when did sailor moon first air in america
Sailor Moon (TV series) The series premiered in Canada on August 28, 1995 on YTV and in first-run syndication in the U.S. on September 11, but halted production in November 1995 after two seasons due to low ratings.[24][25] Despite moderate success in Canada, the U.S. airing struggled in early morning "dead" timeslots;[26] the series originally aired in the U.S. in morning and afternoon timeslots which Anne Allison describes as unsuitable for the target audience.[22] In contrast, due to the dubbing process being done in Canada, the series was considered Canadian enough to be screened in primetime as local content.[27] After the series was cancelled, a fan petition that garnered over 12,500 signatures was created.[28] This was later considered an early example of successful fan activism.[27] In 1997, re-runs of this cancelled dub began airing on USA Network. That same year, production on the series' English dub was resumed with the last 17 episodes of the second season, Sailor Moon R, and was broadcast in Canada from September 20 to November 21, 1997 to wrap up lingering plot lines.[29] The series finished airing on YTV in January 2004.
