CITV is dead. Long live CITV.

So, we knew this day was coming but it's finally actually arrived. CITV was the home of many wonderful shows in the 2000s and 2010s. So to see it thrown away in favour of the shite that is "streaming" is disappointing, if expected.

CITV was a channel I came straight home from school after 3:15pm to watch. At 4pm was Horrid Henry. For a whole hour. Sometimes I would catch the 3:30 timeslot airing Emu.

I remember staying at my grandparents aged 5 and watching Kid vs Kat and My Goldfish is Evil. I remember waking up on a weekend to find Toonattik on (I also played the board game of that). I remember Action Stations, Sooty, a sock puppet that made this weird horn noise...

Anyway with the closing down of yet another pinnacle of my childhood, joining Jetix, Disney XD, Playhouse Disney, Disney Channel and Disney Junior (eagle eyed readers would know these channels shared three particular spots), the 2020s are proving my disdain for modern "culture" is warranted personally. I cannot express enough how sad this makes me.

Video on its way to Infinity Games to accompany this:

In the meantime, CBBC stands. But not for much longer. The end of raising kids in a vaguely responsible way is upon us.

never would I have ever have thought that with 2024 would come along a weird array of hyper fixations, one of which being a cartoon from the early 2000’s

but yes guys pls 2024, let’s bring back the Charlie and Lola fandom that would be so funny

and my silly little doodles of marv because 6 year old me was all over him

This guy mind u (on the left) why? Because he had a blue hoodie and I liked blue at the time and he had a brunette birds nest that was supposed to be his hair how could I not adore that?

So, now that I mentioned Worzel Gummidge’s nephew, I’d better also mention that he was the first character I can remember who gave me gender envy. I wanted to look like that little cockney scarecrow so much. His name was Pickles Bramble, but as a kid I didn’t know that. I just called him The Crow Boy.

So when I was a kid, in around reception (which would probably be kindergarten age for anyone outside of the UK), whenever it was someone's birthday, the birthday kid in question would bring in a little tub of sweets to give out to everyone at the end of the day, and this was lovely and wholesome, but I think at some point they stopped kids from handing out birthday sweets because it was "unhealthy". 

Okay Janet deprive kids of a little tiny bag of Haribo Starmix why don't you-

My god just let the kids live and have a lil treat.
