What if Paris Filmes was founded in 1923/Paris Animações was founded in 1989?/Gloob

Gloob is an American pay television channel owned by Paris Filmes. The channel was launched on September 10th, 1996 and is aimed mainly at children and young teenagers between the ages of 5 to 12. Its programming consists of original first-run television series, theatrically-released and home media-exclusive movies and select other third-party programming. The channel's slogan is "Everything comes out of Gloob".
== History ==
In 1995, Gloob was licensed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) after a related application for a channel to be called "Kidz Klub" had been denied. The channel was launched on September 10, 1996, with The Scooby-Doo Show being the first program to air.
On December 21, 1997, the network aired its first Christmas special, A Charlie Brown Christmas, and has continued to air specials for certain holidays since then.
In 1999, following DiC Entertainment and Hallmark Cards divesting their interests in Gloob, the channel was converted into a spinoff of Comedy Central, as both channels were owned by Viacom and Time Warner (through Comedy Partners) during that time.
When Time Warner backed out of Comedy Partners in 2003, a new company was formed called Gloob Partners, which started as a joint venture between Viacom (1951-2005), Mutual Broadcasting-Cinemark Theaters and AOL Time Warner. In 2017, MBS Corp and Discovery Communications joined the consortium of companies that own Paris Filmes. 
=== Ownership ===
When launched, the channel was originally owned by a consortium made up of various other 90's American specialty services and producers: Nickelodeon acting as managing partner at 53.3% (Viacom), Cartoon Network at 26.7% (Turner Broadcasting System), DiC Entertainment, and Hallmark Cards with 10% each.﻿
In 1999, DiC and Hallmark withdrew from the consortium, making Gloob a 50/50 joint venture between Viacom and Time Warner.
