By the early 2000s, they started to produce their own shows alongside the acquired ones, which also included animated programming. These programs ranged from {{Edutainment Show}}s targeted at children to pre-teen or teen-oriented programming that still taught life-lessons. Both of these programs were split into two {{Kids Block}}s, both launched in 2003: The first one, ''Ready Set Learn'', hosted by Paz the Penguin, aimed to teach kids valuable life-lessons; the second one, ''Real Toons'', was more action-oriented, but still gave lessons to its audience. The preschool shows were aired on the former block, while the tween/teen-centric shows aired on the latter.

On a darker note, The Hub was infamous for making the videos hosted on its website an ugly case of NoExportForYou. They have pinned the blame on Hasbro Studios' international licensing deals with other networks including: Turner Broadcasting (of Cartoon Network and Boomerang) in some countries, Lagardère Active (of Canal J, Tiji and Guili) in France, Tiny Pop in the UK, Nelonen (and Fox for ''WesternAnimation/TransformersPrime'') in Finland, Hasbro's licensing partners in Japan (Takara Tomy for ''Transformers Prime'' and Bushiroad for ''MLP'', both through Creator/TVTokyo and its affiliates), Creator/DisneyChannel in Spain, and Creator/CorusEntertainment (Creator/{{YTV}}, Creator/TreehouseTV, and Creator/{{Teletoon}}) in Canada.

In September 2014, it was announced that Discovery Communications would acquire 10% of Hasbro's stake on the network, which means they would take majority control of the network back. Thus, [[NetworkDeath Hub Network would become Discovery Family]], aimed at both kids and their parents. Hasbro still has some influence on the network; while the initial press release stated they would control six hours of daytime programming, this appears to have been expanded to 12 hours. Shows acquired and programmed by Hasbro air from 5am to 5pm Eastern Time (Which means if you live on the East Coast and don't have any issues of recording TV programs, [[ScrewedByTheNetwork you're screwed]]).

The rest of the day of 2014, the classic comedy lineup being removed for repeats of Discovery library content, with family-friendly movies in primetime added with later on. While ongoing Hasbro-produced cartoons from The Hub are able to continue airing new episodes on Discovery Family, Hasbro decided that ''WesternAnimation/TransformersRobotsInDisguise'', a sequel to ''Transformers Prime'', would air instead of Creator/CartoonNetwork (ironically now its sister channel), as the new channel's demographics were seen as less favorable compared to Cartoon Network's male-oriented boy audiences.[[note]]''Robots in Disguise'' would end up being yet another installment of the franchise to be [[ScrewedByTheNetwork screwed over]] by Cartoon Network; the show was only seen on early Saturday mornings directly after signing off with Creator/AdultSwim with [[InvisibleAdvertising non-existent promotion]].[[/note]]

While the Discovery Kids channel no longer exists in its original form, the brand itself still sticks around in overseas markets, with the most prominent of these being it's Latin American version. Launched only a month after its native predecessor on November 1, 1996, the channel started off as being a Spanish-speaking version of its American counterpart, even airing the same programs. Eventually, it branched off into its own thing, catering more to the preschool demographic than it's precursor; introducing its own mascot in 2005, an adventure-loving dog named Doki, who would frequently appear in bumpers and interstitials before getting his [[WesternAnimation/{{Doki}} own TV series]]; and even updating the logo to distinguish itself from its native network. These factors, along with the huge fan following it has there compared to its home country, would define the channel's identity for the years to come and the channel itself would end up outliving its forerunner.

Launched on October 7, 1996, Discovery Kids was an offshoot of the Creator/DiscoveryChannel, only this time aimed at a younger audience. The channel's content consisted of science, nature, and adventure-themed programs, similar to how the regular channel and its offshoots operated, but watered-down to be more kid-friendly, hence its name. During its early years, they mostly acquired other programming from other channels, namely Canadian programming like ''Popular Mechanics for Kids'', ''The Saddle Club'', ''Series/IncredibleStoryStudios'', and ''Series/MysteryHunters''.
