IME Qube

**IME Qube** (Known from launch until 30 October 2022 as the IME Family Channel) is one of two custom British free-to-air channels, run by Harry Humble. It originally launched in 2018.

## About

IME Qube is a full widescreen and high-def channel that airs programming from the CWP International/IME catalogue, like *Mayday51's TV Burp, Mario Toys Family Super Star, Winnie the Pooh Toys Family, Post 16 Adventures, Care Bears: Care Along, Humble Toys Family* and so much more.

The channel also airs many gameshows including edited repeats of *BrainTeaser* (abit to Harry's dislike to the show), alongside a pre-school block that runs every day from 6:00am-9:00am called IME Preschool. In 2020, a children's weekday morning block "Bright Breakfast" premiered featuring many cartoons and an exclusive mascot host, Olly the Duck. The following year, it moved to Comedy Extra in order for IME Preschool to move over after IME Play restructured to focus exclusively on cartoons full time.

On October 31, 2022, IME Family Channel rebranded as IME Qube, to coincide with a focus on more original programming. The launch coinsided with the premiere of two brand new original shows - Humble Toys Family Unleashed!, a reboot of the IME original series *Humble Toys Family* and a reboot of *Oscar Barnett's TV Burp*. A new original series - Legends of Caring, will premiere in September.

## Programmes

The Saturday schedule on IME Qube focuses on families, with a weekly Saturday movie airing during the afternoon, and brand new episodes of *Legends of Caring*. Reruns of *Oscar Barnett's TV Burp* and *Muppets Tonight* reruns highlight the evening, with the later additions of *Big Star's Little Star* and *Keep It in the Family*.

Weekdays focus on a wide range of programmes, with daily Brainteaser reruns at lunchtime, and the teatime slot accompanied with reruns of *Zorro*, *Sweet Valley High*, *Pointless, The New Addams Family* and *The Muppet Show*. *Who's Doing the Dishes?* will soon be added.

The Sunday schedule mostly focus on a wide variety of shows, mainly broadcasts of material acquired from The Jim Henson Company.
