the name was changed to Kindernet 5 (corresponding to Net 5).

By the end of the year 2001, Kindernet was acquired by

Cartoon Network. One year later, Kindernet was rebranded as Nickelodeon and ceased broadcast.[5]

Return (2011–13)

On 4 April 2011, Kindernet was relaunched as part of the Nickelodeon family of networks, replacing TMF. It initially aired between 6.00 AM and 3.00 PM, sharing network space with Comedy Central.[6]

On 1 October 2012, Kindernet's airtime was decreased from 9 hours to 3 hours, now airing from 6.00 to 9.00 AM.[7]

Kindernet officially shut down on 1 November 2013, allowing Comedy Central to expand in its place.[8]
