As with Teletoon, Retro is a bilingual service, with the French version of the channel (called Télétoon Rétro) launched on September 4, 2008. Unlike with Teletoon's French and English versions, Télétoon Rétro's programming remained mostly consistent with that of its English counterpart from beginning to end, although unlike the English counterpart, it showed retro {{anime}} and old {{Preschool Show}}s as well. The French version was also somewhat less faithful to the "nostalgic" theme of the channel compared to its Anglophone counterpart, with ''WesternAnimation/JohnnyTest'' and ''WesternAnimation/TotallySpies'' being counted among its programming.

As a Canadian television network, Teletoon Retro is subject to Canadian Content laws, meaning that a certain percentage of its daily programming must be Canadian in origin. As a result, many Canadian and Canadian-American co-productions of the 80s and 90s aired on the network (particularly classic series from the Corus-owned Creator/{{Nelvana}}), including ''WesternAnimation/TheRaccoons'', ''WesternAnimation/{{Beetlejuice}}'', and ''WesternAnimation/InspectorGadget''. One notable difference from Boomerang is that, while they've flirted with NetworkDecay here and there, having aired a few PuppetShows (''Series/FraggleRock'' and ''Series/TheBananaSplits'' both being in the initial lineup when the channel debuted), and even some completely live-action series in their later years (like the 1966 ''Series/{{Batman|1966}}'' series and ''Series/MightyMorphinPowerRangers''), they remained consistent about keeping contemporary programming out to the end.

In August 2015, Corus announced the shutdown of Teletoon Retro effective September 1, 2015, being replaced with the Canadian version of Creator/CartoonNetwork in some regions, and the Canadian Creator/DisneyChannel in others. Some of the show's programming thus returned to Teletoon to be aired in graveyard slots, but this was ultimately short-lived. Nonetheless, Teletoon Retro remains fondly remembered by longtime Canadian TV viewers, being the most widely subscribed specialty channel in the country throughout its 8-year run and avoiding most of the problems that have plagued its American counterparts.

Teletoon Retro was a Canadian specialty channel launched in 2007 as a spinoff of the cable animation network Creator/{{Teletoon}}. Like its parent channel, it was wholly acquired by Creator/CorusEntertainment in 2013, although its ownership remained wholly under that of Teletoon. While largely unheard of outside of Canada, the channel can be summed up mostly succinctly as this: if Teletoon is traditionally thought of as the Canadian counterpart of Creator/CartoonNetwork, then Teletoon Retro can be thought of as Canada's version of Creator/{{Boomerang}}.

Beginning life as a programming block on Teletoon that aired classic cartoons like ''WesternAnimation/TheFlintstones'', ''WesternAnimation/RockyAndBullwinkle'', and ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'', Teletoon Retro was made into its own separate channel on October 1, 2007 (interestingly, this was actually the second effort to launch the channel, the first being an unsuccessful attempt in 2000). Like its parent channel, Teletoon Retro is dedicated almost entirely to cartoons, but whereas Teletoon focuses primarily on modern, mostly kid-oriented programming, Teletoon Retro is mainly marketed to older, more nostalgic audiences, especially parents who want to share their childhood shows with their kids. As a result, iconic cartoons of the pre-cable television years are the mainstay of the channel, including compilations of [[UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfAnimation Golden Age theatrical animated shorts]], Creator/HannaBarbera's library of classic animation, and MerchandiseDriven 80s cartoons. In the 2010s however, 90s shows like early Creator/CartoonNetwork originals and Creator/FoxKids series would also be added to Teletoon Retro's library, as the network's license dictated that all of its programming must be at least 10 years old.

As a Canadian television network, Teletoon Retro is subject to Canadian Content laws, meaning that a certain percentage of its daily programming must be Canadian in origin. As a result, many Canadian cartoons and Canadian-American co-productions of the 80s and 90s aired on Teletoon Retro (particularly classic Creator/{{Nelvana}} series), including several shows that had gone off the Canadian airwaves for at least a decade. Like Teletoon, they've flirted with NetworkDecay here and there, having aired a few PuppetShows, and in their later years, even some completely live-action series, but unlike Creator/{{Boomerang}}, they remained consistent about keeping contemporary programming out to the end.

Teletoon Retro was a Canadian specialty channel launched in 2007 as a spinoff of the cable animation network Creator/{{Teletoon}}. Like its parent channel, it was wholly acquired by Creator/CorusEntertainment in 2013, although its ownership remained wholly under that of Teletoon. While largely unheard of outside of Canada, the channel can be summed up mostly succinctly as this: if Teletoon is traditionally thought of as the Canadian counterpart of Creator/CartoonNetwork, then Teletoon Retro can be thought of as Canada's version of Creator/{{Boomerang}}.

Beginning life as a programming block on Teletoon that aired classic cartoons like ''WesternAnimation/TheFlintstones'', ''WesternAnimation/RockyAndBullwinkle'', and ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'', Teletoon Retro was made into its own separate channel on October 1, 2007 (interestingly, this was actually the second effort to launch the channel, the first being an unsuccessful attempt in 2000). Like its parent channel, Teletoon Retro is dedicated almost entirely to cartoons, but whereas Teletoon focuses primarily on modern, mostly kid-oriented programming, Teletoon Retro is mainly marketed to older, more nostalgic audiences, especially parents who want to share their childhood shows with their kids. As a result, iconic cartoons of the pre-cable television years are the mainstay of the channel, including compilations of [[UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfAnimation Golden Age theatrical animated shorts]], Creator/HannaBarbera's library of classic animation, and MerchandiseDriven 80s cartoons. In the 2010s however, 90s shows like early Creator/CartoonNetwork originals and Creator/FoxKids series would also be added to Teletoon Retro's library, as the network's license dictated that all of its programming must be at least 10 years old.

Like Teletoon, Teletoon Retro is a bilingual service, with the French version of the channel (called Télétoon Rétro) launched on September 4, 2008. Unlike with Teletoon's French and English versions, Télétoon Rétro's programming remained mostly consistent with that of its English counterpart from beginning to end, although unlike the English counterpart, it showed retro {{anime}} and old {{Preschool Show}}s as well.

In August 2015, Corus announced the shutdown of Teletoon Retro effective September 1, 2015, being replaced with the Canadian feed of Creator/CartoonNetwork in some regions and the Canadian Creator/DisneyChannel in others. Some of the show's programming thus returned to Teletoon to be aired in late-night graveyard slots after Teletoon at Night, but Teletoon Retro's reversion to being just a programming block was ultimately short-lived. Nonetheless, Teletoon Retro remains fondly remembered by longtime Canadian TV viewers, being the most widely subscribed specialty channel in the country throughout its 8-year run and avoiding the problem that its American counterpart Boomerang faced of being rendered obsolete by the rise of video on-demand services.
