Beginning This Fall, Monday through Friday, Nat Geo WILD Programming Will Air 9-11 AM and National Geographic Channels International Programming Will Air 11 AM-1 PM on National Geographic Channel

(WASHINGTON, D.C. - September 29, 2014) National Geographic Channel (NGC) today announced it will bring new changes to its daytime programming. NGC recently began airing programming from sister network Nat Geo WILD from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m., and beginning Monday, Sept. 29, 2014, it will add programming from National Geographic Channels International (NGCI) from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., Monday through Friday.

"This is an opportunity for us to reinvigorate our daytime schedule while taking advantage of the brand's diverse and extensive inventory," said Brad Dancer, senior vice president, programming planning and research for NGC.

Nat Geo WILD programming block will include:

World's Deadliest (series)

The animal kingdom is rife with epic stories of survival - tales of kill or be killed - a place where each and every moment is fraught with life-and-death decisions. World's Deadliest goes inside the most riveting moments of animal predation, breaking down the struggle for survival and supremacy.

World's Weirdest (series)

The strangest, most fascinating and most bizarre creatures on the planet take center stage in World's Weirdest. From the shocking to the disturbing to the downright disgusting, each hourlong episode uncovers animal life on Earth - in its most unusual forms.

Animals Gone Wild (series)

From the mysterious depths of the deep blue sea to the jungle's untamed edge, see just how rough and rowdy Mother Nature's most unruly creatures can be.

Animal Fight Night (series)

Animal Fight Night features same-species battles between some of the biggest and baddest - and most surprising - fighters of the animal kingdom, revealing the extraordinary motivations and strategies that fuel each incredible brawl.

NGCI programming block will include:

Vinnie Jones: Russia's Toughest (6x60)

As a former professional soccer player, Vinnie Jones is no stranger to serious roughhousing and fierce competition. But he's up against his hardest challenge yet as he goes head-to-head with men whose fearsome reputations enable them to handle some of the toughest jobs in Russia.

Incredibly Small World (8x60)

Incredibly Small World uncovers the extraordinary, surprising and often inspiring lives of people with dwarfism all across the globe. From hidden communities to outrageous individuals, cameras reveal what it's really like to be a little person in a big world, and show that sometimes the biggest personalities come in the smallest packages.

Ultimate Airport Dubai (10x60)

Dubai International Airport is a modern mecca of international air travel. Step behind the scenes of its three massive terminals, including Terminal 3 - the largest building on Earth by floor space, measuring 359 football pitches in size. With unprecedented access to all facets of this mega facility, the series follows some of the 60,000 staff working hard to keep it safe, secure and on schedule.

Car S.O.S. (20x60, beginning in November)

Join gearhead Tim Shaw and master mechanic/musician Fuzz Townshend as they combine forces to rescue rusty classics from their garage prisons. With some grease, graft, mechanical expertise and just a little tender loving care, the Car S.O.S. team rescues much-loved classics and transforms them inside and out. In goes a dusty, tarnished mess and out comes a swanky, shiny new automobile in all its former glory - and then it's time to hand the keys back to the shocked owner!

Both Nat Geo WILD and NGCI programming blocks will continue through the end of December 2014.
