Nat Geo Kids (2020-2022)

Nat Geo Kids was a children's pay subscription channel of Latin America owned by National Geographic Partners and The Walt Disney Company, originally launched on July 1, 2017 in favor of replacing MundoFox in Latin America and in Brazil for the Octuber 3, 2017. The channel was also released in the Middle East and North Africa as Nat Geo Kids Abu Dhabi on November 20 of the same year, but that international feed ceased on January 1, 2020 for unknown reasons.

On January 10, 2022, it was announced that Nat Geo Kids will shut down on March 31 along with the Latin American versions of Disney XD, Nat Geo Wild, Star Life & FXM.

Why It Sucks Now

 * 1) On June 1, 2021, the two feeds of Latin America and Brazil were merged, which now has two languages together (Spanish and Portuguese) next to 2 different age classifications. From there, channel's original series were removed as Nat Geo Lab or Opa Popa Dupa, which harms the channel. Advertising was also removed. Something that also happened in Nat Geo Wild.
 * 2) Many series like Bitz & Bob are removed without explanation, even though they are series that still did not end.
 * 3) Repetitive programming, mostly on the channel pass old episodes of current channel series. Which is boring, since the programming rarely varies with the days.
 * 4) World Animal Championship suffers censorship because it is a channel for children.
 * 5) In 2021 there were only 2 new series that premiered in the channel, Doggy World (which is a recent series) and World Animal Championship (which is a 2013 series).
 * 6) For now it is unknown whether for this year 2022 new series will be released to the channel.
 * 7) Since January 2022, Disney announced that the channel will shut down on March 31, 2022 along with the Latin American feeds of Disney XD, Nat Geo Wild, FXM and Star Life, so it is no longer likely to get up from this downhill.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) Before 2020, the channel used to be very good.
 * 2) The only channel's original series that still passed there are Opadventures, Ico Bit Zip, Doggy World, Javi and The Tree Club, before it shut down on April 1, 2022.
 * 3) It had good series like Let's Go Luna!, World Animal Championship, Ranger Rob, Dino Dana, etc.
 * 4) Certain Saturdays and Sundays in the mornings showed shorts of DreamWorks and 20th Century Fox Television Studios.
 * 5) On Saturdays in CineKids block sometimes passed new movies every month, although the last CineKids was broadcast on March 26, 2022.
