According to this article in the Hollywood Reporter, Fox has acquired a major stake in BabyTV, a new international TV channel devoted to children ages 3 and under. A similar channel called Babyfirst is also being developed by a French cable group called CanalSat.
Both channels are commercial-free and are funded by private companies. The shows will be 2 to 7 minutes long to accommodate the short attention span of toddlers. Hopefully during their youth, these kids' parents will actually tear them away from this network and have them play outside once or twice.
