Omg, omg. xD I saw this article and I nearly fainted. >.<" I also screamed cause I know there is hope that another company will get it. xD I knew Nickelodeon will get it cause it's the only kids show left that I have known. xD Cause Cartoon Network, Disney, and 4kids.tv are down cause they don't get Winx.
Yes!!!! Winx Club Season 4, 5, 6 will be in USA and other countries above. WOW...Season 6 too? When did we hear that? First time it have been confirmed. 0.0 Winx is so Popular. xD
2 Movies will be coming to America and other countries above!! It have rights. xD Yippie!!!! which includes the First Movie and the 2nd Movie. Horray!!!!
Right now, they are going to rerun the series of 1, 2 - 1 hour each episodes. Then in 2011, Season 3 and 4 will air. =) 2012: All Nick Stations will have Season 5 and 6, I don't know why they said except Italy?
For now, I don't know when are they going to Air Nick in USA and other countries above. We gotta wait and watch Nick for the Promo. I hope everyone here who lives in USA and countries above have a Nick channel. =)
Aw man, I just wish they start Season 4. =/ Cause we seen Season 1, 2, and 3 already.
So could it be that all the dolls, magazines, video games, DVDs, ect will all be back? Cause they were here since 2005. Hope they bring them back. xD
(Problem: I don't know where to put this topic, so...if this topic is 4kids.tv then it have to be change to Nick. xD)
Links? Not that I don't believe you, I just want to make super-duper sure.
I know. It's in Maxinews I'm trying to find the link cause VEU from http://winxclubdreams.forumcommunity.net/?t=40252306 found the article about it. And I'm still searching the official link where VEU got it from. **still searching**
EDIT: Wait, P-Girl. I found it, you just have to read the articles so many of them: http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&rlz=1T4GGLL_enUS308US309&q=nickelodeon+having+Winx+Club
They just announced it today. Wow. xD
Here are some links:

So on....and on...just gotta click the google link up there. =D
It's Official. xD
EDIT: Also Michael's Winx Club posted it up too~ http://michaelsfavorites2.com/winxclub3/newspage.html
It's found it's way to Michael's favorites. That's good enough for me.
Thanks for the news, a sixth season now that's something that has not been confirmed before. Its just a shame its not coming to free TV. I am fairly sure rai has its own Italian channel so they will most probably want to continue handling it.
I just saw it on Michael's, thats amazing! Its weird that season 6 is confirmed when we havent so much as gotten a picture of season 5, but I'm not complaining =P Hopefully this means America will no long we Winx deprived (Y)
That is excellent and reassuring news! I do hope that it is successful here (I personally think it will be a hit among young girls, as stated in the article. I certainly do not doubt the series at all.) ^_^
It is so, so nice to hear that someone is actually paying attention to and taking an interest in Winx, and it's even better to know that it's one of the most well-known cartoon distributers here. With this news, I truly believe that Rainbow is the little Italian animation company that could.
your welcome. xD
Hehe, omg. 0.0 I just heard that in Nickelodeon Article, they will be airing Winx Club Season 1, 2, 3, and 4 in 2011 and (Season 1 will go first) they will air 4 HOURS = 8 EPISODES of WINX CLUB (Remember Each episodes are 30 Minutes Long). It seems that they gotta air it fast so they can get to Season 2, 3, and 4 you know like catch up with the other countries. ^^" I think they must have heard Winx Club from 4kids.tv so they gotta keep up. =)
**The other article says an hour...but this article below says 4 hours.**
"Prior to launching the new seasons of Winx Club, Nickelodeon will introduce the series on the network in 2011 by airing four hour-long animated specials based on seasons one and two, as well as the episodes from seasons three and four." --> This article: http://www.nickandmore.com/2010/09/02/nickelodeon-acquires-winx-club-will-co-produce-seasons-5-and-6/
Oh gosh, I don't know how will I sit and watch the 8 episodes in 4 hours to see Season 1, 2, and 3 again. Then New Season 4. xD I just hope they play it in the afternoon. Just wait and see, Nickelodeon might change it around.
**For 1st Movie, no idea? Maybe after Season 3?**
I saweth this on Michael's! Fantastic news!
Suggestion: Should we maybe move this to like, the news section, so then it's on the main page and everything, being this is probably the biggest Winx news that's happened since S4.
I'm just wondering.... as it isn't 4Kids screening the series, does that mean that Nick will be screening the Cinelume (Rai) English versions, with the episodes as they were originally intended, or have they acquired the rights to the 4Kids smegged up versions and screening those for the first few seasons? I darned hope they will be screening the Cinelume versions!
I NEED TO FIND A WAY TO RECORD TV NOW
ATLEASTFOR SEASON 5
I DONT KNOW WHERE CAPS LOCK IS ON MY LAPTOP -.-
dreamywinxgirl94 you have brought hope to my world once again. I thought Canadians would never get to see Winx Club on TV ever again, and now we can ^.^
I just need to convince my parents to buy Nick on cable.
OMG OMG MERCH RIGHTS YESS FINALLY!!! and OMG ITS COMING BACK YES!! stfu 4kids XDD im so ecited.. expet is pay tv >.> im camping at friends houses XD hehe
WOOTLINESSSSS! WINX IS BACKKKKK! . I is full of excitement.
*Squee*
Winx is back in action! This is so great!
I need to get a TV tuner.. :'(
Well, I suppose I could record them proper with what I use to record xbox, but I would need to buy an S video cable, hook it into my TV box and record it on my laptop.. Dunno how quality would be. I need to check it out.
All I need is three RCA cables of moderate length and I can record.
:)
AHH
WHEN IS THE FOUR PART SPECIAL GOING TO AIR??
Because if... n o no no no it isn't going to be within the week . .
Rita, dyeah but is on pay-tv and i dont have pay-tv wich sucks really. i hate that. becuase i dont have pay-tv i miss out on alot of good shows. :c nyeh i have youtube so all is well XD
I don't have pay TV either, so I will be relying on youtube as well
For the UK too? YEAH
Umm, didn't they used to show the 4Kids version on Nick over here anyway? I highly doubt it's the 4kids version. I mean, four seasons are gonna be shown, amirite? I think they will just use the cinelume version since that is the official english one anyway.
Am I the only one not surprised by a 6th Season? This show is so successful.
Sadly, the list of country does not include those of our South East Asia. Guess we will have to stick to Youtube.
Btw, wkw427, I sure hope you find a way to record season 5 and 6 because there're 4000+ subscribers on your Youtube channel waiting for you. 90% of them will annoy you to death if they don't have what they want (Stupid people), (I'm of the other 10% xD).
I believe the Winx will go even further, a third movie perhap
WINX CLUB forever!
OOOH!! OMG OMG NICKELODEON! I HAVE THAT!
but is it coming in our nick? IDK
Yep me too, you tube is now my winx source
Would boost my self esteem, and also put stress on my if you said I am your winx source.. .. .. .. yesh
Need to buy wires off of best buy :S
It will most likely be the Rai version of the cartoon. Much like what Cartoon Network aired before. 4Kids has the rights to their version (most likely why they change it so much) and has only three seasons of it where the Rai version has 4 and a movie (plus most likely the 5 season and 2nd movie).
Rai will have seasons 1-6 and both movies. Though I wouldn't consider the movies to be rai, as they aren't the same VA..
Does anyone know if there's a way to record stuff from TV directly to DVD? The sad about about TV is I can't pause and rewind if stuff goes by way too fast for me to understand, so I wanna record them to DVD so I can upload it to my PC and watch it again and again and email it to all my friends.
I don't know. =/ Sorry, Abdu but I never tried that. I just wait for the DVD. ^^" I don't know if you can do it, but I know you can do it with tape *VCR* (the old fashion way). Never heard of it with the Disc like DVD recording from the TV.
Hmm.. Right, but it might come here, ive never heard of an Arabic winx club though :/
@ abdu you can record to DVD it you have a recorder that is capable of doing so
@dreamywinx thanks for the information
@ Abdu you can record to dvd from free tv with a dvd recorder, which you can buy at most electrical stores (well in Australia you can). I actually have one set up in my room lol. I know I can hook it up to our pay tv system (sadly that's in the main lounge, and I don't own the house lol) but unsure if you would be able to, since I don't know if Winx Club is on your free tv service or on pay tv and if it is on pay tv then I don't know how your system would work.
I have a DVR, so I can record the shows on my TV box and play them back whenever.
So, basically
1. Record it when it airs. Possibly the hardest part, because I don't want either of my parents to know I watch a magical girl show -.-
2. I can play it back whenever, hopefully the day after.
3. Use a 5 year old capture card to record it to my computer
4. edit
5. upload
6. ???
7. PROFIT!
Your welcome, Marty. =)
Oh me too, I have the DVR and it will work, though I have to find some space to record the Winx Club again of course with Season 4 and on cause my dad used all the space for his movies. -_-
Oh my god, this is so exciting! This is so much faster than I thought Winx would get re-liscensed.
I think it would be funny if nickelodeon re-dubbed it all with their "celebrities." iCarly could play Musa, vicTORIous could play Tecna, True Jackson VP could play Layla, and they could make Winx the triumphant return of Amanda Bynes to Nickelodeon as Bloom.
That of course won't happen, but I think it'd be great if it did. We'll probably get the Rai dub of the show, but hopefully a new dub of the movies since the official dub is terrible.
The movies too? Sweeettt....
Now, I don't always have to rely on the 4:30 show every friday! Whhoooo!
Nothing much new, but the flyer just released. =)
Coming to 2011. xD
Credits to wingx.eu.tc
Heh, I remember when they aired season 1 on cartoon network. That was years ago.
It suprises me that its 100 countries. Thanks for the poster
Oh cool. xD
Lol, I didn't know that. I thought they forgot something. Is Benelux Dutch? Cause I never heard of that country. =)
Nope, it's Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg. Hence, Benelux. {http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benelux}
100 countries does not surprise me. Winx really was a phenom. If this leads to dubbed episodes in English for the rest of season 4 and then season 5 and 6? that will be nice indeed.
Oh thanks, Jahnavi. =)
AWSOME! <3 IM SOOOOOOO HAPPY but i dont have nicalodeon :) but its really GREAT/FANTASTIC TO HEAR WINX IS COMMING BACK. in australia they played winx on toasted tv . . allthough they HARLDLY NEVER played it and i started to get anoyed! but its GREAT to hear there coming back XD
oh god toasted TV, i hated them so much after pip and dan left D:
and i had to bombard them with emails for them to even concider playing winx club season 3!! gnnyyaaahhhh i dont suppose theres any chance of them playing season 4.. nope!
Toasted TV? Reminds me of toasting the bread. xD Funny name.
They have Winx Club? What happen to it? Strange..
Its a morning cartoon show that airs daily and use to air winx club. They only aired the three seasons (4kids version) so who knows why they gave it up. They aired pokemon, yughio, tmnt plus a few other cartoons too. They actually have a piece of toasted bread with jam on it as their symbol too, cause it's a breakfast show I suppose lol. Oh not real bread and jam though just a cartoon drawn one. Pip and Dan use to host the 2 hour show so that's who shani was referring to.
Shani: I agree totally with you, I haven't seen much of it since they gave up winx club lol and the fact that pip and dan left too
Oh thanks for the info, Kel03. =)
It's a bummer they look like 4kids.tv cause they lost Winx Club, but Nick is getting them back. Yippie. xD
hopefully Nickelodeon will not butcher the series as 4kids did...
Actually It may be a little bit until they announce Winx will be on Nick because they normally announce new shows like that during the Kid Choice Awards or a TV Movie Primer. So it could be anywhere from next April to Next Monday (Seeing as the new iCarly movie is coming out Monday.) So yeah it might be a little bit. But hay at least a GOOD company will be dubbing Winx rather than STUPID 4Kids. I'm glad a lot of company's are pulling their licences from them.

Winx Club in Nickelodeon is coming in SPRING 2011! =D Coming to USA, Canada, UK, Australia, Latin America, New Zealand, and Benelux.
Can't wait. xD
Permission to spread the news to Livejournal?
Pay TV is the TV you have to pay to watch TV channels for a single channel or a group of channels e.g Sky
Thanks for the information
...too bad Nick doesn't air here.
*Slightly offtopic* Pffft, total epiphany. Awhile back, 4kids sold TMNT to Nickelodeon. Why I'm just remembering this now, is beyond me.
Sure P-Girl, but image is from Wingx. =)
Your welcome, Marty.
Aw, Teagan. =/ Hope you can see it if it's on YouTube. xD Or I'm curious if Nick is going to have their own channel in YouTube or they show the videos online on their official site. Maybe so..don't know.
oh i love wingx.eu! c: dey always know eveything first. well that and michaels winx.
From the look of things just happened, I just hope they dont take down every episode uploaded like they did with season 4.
Toasted TV stopped showing 4Kids episodes of Winx because:
@ rhythm actually toasted tv hasn't aired winx in about 3 years so it's not due to the 4kids license being taken away, its more likely that channel 10 (which owns/airs toasted tv in my part of Australia) decided not to renew the license to make way for other cartoons. Also boomerang has been continuously airing season 4 since June and so this is about the 5th time it's been completely shown on there, and season 3 has been airing every Sunday morning as well (since about June or July as well)
Scratch that, I found the season 4 episode download thread, and it's awesome~ (sorry about the double post, but I see no edit button)
silly toasted TV. honestly they've gone downhill i remember when they aired winx and pokemon (season one), code lyoko ect. i mean not the best clippet of shows but more decent than now.. i miss cheese TV and their anime sessions.
but anyhow im glad 4kids doesnt have the rights anymore.. they're edits were apauling - although they're voice actors were better than rai's.
this is good

Another More News! ^_^
Nickelodeon work with Rainbow on Winx Club season 5 and 6
We are the Winx, come join the Winx! It’s not just a slogan anymore, it’s how the Winx Club does business! Nickelodeon and Rainbow are now fully working together on the upcoming seasons of the Winx Club, as Nick brings the toon over to their world. The pair will produce the next 52 episodes of the series, with a potential for many more to come in the future beyond that. Bloom, Stella, Musa, Tecna, Flora, and Layla all fall under the same umbrella as SpongeBob, Dora, and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. New episodes will hit the air in 2012, with four specials debuting in 2011 – two feature films are also bundled into the deal.
Yep, they are coming in 2011 in Spring. ^_^ (Other Official Image of Rainbow S.p.A Poster said it's coming in Spring.) They will start Season 1 to 3, 1st Movie, Season 4, and 2nd Movie in 2011. The Series will be 4 Hours Special. ^_^ Then in 2012 will be Season 5 and 6. (I don't know there's no plans yet. ^_^)
I wonder how does Nick will do the whole Winx Club in 2011. It's alot of Winx and Magic going on. xD So can't wait. We have like 4 Months Left to reach towards Spring!
thanks for the info, does that mean there will be only one english version not 2 like there was when 4kids have winx. Its the specials that have me curious
cool new episodes comeing to the uk. i hope they bring out winx club the lost kingdom to the uk i been waiting for that for some time.
Your welcome, I really don't know. =/ We just have to wait and see. Yep, the specials are curious for me too.
To Keyblade Master, I'm pretty sure they will. ^_^ Just we have to be patient when we get towards to 2011. =)
I'm literally bouncing up and down right now
Hehe, that's good of you. xD
I'm so excited! I was like "When is Winx starting again?" or "Oh when, oh when!!??!!" and now I really know it's coming back!! Thanks for telling!! ^^
