The channel was launched in October 2005 and was the second Discovery network to launch in France. On 3 March 2009 the channel adopted a new logo and a new look designed to be "fresh and stimulating".[1][2]

After the channel was dropped by leading satellite distributor Canalsat, Discovery decided to close it down. Transmissions ended on 26 January 2010 and was replaced by Discovery HD Showcase.[3]

Programming

The channel used to broadcast both foreign programmes and a few original French productions. Most acquired programmes were originally produced for the American TLC or the British Channel 4. Programmes included:

gollark: Time travel seems pretty hard to reason about for our operating-in-linear-time brains.
gollark: I have never heard anyone use slyce or, well, anything but bit, byte and occasionally nybble before.
gollark: Flip-flop things not implemented on top of other gates would be stateful, wouldn't they?
gollark: SRAM cells need power constantly or they lose data.
gollark: Flash memory is also implemented in silicon and does nonvolatile storage using some black magic with a weird type of transistor.
