On February 24, 2016, NBCUniversal announced that it had entered into a programming agreement with Litton Entertainment to launch a new Saturday morning E/I block replacing NBC Kids. The block would be replaced on October 8, 2016 by The More You Know (named inspired by its public service announcement campaign), a block produced by Litton Entertainment (now Hearst Media Production Group) that would feature live-action documentary and lifestyle programs aimed at pre-teens and teenagers. The move came as part of a shift by broadcast television networks towards using their Saturday morning lineup solely to comply with the educational programming requirements mandated by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), along with the cultural shift towards cable and online video on demand viewing of children's and animated programming. NBC Kids aired for the final time on September 25, 2016. Despite this, MiTelemundo continued to broadcast on Telemundo until December 31, 2017, when it was replaced by a Spanish-language version of The More You Know the following week under the same name.
