The HUB(Formerly Discovery Kids) has 80's and 90's goodness

**HordakQuack** · October 12, 2010, 12:00am

Transformers G1 just started!

**Count Marzo** · October 12, 2010, 12:03am

Best channel in years!

**BCreviews4628** · October 12, 2010, 01:20am

Man, just Watched Batman, Transformers, then G.I.Joe! I'm in love with my tv now!

I can't wait for tomarrow night haha

**Sorceress** · October 12, 2010, 04:20am

This channel is the best ever. I wish it was out here on Australian cable.

**Brian Ozone** · October 12, 2010, 11:46am

Really they should just make a batman network already.

**Grimbot** · October 12, 2010, 12:52pm

And now there's 7 versions of Transformers cartoon (Broadcast, F.H.E, G2, Sci-fi channel, Rhino, Shout!, Hub):
-Hub:

-DVD:

-F.H.E (fairly similar to broadcast):

Wish they'd stop cutting the damn picture to make a fake widescreen picture. It's bad as making a widescreen picture to be a fake fullscreen.

The HUB is being pushed big time, while I was sorting books today at the library I saw the latest issue of Advertising Age (national magazing about advertising). The entire front cover is devoted to The Hub

**teepop** · October 12, 2010, 03:44pm

So far, I LOVE it! I cannot wait to see what other retro shows they add down the line!

**Count Marzo** · October 12, 2010, 04:39pm

I can't say enough good things about this channel. I've been telling everyone about it.

I just love the feel to this channel. It just has that wholesome feel to it like most channels did back in the day. Absolutely love the classic 80s cartoons and kids shows. Really, really enjoy the classic 70s and 80s sitcoms later in the primetime hours like Family Ties, Wonder Years, Happy Days, etc...

Even the new stuff is good on this channel and I don't EVER say that about anything.

I'm really diggin the gameshows based on Hasbro board games and such.

EVEN (yet again!) the commercials are awesome! It has the feel of an old school channel in the 80s but with their newer product. I saw a commercial today on there for a 2010 version of Alphie the little learning robot thing and I just about crapped my pants since I barely remembered having one of those things back in the early 80s.

I so love this channel we have been recording a ton of the cartoons, (Not GI Joe or Transformers due to owning the deluxe boxed sets) but others like MIB etc, also recording the Wonder Years, Family Ties, Doogie, Batman (60's) besides the sickening incomplete end credits, has anyone noticed if there are any other edits?

**HordakQuack** · October 12, 2010, 11:53pm

I've just been DVRing a lot of shows, even though I have the DVDs too, but maybe it'll help the ratings even a little.

**Hobby One Kenobi** · October 13, 2010, 07:43am

This channel has been awesome since day one & they will only get better as they move along, just wish Batman, GI Joe, & Transformers had better time slots.

I know....I usually have to sleep for work the next morning, so I'd have to miss them.

We see toy and game commercials! I love this channel! I hope they get some of those Marvel Shows on. Inhumanoids too!

Last I checked Marvel shows were all owned by Disney and thus will only show on Toon Disney (or whatever its called now I think Disney XD)

**bskcase** · October 13, 2010, 10:56am

I love watching the old Adam West Batman Show. It still rocks.

**griffen112182** · October 14, 2010, 02:23am

well ther are supposed to be new Thor and Captain America(?) cartoons. I haven't heard were they are supposed to go yet so this place is an option since Hasbro produces Marvel's and Hasbro owns the channel.

Also Iron Man armored adventures is supposed to get a second season as well but they stopped airing it on Nicktoon network so maybe they are moving it here or Disney XD.

Also wished they would do more with Wolverine and the X-men, they were about to get to the "Age of Apcolyps"(SP?) storyline.

**ICER** · October 19, 2010, 08:55pm

I agree with all of you!

I really like that the T.F. and G.I.Joe have there original bumpers.

**vadersfist** · October 20, 2010, 04:49am

I am sooooooooooo loving this channel myself and I am DVR'n Transformers g1,GI Joe,Fraggle Rock. I think they can keep the NEW TF show that is coming out cause I say the heck with that show and the new GI Joe, I just want my ol TF G1 cartoon and my ol GI Joe cartoon. I can almost bet when the NEW TF ANIMATED show comes on they will def push that and might take off G1 TF which I would be sad about if they did, which I perfer that they don't even show the new TF animated show cause I've seen bits and pieces of the art and it sucks bad as its just like the movie stuff which I am starting to really dislike alot. I also love the idea they brought Fraggle rock back and are showing alot of the first season which I really love but they cut the end credits on the show which I really hate.

I'm with you on that.I'll be really glad when they stop running T.Swift on every commercial!

**Man-E-Toys** · October 20, 2010, 11:22pm
