The block was initially hosted by children's entertainer Rory Zuckerman, who was billed as simply "Rory". In 1996, Discovery Kids began to air its shows in its schedule upon its launch as one of the first digital cable networks.

On February 24, 2003, Ready Set Learn introduced Paz the Penguin, who was seen in the block's official logo. The block aired for the last time on TLC on September 26, 2008, and it was replaced with repeats of regular TLC programming three days later.

On October 10, 2010, Discovery Kids was re-branded as The Hub (now Discovery Family) as a joint venture with Hasbro, and the Ready Set Learn block was rebranded with new shows as HubBub the following day; it lasted until 2012.

gollark: It's kind of unintuitive.
gollark: `a` is just one value, so the second return is discarded, so it works sensibly.
gollark: `gsub` actually returns multiple values. Because Lua, since it's the last thing passed to that function, `table.insert` is passed the string it returns and a number from it. `table.insert` has an overload where it takes `(table, position, value)` or something instead of `(table, value)`.
gollark: The alternative to having it be a GPS server thing would be per-dimension "dimservers" or something providing the dimension name (and possibly server name and metadata), which could work too I guess.]
gollark: The main problem I envision is that I haven't worked out a standard for dimension naming, so it just uses the one it receives the most fixes containing, which can be basically anything the GPS servers want, and that it won't function reliably without a large amount of dimension-enabled GPS servers.
