ABC Entertains

On 9 May 2024, it was announced that ABC Me, which was launched in 2009 as Australia's first dedicated free-to-air children's channel, would rebrand to ABC Entertains on 3 June, shifting its format to general entertainment programming. The channel's relaunch was anchored by the premieres of new series of Interview with the Vampire and Wreck. Youth programming moved to ABC Family; although some programs still air in the morning (from 5:00–11:00 am), and the ABC Education block (from 9:00–11:00 am weekdays) largely remains untouched. On 19 May 2025, it was announced that ABC Entertains, along with the ABC News channel, would be converted to MPEG-4 HD, with the switchover concluding on 26 June. == Programming ==
