TeleAmerica

TeleAmerica is an American television channel that launched on August 1st, 2018, replacing Cartoon Network XD in the United States. Initially, the channel broadcast animated programming during the mornings, with a mostly live-action lineup for the rest of the day. However, in September 2018, the channel began to drift towards animation, similar to the channel it replaced. This was followed by the channel announcing that due to failing to reach an audience, their original series would gradually move to Aura (for live-action series) and AuraToons (for animation) starting in November 2018 and lasting through March 2019, after which seven new original series would premiere in their place. However, it was announced that all of TeleAmerica's series to be burned off would instead air their final new episodes on Aura's 7PM primetime slot.
==History==
In early 2018, Aura Xtreme Networks entered Chapter 7 bankruptcy and sold off its assets to other subsidiaries of Curiousgorge66 Studios, mainly Nickelodeon Family Networks, USA and Aura International. Meanwhile, Aura re-negotiated its deal with WarnerMedia, in which they would continue to receive shared broadcast rights for certain series; however, the new deal required that any branding licenses for WarnerMedia-owned brands be void by the end of 2018.
Over summer 2018, it was announced that Cartoon Network XD was to be re-launched as TeleAmerica in August 2018. The channel eventually launched on August 1st, 2018.
In October 2018, it was evaluated that the new channel's original series failed in the ratings. Several NickFamily Studios producers have stated that the channel was "only a few days older than the former Cable Music Channel, yet we're already pulling the shows and putting them on the more established Aura". Axiom Entertainment is currently interested in purchasing the rights to TeleAmerica Music Competition, which would get a rename if the sale is finalized.
At midnight on October 3rd, 2018, it was announced that Aura Television Productions has ordered 7 new series for the network, to replace those that were moving to Aura and AuraToons.
In late 2019, citing that TeleAmerica is planned to be one of the channels merged into AuraRW, with the reasoning being that Aura operates too many rerun-only networks, it was announced that any remaining TeleAmerica original on the network (excluding the TeleAmerica Music Competition, which would be sold to a new organization) would gradually move to Aura proper.
In December 2020, Aura announced that due to putting their focus on Nickelodeon Family's branding refresh at the time, they were calling off the AuraRW launch and putting the channel spaces of both TeleAmerica and Aura Retro up for sale. At the same time, TeleAmerica cancelled all of its original series, with the exception of TeleAmerica Music Competition, whose rights would also be sold off. The final episodes would be burned-off on Aura.
