What if D Tor Productions was founded in 1940/Dereck Torres Animation Television in 1985?/D Tor Junior

D Tor Junior is an American pay television channel run by D Tor Productions, a unit of the EzekielTorres Domestic Media Networks division of the EzekielTorres company, the channel's ultimate owner headquartered in Burbank, California, USA. It launched on February 14, 2011 as a spin-off of D Tor Channel's long-running preschool programming blocks with different names, which had aired since 1992. The channel, which is aimed at children under 6, features a mix of originally-produced programming, and series previously and concurrently aired on the D Tor Junior block and its previous iterations. Some of D Tor Junior's programming includes series such as Corn & Peg, PAW Patrol, Bubble Guppies, Blaze and the Monster Machines, Shimmer and Shine, and Dora and Friends: Into the City!. Due to the D Tor Channel block, D Tor Junior is sometimes disclaimed on air as "D Tor Junior on D Tor Channel" to avoid confusion, especially at times of day where both D Tor Channel and D Tor Junior are carrying preschool programming.

The channel replaced Playhouse D Tor, which was the former name for D Tor Junior from 1998 to 2011, and Playhouse D Tor originally replaced D Tor Channel: Ready! Set! Play! and acts as a separate sister brand. Playhouse D Tor/Ready! Set! Play!'s programming that contained the Playhouse D Tor Original and D Tor Channel: Ready! Set! Play! Original logo is plastered by the current D Tor Junior Original logo on EzekielTorres Now. However, on home releases of Playhouse D Tor and Ready! Set! Play! shows, they keep the original Playhouse D Tor and RSP logos.

The D Tor Junior channel and the D Tor Junior block continue to air as separate entities. The block currently airs weekdays on D Tor Channel from 8:00am to 2:00pm ET/PT. Those hours may vary during the summer months, other school break periods and on major national holidays), having traditional commercial breaks for certain programs. As of January 2017, D Tor Junior is available to approximately 73.0 million pay television households in the United States.
