On 1 February 2016, the channel ceased airing its main animated series The Simpsons due to low ratings (2% share), whose French dub has been airing on the series for twenty years. The show moved to RTL Plug. At the time, RTL Belgium renegotiated with the production company every year to broadcast at least 150 old episodes.[3]
