Hasbro and Get After It Media to Launch OTA and FAST "Hasbro Legends" Network

[RandomMe]

I believe it replaced the master feed for Rev'n which was merged with The Action Channel a few months ago to become Rev'n Action after which was broadcasting as 2 dedicate channel until Hasbro Legends launched.

Now I understand why the EPG still said REV'N.

RabbitEars has now been updated with a list of Over-the-air (OTA) TV Stations airing Hasbro Legends. As of right now it's just the Get After It Media (GAIM) owned and operated (O&O) stations. Note: RabbitEars list of Stations may not be complete. We will have to wait for Get After It Media to release an official list of Stations to have a complete list.

What's the episode schedule? Anyone want to help me with this?

Does anyone know if OTA means basic antenna tv? I want to try and find the channel but don't know where to begin. I get MeTV Toons via local affiliates, but really want to watch Hasbro Legends (currently on the 4th season of MLP: FIM, so being to watch that on my TV will feel like watching it on the Hub again in 2013.

Yes, OTA (Over-the-air) mean free TV with an Antenna. Here is the list of TV Stations that broadcast Hasbro Legends. https://www.rabbitears.info/search.php?request=network_search&network=Hasbro+Legends

Also, My Little Pony is not currently on the schedule. The original My Little Pony (from the 80s) is featured in the promo for the network and has been on the FAST (Free Advertisement Supported Streaming) version of the Channel before, it will will likely show up on the schedule at some point in the future. Not sure about the other My Little Pony series.

Oh man. Not in my area. Fingers crossed it gets expanded down the line. Honestly I'm not sure why we are suddenly seeing these channels pop up (first MeTV Toons, next Hasbro Legends) but I'm not complaining. I know there have been rumors circulating that Nick might return to CBS, since the last time we had it was in 2006 and if that is the case, then yeah it's gonna feel like the 2000s all over again and I love that!

It may be just as well, at least for right now. It's a little frustrating that Hasbro (or...whoever) still hasn't re-released the "...'n Friends" segments (Glo Friends, Potato Head Kids, Moon Dreamers). If the original show were to come to this network, I would hope they could show the complete original "My Little Pony 'n Friends", with the original commercial bumpers (the same way the other shows have been released), the original recap segments, the original closing credit sequences, the "My Little Pony 'n Friends" intros, obviously, and most of all, the complete versions of the multi-part episodes that don't cut off the "To be continued" parts.

Not only that, but can we please bring back the original half-hour versions of the original two specials? Yes, this would mean having two different versions of the specials, but still.

I'm sorry if this post sounds like a rant, but the syndicated rerun versions of the MLP segments (which once aired on The Disney Channel in the U.S.) have been the only versions available for too long now. I truly hope that Hasbro can put the show back together again so it can be shown on this new network. Another show that could be brought back is the original Littlest Pet Shop from 1995 (animated by C&D, the same company that made the rest of Conan the Adventurer after the first season)...

I wonder if they'll air M.A.S.K., and I mean include the second season as well.

It's not part of the Hasbro catalog. The first season comes from Fremantle Media (last I checked, anyway), while the second season (the "racing" season) is part of the DIC catalog itself, so it comes directly from WildBrain. C.O.P.S. (as in "Central Organization of Police Specialists"), and Maxie's World are also part of the DIC catalog, even though Claster Television distributed both. The only thing this network can expect to have from DIC is the second series of G.I.Joe (the one with the new theme song, and the live-action Sgt. Slaughter segments), since that's part of the Hasbro catalog.

And just to be sure, Centurions, Challenge of the Go-Bots, Lazer Tag Academy, and the 86-87 Pound Puppies are owned by WBD so they cant air on here too, right?

The GoBots toys are not made by Hasbro nor do they own the rights to the series.

They were made by Tonka, who was later bought by Hasbro, so the GoBots name is owned by Hasbro. They once used the name for a preschool Transformers line released by the Playskool division. However, the GoBots TV show ("Challenge of the...") is part of the Hanna-Barbera catalog, so yeah, Hasbro Legends would have to talk to Warner Bros..

Fun fact: Tonka first released the GoBots toys in 1983, one year before Hasbro debuted you-know-what, although Hasbro's toyline got their own show before the other one did.

I think the network wont launch on July 2, because they may want to avoid launching on July 4 holiday week. I think July 6 is a great launch date.

It already launched last Wednesday on Get After It Media's owned-and-operated stations.
