You Can't Do That on Television is a Canadian television program that first aired locally in 1979 before airing internationally in 1981.

The show was produced by and aired on Ottawa's CTV station CJOH-TV. After production ended in 1990, the show continued in reruns on Nickelodeon through 1994, when it was replaced with the similar All That.
