The Next Level (TV series)

The Next Level is a Canadian-American television series produced by YTV Alternative Productions (and later YTV Family) and NickFamily Studios for the Canadian YTV Family and American NFGaming networks. The series was YTV Alternative Productions' first and only series aimed at the gaming community, rather than an adult audience. The series premiered in Canada on July 19th, 2017, followed by the US premiere on July 20th, 2017.

On November 10th, 2019, Aura staff emailed to the creators of the series in advance that the series would come to an end in 2020. Filming of the main series wrapped on that same date, with a television movie beginning filming on November 12th and wrapping in March 2020. Despite this, the movie's airdate, originally set for spring 2020, was delayed to July 2020 as a result of the 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic.

In Wales, the series has been sold to GTV, but due to GTV's rebrand as Disney Channel, Disney XD began to bid for the rights to the series in November 2017. However, due to Disney XD announcing that most of its first-run acquisitions would move to Disney Channel, it was decided that the Welsh run would remain on Disney Channel.

In Australia and New Zealand, the series premiered on Nickelodeon Family on August 12th, 2017.

In July 2018, the series became the first NFGaming original series to air in syndication on the United States Nickelodeon Family.
