The name or term "Hub" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Hub (disambiguation).
Beware of programming manager Liege Maximo.

The Hub, previously known as the Hasbro-Discovery Communications Joint Venture Network, is a cable television network in the United States owned by the Hasbro-Discovery Communications Joint Venture[1]. It began broadcasting October 10, 2010, replacing the channel formerly known as Discovery Kids.

The Hub is the outlet for the Transformers: Prime, My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic and G.I. Joe: Renegades cartoons. In the 2011-12 season, Rescue Bots will join the network's line-up. Its management team is headed up by Margaret Loesch, a veteran of the Transformers brand who worked on the original cartoon, which airs weeknights on the channel.

Currently, Loesch and The Hub's senior Vice President of advertising sales Brooke Goldstein are negotiating with Hasbro's rival Mattel in an attempt to get the world's biggest toy company to buy advertising spots on the Hasbro-owned network.[2]

Hub broadcasts of the original cartoon are placed in the "Huboom!" programming block.
