Initially, the channel showed animated shows and live-action shows with a voice-over. By 2000, all series were dubbed. For a time the station was losing viewers. On 1 July 2001, Zone Vision closed Fantastic channel due to poor performance and low audience reach. Some Nickelodeon cartoons and movies moved into channels like Canal+, MiniMax (now Teletoon+), TVP3, Tele 5, RTL7 (later TVN7), TV4, TVP1, Disney Channel and KidsCo before Nickelodeon Poland was officially launched on July 10, 2008.
