Documentary Channel (El Kadsre)

The El Kadsreian version of The Documentary Channel was a localized version of the American channel of the same name that featured documentary programming. It aired independent documentary films from around the world, including those not released in the United States and El Kadsre. The channel (along with Halogen TV) was replaced by Pivot, a channel aimed at young adults between 18 and 34 years old, that was also owned by Participant Media, and debuted on August 1, 2013.
