Vortexx was the only remaining Saturday morning block across the major broadcast networks to not air a E/I-based lineup. On September 27, 2014, citing changing viewing habits and other factors, The CW discontinued the block and replaced it with One Magnificent Morning, a factual E/I block from Litton Entertainment.
