Gulli (Stylised as gulli) (French pronunciation: [gy. li]) is a French free-to-air television channel focused on kids programming for those aged 3 to 14. It created a result as a partnership between Lagardère Active and state-owned broadcaster France Télévisions. In 2019, the M6 Group bought Gulli as well as the television division of the Lagardère Active Group.
Why It's Not Nice Anymore
- The main problem with this channel is they made a terrible choice by choosing to be bought by M6.
- Worse still, this takeover led to the deprogramming of several programs beloved by fans and which never returned despite fan requests, such as: Atomic Betty, Space Goofs, Ratz, Shuriken School, Rosie, Galactik Football, Street Football or Beyblade Metal Fusion/Master/Fury.
- In fact, the takeover of the TV channel by M6 caused the TV channel to lose its charm. It's along the same fate as 6ter, another TV channel belonging to M6 because it became a trash can from which M6 broadcast their original series either too old or rejected as Alvinnn!!! and the Chipmunks, Les Sisters, Malcolm in the Middle, My Wife and Kids, LEGO Masters, Le Meilleur Patissier or En Famille.
- Quantity over quality: Similar to Nickelodeon, The channel is trying too hard to be trendy, for example. during the Gu-Live prime on July 1, 2022, they invited Wejdene, a horrible French singer who produced the infamous music and who is adored by the children but hated by the public.
- Speaking of that, the channel wanted to compete with Les Minikeums by presenting Gu'Live, a horrible block intended for children who broadcast terrible programs.
- Worse still first broadcast on Wednesday was over the broadcast from Monday to Friday and occupied the whole afternoon showing that the channel is blind to criticism.
- About their programs, they don't care about the quality of their broadcasts but rather about their audiences, which shows that they don't care if their broadcasts are good or bad.
- In fact, if a program watching of it satisfies them, while if no one watching their deprogram.
- Except that the problem is that some programs are over broadcast and therefore because some programs like Oswaldo have unfairly deprogrammed due to low audiences.
- In fact, if a program watching of it satisfies them, while if no one watching their deprogram.
- Similar to Cartoon Network with Teen Titans Go!, the channel treats many good or bad programs as their cash cow by excessively over-broadcasting them such as:
- Alvinnn!!! and the Chipmunks: The most infamous example that's over-processed and subjected to the airing of multiple episodes in a row.
- Boy Girl Dog Cat Mouse Cheese: (Although not bad from your point of view) is another example of a show being pushed by the channel in hopes of finding a successor to what was around in the early 2010s.
- The Loud House, although not bad in the early season, was also treated excessively by the channel and occupied several audience time.
- Zig & Sharko, although not terrible in the early season, is an infamous example of over-broadcasting they're unfairly hated by several people and becoming a very underrated show.
- Unlike Okoo (France Televisions) and Disney Channel, its lifelong rival, the channel abuses advertising by broadcasting them for at least 5 minutes, several times in a row.
- They deprogrammed In Ze Boite, the channel's game show, despite Joan's request for the return of her show.
- Back then and during this era, they're some terrible programs such as:
- Alvinnn!!! and the Chipmunks (The most example that triggered the fall of the TV channel)
- Ben 10 (2016)
- Beyblade Burst Turbo and Surge
- SpongeBob SquarePants (seasons 6-8)
- The Loud House (seasons 4-present)
- Bunsen is a Beast

- Trolls de Troy
- Arthur and the Minimoys
- Bakugan: Battle Planet

- Xiaolin Chronicles
- The Fairly OddParents (seasons 9 & 10)
- Zig & Sharko (season 3 & 4)
- Transformers: Robot in Disguise
- Maya the Bee (2012 reboot)
- In addition to horrible programs they also broadcast horrible live actions like:
- Multiple editions of Power Rangers from the Neo Saban era
- Power Rangers Dino Fury
- The Thundermans
- Chica Vampiro (The most infamous example)
- School of Rock
- They tried to increase the audience by attracting an older audience with Gulli Prime, which goes against the channel.
- The majority of cult blocks have replaced and their names named.
- Code Aventure has become Gulli Go.
- Méchamment Drole has become Gulli Toon.
- Girl Power has become Gulli Pop.
- They have also broadcast horrible films such as The Emoji Movie, the Alvin and the Chipmunks quadrilogy, The Smurfs deology, Kev Adams' 2 Aladdin films, The Lorax, and many bad others.
- On September 1, 2016, the Russian feed of Gulli was renamed to Gulli Girl because of the "success of the Girl Power block", and now only broadcasts shows geared towards a "female audience", thus pandering to the "It's made for girls/boys" excuse. Despite the feed having a feminist nature, it still broadcasts shows that don't really feel like they are geared towards girls, including Boy Girl Dog Cat Mouse Cheese and Zig and Sharko.
- Broadly similar to Bom Dia & Cia it's huge downgrade or even falls that turned the channel into a slot machine that doesn't know how to handle it at all and still hasn't recovered from its fall and because of that many fans stopped to watch the channel.
