Cookie Jar Toons
Cookie Jar Toons (also known as This Is for Kids) was a daily and weekend children's programming block on the This TV digital broadcast network when that network was partially owned by Weigel Broadcasting. The block was programmed by Canada-based DHX Media (formerly Cookie Jar Entertainment and now WildBrain).[1][2] The block used the name "Cookie Jar Toons" for E/I programs, and the name "This Is for Kids" for non-E/I programs. Many of the cartoons broadcast on the block were Cookie Jar archive programs from predecessors DIC and Cinar, though some (i.e.: Mona the Vampire) had never been seen in the US before; other programs (like Sonic Underground) were previously seen on other US networks.

gollark: Isn't Singapore also one of those somewhat-authoritarian not-very-democracy places?
gollark: Well, I don't know much about it and don't care very much.
gollark: Amazingly enough, people sometimes don't like being subjected to authoritarian regimes?
gollark: No, it's just China being authoritarian and people don't like it
gollark: I mean, they're not very granular, and probably weird and arbitrary to some extent.
