Shutdown and Replacement
In October 2009, it was announced that Fox Reality Channel would be discontinued on most providers on March 29, 2010 and re-branded into an American version of National Geographic Wild. On DirecTV, the channel was temporarily replaced by Fox Soccer and then National Geographic Wild. Also on that date, the channel's old website was taken down and redirected to its archived programming on Hulu.com, as well as National Geographic Wild's new site. National Geographic Wild was launched on Dish Network on April 19, 2010. DirecTV removed Fox Reality and added National Geographic Wild on June 30, 2010.

Famous quotes containing the word replacement:
“Not even the visionary or mystical experience ever lasts very long. It is for art to capture that experience, to offer it to, in the case of literature, its readers; to be, for a secular, materialist culture, some sort of replacement for what the love of god offers in the world of faith.”
—Salman Rushdie (b. 1947)
