Launched on September 1, 1988 (sharing with [[Family Channel Originals|Family Channel]], VisionTV, and The Weather Network), YTV was the successor to two prior special programming services operated by various Ontario cable companies beginning in the late 1970s. However they didn't use a logo until 1989. The two largest shareholders in YTV were two cable companies: Rogers Cable and CUC Broadcasting (which would later be acquired by [[Shaw Media|Shaw Communications]]). | Launched on September 1, 1988 (sharing with [[Family Channel Originals|Family Channel]], VisionTV, and The Weather Network), '''[[YTV]]''' was the successor to two prior special programming services operated by various Ontario cable companies beginning in the late 1970s.

The network is primarily aimed at preadolescents and young adolescents aged 8-15. | By 1995, through various acquisitions and trades, Shaw had secured full control of YTV; it was spun off as part of [[Corus Entertainment]] in 1999.
