My frustrations with Network Executives as finally reached it's breaking point. And it was Litton Entertainment,of all companies,that did it.
The Dog Whisperer,the ONLY thing worth watching on Litton Entertainment's Lameass One Magnificent Morning Block,has been taken off the air. Yes,the Only good show on Saturday Mornings is gone.
Litton's One Magnificent Morning was the Least Lame of their various Program Blocks and now Litton decided that Caesar Milan was just too cool for them,so they took him off the air. With the Dog Whisperer off of Saturday Mornings,One Magnificent Morning is as unwatchable as Litton's other program blocks.
Litton,what you did was a disgraceful act. The Dog Whisperer was the highest rated show on ANY if your lameass blocks,and now,you ditched it. And what did they replace it with? More Lameass Shows that fit in with the rest of their crap! Y'know,something,Litton,You guys are WORSE than 4Kids Entertainment! Yeah,You Read Right! At least 4Kids Had some decent programing. Sure they were in the minority,but they existed.
For this stupid and unforgivable act,Litton Entertainment. You. Just. Made. The. LIST!!!!!!
While on this topic,let's talk a little bit about the Virus known as The Children's Television Act! The very Thing that paved the way for Litton's hostile takeover of Saturday Morning TV in the first place.
Before,I go further,here's a little info on it: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulations_on_children%27s_television_programming_in_the_United_States#Children's_Television_Act
At first the effects of this Law weren't even felt,in fact from 1990 - 2005,SatAM TV was pretty good and the very few Educational Shows that Did air were entertaining (and sometimes cool).
But as time went on,the Law's effect was felt. And in conjunction with the ever evolving stupidity of Network Executives,the Law hit Americans Hard,Very Very Hard. The CTA was used by Network Executives to destroy not just Saturday Morning Entertainment,but Sunday Morning and Weekday Afternoon Entertainment as well.
We desperately need a revival of SatAM TV (and kids/family tv in general). Hasbro,You're Our Only Hope! Create your own stand alone TV Network and give The Other Big 3 and Litton a run for their money. You have the shows and resorces. So Get To It,Guys!
Until next time,See Ya Space Cowboys!

I agree with your statement. Unfortunately, it isn't easy, especially with the FCC pulling the strings on Litton and every, other edutainment company everywhere, especially Steve Rotfeld Productions. But as long as Hasbro is stuck in Discovery Land, the chances for a channel similar to the Hub are slim to none.
How ironic. This week is the 5th anniversary of the Hub and, sadly, the 4th unhappy anniversary of Discovery Family. This is indeed a trying time for a fan of nostalgia.
Yeah,it's heartbreaking that The Hub didn't last more then 5 years. :(
