The Hub moves premieres of Transformers, GI Joe and other schedule changes

[Takao]

From Nickandmore, this Saturday there will be some schedule changes to The Hub's programming:

The Hub is moving premiere episodes of Transformers Prime, G.I. Joe Renegades and Hubworld to Saturdays, instead of their previous Friday premiere timeslots.
Hubworld will air new episodes on Saturdays at 4 p.m. ET starting April 9. Transformers Prime will have premiere episodes on Saturdays at 7 p.m. ET starting April 9 as well. G.I. Joe Renegades will return with premieres on Saturdays at 7:30 p.m. ET starting April 16.


In other programming news for The Hub, R.L. Stine’s The Haunting Hour: The Series will have a mini-marathon on Friday, April 15 from 5 – 7 p.m. ET. My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic will also have a mini-marathon on Saturday, April 16 from 9 – 11 a.m. ET.


Pound Puppies will lose its Monday 2 p.m. ET repeat timeslot starting April 18. Given the show’s only aired 7 episodes, I’d say it’s a good move. Fraggle Rock, which airs on Tuesday-Thursday in the same slot, will replace it.

I have no clue on the competition for Saturday evenings, but Saturday is usually a poor ratings night for most networks.

Probably figured it was stupid to try and compete against Clone Wars and co.

Good move, now their only competition is... Scooby Doo which is a completely different market from action shows.

Oh okay, new episodes for Prime on Saturdays. Good, I'm looking forward to them.

Doesn't really matter for me, considering that my first watch of both of those shows were always the Saturday repeats that lead up to Dan Vs.

Glad to see we will be seeing new episodes of the shows next month and they aren't broadcasting them overseas like Avengers.

Well Transformers was really only competing with Batman: The Brave and the Bold at 6:30PM EST but it's just as well they move it to prime time on Saturday same with G.I. Joe. If they air right before Dan Vs., all the better.

Now if they would just air My Little Pony in a few later afternoon or evening slots.
