Cookie Jar Entertainment is a Canadian entertainment company founded in 1976 as
Cinar. It started out as a film and television distribution company in New York, but in the 1980s, it moved to Montreal and would go on to make many children's shows, specifically animated cartoons.
After scandals involving its top executives, including the revelation that the popular
Robinson Sucroe was stolen from
Robinson Curiosité, a pitch made by Montreal artist Claude Robinson (with the lead even based on his own bearded likeness!), the studio was bought out by former
Nelvana executive Michael Hirsch, relocated to Toronto, and re-branded as Cookie Jar Entertainment in 2004. In 2008, the company acquired
DiC Entertainment. In 2012, the company was acquired by DHX Media.
The company currently runs the
Cookie Jar TV Saturday Morning Cartoon block on
CBS.
