Way to go Hub!! Bench your best shows!!!!
It's because of TF Prime and Renegades that people are even talking or KNOW about this new channel.
BIG MISTAKE HASBRO!!!!
This NEW Channel will be pulled out of television BEFORE they even air TF Prime and Renegades.

It'd be nice if TF: Prime episodes were put up online for free like the Clone Wars episodes are on SW.com.

It seems really weird to me that they're launching the new channel with little to no fanfare. By this I mean they're barely advertising it (I watch a lot of TV, I haven't really noticed anything).
Beyond that, they're not even rolling out their biggest two shows (TF: Prime and G.I.Joe: Renegades...as if you didn't know) at the launch to help create buzz for the channel!
I guess this is why they were hiring a new PR guy. The old one sucked!

Guess there's no news about this broacasting in Canada yet? The line up doesn't look half bad. I remember Batman Beyond, that was an amazing show

I have seen a few commercials about it (I have 2 young sons, so I watch a bit of kids TV), and they are announcing it right here! I have to bet there is the same Press Release thread in the Joe forums, and, assuming they exist, the MLP, tonka, etc. sites. I'm sure there will be ads in parents and other magazines this month too.
Check out my sales thread, plenty of Generations, and Reveal the Shield figures for sale!!
