6teen is a Canadian animated sitcom which premiered in Canada on November 7, 2004 on Teletoon. In the USA, 6teen first premiered on Nickelodeon on December 18, 2005 and was removed from the schedule on May 13, 2006. 6teen was previously aired on The N and Cartoon Network in the United States. With the first 78 episodes and both 45-minute-long specials produced by Nelvana and the final season by Fresh TV, 6teen ended with a total of four seasons of 95 22-minute-long episodes (including two one-hour specials). The series finale, "Bye Bye Nikki? Part 2", included an acoustic remake of the theme song by Brian Melo. DVD and iTunes releases have been made in both Canada and the USA. Though ended, the series creators Pertsch and McGillis both extended a willingness for a possible two-hour reunion telemovie or a feature film. On January 3, 2011, 6teen returned with reruns to Teletoon, where it airs weekend mornings at 3:00 a.m. EST, and it recently returned to its former weekday schedule at 7:00 p.m. EST. Reruns of the show currently air on YTV.
6teen is an animated sitcom for children, pre-teens, and teenagers. The plots take place almost entirely in a gigantic shopping mall. The mall could be based on any big mall in Canada and some fans suspect West Edmonton Mall in Edmonton, Alberta but as there are frequent references to the Toronto Maple Leafs hockey team and none for the Edmonton Oilers, The Eaton Centre in Toronto, Ontario is more likely. The series follows the cast of six sixteen-year-old friends in their first part-time jobs and teenage lives.
