The network, which recently became ad-supported, will remain committed to animation, featuring programming that is 75% exclusive to the channel. In addition to a new name and logo, Nicktoons Network has unveiled a new look, including new packaging both on-air and on the network's new web site, http://www.NicktoonsNetwork.com.

In 2006, Nicktoons Network will launch three new series: Skyland, Kappa Mikey, and Shuriken School. Nicktoons Network will also premiere a new programming block entitled "Three-Headed Monster" which will run every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday night from 7:00pm to midnight (ET) beginning September 23. The weekend block will feature existing Nicktoons shows as well as two new series: My Dad the Rock Star and Martin Mystery.

Additionally, the network will remain committed to bringing Nextoons: The Nicktoon Film Festival to viewers each year.
