Youtube is fantastic for acquiring content and it's super easy with a program like 4K VideoDownloader. Make your own collections.
Regarding kids, I'm not sure if it is good or bad to have multiple viewings of favourite episodes. I know myself ( I assume it's my OCD) that allows me to watch the same things dozens of times and collect it, while others are one and out.
It's great to have programs such as this but kids have to be exposed and hardened to other things as well. They should be ready for the first bus ride to school and meeting and dealing with the kid who wasn't raised on Mister Rogers. It's a fine balance.
I'll keep an eye out for those programs and let you know if I find anything.

My kids are older now but when they were younger it seemed like a huge percentage of the programming on channels like Teletoon was high energy, loud hyperactive content.

I mean, I know for sure we had our share of this stuff too when were kids (Roadrunner was very violent for example) but geez... some of that stuff today seems like constant screaming from the characters.
