Discovery
Kids was an American digital cable specialty channel owned by Discovery
Communications that broadcast television programming for education of children.
It was launched on October 7, 1996. Discovery Kids aired programming for
children with an emphasis on real-life adventures, nature, science and wildlife
from all over the world. It has since been reformed and rebranded into Hub
Network (at that time called "The Hub").
In
2002, Discovery Kids began airing its first reality television show entitled
Endurance. The show is similar in nature to Survivor, whereby teams compete in
exotic locales (such as Hawaii and Tehachapi). The last first-run episode aired
on March 8, 2008.
On
October 10, 2010, Discovery Kids showed its last program at 6:00 am ET (3:00 am
PT), a four-hour marathon of Kenny the Shark, before it was replaced with Hub
Network at 10:00 am ET (7:00 am PT). Kenny the Shark was also one of a few
Discovery Kids programs to be part of Hub Network's schedule until it was
removed on March 26, 2012.
Discovery
Kids has had a Spanish language audio track through SAP since 2006.
Discovery
Kids broadcast a Saturday morning E/I programming lineup for children, which
replaced TNBC, called Discovery Kids on NBC, which ran from September 14, 2002
until September 2, 2006, when NBC ended the partnership and created a new E/I
block called Qubo.
