History Les Zouzous Debout les Zouzous Created and broadcast on 11 September 1999, Debout les Zouzous was weekly before becoming daily from 6:50 a.m. to 9 a.m. from September 2000. Until 2005, the program was broadcast between each animation clip or one-minute sketch in form of poetry or even karaoke, often in the characters of the animated series Rolie Polie Olie. This program was intended for preschoolers since it broadcast cartoons such as Louie or even SamSam, unlike Midi les Zouzous and Bonsoir les Zouzous which broadcast animated series for older children. Midi les Zouzous This programme was created and aired on 5 November 2001, to replace the Cellulo programme, Monday to Friday from 12 p.m. to 1:35 p.m., and Saturday until June 2007. From 2002, the show was aimed at a wider audience around 1 p.m., including the broadcast of Japanese cartoons such as Olive and Tom, Princess Sarah, Diplodos, The Mysterious Cities of Gold, Magical Princess Minky Momo, Ulysses 31, and many more. The 1 p.m. box earned real success with the broadcasts of these Japanese anime from the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s, then some unpublished cartoons. Bonsoir les Zouzous Created and broadcast on 9 September 2002, this program was broadcast from Monday to Sunday, over a time slot from 7:50 p.m. to 8:40 p.m. approximately.
