I want to watch full epasodes of saved by the Bell.It's not being replaced or relaunched. The channel where one could go to for mTV is now forever empty.
With all this rebranding, Bell should have relaunched it as TBS Canada or CTV throwbacks.

Content rights are key, and they have to be profitable to be a channel.
The problem with a throwbacks channel is that it takes too much attention away from their streaming service:

That's all north America seems to cair about now.
Streaming.
Do you know what happened when Internet with rogers went out?
People with rogers could not watch Netflix or even their cable channels on ignite.
If you look up media in some countries like india, They still put efert into their cable channels.
And I think now, most Indians would have internet.

Also, TBS is already available in Canada for a long time now as Peachtree TV.

That isn't really true anymore. Peachtree TV and TBS used to have the same lineup, but the rebrand came because they were switching formats. The feed distributed to Canada dropped the superstation status airing movies and sports, to become a local station serving the Atlanta-area, while the TBS name and content carried on exclusively as a separate cable channel. As part of the AT&T acquisition of Warner, they sold off Peachtree TV and now it operates as a CW affiliate. That CW affiliate is the one available in Canada, though a lot of providers (including Rogers) have since dropped it.
The TBS cable channel has no official distribution in Canada. Though, looking at their slate of first-run programming, I'm not sure we're missing a whole lot.

I think around 2012, Peachtree turned into mostly another version of BET.
About BET, I don't miss it at all.
I did'nt understand half there shows and what the commedies were about, Our socalled black community is different here in Canada.
Before fitsroy passed, He should have launched a channel like BET for Caribbian Canadians.
Blacks in Canada don't listen to rap, and that's all BET was.
Just rap and commedies about those anoing gangster families.
No documentaries about the culture or caribbian countries for the rest of us to learn about the culture.
Good riddins!BET.

Nope. They are totally different channels. WTBS originally operated on OTA ch 17 in Atlanta. The call letters for the OTA Atlanta channel were changed to WPCH when TBS became a separate national U.S. channel. TBS was never approved by the CRTC for distribution in Canada. Currently, the daytime schedule for TBS includes reruns of Family Matters, Young Sheldon, Friends and Big Bang Theory.

Thanks for lowering my hopes.
TBS is a shell of what it was.
The same shows that are on CTV's free streamer.

And by the way, The commedies were better on WPCH than on BET.
I also liked their educational content as a kid.

Yup. That's where everything's going. Bell still has to make money on their Bell Fibe service, so there will still be content left where it is today and moving forward... Both Bell and Rogers have figured this out and thought things through already, I'm pretty sure.
