Vortexx!

Vortexx! is an American children's programming digital cable and satellite television channel that is owned by Time Warner, and originally CBS Corporation too while programmed by Saban Brands. Vortexx! originally was a children's programming block that aired on the CW, airing on May 8th, 2016. It was made into its own channel on November 13th, 2017.

Origin
The original Vortexx was cancelled on September 27, 2014, being replaced by the One Magnificent Morning block on the CW. The latter block was moved to the evening years after the cancellation of Vortexx, and became One Magnificent Evening. The extra time slots allowed for the Vortexx to come back on May 8th, 2016 but this time as a reboot.

The 4K Acquisition (a subsidiary of Konami) had owned the rights to Yu-Gi-Oh! franchise, while Kidsco Media Ventures (a subsidiary of Saban Brands) had purchased the rights for all of the other 4Kids Entertainement assets. Saban Brands had willingly chose to fill that time slot with a reboot of the Vortexx, leading to its birth.

March 15th, 2016, an announcement was made that a new block will come on the CW; Vortexx!

As a Block
Vortexx! had debuted on May 8th, 2016, airing on the Sunday morning (and later on all other weekends) from 7am to 12pm. On the weekdays, the block aired from 4pm to 6pm. The block aired on all time zones, with a broadcast delay outside of the Eastern Time Zone.

Vortexx! had retained all of its older programming, minus the Yu-Gi-Oh! franchise. A few TV shows had made their debut on the block, mainly: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle (2012 series), Yo-Kai Watch, and Beyblade.

As a Channel
Vortexx! had become very popular due to being one of the few blocks focusing on animated programs. It had received praise due to the higher quality shows the block had, such as The Spectacular Spider-Man, Batman: the Animated Series, Justice League, and other varieties of shows. The block had gained enough success that it turned into its own spin-off channel.

Vortexx! was seen as a successor to Kids' WB, Fox Kids, and other channels and Warner Bros. saw this as the opportunity to take advantage of the success they've had. Vortexx! turned into a 24/7 channel, with blocks similar to Cartoon Network and other channels, and a Toonami block was made for the night time for more mature shows.

4K Acquisition decided to partner with Vortexx!, which had finally gained the Yu-Gi-Oh! franchise. Many older TV shows, namely shows by Disney and Fox, were brought onto Vortexx! too though they were much harder to get. Older Warner Bros. Animation shows were also broadcasted on Vortexx!.
