According to a new press release by The HUB, GI Joe Renegades is not listed as one of the returning series for 2011-2012. We’ll keep you posted, in the meantime, is Renegades something you would like to see return?
*Update: HISS Tank boards member General Hawk spoke to HUB PR and they relayed the following info:
“…we’re very pleased with the performance of G.I. JOE RENEGADES on The Hub. The series will go on hiatus at the end of season one while the second installment of the G.I. Joe movie franchise is being produced so Hasbro and Hasbro Studios can ensure the creative and storyline continuity that fans of the films and the series expect. We’ll have original episodes into the summer and we envision resuming new animation following the movie.”So there you have it folks, Renegades is on hiatus so Hasbro can focus on GI Joe 2. How do you feel about this? Join our ongoing discussion and share your thoughts!

...mentioning new and returning shows to the HUB...They mention what of their shows will return with new seasons, but G.I. Joe Renegades is not on the list. Mistake? or really not returning?
Rut roh Raggy!
Hmmm... That is interesting. I imagine we will know definitely after JoeCon. I can't imagine Hasbro spending a lot of money on toys only to cancel the show after one season. May have been an oversight.
I wouldn't worry until they officially confirm it. I remeber at last years' JoeCon them saying that they have everything planned out for, I think, 2 seasons. So we'll have to wait and see.
Also they'll be at the Con this year so someone can ask them the question.

I think it was more like five seasons that they had planned. Also, weren't they saying that the benefit of having their own network was that they could be more patient with shows based on their own properties?
I don't know, it would be weird to me if they were to cancel it already, especially since the times I've looked the ratings seem to be pretty good.
I'm thinking oversight, but let the panic talk begin.

Has anyone sent an email to either of the contacts given? I would, but my email is blocked at work (which, coincidently, is the company that link goes to.)
It sure doesn’t look like it’s going to continue for another season, as I’m looking at the Hasbro website announcement page right now.
That's too bad if that's true.
You could either wait for the convention to find out in about nine days, or ask Mark Kern or J.P. Shields @ hubtv.com by calling 818-531-3670/3672.
It would be a huge oversight . But to re new Dan vs and not renegades just seems bizarre !! In starting to panic. That would not be giving it any time to build at all. It had good ratings for that little network so that seems strange
