Discovery/Hasbro US kidnet The Hub has unveiled its 2012-13 programming lineup with four new original series joining eight returning original series.

Just over a year since launching, The Hub is adding Care Bears: Welcome to Care-a-Lot, Littlest Pet Shop, Kaijudo: Rise of the Duel Masters and live-action supernatural series Spooksville, based on the popular tween book series from Christopher Pike, to the sked.

Hasbro Studios’ Kaijudo: Rise of the Duel Masters (26 x 30 minutes) premieres this summer and follows the adventures of a young hero, Ray, who has the ability to befriend and duel creatures from another world and features the voice talents of actors Scott Wolf (Party of Five), Freddy Rodriguez (Ugly Betty), John DiMaggio (Futurama and Pound Puppies) and Phil LaMarr (Mad TV). The series is based on the successful Japanese Duel Masters property from Hasbro-owned Wizards of the Coast (Magic: The Gathering and Dungeons & Dragons) and Hasbro Inc.

The American Greetings Properties-produced Care Bears: Welcome to Care-a-Lot coincides with the property’s 30th anniversary and will also debut this summer. Toyco Hasbro holds master toy rights to the IP.
