Sister site TFW2005 has reported that according to Advertising Age, The Hub will air at least an hour's worth of vintage programming each day when it debuts in fall:

But The Hub is also looking to pry open Hasbro's vaults and those of other production companies to program at least an hour's worth of vintage content from the 1980s to attract the parents of its target viewers.

Of course the 1st thing that comes to mind is the original GI Joe A Real American Hero series by Sunbow. So we have something for older fans, but how about the new? The article hints at the new series to launch on October 10th, including the new 26 episode GI Joe animated series:

The newest kid on the block, The Hub, also has the added pressure of what will likely be one of the last big cable network launches ever -- second only, perhaps, to Discovery sibling the Oprah Winfrey Network. But Margaret Loesch, CEO of the joint venture, is banking on more than two decades of experience in programming to children from her days as a producer of Hasbro programs such as "GI Joe," "My Little Pony" and "Transformers," all of which are expected to appear in revamped form when the network launches Oct. 1

Little is known about the upcoming series, other than the fact that Michael Bell auditioned for the role of General Hawk, and that Eric Bauza auditioned for Tunnel Rat. Will it really premiere on 10/10/2010?
