A New OTA TV Network Hasbro Legends is Now Live & Free With an Antenna – Here Are All The Markets It’s Currently In - | Cord Cutters News

What the report says

Cord Cutters News reported on July 26, 2026, that Hasbro Legends has begun broadcasting as a free over-the-air television network. The channel is described as a linear service built around classic Hasbro-related entertainment, including nostalgic animation, adventure and live-action programming tied to well-known toy and character franchises. Viewers do not need a cable package or streaming subscription, but must be within a participating station’s signal area and use a digital antenna.

According to the report, Hasbro Legends is being carried on local stations’ digital subchannels, with channel positions varying by market. The launch reflects a broader use of over-the-air multicast channels to add niche entertainment services alongside primary local broadcasts. For households that rely on antennas, or want no-cost alternatives to paid streaming, the network adds another free programming option.

Cord Cutters News listed the initial markets as West Palm Beach–Ft. Pierce and Jacksonville, Florida; Las Vegas; Birmingham/Tuscaloosa and Huntsville/Scottsboro, Alabama; Oklahoma City and Tulsa; Louisville; Buffalo, Albany-Schenectady-Troy and Syracuse, New York; Wilkes-Barre/Scranton; Knoxville and Chattanooga, Tennessee; Wichita and Topeka, Kansas; Charleston-Huntington, West Virginia; Savannah and Columbus, Georgia; Charleston, South Carolina; Shreveport and Baton Rouge, Louisiana; Greenville, North Carolina; Tyler-Longview-Lufkin-Nacogdoches, Texas; Sioux Falls; Fargo; Eugene; Peoria; Chico-Redding; Joplin-Pittsburg; Idaho Falls-Pocatello-Jackson; Gainesville; and Rapid City.

The publisher said households in those areas may need to rescan their televisions to find the new subchannel. Any further expansion beyond the listed markets was not detailed in the supplied report.
