Yey! (stylized as YeY! or YEY!) was a Philippine children's pay television channel created by ABS-CBN and one of the freemium channels of ABS-CBN TVplus.[1][2][3] Yey! was the second animation channel of ABS-CBN after Hero TV (defunct), a cable channel owned by ABS-CBN's narrowcast arm Creative Programs. Yey! channel primarily aired Filipino-dubbed Japanese anime series and foreign cartoon shows, along with limited imported programming from ABS-CBN's main channel and Hero TV. Yey! operated from 6:00 AM to 12:00 MN from Mondays to Sundays.

Yey! channel permanently ceased broadcasting on the night of June 30, 2020 (Mega Manila) and July 1, 2020 (outside Mega Manila) due to the alias cease-and-desist order (ACDO) issued by the National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) and Solicitor General Jose Calida against ABS-CBN TV Plus.[4]
