If you have Discovery Kids in your digital cable/satellite package, then you’ll have The Hub, because that’s what they’re replacing. It’s going to be in over 60 million households and looking pretty damned good from what I’ve read about it as well as the talented, capable people in charge of the network, which launches on October 10, 2010. 10/10/10.

The people at the panel tried to explain it was not so much a retcon, but a “before you knew them”, or a “year-one”. To me that means this series would happen before Resolute, not contradict it.

nice to see gijoe back animated for thought resolute was cool. as for jinx the execs did state she does show up on the show. though hate that they keep changing the gijoe toy line to match before one can finish trying to complete a line of characters. plus no polly for the new show.

Hmmmm. Not sure how I feel about this retcon. I really enjoyed Resolute because it kept the visuals of the old series, but updated the violence/maturity of the story. If they change much of that, we might be crossing over into Sigma Six territory.

It has been leaked that the original voices of Duke and Scarlet, Michael Bell and B.J. Ward have a cameo in Renegades as the voices of Dukes parents. I have not got any other conformations at this time

Yeah exactly what’s the point of POC? “Here’s the peg warmers for a while before we switch to yet another new direction”. I’m not complaining about the POC figures, they look fantastic but it is a little odd.

As far as the cartoon is concerned, who is even going to have Hub on their cable network? I wonder if it will be on a pay tier like Boomerang and Disney Kids is for me?

Maybe girl ninjas means we can finally get an updated Jinx!

Cool! I loved both the Sunbow and DIC cartoons even though they were worlds apart. I really liked Resolute. I’m thinking this Year One treatment will go over just as well. I just find it funny that the Pursuit of Cobra line hasn’t been released yet and it’s already being replaced with the new cartoon theme for 2011. LOL.
