Hungama

Hungama, meaning ‘commotion’ or ‘excitement’, is an Indian children’s TV channel which shows primarily the Japanese children’s cartoon shows Doraemon and Shin Chan, alongside some local Indian productions.

It was originally launched by UTV Software Communications, which was later acquired by The Walt Disney Company India and also runs Disney Channel, Marvel HQ (formerly Disney XD) and Disney Junior in the kids’ genre.

The initial logo of the channel was unveiled on 7 June 2004 and the channel was launched that autumn, around the same time as Turner’s Pogo channel.

In 2005, a few months after the channel’s launch, the logo was changed to a colourful spiral, which is used to this day.
With the acquisition of Star by The Walt Disney Company India in March 2019, Hungama and the other Disney kids’ channels in India are now sister channels of BabyTV.

Note: All stations listed by market size -- largest to smallest -- with call letters at the time they were sold.

WFDF was originally in the Flint radio market before moving to Farmington Hills in the Detroit radio market in 2006. As a result of the station's move to Detroit, WFRO in the Toledo market as well as another station in Northern Michigan (also on 900) were taken off the air to allow WFDF to increase its broadcast power.
Disney/ABC never owned the station, but operated it under a Local Marketing Agreement. Birach Broadcasting has since taken complete, outright control of the station.
These stations are either silent or completely off the air at this time.
WGVX also simulcasts on 105.3 and 105.7.
