Boomerang is a television channel targeting the Nordic countries. It broadcasts generally comedic cartoons.
In late 2005, Turner Broadcasting System reported that they had intended to launch the channel in the Nordic region. They had also applied for a license to broadcast Boomerang in the Swedish digital terrestrial network in the fall of 2005. Boomerang was, however, not granted a license by the Swedish government at the time.
The channel launched on April 1, 2008 from the Canal Digital platform. Boomerang had previously been offered as a programming block on Cartoon Network.
On February 1, 2010, the channel was launched on Viasat's satellite platform.
On January 19, 2015, Boomerang Nordic applied the Boomerang rebrand.
