Licensing giant 4Kids Entertainment is going to give kids a chance to discover what's inside this fall's Saturday kids lineup, the Fox Box, in a half-hour special to air on Fox Sunday, Sept. 1 (7 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., ET). "What's Inside the Fox Box?" will be hosted by Daryl Sabara and Alexa Vega, stars of newly-released "Spy Kids 2: The Island of Lost Dreams" motion picture.
The special will give a sneak peak at the 8 a.m-noon Saturday lineup of animated and live-action series programming to premiere Sept. 14. The kids programming includes such series as "Kirby: Right Back At Ya!" (based on the Nintendo video game) and "Stargate: Infinity."
As part of the $101.6 million-plus, four-year licensing deal (with options up to be extended up to six years), 4Kids Entertainment's time buy of Fox's weekend morning time slots also extracted promotional concessions from the network, including an annual prime-time preview special to tout each fall's premiering kids programming block.
