It doesn't surprise me that when people talk about CITV, it's usually from like mere decades ago, and the audience this is meant to be aimed at couldn't care less, since they probably aren't watching CITV in the first place and I strongly doubt those audiences even use ITVX in the first place.
Says a lot when ITV relied heavily on junk food promotions in the 2000s and are now realising making original programming for it is expensive, so instead are relying on imports from Cartoon Network. Speaking of, if I'm being honest, the closure of CITV might result in WBD (owners of CN) taking the slot and replacing it with Boing, their FTA offering internationally, or Nickelodeon swoops in to move into FTA but all of these are just speculation and reality might just be it's slot being used for a time shift ITV service.
