History
As Boomerang (2014–21)
On 1 April 2014, Boomerang’s cartoon programming relaunched to the daytime schedule. It was later confirmed that the channel would be part of the worldwide rebrand which took place later on 28 September that year.[1]
Rebranding as Cartoonito (2021–present)
In October 2021, it was announced on SKY Brasil's lineup that Boomerang would be replaced by Cartoonito on 1 December.[2] Shortly after that, the Argentine pay television service Telered announced the replacement for the rest of Latin America on the same date.[3] Boomerang was replaced by Cartoonito throughout Latin America on 1 December 2021, becoming the first Cartoonito feed in the world to undergo the Global re-introduction.
