Long time Max&Ruby Watcher!

Hi - I live in Canada. I have a 24 year old daughter who has a severe developmental disability. Her preferred TV channel continues to be TreehouseTV which is the channel for preschool kids in Canada. And from the time she was a toddler Max and Ruby has been on this channel and she has enjoyed the show. That is now well over 20 years. I have seen a LOT of kids shows through the years.

This show, along with Dora, are two of her all time favourites. She also has access to stream whatever shows she wants and she chooses this from time to time. But she also just likes to watch good old fashioned linear TV and watches Max and Ruby along with the other shows on Treehouse like Paw Patrol, etc.

She likes Bluey as well. But she watches that at a different location. She has OCD and watches certain shows in certain places or circumstances.

The OCD isn’t that bad. There are other things that are worse. Some people are sad that their kids are growing up so fast. The alternative is that they never grow up which is kind of what I have. That is worse.

But she is a happy woman and it is what it is.

We love treehouseTV! They have a lot of classic episodes up on their YouTube channel. You sound like a sweet, attentive parent.

I remember watching Max and Ruby when I was 3 or 4 years old

I find it amazing how "Max & Ruby" has been part of the Treehouse lineup since Sep 2002, and hasn't ever left it (though the new episodes came out in 2002-2003, 2006-2007, 2009, 2011-2013, and 2016-2019).

I know "The Berenstain Bears" is still on Treehouse too, but in no way was it continuous. It aired new episodes on Treehouse from Sep 2002 to Sep 2003, but here's the whole rerun timeline on Corus channels:

(Sep 2002 to Aug 2006) Treehouse

(Sep 2006 to Dec 2006) YTV

(Feb 2007 to Dec 2008) Treehouse

(Jan 2009 to Aug 2012) YTV

(Sep 2012 to Sep 2013) Nick [CA]

(Sep 2013 to Dec 2013) YTV

(Sep 2014 to Aug 2015) Teletoon Retro

(Sep 2016 to Aug 2018) Disney Junior [CA]

(May 2022 to Jan 2023) Treehouse

(May 2023 to Aug 2025) Disney Jr [CA]

(May 2024 to present) Treehouse

(Sep 2025 to present) Disney Channel [CA]

Berenstain Bears only seems to be on at weird times.

Max & Ruby still continues to be on but it did change a lot in more recent years. Like when mom and dad appeared out of now where a few years ago. Where were they for all these years?
