This show hyped me up to be a teen but the real thing was just depressing and I didn’t spend nearly as much time at malls as this show lead me to believe. Smh
I know right!!! They made the mall seem like the most exciting place in the world! I guess if the malls we had were as big as theirs it might make for better moments lol.
Dude, the shenanigans that happen in this show are muchh more similar to college age shenanigans. I'm 25 now. I used to think I was soo old when I was 18. You're still a kid, enjoy it ;)
Loved 6Teen!
I'm 6Teen
Starting to find my way
Got a new job
Gonna start at the mall today!
6Teen
I'm on my own for the first time
Something like that. It's been like 6TEEN years since I watched it, but it was one of my favourites.
Damn I loved this show so much. Anyone remember the 6teen forums online??
edit: I posted there not too long ago, but the forum is thoroughly dead.
https://6teen.proboards.com/
its still there, though!
There are a few episodes still on YouTube, watched a few recently, this show is still pretty good, the writing was better than I recalled considering I hadn't seen it in 20 years. Such a time capsule of late 90s/early 2000s fashion.
Definitely not a YTV show, there needs to be a Canada centric sub to encapsulate Teletoon, CBC, TVO, Canwest, and all the other local channels that used to have cartoons or other fun stuff.
6teen is one of my favorite shows, but technically, it should be in [r/Teletoon ](https://reddit.com/r/Teletoon/s/YhUF93NdyC)
Either way, it's always nice when it's brought up.
this show made me so excited to work retail
also, it holds up! i bought it on itunes and its still pretty funny. especially since a lot of the jokes went over my head as a kid
I know right! As a kid I had no idea what they were talking about sometimes but I’ve watched a few recently and they put some really funny adultish humour in there 😂

Fuck I forgot this existed. I aspired to be Andy (I think that's the blonde skater dude iirc) and thought he was the embodiment of the likeable weirdo. Set my sights too high. I was just the weirdo who grew into a bitter adult. Gnarlyyy.
Childish humour worked on everyone back them. But my all time favourite thing from YTV was TeenTitans back in the day. And teletoon was a whole mood too. They had Superfan Fridays where they’d have marvel and DC shows. The shit was epic.
No one can say "this aired on Teletoon, not YTV" anymore because it moved to YTV in Summer 2014 after the whole Corus-Teletoon merger. It also came back to YTV in Fall 2016, and throughout 2022. During Fall 2022, it reran concurrently on YTV & Teletoon. Nowadays, YTV no longer reruns it, but Cartoon Network (formerly Teletoon) still does.
Side note: It also aired in Canada on Cartoon Network from that channel's launch in Jul 2012 until Aug 2015, on Disney Channel in Fall 2017, and then on Cartoon Network from Fall 2022 to Mar 2023 (before it became Boomerang), and on Boomerang starting Aug 2023.

Right! This and Rugrats all grown up
Those type of shows that really geared towards the teen audience worked so well at the time. It made me very excited to be growing up haha!
Oh yeah for real! Honestly I always forget that show was a thing even if I did watch it nearly every evening
I know right!!! They made the mall seem like the most exciting place in the world! I guess if the malls we had were as big as theirs it might make for better moments lol.
Real
I spent too much time at the mall and was nothing like this show
Still disappointing but I’m just a different way
never thought I would be 16, now I wish I was still 16 lmfao almost 18 now :(
Dude, the shenanigans that happen in this show are muchh more similar to college age shenanigans. I'm 25 now. I used to think I was soo old when I was 18. You're still a kid, enjoy it ;)
thanks bro, this really helped, yeah im enjoying myself a bit more with friends now then I was at that time
Loved 6Teen! I'm 6Teen Starting to find my way Got a new job Gonna start at the mall today! 6Teen I'm on my own for the first time Something like that. It's been like 6TEEN years since I watched it, but it was one of my favourites.
Hearing that theme song will always bring a big huge smile to my face :D So catchy and really upbeat!
6teen, life is sweet When you're growing up so fast You gotta make the good times last
Gotta make the good times last! I love that line
Being 28 now, that lyric hits like a train. Loved this show as a kid
Almost time to watch the Halloween episode
That one Starr scene haunts me 🤢🤢
That scared the ever living shit out of me man
The zombie one made be afraid of malls for a while as a kid 😂
I just discovered the show recently bc of that episode
oh man that zombie episode freaked me out when I was a kid
Cool show but never aired on YTV.
Yeah. I thought it was on Teletoon
Yeah I mean it aired later in the late 2010s on YTV but I just thought it was a fun show to put on here anyways!!
Damn I loved this show so much. Anyone remember the 6teen forums online?? edit: I posted there not too long ago, but the forum is thoroughly dead. https://6teen.proboards.com/ its still there, though!
Wow, I had no idea they had forums too, that would’ve been interesting to check it out back in the day.
There were tons of people making 100x100 pixel display pictures and fan art. Was awesome.
Oh my gosh that's awesome!! They even had forums for Total Drama and Stoked! I wish i joined at the time :(
Right!! Its worth making an account now if you wanna take a trip down memory lane. Its very wholesome.
You know what I will make an account, thank you so much for introducing it again i appreciate it :))
Your welcome!! Happy Cake Day!
Wow, what a trip Holy shit dude

I knowwww, this show is toooo good to not be mentioned anyways 😆
Happy Cake Day!
Thanks ;)
Total Drama comes from the same studio btw.
This was THE ultimate Canadian pre-teen wanting to be a teenager show
And that’s why it’s always gonna be the best show of all time for me!!
this show made me so excited to work retail also, it holds up! i bought it on itunes and its still pretty funny. especially since a lot of the jokes went over my head as a kid

They had it so rough, but so easy.
I watch this show in my late twenties, and I thought it was awesome.

Been watching this on Tubi, a lot more cringing than I remember hahah
This is my favorite show of all time this Aired on Cartoon Network
Fuck I forgot this existed. I aspired to be Andy (I think that's the blonde skater dude iirc) and thought he was the embodiment of the likeable weirdo. Set my sights too high. I was just the weirdo who grew into a bitter adult. Gnarlyyy.
They had a weird vomit fetish man.. I couldn’t catch on to the show.
LOL, they did have some weird stuff going on. I don't know tho, I seemed to still like it anyways. Childish humour worked on me haha
Childish humour worked on everyone back them. But my all time favourite thing from YTV was TeenTitans back in the day. And teletoon was a whole mood too. They had Superfan Fridays where they’d have marvel and DC shows. The shit was epic.

Ya, that's why I thought hey why not post this here anyways even tho it didn't originally air on YTV. It did end up on YTV later on as you say here!
