I like Kids WB a little more so...since they had a show with Looney Tunes, Tiny Toons, and Animaniacs combined! The Cat&Birdy Warneroonie PinkyBrainy Big Cartoonie Show

And if they added H-B Shows from Tom and Jerry to Secret Squirrel...I'd be in Hog Heaven! Too bad it was only on for a year...

I liked both.

Both of them were good but i like Kids WB more

Definitely Fox Kids. X Men, The Tick, Spiderman, MMPR, etc... 'nuff said.

Don't forget Beetlejuice!

Fox Kids was a big part of the 90's animation renaissance. Alot of what made the 90's toons successful, was they paid homage to the golden age of theatrical animation. Even shows like Batman the Animated series took inspiration from the Fleischer Superman cartoons.

They also borrowed alot of inpiration from classic comic books and comic strips during that period. Disney afternoon cartoons such as Tailspin, Ducktales and Darkwing Duck was inspired by the Carl Barks Disney Duck books, Terry and The Pirates and Batman.

Sorry with the lateness. Now with the quickness! FOX KIDS!

The 90s were weirdly magical for cartoons, right? Nothing could stop you from waking up on Saturdays for your favorite cartoon of Kids’ Warner Brothers, whatever your jam was that week. What most of us seem to forget, however, is how intentional all this was. Kids’ WB planned out everything for kids. They wanted kids to have their own space, their own minds, and their own voice. But nothing is permanent, so Kids’ WB wasn’t either. Times changed, and slowly we lost the gem for better or for worse. Today, we’ll discuss all about what happened to Kids’ WB. Let’s get started.

Remember when waking up early on a Saturday felt worth it?
In the 1990s, FOX Kids transformed Saturday mornings into a full-blown cultural event — with darker superheroes, faster animation, serialized storytelling, and shows that actually treated kids like intelligent viewers.

In this video, we break down how FOX Kids rose from nothing to dominate the ’90s, changed children’s television forever, launched massive franchises like Power Rangers, X-Men, and Batman: The Animated Series, and then vanished almost overnight after corporate mergers and shifting TV habits rewrote the rules.

From the bold launch strategy and the Warner Bros. animation deal, to moral panics, cable wars with Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network, Disney’s billion-dollar buyout, and the death of Saturday morning appointment viewing — this is the complete rise, peak, and fall of FOX Kids.

This isn’t just nostalgia. It’s the story of how kids’ TV got cooler, riskier, and smarter… and why we’ll probably never see anything like it again.

Every Saturday morning, millions of kids woke up early, poured a bowl of cereal, and sat in front of the TV for one reason: Saturday morning cartoons. Fox Kids wasn't just a programming block — it was a ritual. X-Men. Power Rangers. Spider-Man. Batman TAS. For one generation, Saturday mornings meant Fox Kids. And then, on September 7, 2002, it was gone.

In this video, we break down exactly what killed Saturday morning cartoons — using a full Case File investigation into the four suspects behind one of the biggest losses in 90s TV history.

🔍 What you'll discover:


The FCC regulation that silently crippled every broadcast cartoon network

How Cartoon Network and Nickelodeon made Saturday morning obsolete

Why Fox Kids' greatest era set up its own collapse

The $5.3 billion Disney deal that was the final death blow


Whether you grew up with 80s cartoons, 90s cartoons, or early 2000s Saturday mornings — this one hits different.

In September of nineteen ninety, Fox launched a Saturday morning kids' block with no budget, no original shows, and no credibility. Every network in America thought they would fail.

Seven years later, FOX Kids was beating Nickelodeon. They had X-Men: The Animated Series. Spider-Man. Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. Batman. The greatest cartoon lineup any network had ever assembled.

Then in October of two thousand and one, News Corp sold Fox Family Worldwide to Disney for five point three billion dollars. Haim Saban walked away with one point five billion dollars — one of the largest individual cash payouts in Hollywood history. The Saturday morning block was handed to 4Kids Entertainment (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WWFiMRAU_ro) in September of two thousand and two. X-Men, Spider-Man, and Power Rangers vanished. Ratings collapsed thirty percent. The network that ruled Saturday mornings was erased by a string of boardroom decisions.

This video is the rise and fall of FOX Kids — how Haim Saban's two-million-dollar Super Sentai deal built a billion-dollar empire, how X-Men and Spider-Man rewrote what kids' television could be, and how Disney's five point three billion dollar acquisition killed it overnight.

Kids' WB ran for nearly 13 years and became the longest-running Saturday morning cartoon block in television history. This is its full story.

From its launch on September 9, 1995 to its final broadcast on May 17, 2008, Kids' WB gave a generation of kids Pokémon, Batman Beyond, Yu-Gi-Oh, Animaniacs, Static Shock, and dozens more. It was created by Jamie Kellner, the same man who built Fox Kids, and it eventually beat every competing Saturday morning block, including Fox Kids itself.

In this video, we cover:

00:00 — Intro
00:58 — Jamie Kellner and the founding of Kids' WB
02:30 — The disastrous 1.5-share debut
04:59 — How Pokémon changed everything in 1999
07:24 — The golden age: Yu-Gi-Oh, Batman Beyond, Static Shock
10:36 — The decline: Loonatics Unleashed and cable competition
12:56 — The CW transition and the final broadcast
15:26 — The afterlife: KidsWB.com and the WB Kids YouTube channel
16:39 — Why Kids' WB still matters


Kids' WB was the last broadcast block to make Saturday mornings feel like an event. If you grew up watching it, this one's for you.

With network Saturday morning losing ground to cable, Kids' WB breathed new energy into the format for a good while, while its successors, TheCW4Kids, Toonzai and Vortexx, tried to keep it going, but did no good!
