YTV (rumoured to stand for "Youth Television" at its founding, their website denied this) is a Canadian speciality cable channel focusing on animated and live-action programs for school-age children and younger teenagers. It launched on September 1st 1988. Initially launched by Rogers Commmunications, it was leveraged by then-rival Canadian cable producer Shaw between 1995-1998, and in 1999 Shaw's media assets were spun off into Corus Entertainment, which owns the channel to this day.

In the late 1990s, YTV co-produced (and served as Canadian primary broadcaster for) the Beast Wars Beasties and Beast Machines cartoons, even maintaining a web page for the former series.
