A historical moment in Indian Kids TV

Pokémon on both Disney and Cartoon Network! It’s not often that you find two of the competitor kids networks: Disney Networks with Hungama and Turner Broadcasting with Cartoon Network backing the same show!

Pokémon is back, bigger and better than ever! Pokémon Season 1, 2 and 3 play out on Hungama and has been a super hit right from its launch. The average rating recorded for this show continues to be over 1 TVR. Reaching out to a 57.1-million-strong audience across India, of which 24.2 million are kids, the show has ranked consistently. With Season 3, Hungama has added another slot of 9.00 pm to Pokémon prime play slots.

Cartoon Network has countered this by pulling out some of the Pokémon content of Season 14 and placing the same on their network. Pokémon Black & White runs on Cartoon Network. Daily Monday to Friday at 12:30pm and 8pm!

It’s a battle over one show across two networks. Broadcasters are backing it. Consumers love it! To jump on the Pokémon journey.Do write into: info@dream-theatre.co.in
