Jetix Switched Over in Italy
While most Jetix channels are closing up shop as Disney XD moves in, the group that ran the Jetix channel in Italy is just moving to a new location — and a new name. They have inked a deal to acquire GXT (available via Sky Italia Entertainment Channels Package) and K2 (a free TV channel), both of which are exclusive to the Italian market. The group is now called Switchover Media, and plans to develop other projects and series on various TV platforms. It is currently unknown what will happen to the current Jetix lineup, which includes; Kid vs. Kat, World of Quest, Yin Yang Yo!, and Pokemon DP Battle Dimension – which went to Jetix just a year ago.
