''Yorkiddin'' was a programming block on Yorin from 2001 to 2005, which started upon its rebrand from Veronica. It began on 6 October 2001, replacing the former ''Telekids''. At launch, it mainly aired reruns of animated series previously shown on RTL 4 and virtually little new content. Its launch put it at a share of only 2.4 percent onweekends, ascending to between 3 and 4% on school days, which was far lower than the shares obtained by Kindernet, Zappelin and Fox Kids. The main programme was ''@Cindy'', hosted by Cindy Pielstroom, airing on weekend mornings. ''@Cindy'' ended on 31 December 2002.

This enabled Cartoon Network to increase its visibility in the Netherlands, at a time when the channel was restricted to subscription packages. In 2003, with the success of ''Beyblade'', related competitions aired durin ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
