Exactly. And as the cable transponder space filled up, there was less and less room for new channels, especially on the lower tiers.
NBCU launched Chiller from scratch in 2007, and they peaked in 2012 with almost 43 million homes.
Nickelodeon had almost 100 million during that same time period.

Hell, they wandered their ways into KidsCo and Sprout by total accident, the former in their acquisition of Sparrowhawk and the latter when they got bought out by Comcast.
Hell, that’s also how they got their one success in the global kids TV market, when they bought… well, guess.

Yeah, UFEN was largely a behind the scenes name, they didn’t bother putting anything up front. Not to mention only two shows, one per year.
Though if they wanted a logo, a similarly named division of theirs might have had the answer…

Hell, I thought of the perfect name for one launching sometime in the 2000s. Obviously inspired by Universal Orlando’s former kids area…

They’ve been trying to break into the kids network business as far back as the 90s, and somehow none of them seemed to take off.

And that's just the launch lineup. They later added Sonic, Digimon, Transformers, Spider-Man, and they even aired the Tiny Toons Halloween special twice.
Also, they had their own cereal. (It's atually just Cheerios but still.)

There's also elements from the sequels and Decade:
- The Space Sheriffs are new forms of the VR Troopers
- The Showa Riders are from Edenoi and don't like Earthlings using Edenoi-based technology (which allows for non-Grid morphing)
- Decade is also from Edenoi, sent to destroy the Earth Riders

If that sounds like more of a Kamen Rider thing it's an idea I had for a potential Super Hero Taisen adaptation seeing a battle between the Grid-connected "Rangers" and non-connected "Riders" (which also includes non-Ranger Saban heroes like... the VR Troopers)

Did you know? Fox Family Channel was rumored to air more shows before launch that never made it to air, specifically shows Saban was airing in syndication at the time- including X-Men and Dragon Ball Z, of all shows.
