==History==
In 2009, toy manufacturer and multimedia company Hasbro announced that it would be forming a joint venture with Discovery Communications to relaunch Discovery Kids as a new family-oriented television channel, paying $300 million for 50% ownership of the network. Under the arrangement, Discovery would be in charge of handling advertising sales and distribution for the new service, while Hasbro would be involved in acquiring and producing programming. While educational series (including those carried over from Discovery Kids) were slated to be maintained on the schedule, plans called for new original programs based on Hasbro-owned franchises such as G.I. Joe, My Little Pony, Transformers and game shows adapted from its board game brands. Discovery Communications was looking for a business partner to draw the improved types of advertisers on the channel. In October 10, 2010, The Hub is launched replacing Discovery Kids, launch programming included the game show Family Game Night, animated television series Pound Puppies, My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic – a new animated entry in the My Little Pony franchise developed by Lauren Faust, and Strawberry Shortcake Shortcake: Berry Bitty Adventures – a new animated entry in The Strawberry Shortcake Franchise, aside from original Hasbro content, they also aired classic Warner Bros content like Batman, Animaniacs, and Tiny Toon Adventures. In October 13, 2014, Hub Network is relaunched to Discovery Family, focusing on broadcasting content for all audiences, annexing Discovery Channel series. In 2019, Discovery announced the return of the brand, The Hub Network, and that it would start broadcasting in the second quarter of 2020, although due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the relaunch was postponed until August 30, 2021. Discovery Family closes broadcasts with an episode of Pirata and Capitano, and The Hub Network returns to the air airing the first episode of the Animaniacs revival.
