Discovery Force

Discovery Force Channel (formerly Discovery Force Network) is an American pay television channel co-owned by Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) in USA & InfinityOne Comics Entertainment, a division subsidiary of CJ ENM (a part of the CJ Group) in South Korea. The channel is geared towards children aged 7 to 11, and broadcasts reruns of original animated series from sister network Nickelodeon (known as Nicktoons) along with some other animated shows and feature films.

Discovery Communications launched Discovery Kids Channel on October 7, 1996, as part of a suite of four new digital cable channels that included Discovery Travel & Living Network, Discovery Civilization Network, and Discovery Science Network. Upon its launch, the channel primarily offered adventure, nature, and science-themed programs aimed towards a children's audience between ages 6 and 11. Marjorie Kaplan, the network's senior vice president, explained that the creation of Discovery Kids Channel was influenced primarily by kids, who were watching its parent network's programming together with their parents.

From 1996 to 2000, Discovery Kids Channel was carried by only a select few cable television providers. In 2001, the channel was shortened to Discovery Kids and late in that year, it was carried in at least 15 million homes. In September 2001, a Canadian version of Discovery Kids was launched in partnership with Corus Entertainment.

In October 2001, It has to rename its then current operations under a television channel brand, called Discovery Toons.

In December 2001, Discovery Toons announced a partnership with Fox, in which it would produce a new Saturday morning block for the network known as Discovery Toons on Fox, beginning in September 2002. The block, which replaced a teen-oriented block consisting only of sitcoms, featured programming that met the educational programming guidelines from the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC), including new original series (such as the reality television series Endurance), existing Discovery Toons programming, along with children's spin-offs of programs from sister networks, such as Animal Planet, Discovery Kids, and Discovery Channel.
