4Kids TV: The Game Station

4KidsTV: The Game Station (stylized as 4K!DS TV: THE GAME STATION) is an American digital cable and satellite television channel that serves as the flagship property of 4Kids Entertainment. Serving as the 2014 revival of the namesake block, it follows the launch of sister network FOX's Xploration Station block, acquiring the assets of the Weekend Marketplace block, to avoid 10-hour commercial breaks.

The channel consists of children/family-friendly third-party foreign animated and live-action television series, movies and TV specials, and as well as some original programs. It is also available on its official website, cables such as Time Warner Cable, and Comcast Cable (Xfinity), connected devices like smart TVs, video-on-demand providers, etc., and as well as an app.

It is aimed at both female and male viewers, and its target audience is kids ages 6-7 and up.

History
On November 7, 2014, Fox aired a teaser to celebrate the successful plans for a revival of the now-closed 4Kids block, announcing that the block would be relaunched as a standalone TV channel, known as 4KidsTV: The Game Station. This was due to the announcement via Twitter that the 4KidsTV block would be revived as a channel to be a sister network to Fox. Later, the launch date for the channel was proclaimed to be November 15, 2014, with the first show being ''Transformers: Rescue Bots. ''

4KidsTV: The Game Station debuted on November 15, 2014 at 2:18 a.m. EST, with the Transformers: Rescue Bots episode, Hotshots, being its first TV series. With the discontinuation of the two-hour paid programming block Weekend Marketplace, the channel acquired its assets to avoid too many commercials when it has its very first commercial break.

In May 2015, FOX announced that 4KidsTV: The Game Station would earn additional content for its successful launch. Slated were several programming blocks, a evening block, a Saturday morning block, and a prime time block. Viva Piñata, Biker Mice from Mars, Cubix, RollBots, and Chaotic were planned as new programs for 4KidsTV: The Game Station. These programs plus those from the now-closed Toonzai block would total ten or more hours of acquired programming. At this time, FOX planned on adding two or three series per year. 4KidsTV: The Game Station was to have its first 2-hour commercial break, meaning that the network would return to its program after the break. A branded interactive club was also part of the plan, with channels working it into their existing club or beginning a new club and branding it how they would like to.

With one half of FOX stations affiliating with the network and one fourth needed on August 14, 2015, the content was installed. FOX concealed the possibility to extract the content. Stations found that the sliding scale licensing fees were high enough what little exclusive programming they received, especially after spending additional funds for the FOX HD feed.
