Background

Junior is a German preschool channel which has been broadcast in Germany since 1996 and Israel since 1997 for children between 3 and 7 years of age. Junior was owned and operated by EM.TV from 1996 to 2008. In 2006, the rights of all Junior shows along with the libraries of Yoram Gross shows were purchased by Belgian animation company, Studio 100. In Germany, as of April, 2007, it timeshares the channel slot with XL TV (anime) after 8 PM. Former TV channels which timeshared with Junior includes EGVHToon (cartoons), Gametrix (video games), later GTV (video games), and d+ (entertainment, now RTL Nitro). After EM.TV changes the name to EM.Sport Media, Junior was eventually sold to Studio 100 in 2008.
