Kimba
is back on TV!However, these are the
1993
episodes and not the original episodes from the
60s and 70s.
It
is aired on the i-Life
TV (Inspirational Life TV) channel, which
is available on cable TV and which is carried on the
U.S. satellites Galaxy 4R (99.0º W, frequency and
polarization 12140 vertical) as a part of the HITS
- Headend in the Sky package, and on Intelsat
Americas 7 (129.0º W, frequency and polarization
4100 vertical) as a part of the OlympuSat
package.
[Check this
link to see if i-Life TV is available on cable
TV or satellite in your city.]
It is aired every Saturday at 9:00 AM EST. The first episode was aired on Thursday, 8th April.UPDATED
Remark:
Both satellites cover the continental U.S., but
the Intelsat Americas 7 satellite can be seen only with
a C-band (8-foot) satellite dish. The Galaxy 4R satellite,
however, is in the Ku-band which might be received with
a smaller antenna (30 inches or such).
1993 Kimba has been aired on another TV - America One Network. It was aired every Saturday at 11:30 AM EST, 1 episode per week. The airing started on 4th July 2004, and ended in January 2009. UPDATED
Although
I've found that America One is carried on the Intelsat
Americas 7 satellite (129.0º W, freq.4060 vertical),
the receipt of America One on satellite is not announced
yet.
"Kimba
el leon blanco" TV series has been shown on La

2004, Monday to Wednesday at 8:30 AM ET and at 4:30

While it was still operating, Kimba has been aired on another U.S. TV - Urban America TV (UATV), and these were the 1993 episodes as well. They were aired every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 3:30 PM EST, and every Saturday at 7:30 AM EST, one episode a day.
UATV had several affiliate stations across U.S. - perhaps you will be able to use this link to find their nearest affiliate station. It was also carried via satellite on Intelsat Americas 5 (97.0°W, freq.3757 vertical). However, in May 2006 UATV suspended its operations indefinitely.
