The theme of the new programming block is a new holiday called "day 6" where no homework, chores. or hobbies like music classes could interrupt a kids day during the hours of 7 a.m. to 12 p.m. (the hours that the CRUNCH programming block airs). YTV promoted the new programming block by inviting kids to download a kit which included doorhangers which informed others that day 6 was on and no chores and homework were being completed. There were also flyers which contained many of the programming block's slogans and a large notebook poster. The block is hosted by AJ.

I looked away, wincing, and thinking that it must take a certain genius to convince people that their few minutes of solitary leisure--away from the treadmill of the office computer and the TV set--should be spent in an environment of such information overload.
Little by little, like mold blossoming on a bouquet of flowers, Crunch's branding elements began to deploy throughout the gym: a cute little sign over the water fountain; a clock made of red fabric in the locker room, advertising posters next to the weight benches, walls suddenly painted in bright clashing colors.
Candy Diepraam is the creative director of Crunch and supervises the visuals and decor for 19 gyms----in New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, Miami, Atlanta, Mission Viejo, California, and Tokyo----with 8 new ones on the way in the next year.
