Launch and Early Years (2000-2001)

Boomerang launched on 27 May 2000,[1] broadcasting from 6:00AM until 12:00AM on Sky Digital and certain cable systems. At the time, Cartoon Network had a unique schedule and so the channel was created by Turner Broadcasting to broadcast classic cartoons from the Hanna-Barbera, MGM and Warner Bros. archive programme library, as well as freeing its sister network of many classics in the schedule.[2]

In May 2001, Boomerang became the second highest-rated children's channel, beaten only by parent service Cartoon Network. In July of that year, the channel was added to on cable operator Telewest, thus increasing its viewership. James Greville, head of Cartoon Network UK at the time, stated, "The channel launched barely a year ago and yet it's already beaten established kids' channels in terms of ratings and share".[3] By November, the channel was available on NTL.[4]

BoomerangШаблон:When increased its library of old cartoons by acquiring rights to other animated shows such as Danger Mouse, The Pink Panther Show and Garfield and Friends.[5] By the end of 2003, the channel decided to stay away from its former purpose and shifted to broadcast television movies and series.Шаблон:Specify

A one-hour timeshift channel, Boomerang +1, launched on 6 March 2006.Шаблон:Citation needed

Boomerang rebranded with the new international graphics package developed by UK based graphic design agency Art&Graft on 16 February 2015.[6][7] The channel switched to 16:9 widescreen on 1 June 2015. A high-definition feed was launched on 24 June 2015.[8]

On 3 September 2018, the channel was rebranded once again.[9]

On 18 November 2020, Boomerang UK and Ireland were split into two regions following the move of the Bomerang Éire broadcasting licence to the Czech Republic. Boomerang Éire is managed by HBO Europe specifically targeting EU countries the Republic of Ireland, Malta and Gibraltar.[10]
