Temmie Central is a 24-hour children's TV network owned by PI. It solely airs cartoons, hence its beta name, Cartoon Central. The network is available to watch and stream on the Piece online streaming/on demand service.
Its main competitors are Fox Kids, Luis TV, and Jasbre TV, though Temmie Central has stated that they want a civil relationship with all. Despite this, a 'war' between Fox Kids and Temmie Central occurred during 2017.
In Summer 2018, a merge between Temmie Central and Fox Kids was discussed, despite a previous war.
History[]
It was created by PolarTem after SpongeBob n' Stuff needed a network to air on. After that, it expanded to air more shows, have bumpers, a YouTube channel, etc.
During 2017, a 'war' between Fox Kids and Temmie Central occurred, though this has been described more as 'play-fighting' and all issues have since been resolved. The war was due to Fox Kids announcing similar things to what Temmie Central already had and Temmie Central making a commercial parodying the 'Sega vs. Nintendo war' (with Fox Kids representing Nintendo).
From May 7 to May 11 2018, the channel was taken off air, though it returned on the 12th re-branded, along with all other channels owned by PI.

Second Channel[]
Temmie Central's second channel, Temmie Town, was launched in February 2017 and airs shows that are no longer made or aren't in high demand. Unlike Temmie Central, it isn't a 24-hour network.
Pre-School Network[]
Main article: Tem Jr.
On August 29th 2017, a pre-school spin-off-network launched. The network was initially planned to be a programming block but it was quickly realised that its target audience could either potentially not be awake at the scheduled time of the block or not understand what happened when the block ended earlier than most pre-school programming blocks to make room for the other shows.
Filipino Dub[]
On June 9 2018, a Filipino dub was announced titled 'Tem Sentral'. It launched on June 15.
Programming Blocks[]
Super Saturdays[]
Super Saturdays is a block that lasts all day every Saturday. The whole schedule that day is voted on by fans the previous week on the Temmie Central app. Viewers can play games on the app when the block is shown, and if they get the high score, their nickname could get featured on the network.
Night Hours[]
'Temmie Central's Night Hours' was a block that aired from 10:00 PM to 2:00 AM and showed shows not suitable for younger audiences. During this time, the channel was 'locked' and required a password to access. Before the block started, a one minute warning shows before lock-down and viewers were reminded they can still watch their shows on Temmie Central's On Demand service on the TV, a computer or on the Temmie Central app for free as long as they have a TV licence. The mascot of the block was Penisman, a character created on the SBFW Discord and Golfpecks256's nickname.
The block was discontinued when Temmie Central went off air from May 7th to May 11th, but all of the block's shows returned on a new 24/7 channel, known as Polo.
Fox Kids Takeover[]
From August 6th to August 11th, the "Fox Kids Takeover" began on Temmie Central and Temmie Town. Each day, the channels would air Fox Kids' programming for two consecutive hours. The block was created after plans for Fox Kids and Temmie Central to merge were discussed, and Fox Toons would air a similar block the following week.

App[]
