An IP address relates to the location of a user's computer or device, and a single person may have multiple IP addresses if they use different locations or networks. These IP addresses are grouped because the average embedding of each IP address's opening prompts (computed with all-MiniLM-L6-v2 sentence-transformer) has cosine similarity ≥ 0.75 and they share the same state (Renfrewshire). Groups are merged transitively—if A matches B and B matches C, all three are grouped even if A and C are below 0.75.

USER: Thread Title: Squish Cartoon Coming to Kids WB! Mid-Season Madness GreenJelly223: Hey Squish fans! Did you guys hear the news? There's a Squish cartoon in the works and it's hitting Kids WB's mid-season lineup! Can't wait to see our favorite amoeba make the jump from page to screen! MicrobeMania: No way, this is awesome! Squish has been one of my favorite graphic novel series for my kids. They're going to freak out! Have they announced who's behind the animation or any voice actors yet? AmoebaAmy: OMG, this made my day! I stumbled onto the news on Twitter but wasn't sure if it was real. I just hope they keep the charm of the comics. The sense of humor in Squish is just right for a cartoon! ScienceRules45: @MicrobeMania I read that the team behind some of the recent popular cartoons is on board for this. As for voice actors, nothing's announced yet. I'm crossing my fingers they get some quality talent. Hoping for some great chemistry between Squish, Pod, and Peggy. TheComicNerd21: True, voice acting can make or break a cartoon adaptation. I'm a bit skeptical, tbh. Sometimes these transitions lose the spirit of the original material. But I'll reserve judgment until we get a trailer or something. ArtsyOwl: Has anyone heard about the art style yet? The simplistic yet expressive style of the books is super charming. Kids WB tends to go for flashier animation, though I hope they keep it close to the spirit of the Squish comics. HappyMom200: I just hope they tackle the educationa...
CHATBOT: Thread Title: The CW4Kids Takeover and the Slow Rebrand of Kids WB - What to Expect NostalgiaNerd92: Alright, fellow cartoon buffs, let's talk about this transition from Kids WB to CW4Kids. Did anyone else feel blindsided by the promos in December? They didn't even hint at 4Kids taking charge! And now we're losing Squish and The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers for Pokemon and Sonic X? What's next? ToonTransitioner: Definitely was a curveball, @NostalgiaNerd92! The promos were vague, but I had a hunch something was up. And now with the "Super Duper Late Winter Lineup," it's clear they're pushing the 4Kids brand hard. Kids WB as we knew it is vanishing faster than a ghost in Scooby-Doo. PixelPusher: Saw the writing on the wall when Kids WB bit the dust. It's a real nostalgia trip with 4Kids though. Pokemon: Indigo League and Sonic X are solid, but that's some old-school content. Feels like we're rewinding a decade. ChannelSurfer: I'm mostly curious about the website footer. If Warner Bros Discovery, Paramount Global, Nexstar Media Group are still mentioned, does that mean 4Kids doesn't have full control yet? Maybe the Easter update will clear that up. ShowSceptic: Alright, let's face it, Yu-Gi-Oh 5Ds, Chaotic, TMNT: Back to the Sewers, Pokemon Horizons: Those are all heavy 4Kids staples. Johnny Test and Xiaolin Showdown's days are probably numbered. It's only a matter of time before the complete rebrand. GraphicNovice: Honestly not looking forward to Ultimate Muscle and Kirby replacing Teen Titans Go and Batman. Feels like swapping filet mignon for a day-old burger. And what's the deal with their slogan reveal? If you're trying to be stealthy, at least commit! AnimationAdmirer: The slow rebrand strategy is confusing. Why tease us with that "You're signed on to the CW4Kids" slogan if they're not ready to go full throttle? And the outdated website footer? 4Kids needs to coordinate their rebranding game better. CartoonConnoisseur: The real question is how much of Kids WB's original aesthetic and vibe will remain post-Easter. Will there be a complete overhaul, or are they aiming for a blend of the old and new? AnimeAvid: Quite a few of us were hoping for a mix, but with all these 4Kids shows queued up, the Kids WB flavor seems to be on the way out. Let's not forget, "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" is still hanging on, but for how long? DigitalDetective: Did you folks catch the preview for Pokemon Horizons? If that's the quality of content we're going to get,...
USER: Write a follow up where promos for GoGoRiki, Ultimate Muscle and Kirby are airing, and they slightly deviate from the comic book style promo Kids WB has been using for ages (Even the Pokemon and Sonic X promo used that style), and they all have one other thing in common
CHATBOT: Thread Title: The New Wave: GoGoRiki, Ultimate Muscle, and Kirby Promos Signal a Shift ToonTransitioner: Hey, have you all seen the new promos for GoGoRiki, Ultimate Muscle, and Kirby? They're definitely straying from the classic Kids WB comic book style. The change isn't drastic, but it's noticeable. Seems like 4Kids is easing us into their own aesthetic. Also, did anyone else pick up on the common theme? GraphicNovice: Yeah, I noticed the trend. All the promos have this action-packed narrative style. It's almost like they're setting up a more dynamic, fast-paced approach to selling these shows. Less about the quirky humor and fantasy and more about the energy and excitement. AnimationAdmirer: Not just that, but it also feels like they're trying to push the ensemble cast angle. Each promo showed off a large cast of characters and a world of unique personalities. That screams classic 4Kids strategy. Appeal by numbers; more characters, more merch, more fandom? ChannelSurfer: It's a slick move for sure. The deviation from the comic book promo could just be them testing the waters before committing to a full-on style change. But these new promos definitely have a more modern, almost anime-inspired flair. PixelPusher: @ChannelSurfer, I'm with you on that. The visual effects they've used are quite flashy - a lot more glitz than the straightforward comic book look. It seems like they're trying to attract the anime crowd too, by moving away from American cartoon vibes. ShowSceptic: To be honest, I'm not too fond of it. There was something comforting about the old Kids WB style. It was unique and identifiable. This new format feels... generic? Overproduced? I'm not quite sure, but something's off. NostalgiaNerd92: I feel that, @ShowSceptic. The Kids WB style had personality. With these new promos, even though they look good, they lack that distinct charm. It's clear we're not in Kansas anymore, toons. CartoonConnoisseur: One thing they all have in common that struck me is the 'Join the Adventure' tagline. It's as if they're trying to coerce us into accepting the new era. "Come along with us--whether you like it or not!" There's a feeling of unity they're pushing, but it's forced. AnimeAvid: That's 4Kids for you; always gunning for the epic saga style. At least the shows they're adding do have strong followings. Maybe the substance will make up for the jarring shift in presentation style. Admin Note: It's great to see everyone sharing their thoughts on the upcomin...

Kids WB tends to go for flashier animation, though I hope they keep it close to the spirit of the Squish comics. HappyMom200: I just hope they tackle the educational aspects well. My kids learned so much about microorganisms from these books while laughing their heads off. It'll be great for them to watch Squish's adventures! BioGeek: Yes! Education through entertainment is the best. I mean, who knew an amoeba could make science this fun? And considering we've all become amateur virologists lately (thanks, 2020), the timing couldn't be better. GreenJelly223: For sure, @BioGeek. They have a chance here to really create something that's as informational as it is entertaining. I also love how the books touch on themes of friendship and acceptance. If they keep that intact, it's going to be a hit. MicrobeMania: Anybody have any insider scoop on when we might be getting a peek at the animation or the voice cast? I'm super eager to see anything at this point! Bacteriophage_: Rumors say a teaser might drop sometime in the spring. Keep your eyes peeled and your streaming devices ready! AmoebaAmy: Well, here's hoping Kids WB keeps the slime rolling! Can't wait to see our little squishy buddy in action. Let's keep this thread updated with any new info! Admin5: This thread has been locked due to its inactivity over 30 days. Please feel free to open a new one if you have more news or want to continue the discussion about the upcoming Squish cartoon. Write a follow up where the premiere is in mid March, Also, Apple and Onion is being replaced by the return of reruns of Xiaolin Showdown, also TTG, Gumball and Johnny Test are still the flagships, Also The Tom and Jerry Show is over, and will be replaced by Steven Universe reruns in May Thread Title: Squish Premiere Date and Schedule Changes on Kids WB! Bacteriophage_: Hey everyone, big news! The Squish cartoon is set to premiere in mid-March! Clear your calendars and get ready for some amoeba action! Who's excited? CartoonAficionado: Finally, some concrete dates! I've been keeping an eye out since our last thread went quiet. Mid-March is sooner than I expected. Also heard about some schedule shake-ups. Looks like Apple and Onion is getting shelved for the Xiaolin Showdown reruns. Not sure how I feel about that one. AmoebaAmy: Squish is starting soon?! That's awesome! I'm totally having a viewing party with my kids. But wow, Apple and Onion out for Xiaolin Showdown...nostalgia trip, anyone? I did love that show, but it's a bit of a genre leap from Apple and Onion. RestInToons: RIP The Tom and Jerry Show. Kinda saw that ending coming. And to be replaced by Steven Universe reruns in May? I need new cartoons, not just rewinds. But Steven Universe is still a gem, at least. MicrobeMania: No more Tom and Jerry? That's the end of an era. Though, to be fair, SU reruns are solid. It's not every day you get a show that tackles heavy themes with magical aliens. Still, can't help but hope we get some fresh blood in the lineup eventually. ScienceRules45: True, new content is key, but at least we have Squish! And with TTG, Gumball, and Johnny Test holding the fort as flagships, I think Kids WB has a pretty balanced mix. Squish might just be the breath of fresh air we need right now. GreenJelly223: So, mid-March for Squish, that's great! Does anyone know if that's going to affect TTG, Gumball, or Johnny Test air times? I know they're the heavy hitters, just hoping Squish gets a good slot that doesn't clash. TheComicNerd21: Haven't seen anything about time changes for the flagships. I reckon Squish will find its place without much issue. Kids WB tends to do well with scheduling around their mainstays. And let's face it--TTG is practically unmovable at this point. HappyMom200: My kids will be over the moon with the return of Xiaolin Showdown. I loved it as a kid, too. It's going to be a mix of new and old at our house with Squish and the reruns. I think Kids WB might just pull off this balance. Still, hoping those reruns are just placeholders for future original content. ArtsyOwl: I'm just happy Squish is making its debut! Sure, schedule changes are always a bit of a rollercoaster, but that's the nature of TV, right? Out with the old, in with the new... and sometimes back in with the old! Admin5: Friendly reminder to keep industry rumor discussions civil. Looking forward to seeing how Squish is received by the community here! Let's revisit this thread after the premiere to share our thoughts. And, as always, stay tuned for any further schedule updates from Kids WB. Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up during the summer, The summer lineup has TTG, Gumball, Steven Universe, Xiaolin Showdown, Johnny Test, Squish, Skatoony, Scooby Doo and Guess Who, Looney Tunes Cartoons and Craig of the Creek, Also, new episodes of Ben 10, Looney Tunes Cartoons, Teen Titans Go, Craig of the Creek and Johnny Test return in September Thread Title: Kids WB Summer Lineup + Fall New Episodes Info! GreenJelly223: Summer's heating up, folks, and so is Kids WB's lineup! We're looking at TTG, Gumball, Steven Universe, and Xiaolin Showdown reruns. Plus, Squish, Skatoony, Scooby Doo and Guess Who, Looney Tunes Cartoons, and Craig of the Creek are all part of the mix. How's everyone feeling about the current programming? CartoonAficionado: Honestly, it's a bit of a mixed bag, but I'm not complaining! New fans are getting a taste of some classic toons with Xiaolin Showdown, and Squish has been a pleasant surprise--really nailing it. Plus, Craig of the Creek is always solid. It's like a buffet of different cartoon flavors this summer. Bacteriophage_: And don't forget what's coming in the fall - new episodes of Ben 10, Looney Tunes Cartoons, Teen Titans Go, Craig of the Creek, and Johnny Test. September can't come soon enough! AmoebaAmy: Squish has been an absolute delight! My kids adore it, and it's turning into our little summer tradition to watch together. As much as I love TTG and Gumball, it's Squish that has us tuning in with the most excitement. TheComicNerd21: A heads-up for all the true toon fans out there: new episodes for some of these shows are usually a blast. I've got high hopes for the fall, especially for Craig of the Creek--they've been consistently knocking it out of the park. ScienceRules45: I'm just glad we have such variety. Keeps the channel interesting. Summer is always tricky with kids home all day, but this lineup has something for everybody. ArtsyOwl: Agreed on the variety. The blend of classic and contemporary shows has me responding like I'm five and thirteen all at once. By the way, the art in the latest season of Looney Tunes Cartoons has been stellar. Can't wait to see what they do next. MicrobeMania: I am surprised how well Skatoony holds up. It's not everyone's cup of tea, but the quizzing with cartoons is unique. And with Scooby Doo and Guess Who featured, it feels like we've got a bit of a detective theme going on. Or is it just me? RestInToons: September seems pretty far, but I got a feeling that new Teen Titans Go and Johnny Test episodes will make some serious waves. Ben 10, too, has been gearing up for something big, at least that's the vibe. HappyMom200: It's a stable lineup for sure. Steven Universe reruns are still a hit in my house. Plus, I appreciate the educational value in shows like Squish. Keeps the kids learning even out of school--parents' summer dream! Admin5: Great to see such positivity about the lineup! As always, discuss your favorite shows, but please remember no spoilers for unaired episodes. Let's reconvene in this thread when the new episodes drop in September to share our thoughts and reviews! Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up where Robotboy is added to the schedule the next year in May 2022 when Summer begins, B10, LTC and SU are leaving, Robotboy, Skatoony and Chop Socky Chooks are taking their place, Also in the fall, we have a few new shows, Ultimate Spider-Man, Batman: The Brave and the bold and Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated, Also a new acquired comedy cartoon about 2 blobs Thread Title: Kids WB Schedule Shakeup - Hello Robotboy, So Long Ben 10 & Others! GreenJelly223: Hold onto your remotes, toon fans! Coming up next in May 2022, just as summer kicks off, Kids WB is adding Robotboy to the lineup. It's a nostalgia hit for sure but sad to see some good ones like Ben 10, Looney Tunes Cartoons, and Steven Universe leave us. Thoughts? TheComicNerd21: Man, Robotboy brings me back. Haven't seen that little guy in AGES. Sad to see Ben 10 go; it was always a solid watch. But, this is the life of a cartoon fan, right? Out with the old, in with the... older? Bacteriophage_: Robotboy's return is quite a surprise. It had that classic boy-and-his-robot vibe. Also, Skatoony and Chop Socky Chooks? That's quite the throwback. For those who don't remember, Chop Socky Chooks was this wild mix of kung fu and chickens--only in cartoons, folks! CartoonAficionado: Don't forget about the fall bonanza! Kids WB is loading up with some heavy hitters--Ultimate Spider-Man, Batman: The Brave and the Bold, and Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated. Plus, that new comedy about two blobs? Can't find much on it, but new content is always exciting! AmoebaAmy: Wait, so we're swapping out some superhero action with... different superhero action, and we're keeping the mystery with Scooby-Doo. And do I smell a strong comedy theme building up with the two blob cartoon? RestInToons: Totally digging the superhero update with Ultimate Spider-Man and Batman: The Brave and the Bold. They bring that comic book essence to the screen. And another comedy about blobs? Guess this one's the era of the blob, huh? ArtsyOwl: As much as I'll miss Steven Universe for its depth and progressivism, I guess I'm ready for something light-hearted. Robotboy and the blob comedy might just be the palate cleanser we need. Here's hoping they deliver some good laughs! MicrobeMania: Definitely a bummer about Ben 10 and SU. Those shows had such depth in storytelling and character development. But Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated is not to be slept on. That iteration has some of the best arcs for our mystery-solving gang! ScienceRules45: Batman: The Brave and the Bold was a gem! It didn't take itself too seriously and had just the right amount of camp. And with Ultimate Spider-Man, looks like we'll still be getting our fix of animated superhero action. HappyMom200: Love the move to Batman and Spider-Man. My kid has been on a real superhero kick, and Scooby-Doo never gets old. At least, not in my household. The blob comedy sounds intriguing--Kids WB isn't afraid to experiment, that's for sure! Admin5: With these cartoon cycles, it's always sad to see some shows go but equally exciting to welcome new titles and welcome back some classics like Robotboy. Remember, fall is just around the corner, so let's keep the conversation going when those new shows hit the screen. Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up where the blob cartoon is revealed to (be one I made up, hopefully I make it as a YouTube series) be named "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" Gloopy is a normal slime blob wheras Glitter lives up to her name as a sparkling one, Also, a mid season show Code Lyoko is premiering just as COTC knocks off for Summer, Also promos for CSC are already airing Thread Title: Revealed: "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" Joins Kids WB + Code Lyoko Mid-Season Premiere! CartoonAficionado: Alright, the mystery's solved! The new blob comedy coming to Kids WB is "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter". Gloopy is your average slime blob, and Glitter is, well, super sparkly! Could be a hit if it's done well. Fingers crossed it's as fun as the name suggests. GreenJelly223: "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter," huh? That's quite the name! I'm all for original content--bringing in some fresh 'slime' to the game. Kudos to the creator, especially if they started on YouTube. That's one giant leap for slime-kind. TheComicNerd21: Between Gloopy and Glitter, I'm expecting some madcap hijinks and, hopefully, some good chemistry. Pun totally intended! It's neat seeing creators move from YouTube to big networks. What a time to be alive! Bacteriophage_: Just saw the promo for Chop Socky Chooks! Honestly, I'd forgotten about that show, but the nostalgia hit me hard. Kids WB really knows how to draw in the old school fans alongside the new ones. AmoebaAmy: Excited to see what "Gloopy and Glitter" brings to the table! It's always refreshing to see new characters and stories. Also, did anyone catch that Code Lyoko is coming back as a mid-season show? That's unexpected! I remember watching that show as a kid--the blend of 2D and 3D animation was so cool. RestInToons: Code Lyoko? No way! That show was my virtual escape. With Craig of the Creek taking a summer break, Code Lyoko has some big shoes to fill. I'm cautiously optimistic. Also, kudos to the person behind "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter". This is indie creators' dream! ArtsyOwl: Craig of the Creek is my comfort show, so knowing it's taking a break has me in my feels. But Code Lyoko might just be the perfect summer binge to replace it. That show was ahead of its time with its virtual world storyline. MicrobeMania: With Chop Socky Chooks, Code Lyoko, and now "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter," I'm sensing a theme of whimsy and adventure. Perfect for a carefree summer! It's gonna be a wild ride on Kids WB. ScienceRules45: Indeed, summer is shaping up to be full of adventure and laughs! I'm curious to see the comedic dynamics between Gloopy and Glitter and how they'll fit into the current lineup. Code Lyoko is an excellent addition for anyone who's into that sci-fi, virtual reality vibe. HappyMom200: Just peeped the promo for Gloopy and Glitter with the kids. They're already quoting lines and chuckling. Also, major props to Kids WB for the diversity in its programming--you've got old hits, modern takes, and now a homegrown web series making it to the big leagues. Admin5: The summer is looking quite adventurous with all the fresh and returning programming we have on our hands! If "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" or Code Lyoko capture your hearts, be sure to come back and let everyone know. Enjoy the shows, everyone, and let's support those indie creators making waves! Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up where another mid-season show premieres, replacing Gumball, The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers Thread Title: Mid-Season Update: The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers Replace Gumball on Kids WB! TheComicNerd21: Big news for Kids WB watchers! "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" is premiering mid-season, taking the spot "The Amazing World of Gumball" left behind. I've got high hopes that these thrill-seeking siblings will bring the same level of zany to the lineup. Can they live up to the hilarity of Gumball, though? That's the big question. GreenJelly223: Gumball's out?! Say it isn't so! That show was a staple! But I remember The Adrenalini Brothers from awhile back...they were full of over-the-top stunts and accents. Hopefully, they can fill the quirky cartoon void that's gonna be left in Gumball's wake. CartoonAficionado: "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" are pure comedic gold with those daredevil antics. Gumball set a high bar for humor and heart, but if you want outrageous adventures and laughs, the Adrenalinis could be just the ticket. ArtsyOwl: I admit, I'll miss the random humor and clever writing of Gumball. It was one of those shows that had something for viewers of all ages. The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers have a different flavor, but I'm definitely willing to give them a shot. Bacteriophage_: Well folks, all good things must come to an end, but at least the high-paced energy of The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers might fill the void. They're not new to the cartoon scene, but let's hope their stunts are as amazing as ever. MicrobeMania: "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" is a throwback! Those guys pull off some wild stunts. Kids WB seems to be aiming for high octane to take Gumball's place. Keeping my fingers crossed that they keep delivering fresh content, even in the form of older gems getting the spotlight again. RestInToons: Guess it's goodbye to Gumball and hello Adrenalini. I remember the brothers having quite the international flair. Their eclectic style should make for a refreshing change of pace. Plus, with Squish and the others, Kids WB's variety is still on point. AmoebaAmy: My kids loved Gumball, so they're a bit gutted. But I think The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers' daredevil acts might just win them over. I'm always down for more shenanigans. Here's hoping they get as much character-driven hilarity as Gumball had. ScienceRules45: Gumball's creativity was unmatched, but The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers? That's a nostalgia trip! Will be interesting to see how a show that's been off the radar for a while resonates with the current audience. HappyMom200: My Gumball marathon nights are coming to an end it seems. The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers have some big shoes to fill, but I'm ready for the laughs. In Kids WB we trust, right? Admin5: Change is part of every TV network's lifecycle. "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" could be what kids WB needs to shake things up. Let's give these fearless brothers a chance and reconvene here to discuss the stunts, humor, and how the show fits into the new dynamic! Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up in fall when the new shows premiere, Lyoko is sticking around, Gumball and Craig are back, but won't be for long, leaving again in January, Also, a user says Skatoony will definitely be back next year, as it has been a summer replacement show since 2018 Thread Title: Fall Premieres are Here! Welcome Back Craig & Gumball + Code Lyoko Stays! GreenJelly223: It's fall premiere season, everyone! And with the leaves changing comes new changes to Kids WB. Code Lyoko has secured its spot on the schedule, which I know some of you are thrilled about. The Amazing World of Gumball and Craig of the Creek are making a short-lived comeback, dipping out again in January. Can't get enough of those two, so I'm here for any time they're on. CartoonAficionado: Great to have Gumball and Craig back, even if it's just for a quick hello and goodbye. It's like that favorite seasonal dish you can't stop craving. And Code Lyoko sticking around? Love that for us--those virtual vibes aren't going anywhere! TheComicNerd21: Ah, the temporary returns of Gumball and Craig are bittersweet. Makes you wish they'd just stick around full-time. But, I gotta say, Code Lyoko keeping its slot is A-okay with me. That's one show I've been seriously getting back into. ArtsyOwl: The quality storytelling in Craig of the Creek will be sorely missed once January rolls around. And Gumball--it just has that rewatchability factor like no other. Soak it up while you can, folks! MicrobeMania: Just dropping in to say that Skatoony is going to be back next summer, and I'm here for it! It's kind of become the unofficial summer tradition since 2018, hasn't it? Always great to see a show that knows how to fill its seasonal shoes. Bacteriophage_: Yeah, Skatoony's like that cool summer camp you get excited about all year. But let's not overlook the fall newcomers too--I'm already setting reminders for Ultimate Spider-Man and Batman: The Brave and the Bold. The superhero binge is real! RestInToons: Mixed feelings about the short-term return of Gumball and Craig of the Creek. At least we know Kids WB is good at giving us something to look forward to. As for Code Lyoko, it's been interesting to see a show from yesteryear find its groove with the audience today. AmoebaAmy: The limited time with Gumball and Craig is better than no time! Let's enjoy the laughs and adventures while they last. And happy to have confirmed scoops like the one about Skatoony return--it's this kind of knowledge that keeps the fandom ticking. ScienceRules45: I've gotten used to the shift and shuffle of Kids WB's schedule. You learn to appreciate what you've got when you've got it. That said, I'm diving headfirst into the nostalgia and newness of this fall's lineup. It's going to be an entertaining season! HappyMom200: I'm grateful for any sprinkles of Craig of the Creek episodes we get! It's such a gem. And does anyone else get way too competitive watching Skatoony, or is that just me? Super stoked about its return next year! Admin5: Some very astute observations and a tangible excitement for the new and returning shows this fall! Let's enjoy this season's offerings, and, as always, keep the conversations engaging as we head into the new year with all its sure-to-be-surprising programming and inevitable farewells. Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up in 2023 where G&G are still rerunning, but Batman, Scooby and Spidey are off, replaced with Ozzy and Drix, World of Quest and Skatoony for summer Thread Title: 2023 Kids WB Update: Ozzy & Drix, World of Quest & Skatoony Take Over Summer! GreenJelly223: Hey toon enthusiasts! As we hit the sunny stride of 2023, Kids WB is switching up the schedule. We're saying bye to Batman, Scooby, and Spidey. But don't despair--Ozzy & Drix, World of Quest, and the ever-reliable Skatoony are here for those summer vibes. Also, "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" are still doing the rerun rounds. Keeping it fresh and funky! CartoonAficionado: Honestly, it's cool to see Ozzy & Drix making a comeback. That show was always under the radar but it delivered some solid laughs plus a bit of body-function education. Let's see how it holds up today! TheComicNerd21: No more Batman and Spidey is a bummer, but you know what? Bring on the Ozzy & Drix and World of Quest! I remember World of Quest being pretty out there with its humor, a good mix of action and oddball characters--definitely fitting for the wacky tone of summer. MicrobeMania: Ozzy & Drix, that's a throwback! I had a feeling it could make a resurgence. Educational and entertaining--that's a tough balance to strike, but that show had it. Also, cheers to year 5 of summer Skatoony--it's tradition at this point! ArtsyOwl: Hey, "Gloopy and Glitter" are still in the reruns, too! Shimmering on--quite literally, thanks to Glitter. It's a quirky and cute show, glad it's still around for the little ones to enjoy. Bacteriophage_: Seeing World of Quest drop into the lineup makes me hopeful that Kids WB is dedicated to keeping variety alive. Adventure, humor, outright weirdness--it's got it all. And combined with the educational fun from Ozzy & Drix, plus the game show laughs from Skatoony? Count me in for the summer! RestInToons: Sayonara superheroes! This season's lineup shows that kids' programming isn't just about capes and villains. It's about variety, surprise, and a touch of nostalgia. Let's get microscopic with Ozzy & Drix and go on a wild ride with Quest and Nestor! AmoebaAmy: Always a tad sad to see the Scooby gang go, but switching up genres keeps things interesting. Ozzy & Drix is kind of like "The Magic School Bus" for the older crowd, and I'm here for it! Plus, Skatoony is something my kids look forward to every year--glad it's not going anywhere! ScienceRules45: I've got to say, I appreciate how Kids WB keeps mixing in educational content amidst all the comedy and action. Ozzy & Drix is a blast from the past that I'm excited to revisit. It's just what we need in a world that could use a refresher on health and the human body! HappyMom200: World of Quest is an underrated treasure, and I'm thrilled it's coming back into the spotlight. It's like that fun summer book series but animated. And Skatoony is practically synonymous with summer now; glad to know some things stay solid. Admin5: The summer outlook is looking diverse and delightful! With shows that cater to every kind of young fan, there's no shortage of entertainment. Let's keep track of these changes and see how they fare in the warm months ahead. Enjoy your summer watching, and stay tuned for updates on what's next!

January 27 2024 Should have seen this coming the day TAWOG and COTC left for good, but Kids WB died on December 30, We now have the CW4Kids, owned by 4Kids Entertainment, and the first schedule change has happened, Squish and The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers have been replaced with Pokemon: Indigo League and Sonic X respectively, The block still has the Kids WB aesthetic, but I expect that to be gone by Easter, Also, another schedule change is coming in a few months, Teen Titans Go, Scooby Doo Mystery Inc and Batman the Brave and the Bold are being replaced with GoGoRiki (Smeshariki), Ultimate Muscle and Kirby: Right Back At Ya in 2 weeks, The remaining KWB shows as of now are Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, Code Lyoko, Ultimate Spider Man (and in 2 weeks, Gloopy and Glitter). The way they went about this was interesting, In December they started airing promos saying that from January 7 the network would be changing it's name, it didn't tell us that 4Kids are now in charge or that there would be new shows, the promo just showed the usual KWB shows like Squish, TAAB, TTG, XS, etc. Also today the promo for the next schedule change (dubbed a Super Duper Late Winter Lineup) has a new slogan "You're signed on to the CW4Kids)CW4Kids" Slow and painful rebrand? , If you're not gonna change the bumpers untill Easter then why reveal your flashy new slogan now. Also the website (thecw4kids.com) STILL says this at the footer "(C) 2024 Warner Bros Discovery, Paramount Global, Nexstar Media Group" Hopefully it is updated to reflect 4Kids's involvement soon. Write a continuationfollow up forum convo where they theorise how the transition will play out, also Yu Gi Oh 5Ds, Chaotic, TMNT: Back to the Sewers and Pokemon Horizons: The Series are earmarked for mid April, so expect JT and XS totalk more about the slow transition, and that GoGoRiki is cute, and that it could be gone by then,primed to take over most of the current comedy cartoons
CHATBOT: Thread Title: CW4Kids: A Slow Transition & The Future of Cartoons on the Block? ToonMasterJay: So, has anyone else noticed how the CW4Kids transition is kinda like watching paint dry? The bumpers feel like Kids WB is haunting us. And they're dropping their new slogan already, but the website footer is still all about the old guard... Mixed signals much? DigitalToonFan: Yeah, the transition is definitely dragging its feet. I mean, if you're going to bring in 4Kids, then do it with a bang! Not this half-Zoom half-real-life meeting vibe. The new lineup switches could be cool though, but I'll miss Squish and The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers for sure. GoGoFan223: Honestly, I'm most excited about GoGoRiki (or Smeshariki for the purists). It's cute and has that potential to be big with the comedy crowd. Less about the action and more laughs--could be the perfect fit for the new direction they're aiming for. SonicXforever: Still processing the swap of Squish for Pokemon and TAAB for Sonic X... I mean, sure, classics! But Sonic X has been rerun how many times now? I guess they're banking on that nostalgia factor to reel us in while they're redecorating. PokeNostalgia101: Not going to lie, I'm excited to have Pokemon Indigo League back--it's like comfort food for my soul. But I hear you all, the change is weirdly slow. I get that it's a big shift from Kids WB to full-on 4Kids ownership, yet you'd think they'd want to make their mark quick. LyokoLover: Low-key glad Code Lyoko and Xiaolin Showdown are sticking around. They've got that unique appeal that isn't easy to replace. But curious how long till that changes with this new "Super Duper Late Winter Lineup." If they're ushering out TTG and Scooby, who's next? Animanga4Life: Ultimate Muscle and Kirby: Right Back At Ya coming to the block brings back fond Saturday morning memories! Although, I do get why some are skeptical; a lot of these shows have seen multiple reruns over the years. WebWader: I keep checking the website hoping it's been updated... No dice. The weird blend of old and new branding isn't helping anyone. At least update the footer to show 4Kids is steering the ship now. How hard can it be? ComicStripKid: The lineup change feels like a balance between targeting the parents who grew up with these shows and trying to appeal to the new gen of cartoon fans. GoGoRiki's charm and simplicity could be their ticket into the latter's hearts. I see a mascot in the making. ToonTalker91: Not thrilled about the slow...
CHATBOT: Thread Title: CW4Kids Mid-Feb Lineup is Live! Balance of Old and New + Website Updates DigitalToonFan: The balance has been struck, folks! Five 4Kids classics--Pokemon, Sonic, Ultimate Muscle, Kirby, and GoGoRiki--and five Kids WB staples--Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, Ultimate Spider Man, Gloopy and Glitter, and Code Lyoko. It's a mix of eras in one block! ToonMasterJay: Checked out the CW4Kids website, they finally ditched the old footer. It's official, this ship is sailing under the 4Kids flag now. Nice to see they're stepping up their game with accounts and points, plus some games to boot! Animanga4Life: 4Kids moving in with accounts and points? Sounds like they're setting up a cool rewards system. And that might just get more kids invested in the website beyond streaming shows--a savvy move. GoGoFan223: GoGoRiki getting prime time with the big 4Kids dogs is great news. Its cute factor is off the charts. Could be the one to round out the new vibe CW4Kids is going for if they play their cards right. SonicXforever: Glad to see Sonic racing into the lineup. It's about time he got back into the limelight. Now to see how he fares among the newer offerings. Talk about a speed battle! PokeNostalgia101: Pokemon getting its rightful place has me all fired up! But it's kinda odd to still see show pages for the ousted shows on the website. Anyone else notice that? Hopefully, they'll clear that up soon. LyokoLover: The fact that Code Lyoko is sticking around amidst all the changes shows its resilience. Maybe 4Kids recognizes the gold they have with some of these Kids WB shows. The perfect yin to their yang. ComicStripKid: Well, can't say 4Kids isn't taking a balanced approach to this transition. Keeping half the lineup from Kids WB seems like a strategic way to ensure they don't lose the existing audience while they woo new viewers with nostalgia and updated features. WebWader: The website is getting there, slowly but surely. With account functionality and games, it looks like 4Kids is channeling some vintage interactivity magic. Here's to mission: engage the digitally-savvy generation! ToonTalker91: Seeing "(C) 2024 4Kids Entertainment" at the bottom of the website gives me mixed emotions--it's good to see they're updating stuff, but the nostalgia for Kids WB is real. Any bets on how long Gloopy and Glitter can hold out? Admin_4KidsRevamp: Thanks for sticking with us through the changes! We're excited about the new lineup and website features, and this is just ...

USER: Thread Title: Squish Cartoon Coming to Kids WB! Mid-Season Madness GreenJelly223: Hey Squish fans! Did you guys hear the news? There's a Squish cartoon in the works and it's hitting Kids WB's mid-season lineup! Can't wait to see our favorite amoeba make the jump from page to screen! MicrobeMania: No way, this is awesome! Squish has been one of my favorite graphic novel series for my kids. They're going to freak out! Have they announced who's behind the animation or any voice actors yet? AmoebaAmy: OMG, this made my day! I stumbled onto the news on Twitter but wasn't sure if it was real. I just hope they keep the charm of the comics. The sense of humor in Squish is just right for a cartoon! ScienceRules45: @MicrobeMania I read that the team behind some of the recent popular cartoons is on board for this. As for voice actors, nothing's announced yet. I'm crossing my fingers they get some quality talent. Hoping for some great chemistry between Squish, Pod, and Peggy. TheComicNerd21: True, voice acting can make or break a cartoon adaptation. I'm a bit skeptical, tbh. Sometimes these transitions lose the spirit of the original material. But I'll reserve judgment until we get a trailer or something. ArtsyOwl: Has anyone heard about the art style yet? The simplistic yet expressive style of the books is super charming. Kids WB tends to go for flashier animation, though I hope they keep it close to the spirit of the Squish comics. HappyMom200: I just hope they tackle the educational aspects well. My kids learned so much about microorganisms from these books while laughing their heads off. It'll be great for them to watch Squish's adventures! BioGeek: Yes! Education through entertainment is the best. I mean, who knew an amoeba could make science this fun? And considering we've all become amateur virologists lately (thanks, 2020), the timing couldn't be better. GreenJelly223: For sure, @BioGeek. They have a chance here to really create something that's as informational as it is entertaining. I also love how the books touch on themes of friendship and acceptance. If they keep that intact, it's going to be a hit. MicrobeMania: Anybody have any insider scoop on when we might be getting a peek at the animation or the voice cast? I'm super eager to see anything at this point! Bacteriophage_: Rumors say a teaser might drop sometime in the spring. Keep your eyes peeled and your streaming devices ready! AmoebaAmy: Well, here's hoping Kids WB keeps the slime rolling! Can't wait to see our little squishy buddy in action. Let's keep this thread updated with any new info! Admin5: This thread has been locked due to its inactivity over 30 days. Please feel free to open a new one if you have more news or want to continue the discussion about the upcoming Squish cartoon. Write a follow up where the premiere is in mid March, Also, Apple and Onion is being replaced by the return of reruns of Xiaolin Showdown, also TTG, Gumball and Johnny Test are still the flagships, Also The Tom and Jerry Show is over, and will be replaced by Steven Universe reruns in May Thread Title: Squish Premiere Date and Schedule Changes on Kids WB! Bacteriophage_: Hey everyone, big news! The Squish cartoon is set to premiere in mid-March! Clear your calendars and get ready for some amoeba action! Who's excited? CartoonAficionado: Finally, some concrete dates! I've been keeping an eye out since our last thread went quiet. Mid-March is sooner than I expected. Also heard about some schedule shake-ups. Looks like Apple and Onion is getting shelved for the Xiaolin Showdown reruns. Not sure how I feel about that one. AmoebaAmy: Squish is starting soon?! That's awesome! I'm totally having a viewing party with my kids. But wow, Apple and Onion out for Xiaolin Showdown...nostalgia trip, anyone? I did love that show, but it's a bit of a genre leap from Apple and Onion. RestInToons: RIP The Tom and Jerry Show. Kinda saw that ending coming. And to be replaced by Steven Universe reruns in May? I need new cartoons, not just rewinds. But Steven Universe is still a gem, at least. MicrobeMania: No more Tom and Jerry? That's the end of an era. Though, to be fair, SU reruns are solid. It's not every day you get a show that tackles heavy themes with magical aliens. Still, can't help but hope we get some fresh blood in the lineup eventually. ScienceRules45: True, new content is key, but at least we have Squish! And with TTG, Gumball, and Johnny Test holding the fort as flagships, I think Kids WB has a pretty balanced mix. Squish might just be the breath of fresh air we need right now. GreenJelly223: So, mid-March for Squish, that's great! Does anyone know if that's going to affect TTG, Gumball, or Johnny Test air times? I know they're the heavy hitters, just hoping Squish gets a good slot that doesn't clash. TheComicNerd21: Haven't seen anything about time changes for the flagships. I reckon Squish will find its place without much issue. Kids WB tends to do well with scheduling around their mainstays. And let's face it--TTG is practically unmovable at this point. HappyMom200: My kids will be over the moon with the return of Xiaolin Showdown. I loved it as a kid, too. It's going to be a mix of new and old at our house with Squish and the reruns. I think Kids WB might just pull off this balance. Still, hoping those reruns are just placeholders for future original content. ArtsyOwl: I'm just happy Squish is making its debut! Sure, schedule changes are always a bit of a rollercoaster, but that's the nature of TV, right? Out with the old, in with the new... and sometimes back in with the old! Admin5: Friendly reminder to keep industry rumor discussions civil. Looking forward to seeing how Squish is received by the community here! Let's revisit this thread after the premiere to share our thoughts. And, as always, stay tuned for any further schedule updates from Kids WB. Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up during the summer, The summer lineup has TTG, Gumball, Steven Universe, Xiaolin Showdown, Johnny Test, Squish, Skatoony, Scooby Doo and Guess Who, Looney Tunes Cartoons and Craig of the Creek, Also, new episodes of Ben 10, Looney Tunes Cartoons, Teen Titans Go, Craig of the Creek and Johnny Test return in September Thread Title: Kids WB Summer Lineup + Fall New Episodes Info! GreenJelly223: Summer's heating up, folks, and so is Kids WB's lineup! We're looking at TTG, Gumball, Steven Universe, and Xiaolin Showdown reruns. Plus, Squish, Skatoony, Scooby Doo and Guess Who, Looney Tunes Cartoons, and Craig of the Creek are all part of the mix. How's everyone feeling about the current programming? CartoonAficionado: Honestly, it's a bit of a mixed bag, but I'm not complaining! New fans are getting a taste of some classic toons with Xiaolin Showdown, and Squish has been a pleasant surprise--really nailing it. Plus, Craig of the Creek is always solid. It's like a buffet of different cartoon flavors this summer. Bacteriophage_: And don't forget what's coming in the fall - new episodes of Ben 10, Looney Tunes Cartoons, Teen Titans Go, Craig of the Creek, and Johnny Test. September can't come soon enough! AmoebaAmy: Squish has been an absolute delight! My kids adore it, and it's turning into our little summer tradition to watch together. As much as I love TTG and Gumball, it's Squish that has us tuning in with the most excitement. TheComicNerd21: A heads-up for all the true toon fans out there: new episodes for some of these shows are usually a blast. I've got high hopes for the fall, especially for Craig of the Creek--they've been consistently knocking it out of the park. ScienceRules45: I'm just glad we have such variety. Keeps the channel interesting. Summer is always tricky with kids home all day, but this lineup has something for everybody. ArtsyOwl: Agreed on the variety. The blend of classic and contemporary shows has me responding like I'm five and thirteen all at once. By the way, the art in the latest season of Looney Tunes Cartoons has been stellar. Can't wait to see what they do next. MicrobeMania: I am surprised how well Skatoony holds up. It's not everyone's cup of tea, but the quizzing with cartoons is unique. And with Scooby Doo and Guess Who featured, it feels like we've got a bit of a detective theme going on. Or is it just me? RestInToons: September seems pretty far, but I got a feeling that new Teen Titans Go and Johnny Test episodes will make some serious waves. Ben 10, too, has been gearing up for something big, at least that's the vibe. HappyMom200: It's a stable lineup for sure. Steven Universe reruns are still a hit in my house. Plus, I appreciate the educational value in shows like Squish. Keeps the kids learning even out of school--parents' summer dream! Admin5: Great to see such positivity about the lineup! As always, discuss your favorite shows, but please remember no spoilers for unaired episodes. Let's reconvene in this thread when the new episodes drop in September to share our thoughts and reviews! Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up where Robotboy is added to the schedule the next year in May 2022 when Summer begins, B10, LTC and SU are leaving, Robotboy, Skatoony and Chop Socky Chooks are taking their place, Also in the fall, we have a few new shows, Ultimate Spider-Man, Batman: The Brave and the bold and Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated, Also a new acquired comedy cartoon about 2 blobs Thread Title: Kids WB Schedule Shakeup - Hello Robotboy, So Long Ben 10 & Others! GreenJelly223: Hold onto your remotes, toon fans! Coming up next in May 2022, just as summer kicks off, Kids WB is adding Robotboy to the lineup. It's a nostalgia hit for sure but sad to see some good ones like Ben 10, Looney Tunes Cartoons, and Steven Universe leave us. Thoughts? TheComicNerd21: Man, Robotboy brings me back. Haven't seen that little guy in AGES. Sad to see Ben 10 go; it was always a solid watch. But, this is the life of a cartoon fan, right? Out with the old, in with the... older? Bacteriophage_: Robotboy's return is quite a surprise. It had that classic boy-and-his-robot vibe. Also, Skatoony and Chop Socky Chooks? That's quite the throwback. For those who don't remember, Chop Socky Chooks was this wild mix of kung fu and chickens--only in cartoons, folks! CartoonAficionado: Don't forget about the fall bonanza! Kids WB is loading up with some heavy hitters--Ultimate Spider-Man, Batman: The Brave and the Bold, and Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated. Plus, that new comedy about two blobs? Can't find much on it, but new content is always exciting! AmoebaAmy: Wait, so we're swapping out some superhero action with... different superhero action, and we're keeping the mystery with Scooby-Doo. And do I smell a strong comedy theme building up with the two blob cartoon? RestInToons: Totally digging the superhero update with Ultimate Spider-Man and Batman: The Brave and the Bold. They bring that comic book essence to the screen. And another comedy about blobs? Guess this one's the era of the blob, huh? ArtsyOwl: As much as I'll miss Steven Universe for its depth and progressivism, I guess I'm ready for something light-hearted. Robotboy and the blob comedy might just be the palate cleanser we need. Here's hoping they deliver some good laughs! MicrobeMania: Definitely a bummer about Ben 10 and SU. Those shows had such depth in storytelling and character development. But Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated is not to be slept on. That iteration has some of the best arcs for our mystery-solving gang! ScienceRules45: Batman: The Brave and the Bold was a gem! It didn't take itself too seriously and had just the right amount of camp. And with Ultimate Spider-Man, looks like we'll still be getting our fix of animated superhero action. HappyMom200: Love the move to Batman and Spider-Man. My kid has been on a real superhero kick, and Scooby-Doo never gets old. At least, not in my household. The blob comedy sounds intriguing--Kids WB isn't afraid to experiment, that's for sure! Admin5: With these cartoon cycles, it's always sad to see some shows go but equally exciting to welcome new titles and welcome back some classics like Robotboy. Remember, fall is just around the corner, so let's keep the conversation going when those new shows hit the screen. Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up where the blob cartoon is revealed to (be one I made up, hopefully I make it as a YouTube series) be named "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" Gloopy is a normal slime blob wheras Glitter lives up to her name as a sparkling one, Also, a mid season show Code Lyoko is premiering just as COTC knocks off for Summer, Also promos for CSC are already airing Thread Title: Revealed: "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" Joins Kids WB + Code Lyoko Mid-Season Premiere! CartoonAficionado: Alright, the mystery's solved! The new blob comedy coming to Kids WB is "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter". Gloopy is your average slime blob, and Glitter is, well, super sparkly! Could be a hit if it's done well. Fingers crossed it's as fun as the name suggests. GreenJelly223: "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter," huh? That's quite the name! I'm all for original content--bringing in some fresh 'slime' to the game. Kudos to the creator, especially if they started on YouTube. That's one giant leap for slime-kind. TheComicNerd21: Between Gloopy and Glitter, I'm expecting some madcap hijinks and, hopefully, some good chemistry. Pun totally intended! It's neat seeing creators move from YouTube to big networks. What a time to be alive! Bacteriophage_: Just saw the promo for Chop Socky Chooks! Honestly, I'd forgotten about that show, but the nostalgia hit me hard. Kids WB really knows how to draw in the old school fans alongside the new ones. AmoebaAmy: Excited to see what "Gloopy and Glitter" brings to the table! It's always refreshing to see new characters and stories. Also, did anyone catch that Code Lyoko is coming back as a mid-season show? That's unexpected! I remember watching that show as a kid--the blend of 2D and 3D animation was so cool. RestInToons: Code Lyoko? No way! That show was my virtual escape. With Craig of the Creek taking a summer break, Code Lyoko has some big shoes to fill. I'm cautiously optimistic. Also, kudos to the person behind "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter". This is indie creators' dream! ArtsyOwl: Craig of the Creek is my comfort show, so knowing it's taking a break has me in my feels. But Code Lyoko might just be the perfect summer binge to replace it. That show was ahead of its time with its virtual world storyline. MicrobeMania: With Chop Socky Chooks, Code Lyoko, and now "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter," I'm sensing a theme of whimsy and adventure. Perfect for a carefree summer! It's gonna be a wild ride on Kids WB. ScienceRules45: Indeed, summer is shaping up to be full of adventure and laughs! I'm curious to see the comedic dynamics between Gloopy and Glitter and how they'll fit into the current lineup. Code Lyoko is an excellent addition for anyone who's into that sci-fi, virtual reality vibe. HappyMom200: Just peeped the promo for Gloopy and Glitter with the kids. They're already quoting lines and chuckling. Also, major props to Kids WB for the diversity in its programming--you've got old hits, modern takes, and now a homegrown web series making it to the big leagues. Admin5: The summer is looking quite adventurous with all the fresh and returning programming we have on our hands! If "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" or Code Lyoko capture your hearts, be sure to come back and let everyone know. Enjoy the shows, everyone, and let's support those indie creators making waves! Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up where another mid-season show premieres, replacing Gumball, The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers Thread Title: Mid-Season Update: The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers Replace Gumball on Kids WB! TheComicNerd21: Big news for Kids WB watchers! "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" is premiering mid-season, taking the spot "The Amazing World of Gumball" left behind. I've got high hopes that these thrill-seeking siblings will bring the same level of zany to the lineup. Can they live up to the hilarity of Gumball, though? That's the big question. GreenJelly223: Gumball's out?! Say it isn't so! That show was a staple! But I remember The Adrenalini Brothers from awhile back...they were full of over-the-top stunts and accents. Hopefully, they can fill the quirky cartoon void that's gonna be left in Gumball's wake. CartoonAficionado: "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" are pure comedic gold with those daredevil antics. Gumball set a high bar for humor and heart, but if you want outrageous adventures and laughs, the Adrenalinis could be just the ticket. ArtsyOwl: I admit, I'll miss the random humor and clever writing of Gumball. It was one of those shows that had something for viewers of all ages. The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers have a different flavor, but I'm definitely willing to give them a shot. Bacteriophage_: Well folks, all good things must come to an end, but at least the high-paced energy of The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers might fill the void. They're not new to the cartoon scene, but let's hope their stunts are as amazing as ever. MicrobeMania: "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" is a throwback! Those guys pull off some wild stunts. Kids WB seems to be aiming for high octane to take Gumball's place. Keeping my fingers crossed that they keep delivering fresh content, even in the form of older gems getting the spotlight again. RestInToons: Guess it's goodbye to Gumball and hello Adrenalini. I remember the brothers having quite the international flair. Their eclectic style should make for a refreshing change of pace. Plus, with Squish and the others, Kids WB's variety is still on point. AmoebaAmy: My kids loved Gumball, so they're a bit gutted. But I think The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers' daredevil acts might just win them over. I'm always down for more shenanigans. Here's hoping they get as much character-driven hilarity as Gumball had. ScienceRules45: Gumball's creativity was unmatched, but The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers? That's a nostalgia trip! Will be interesting to see how a show that's been off the radar for a while resonates with the current audience. HappyMom200: My Gumball marathon nights are coming to an end it seems. The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers have some big shoes to fill, but I'm ready for the laughs. In Kids WB we trust, right? Admin5: Change is part of every TV network's lifecycle. "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" could be what kids WB needs to shake things up. Let's give these fearless brothers a chance and reconvene here to discuss the stunts, humor, and how the show fits into the new dynamic!

Welcome Back Craig & Gumball + Code Lyoko Stays! GreenJelly223: It's fall premiere season, everyone! And with the leaves changing comes new changes to Kids WB. Code Lyoko has secured its spot on the schedule, which I know some of you are thrilled about. The Amazing World of Gumball and Craig of the Creek are making a short-lived comeback, dipping out again in January. Can't get enough of those two, so I'm here for any time they're on. CartoonAficionado: Great to have Gumball and Craig back, even if it's just for a quick hello and goodbye. It's like that favorite seasonal dish you can't stop craving. And Code Lyoko sticking around? Love that for us--those virtual vibes aren't going anywhere! TheComicNerd21: Ah, the temporary returns of Gumball and Craig are bittersweet. Makes you wish they'd just stick around full-time. But, I gotta say, Code Lyoko keeping its slot is A-okay with me. That's one show I've been seriously getting back into. ArtsyOwl: The quality storytelling in Craig of the Creek will be sorely missed once January rolls around. And Gumball--it just has that rewatchability factor like no other. Soak it up while you can, folks! MicrobeMania: Just dropping in to say that Skatoony is going to be back next summer, and I'm here for it! It's kind of become the unofficial summer tradition since 2018, hasn't it? Always great to see a show that knows how to fill its seasonal shoes. Bacteriophage_: Yeah, Skatoony's like that cool summer camp you get excited about all year. But let's not overlook the fall newcomers too--I'm already setting reminders for Ultimate Spider-Man and Batman: The Brave and the Bold. The superhero binge is real! RestInToons: Mixed feelings about the short-term return of Gumball and Craig of the Creek. At least we know Kids WB is good at giving us something to look forward to. As for Code Lyoko, it's been interesting to see a show from yesteryear find its groove with the audience today. AmoebaAmy: The limited time with Gumball and Craig is better than no time! Let's enjoy the laughs and adventures while they last. And happy to have confirmed scoops like the one about Skatoony return--it's this kind of knowledge that keeps the fandom ticking. ScienceRules45: I've gotten used to the shift and shuffle of Kids WB's schedule. You learn to appreciate what you've got when you've got it. That said, I'm diving headfirst into the nostalgia and newness of this fall's lineup. It's going to be an entertaining season! HappyMom200: I'm grateful for any sprinkles of Craig of the Creek episodes we get! It's such a gem. And does anyone else get way too competitive watching Skatoony, or is that just me? Super stoked about its return next year! Admin5: Some very astute observations and a tangible excitement for the new and returning shows this fall! Let's enjoy this season's offerings, and, as always, keep the conversations engaging as we head into the new year with all its sure-to-be-surprising programming and inevitable farewells.

GreenJelly223: Hey toon enthusiasts! As we hit the sunny stride of 2023, Kids WB is switching up the schedule. We're saying bye to Batman, Scooby, and Spidey. But don't despair--Ozzy & Drix, World of Quest, and the ever-reliable Skatoony are here for those summer vibes. Also, "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" are still doing the rerun rounds. Keeping it fresh and funky! CartoonAficionado: Honestly, it's cool to see Ozzy & Drix making a comeback. That show was always under the radar but it delivered some solid laughs plus a bit of body-function education. Let's see how it holds up today! TheComicNerd21: No more Batman and Spidey is a bummer, but you know what? Bring on the Ozzy & Drix and World of Quest! I remember World of Quest being pretty out there with its humor, a good mix of action and oddball characters--definitely fitting for the wacky tone of summer. MicrobeMania: Ozzy & Drix, that's a throwback! I had a feeling it could make a resurgence. Educational and entertaining--that's a tough balance to strike, but that show had it. Also, cheers to year 5 of summer Skatoony--it's tradition at this point! ArtsyOwl: Hey, "Gloopy and Glitter" are still in the reruns, too! Shimmering on--quite literally, thanks to Glitter. It's a quirky and cute show, glad it's still around for the little ones to enjoy. Bacteriophage_: Seeing World of Quest drop into the lineup makes me hopeful that Kids WB is dedicated to keeping variety alive. Adventure, humor, outright weirdness--it's got it all. And combined with the educational fun from Ozzy & Drix, plus the game show laughs from Skatoony? Count me in for the summer! RestInToons: Sayonara superheroes! This season's lineup shows that kids' programming isn't just about capes and villains. It's about variety, surprise, and a touch of nostalgia. Let's get microscopic with Ozzy & Drix and go on a wild ride with Quest and Nestor! AmoebaAmy: Always a tad sad to see the Scooby gang go, but switching up genres keeps things interesting. Ozzy & Drix is kind of like "The Magic School Bus" for the older crowd, and I'm here for it! Plus, Skatoony is something my kids look forward to every year--glad it's not going anywhere! ScienceRules45: I've got to say, I appreciate how Kids WB keeps mixing in educational content amidst all the comedy and action. Ozzy & Drix is a blast from the past that I'm excited to revisit. It's just what we need in a world that could use a refresher on health and the human body! HappyMom200: World of Quest is an underrated treasure, and I'm thrilled it's coming back into the spotlight. It's like that fun summer book series but animated. And Skatoony is practically synonymous with summer now; glad to know some things stay solid. Admin5: The summer outlook is looking diverse and delightful! With shows that cater to every kind of young fan, there's no shortage of entertainment.

January 27 2024 Should have seen this coming the day TAWOG and COTC left for good, but Kids WB died on December 30, We now have the CW4Kids, owned by 4Kids Entertainment, and the first schedule change has happened, Squish and The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers have been replaced with Pokemon: Indigo League and Sonic X respectively, The block still has the Kids WB aesthetic, but I expect that to be gone by Easter, Also, another schedule change is coming in a few months, Teen Titans Go, Scooby Doo Mystery Inc and Batman the Brave and the Bold are being replaced with GoGoRiki (Smeshariki), Ultimate Muscle and Kirby: Right Back At Ya in 2 weeks, The remaining KWB shows as of now are Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, Code Lyoko, Ultimate Spider Man (and in 2 weeks, Gloopy and Glitter). The way they went about this was interesting, In December they started airing promos saying that from January 7 the network would be changing it's name, it didn't tell us that 4Kids are now in charge or that there would be new shows, the promo just showed the usual KWB shows like Squish, TAAB, TTG, XS, etc. Also today the promo for the next schedule change (dubbed a Super Duper Late Winter Lineup) has a new slogan "You're signed on to the CW4Kids" Slow and painful rebrand? , If you're not gonna change the bumpers untill Easter then why reveal your flashy new slogan now. Also the website (thecw4kids.com) STILL says this at the footer "(C)"(c) 2024 Warner Bros Discovery, Paramount Global, Nexstar Media Group" Hopefully it is updated to reflect 4Kids's involvement soon. Write a follow up forum convo where they talk more about the slow transition, and that GoGoRiki is cute, and that it could be primed to take over most of the current comedy cartoons Thread Title: CW4Kids: A Slow Transition & The Future of Cartoons on the Block? ToonMasterJay: So, has anyone else noticed how the CW4Kids transition is kinda like watching paint dry? The bumpers feel like Kids WB is haunting us. And they're dropping their new slogan already, but the website footer is still all about the old guard... Mixed signals much? DigitalToonFan: Yeah, the transition is definitely dragging its feet. I mean, if you're going to bring in 4Kids, then do it with a bang! Not this half-Zoom half-real-life meeting vibe. The new lineup switches could be cool though, but I'll miss Squish and The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers for sure. GoGoFan223: Honestly, I'm most excited about GoGoRiki (or Smeshariki for the purists). It's cute and has that potential to be big with the comedy crowd. Less about the action and more laughs--could be the perfect fit for the new direction they're aiming for. SonicXforever: Still processing the swap of Squish for Pokemon and TAAB for Sonic X... I mean, sure, classics! But Sonic X has been rerun how many times now? I guess they're banking on that nostalgia factor to reel us in while they're redecorating. PokeNostalgia101: Not going to lie, I'm excited to have Pokemon Indigo League back--it's like comfort food for my soul. But I hear you all, the change is weirdly slow. I get that it's a big shift from Kids WB to full-on 4Kids ownership, yet you'd think they'd want to make their mark quick. LyokoLover: Low-key glad Code Lyoko and Xiaolin Showdown are sticking around. They've got that unique appeal that isn't easy to replace. But curious how long till that changes with this new "Super Duper Late Winter Lineup." If they're ushering out TTG and Scooby, who's next? Animanga4Life: Ultimate Muscle and Kirby: Right Back At Ya coming to the block brings back fond Saturday morning memories! Although, I do get why some are skeptical; a lot of these shows have seen multiple reruns over the years. WebWader: I keep checking the website hoping it's been updated... No dice. The weird blend of old and new branding isn't helping anyone. At least update the footer to show 4Kids is steering the ship now. How hard can it be? ComicStripKid: The lineup change feels like a balance between targeting the parents who grew up with these shows and trying to appeal to the new gen of cartoon fans. GoGoRiki's charm and simplicity could be their ticket into the latter's hearts. I see a mascot in the making. ToonTalker91: Not thrilled about the slow pace here. It's like we're stuck in Kids WB limbo. I miss the days when a rebrand meant a fresh start, not this lingering goodbye. Curious how Gloopy and Glitter will fare with the rest of the changes looming... Will they be the last ones standing? Admin_4KidsRevamp: Please bear with us during this transition. We're working hard to bring a fresh and exciting lineup while honoring the legacy of what came before. Believe us, it'll be worth the wait! Stay tuned for more updates and enjoy the shows in the meantime.

Balance of Old and New + Website Updates DigitalToonFan: The balance has been struck, folks! Five 4Kids classics--Pokemon, Sonic, Ultimate Muscle, Kirby, and GoGoRiki--and five Kids WB staples--Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, Ultimate Spider Man, Gloopy and Glitter, and Code Lyoko. It's a mix of eras in one block! ToonMasterJay: Checked out the CW4Kids website, they finally ditched the old footer. It's official, this ship is sailing under the 4Kids flag now. Nice to see they're stepping up their game with accounts and points, plus some games to boot! Animanga4Life: 4Kids moving in with accounts and points? Sounds like they're setting up a cool rewards system. And that might just get more kids invested in the website beyond streaming shows--a savvy move. GoGoFan223: GoGoRiki getting prime time with the big 4Kids dogs is great news. Its cute factor is off the charts. Could be the one to round out the new vibe CW4Kids is going for if they play their cards right. SonicXforever: Glad to see Sonic racing into the lineup. It's about time he got back into the limelight. Now to see how he fares among the newer offerings. Talk about a speed battle! PokeNostalgia101: Pokemon getting its rightful place has me all fired up! But it's kinda odd to still see show pages for the ousted shows on the website. Anyone else notice that? Hopefully, they'll clear that up soon. LyokoLover: The fact that Code Lyoko is sticking around amidst all the changes shows its resilience. Maybe 4Kids recognizes the gold they have with some of these Kids WB shows. The perfect yin to their yang. ComicStripKid: Well, can't say 4Kids isn't taking a balanced approach to this transition. Keeping half the lineup from Kids WB seems like a strategic way to ensure they don't lose the existing audience while they woo new viewers with nostalgia and updated features. WebWader: The website is getting there, slowly but surely. With account functionality and games, it looks like 4Kids is channeling some vintage interactivity magic. Here's to mission: engage the digitally-savvy generation! ToonTalker91: Seeing "(c) 2024 4Kids Entertainment" at the bottom of the website gives me mixed emotions--it's good to see they're updating stuff, but the nostalgia for Kids WB is real. Any bets on how long Gloopy and Glitter can hold out? Admin_4KidsRevamp: Thanks for sticking with us through the changes! We're excited about the new lineup and website features, and this is just the beginning.

Plus, line-up's getting shaken up again--big time! DigitalToonFan: Heard the scoop that Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, and Ultimate Spider Man are waving goodbye. But we're keeping the virtual adventures of Code Lyoko and the quirky "Gloopy and Glitter"--two survivors of the cull. Animanga4Life: For the manga/anime fans, Pokemon Horizons: The Series is swooping in to replace the original Pokemon series! Exciting to see some new journeys and battles. Gotta love the continuous evolution of the Pokemon franchise on the CW4Kids. GoGoFan223: And what about that triple threat joining the fray? Chaotic, TMNT: Back to the Sewer, and Viva Pinata are about to spice things up! Feels like 4Kids is tossing in as many flavors as they can to see what sticks. SonicXforever: Greatest thing about CW4Kids right now? They're not afraid to mix it up. The digital look update has me hyped--it's like the block is leveling up. Hopefully, it adds a fresh vibe that resonates with the digital generation. PokeNostalgia101: Pokemon Horizons: The Series will def pull in the crowd looking for that cutting-edge anime action. Pokemon always knows how to keep things fresh. LyokoLover: Sad to see some old friends go, but Code Lyoko holding strong gives me hope. It's like our own little slice of stability in this whirlwind of changes. ComicStripKid: With the digital online style coming, CW4Kids is clearly gunning for a certain look and feel. Let's just cross our fingers it blends seamlessly with the cartoon essence we all tune in for. WebWader: Do you think bringing in Chaotic, TMNT, and Viva Pinata is going too far back into the vault? I'm all for nostalgia, but I hope they still invest in newer properties or original content. Balance is key. ToonTalker91: Big stuff with Pokemon Horizons; it's been creating buzz all over! As for Chaotic and TMNT: Back to the Sewer, that's unexpected! Not so sure what to expect from Viva Pinata, though... a wildcard entry, I'd say. Admin_4KidsRevamp: Expect the unexpected with CW4Kids!

New Shows + Fresh GoGoRiki Episodes! AnimeAdventurer101: Just in, 4Kids is eyeing a full anime assault this Fall! "Demon Slayer," which they're rebranding as "Vampire Hunters," is coming despite expected heavy censorship. We're also getting "Smile Precure" under the guise of "Glitter Force," and "Yo-Kai Watch" is making a splash. Plus, new "GoGoRiki" episodes on the horizon! ToonMasterJay: "Vampire Hunters" better not be sliced and diced to oblivion; "Demon Slayer" thrives on its action! But knowing 4Kids, our expectations for uncensored content should be--well, tempered. Hopefully, they keep enough of the original spirit intact. DigitalToonFan: "Glitter Force," huh? Reminds me of their old "Sailor Moon" days. "Smile Precure" is a great series, so I'm curious how much will be changed. As long as the essence is there, I suppose it'll capture the audience it's meant for. GoGoFan223: More GoGoRiki, sign me up! That show has been a surprisingly funny sleeper hit. It's got its own quirky charm that's been keeping kids and some of us adults entertained. MangaMogul: Alright, "Yo-Kai Watch" making the fall line-up is sweet. I'm cautiously optimistic about how it will be adapted. It has a lot of cultural references that I hope don't get lost in translation. SonicXforever: Honestly, I'm a mix of excited and nervous. The anime choices are solid, but we all remember how 4Kids framed other shows in the past. As long as they don't stray too far from the source material, it could work out. PokeNostalgia101: Whoever pitched "Demon Slayer" as "Vampire Hunters" deserves a... medal? It's certainly a creative spin. Fingers crossed that "Yo-Kai Watch" retains its charm and doesn't face the same fate. WebWader: It's a major throwback to 4Kids' old strategies--rebranding anime with Western sensibilities. Sometimes it worked, sometimes not so much. Here's hoping for the former this time around without losing too much authenticity. ComicStripKid: "Glitter Force," eh? We'll see. It's gotta be a tricky balance of keeping the action-friendly for younger audiences while not alienating the fans. And yo, new GoGoRiki episodes--those character designs just stick with you. LyokoLover: 4Kids and anime have a... complicated history. But I'm here for the anime, so I'll give "Vampire Hunters" and "Glitter Force" a chance. As for "Yo-Kai Watch," it could be a hit if handled with care. ToonTalker91: The anime announcements have potential, but the true test will be the execution. "Demon Slayer" is huge, so even a watered-down "Vampire Hunters" might hook viewers. Excited for new GoGoRiki eps and curious about "Glitter Force" as well. Admin_4KidsRevamp: We've heard your concerns and your excitement! Stick with us as we dive into Fall's diverse programming, which will definitely include fan-favorite anime action and some fantastic comedy. Changes can be good--especially with new GoGoRiki episodes on the way. Stay tuned!

CHATBOT: Thread Title: Missing The Adrenalini Antics on CW4Kids! NostalgiaNate: Is it just me or does anyone else seriously miss The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers on the lineup? Ever since CW4Kids started cycling in all these new shows, I can't help but crave some of that high-flying, stunt-tastic fun the brothers used to bring. #AdrenaliniWithdrawal CartoonCrazeDude: NostalgiaNate, you're not alone! I didn't realize how attached I was to those adrenaline junkies. The current slate is cool and all, but nothing quite matches the unique flavor the Adrenalinis brought to the table. AdrenalinerFan101: I feel you! The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers had that special blend of humor and action. Plus, their catchphrases were *chef's kiss*. "Yahzaa!" None of the current shows have that same circus appeal, you know? ToonMaestroX: The lineup changes are bittersweet. I get that Chaotic, GoGoRiki, Sonic X, and Pokemon are solid, but the Adrenalinis had such a wacky premise. It was nice having something off the beaten path of typical superhero and monster battles. PixelPals: I'm all for the anime excitement, but The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers had this old-school charm to it. It's like watching those silent movies where everything was so expressive and over the top! NostalgiaNate: Right, @PixelPals? And now with Chaotic confirmed to stay, another show has to go. I get the business side of things, but can't we have a bit of room for nostalgia? AnimeAce: As much as I'm excited for the new anime, I'll always have a special place in my heart for The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers. I remember rushing home from school just in time to catch their latest shenanigans. ChangeIsHard: Change is always tough, especially when it comes to our favorite shows. With The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers, I feel like we lost a gem that had a lot of potential to grow even more. ToonConservator: The one silver lining is that shows like The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers usually enjoy a renaissance down the line. Hoping they'll make a comeback, even if it's just for reruns or on a streaming platform. Admin_4KidsRevamp: We love hearing about your favorites and understand the connection fans have with all of our shows. While we're focused on bringing in new content for the fall, who knows what the future may hold. Maybe the Adrenalinis will soar again one day. Keep the feedback coming!

CHATBOT: Thread Title: CW4Kids Announces "Vault" Series for Classic Shorts! ToonArchivist: So, word's out that CW4Kids is launching a "Vault" series, featuring classic shorts during intermissions. It's like a micro-time machine! Think we'll see any obscure goodies like the old Fox Box or WB rarities? RetroToonLover: This "Vault" concept has potential! I'm hoping for comebacks from the golden eras--maybe some "Krypto the Superdog" or even older "Pokemon" shorts that we haven't seen in ages. What's everyone else wishing for? ShortFormFanatic: Love the idea! Shorts can be a treasure trove of content that newer viewers might have missed. There's so much that can be squeezed in between the main shows. Plus, it's a great palate cleanser! AnimationAficionado: Crossing my fingers for some of the classics that never really got their due. Would love to see shows from the deep cuts of Kids WB or even 4Kids' early days. "Vault" series sounds like a nostalgic goldmine. CartoonCurator: "Vault" series, huh? Here's hoping for some "TMNT" behind-the-scenes or early 2000s hidden gems like "Funky Cops". CW4Kids has a rich library; they should flaunt it! NostalgiaNate: I just really hope they dig deep and give airtime to stuff that's been off the radar for too long. Imagine getting to share snippets of shows our parents might have grown up with. How cool would that be? ToonConservator: This is actually a big deal for preserving animation history. These shorts give bite-sized insights into different eras of cartoon evolution. Plus, it's fun filler between shows! PixelPals: Not gonna lie, I'm surprised (but stoked) that CW4Kids is embracing its legacy content like this. After all the rebranding, I was worried they'd just barrel forward without looking back. VaultDiver: There are so many directions "Vault" could take--comedy, action snippets, even educational segments. Imagine mixing things up with "Schoolhouse Rock" or "The Magic School Bus" shorts. Admin_4KidsVault: Exciting times are ahead! We're digging through the archives to bring you a mix of nostalgia, laughs, and surprises with our new "Vault" series. Stay tuned for some classic shorts and hidden treasures that deserve a moment back in the spotlight. Your Saturday mornings just got a bit more retro! Thread Closed by Admin_4KidsVault

USER: Thread Title: Squish Cartoon Coming to Kids WB! Mid-Season Madness GreenJelly223: Hey Squish fans! Did you guys hear the news? There's a Squish cartoon in the works and it's hitting Kids WB's mid-season lineup! Can't wait to see our favorite amoeba make the jump from page to screen! MicrobeMania: No way, this is awesome! Squish has been one of my favorite graphic novel series for my kids. They're going to freak out! Have they announced who's behind the animation or any voice actors yet? AmoebaAmy: OMG, this made my day! I stumbled onto the news on Twitter but wasn't sure if it was real. I just hope they keep the charm of the comics. The sense of humor in Squish is just right for a cartoon! ScienceRules45: @MicrobeMania I read that the team behind some of the recent popular cartoons is on board for this. As for voice actors, nothing's announced yet. I'm crossing my fingers they get some quality talent. Hoping for some great chemistry between Squish, Pod, and Peggy. TheComicNerd21: True, voice acting can make or break a cartoon adaptation. I'm a bit skeptical, tbh. Sometimes these transitions lose the spirit of the original material. But I'll reserve judgment until we get a trailer or something. ArtsyOwl: Has anyone heard about the art style yet? The simplistic yet expressive style of the books is super charming. Kids WB tends to go for flashier animation, though I hope they keep it close to the spirit of the Squish comics. HappyMom200: I just hope they tackle the educational aspects well. My kids learned so much about microorganisms from these books while laughing their heads off. It'll be great for them to watch Squish's adventures! BioGeek: Yes! Education through entertainment is the best. I mean, who knew an amoeba could make science this fun? And considering we've all become amateur virologists lately (thanks, 2020), the timing couldn't be better. GreenJelly223: For sure, @BioGeek. They have a chance here to really create something that's as informational as it is entertaining. I also love how the books touch on themes of friendship and acceptance. If they keep that intact, it's going to be a hit. MicrobeMania: Anybody have any insider scoop on when we might be getting a peek at the animation or the voice cast? I'm super eager to see anything at this point! Bacteriophage_: Rumors say a teaser might drop sometime in the spring. Keep your eyes peeled and your streaming devices ready! AmoebaAmy: Well, here's hoping Kids WB keeps the slime rolling! Can't wait to see our little squishy buddy in action. Let's keep this thread updated with any new info! Admin5: This thread has been locked due to its inactivity over 30 days. Please feel free to open a new one if you have more news or want to continue the discussion about the upcoming Squish cartoon. Write a follow up where the premiere is in mid March, Also, Apple and Onion is being replaced by the return of reruns of Xiaolin Showdown, also TTG, Gumball and Johnny Test are still the flagships, Also The Tom and Jerry Show is over, and will be replaced by Steven Universe reruns in May Thread Title: Squish Premiere Date and Schedule Changes on Kids WB! Bacteriophage_: Hey everyone, big news! The Squish cartoon is set to premiere in mid-March! Clear your calendars and get ready for some amoeba action! Who's excited? CartoonAficionado: Finally, some concrete dates! I've been keeping an eye out since our last thread went quiet. Mid-March is sooner than I expected. Also heard about some schedule shake-ups. Looks like Apple and Onion is getting shelved for the Xiaolin Showdown reruns. Not sure how I feel about that one. AmoebaAmy: Squish is starting soon?! That's awesome! I'm totally having a viewing party with my kids. But wow, Apple and Onion out for Xiaolin Showdown...nostalgia trip, anyone? I did love that show, but it's a bit of a genre leap from Apple and Onion. RestInToons: RIP The Tom and Jerry Show. Kinda saw that ending coming. And to be replaced by Steven Universe reruns in May? I need new cartoons, not just rewinds. But Steven Universe is still a gem, at least. MicrobeMania: No more Tom and Jerry? That's the end of an era. Though, to be fair, SU reruns are solid. It's not every day you get a show that tackles heavy themes with magical aliens. Still, can't help but hope we get some fresh blood in the lineup eventually. ScienceRules45: True, new content is key, but at least we have Squish! And with TTG, Gumball, and Johnny Test holding the fort as flagships, I think Kids WB has a pretty balanced mix. Squish might just be the breath of fresh air we need right now. GreenJelly223: So, mid-March for Squish, that's great! Does anyone know if that's going to affect TTG, Gumball, or Johnny Test air times? I know they're the heavy hitters, just hoping Squish gets a good slot that doesn't clash. TheComicNerd21: Haven't seen anything about time changes for the flagships. I reckon Squish will find its place without much issue. Kids WB tends to do well with scheduling around their mainstays. And let's face it--TTG is practically unmovable at this point. HappyMom200: My kids will be over the moon with the return of Xiaolin Showdown. I loved it as a kid, too. It's going to be a mix of new and old at our house with Squish and the reruns. I think Kids WB might just pull off this balance. Still, hoping those reruns are just placeholders for future original content. ArtsyOwl: I'm just happy Squish is making its debut! Sure, schedule changes are always a bit of a rollercoaster, but that's the nature of TV, right? Out with the old, in with the new... and sometimes back in with the old! Admin5: Friendly reminder to keep industry rumor discussions civil. Looking forward to seeing how Squish is received by the community here! Let's revisit this thread after the premiere to share our thoughts. And, as always, stay tuned for any further schedule updates from Kids WB.

GreenJelly223: Summer's heating up, folks, and so is Kids WB's lineup! We're looking at TTG, Gumball, Steven Universe, and Xiaolin Showdown reruns. Plus, Squish, Skatoony, Scooby Doo and Guess Who, Looney Tunes Cartoons, and Craig of the Creek are all part of the mix. How's everyone feeling about the current programming? CartoonAficionado: Honestly, it's a bit of a mixed bag, but I'm not complaining! New fans are getting a taste of some classic toons with Xiaolin Showdown, and Squish has been a pleasant surprise--really nailing it. Plus, Craig of the Creek is always solid. It's like a buffet of different cartoon flavors this summer. Bacteriophage_: And don't forget what's coming in the fall - new episodes of Ben 10, Looney Tunes Cartoons, Teen Titans Go, Craig of the Creek, and Johnny Test. September can't come soon enough! AmoebaAmy: Squish has been an absolute delight! My kids adore it, and it's turning into our little summer tradition to watch together. As much as I love TTG and Gumball, it's Squish that has us tuning in with the most excitement. TheComicNerd21: A heads-up for all the true toon fans out there: new episodes for some of these shows are usually a blast. I've got high hopes for the fall, especially for Craig of the Creek--they've been consistently knocking it out of the park. ScienceRules45: I'm just glad we have such variety. Keeps the channel interesting. Summer is always tricky with kids home all day, but this lineup has something for everybody. ArtsyOwl: Agreed on the variety. The blend of classic and contemporary shows has me responding like I'm five and thirteen all at once. By the way, the art in the latest season of Looney Tunes Cartoons has been stellar. Can't wait to see what they do next. MicrobeMania: I am surprised how well Skatoony holds up. It's not everyone's cup of tea, but the quizzing with cartoons is unique. And with Scooby Doo and Guess Who featured, it feels like we've got a bit of a detective theme going on. Or is it just me? RestInToons: September seems pretty far, but I got a feeling that new Teen Titans Go and Johnny Test episodes will make some serious waves. Ben 10, too, has been gearing up for something big, at least that's the vibe. HappyMom200: It's a stable lineup for sure. Steven Universe reruns are still a hit in my house. Plus, I appreciate the educational value in shows like Squish. Keeps the kids learning even out of school--parents' summer dream! Admin5: Great to see such positivity about the lineup! As always, discuss your favorite shows, but please remember no spoilers for unaired episodes. Let's reconvene in this thread when the new episodes drop in September to share our thoughts and reviews! Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up where Robotboy is added to the schedule the next year in May 2022 when Summer begins, B10, LTC and SU are leaving, Robotboy, Skatoony and Chop Socky Chooks are taking their place, Also in the fall, we have a few new shows, Ultimate Spider-Man, Batman: The Brave and the bold and Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated, Also a new acquired comedy cartoon about 2 blobs Thread Title: Kids WB Schedule Shakeup - Hello Robotboy, So Long Ben 10 & Others! GreenJelly223: Hold onto your remotes, toon fans! Coming up next in May 2022, just as summer kicks off, Kids WB is adding Robotboy to the lineup. It's a nostalgia hit for sure but sad to see some good ones like Ben 10, Looney Tunes Cartoons, and Steven Universe leave us. Thoughts? TheComicNerd21: Man, Robotboy brings me back. Haven't seen that little guy in AGES. Sad to see Ben 10 go; it was always a solid watch. But, this is the life of a cartoon fan, right? Out with the old, in with the... older? Bacteriophage_: Robotboy's return is quite a surprise. It had that classic boy-and-his-robot vibe. Also, Skatoony and Chop Socky Chooks? That's quite the throwback. For those who don't remember, Chop Socky Chooks was this wild mix of kung fu and chickens--only in cartoons, folks! CartoonAficionado: Don't forget about the fall bonanza! Kids WB is loading up with some heavy hitters--Ultimate Spider-Man, Batman: The Brave and the Bold, and Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated. Plus, that new comedy about two blobs? Can't find much on it, but new content is always exciting! AmoebaAmy: Wait, so we're swapping out some superhero action with... different superhero action, and we're keeping the mystery with Scooby-Doo. And do I smell a strong comedy theme building up with the two blob cartoon? RestInToons: Totally digging the superhero update with Ultimate Spider-Man and Batman: The Brave and the Bold. They bring that comic book essence to the screen. And another comedy about blobs? Guess this one's the era of the blob, huh? ArtsyOwl: As much as I'll miss Steven Universe for its depth and progressivism, I guess I'm ready for something light-hearted. Robotboy and the blob comedy might just be the palate cleanser we need. Here's hoping they deliver some good laughs! MicrobeMania: Definitely a bummer about Ben 10 and SU. Those shows had such depth in storytelling and character development. But Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated is not to be slept on. That iteration has some of the best arcs for our mystery-solving gang! ScienceRules45: Batman: The Brave and the Bold was a gem! It didn't take itself too seriously and had just the right amount of camp. And with Ultimate Spider-Man, looks like we'll still be getting our fix of animated superhero action. HappyMom200: Love the move to Batman and Spider-Man. My kid has been on a real superhero kick, and Scooby-Doo never gets old. At least, not in my household. The blob comedy sounds intriguing--Kids WB isn't afraid to experiment, that's for sure! Admin5: With these cartoon cycles, it's always sad to see some shows go but equally exciting to welcome new titles and welcome back some classics like Robotboy. Remember, fall is just around the corner, so let's keep the conversation going when those new shows hit the screen. Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up where the blob cartoon is revealed to (be one I made up, hopefully I make it as a YouTube series) be named "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" Gloopy is a normal slime blob wheras Glitter lives up to her name as a sparkling one, Also, a mid season show Code Lyoko is premiering just as COTC knocks off for Summer, Also promos for CSC are already airing Thread Title: Revealed: "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" Joins Kids WB + Code Lyoko Mid-Season Premiere! CartoonAficionado: Alright, the mystery's solved! The new blob comedy coming to Kids WB is "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter". Gloopy is your average slime blob, and Glitter is, well, super sparkly! Could be a hit if it's done well. Fingers crossed it's as fun as the name suggests. GreenJelly223: "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter," huh? That's quite the name! I'm all for original content--bringing in some fresh 'slime' to the game. Kudos to the creator, especially if they started on YouTube. That's one giant leap for slime-kind. TheComicNerd21: Between Gloopy and Glitter, I'm expecting some madcap hijinks and, hopefully, some good chemistry. Pun totally intended! It's neat seeing creators move from YouTube to big networks. What a time to be alive! Bacteriophage_: Just saw the promo for Chop Socky Chooks! Honestly, I'd forgotten about that show, but the nostalgia hit me hard. Kids WB really knows how to draw in the old school fans alongside the new ones. AmoebaAmy: Excited to see what "Gloopy and Glitter" brings to the table! It's always refreshing to see new characters and stories. Also, did anyone catch that Code Lyoko is coming back as a mid-season show? That's unexpected! I remember watching that show as a kid--the blend of 2D and 3D animation was so cool. RestInToons: Code Lyoko? No way! That show was my virtual escape. With Craig of the Creek taking a summer break, Code Lyoko has some big shoes to fill. I'm cautiously optimistic. Also, kudos to the person behind "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter". This is indie creators' dream! ArtsyOwl: Craig of the Creek is my comfort show, so knowing it's taking a break has me in my feels. But Code Lyoko might just be the perfect summer binge to replace it. That show was ahead of its time with its virtual world storyline. MicrobeMania: With Chop Socky Chooks, Code Lyoko, and now "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter," I'm sensing a theme of whimsy and adventure. Perfect for a carefree summer! It's gonna be a wild ride on Kids WB. ScienceRules45: Indeed, summer is shaping up to be full of adventure and laughs! I'm curious to see the comedic dynamics between Gloopy and Glitter and how they'll fit into the current lineup. Code Lyoko is an excellent addition for anyone who's into that sci-fi, virtual reality vibe. HappyMom200: Just peeped the promo for Gloopy and Glitter with the kids. They're already quoting lines and chuckling. Also, major props to Kids WB for the diversity in its programming--you've got old hits, modern takes, and now a homegrown web series making it to the big leagues. Admin5: The summer is looking quite adventurous with all the fresh and returning programming we have on our hands! If "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" or Code Lyoko capture your hearts, be sure to come back and let everyone know. Enjoy the shows, everyone, and let's support those indie creators making waves! Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up where another mid-season show premieres, replacing Gumball, The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers Thread Title: Mid-Season Update: The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers Replace Gumball on Kids WB! TheComicNerd21: Big news for Kids WB watchers! "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" is premiering mid-season, taking the spot "The Amazing World of Gumball" left behind. I've got high hopes that these thrill-seeking siblings will bring the same level of zany to the lineup. Can they live up to the hilarity of Gumball, though? That's the big question. GreenJelly223: Gumball's out?! Say it isn't so! That show was a staple! But I remember The Adrenalini Brothers from awhile back...they were full of over-the-top stunts and accents. Hopefully, they can fill the quirky cartoon void that's gonna be left in Gumball's wake. CartoonAficionado: "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" are pure comedic gold with those daredevil antics. Gumball set a high bar for humor and heart, but if you want outrageous adventures and laughs, the Adrenalinis could be just the ticket. ArtsyOwl: I admit, I'll miss the random humor and clever writing of Gumball. It was one of those shows that had something for viewers of all ages. The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers have a different flavor, but I'm definitely willing to give them a shot. Bacteriophage_: Well folks, all good things must come to an end, but at least the high-paced energy of The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers might fill the void. They're not new to the cartoon scene, but let's hope their stunts are as amazing as ever. MicrobeMania: "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" is a throwback! Those guys pull off some wild stunts. Kids WB seems to be aiming for high octane to take Gumball's place. Keeping my fingers crossed that they keep delivering fresh content, even in the form of older gems getting the spotlight again. RestInToons: Guess it's goodbye to Gumball and hello Adrenalini. I remember the brothers having quite the international flair. Their eclectic style should make for a refreshing change of pace. Plus, with Squish and the others, Kids WB's variety is still on point. AmoebaAmy: My kids loved Gumball, so they're a bit gutted. But I think The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers' daredevil acts might just win them over. I'm always down for more shenanigans. Here's hoping they get as much character-driven hilarity as Gumball had. ScienceRules45: Gumball's creativity was unmatched, but The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers? That's a nostalgia trip! Will be interesting to see how a show that's been off the radar for a while resonates with the current audience. HappyMom200: My Gumball marathon nights are coming to an end it seems. The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers have some big shoes to fill, but I'm ready for the laughs. In Kids WB we trust, right? Admin5: Change is part of every TV network's lifecycle. "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" could be what kids WB needs to shake things up. Let's give these fearless brothers a chance and reconvene here to discuss the stunts, humor, and how the show fits into the new dynamic!

Welcome Back Craig & Gumball + Code Lyoko Stays! GreenJelly223: It's fall premiere season, everyone! And with the leaves changing comes new changes to Kids WB. Code Lyoko has secured its spot on the schedule, which I know some of you are thrilled about. The Amazing World of Gumball and Craig of the Creek are making a short-lived comeback, dipping out again in January. Can't get enough of those two, so I'm here for any time they're on. CartoonAficionado: Great to have Gumball and Craig back, even if it's just for a quick hello and goodbye. It's like that favorite seasonal dish you can't stop craving. And Code Lyoko sticking around? Love that for us--those virtual vibes aren't going anywhere! TheComicNerd21: Ah, the temporary returns of Gumball and Craig are bittersweet. Makes you wish they'd just stick around full-time. But, I gotta say, Code Lyoko keeping its slot is A-okay with me. That's one show I've been seriously getting back into. ArtsyOwl: The quality storytelling in Craig of the Creek will be sorely missed once January rolls around. And Gumball--it just has that rewatchability factor like no other. Soak it up while you can, folks! MicrobeMania: Just dropping in to say that Skatoony is going to be back next summer, and I'm here for it! It's kind of become the unofficial summer tradition since 2018, hasn't it? Always great to see a show that knows how to fill its seasonal shoes. Bacteriophage_: Yeah, Skatoony's like that cool summer camp you get excited about all year. But let's not overlook the fall newcomers too--I'm already setting reminders for Ultimate Spider-Man and Batman: The Brave and the Bold. The superhero binge is real! RestInToons: Mixed feelings about the short-term return of Gumball and Craig of the Creek. At least we know Kids WB is good at giving us something to look forward to. As for Code Lyoko, it's been interesting to see a show from yesteryear find its groove with the audience today. AmoebaAmy: The limited time with Gumball and Craig is better than no time! Let's enjoy the laughs and adventures while they last. And happy to have confirmed scoops like the one about Skatoony return--it's this kind of knowledge that keeps the fandom ticking. ScienceRules45: I've gotten used to the shift and shuffle of Kids WB's schedule. You learn to appreciate what you've got when you've got it. That said, I'm diving headfirst into the nostalgia and newness of this fall's lineup. It's going to be an entertaining season! HappyMom200: I'm grateful for any sprinkles of Craig of the Creek episodes we get! It's such a gem. And does anyone else get way too competitive watching Skatoony, or is that just me? Super stoked about its return next year! Admin5: Some very astute observations and a tangible excitement for the new and returning shows this fall! Let's enjoy this season's offerings, and, as always, keep the conversations engaging as we head into the new year with all its sure-to-be-surprising programming and inevitable farewells.

GreenJelly223: Hey toon enthusiasts! As we hit the sunny stride of 2023, Kids WB is switching up the schedule. We're saying bye to Batman, Scooby, and Spidey. But don't despair--Ozzy & Drix, World of Quest, and the ever-reliable Skatoony are here for those summer vibes. Also, "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" are still doing the rerun rounds. Keeping it fresh and funky! CartoonAficionado: Honestly, it's cool to see Ozzy & Drix making a comeback. That show was always under the radar but it delivered some solid laughs plus a bit of body-function education. Let's see how it holds up today! TheComicNerd21: No more Batman and Spidey is a bummer, but you know what? Bring on the Ozzy & Drix and World of Quest! I remember World of Quest being pretty out there with its humor, a good mix of action and oddball characters--definitely fitting for the wacky tone of summer. MicrobeMania: Ozzy & Drix, that's a throwback! I had a feeling it could make a resurgence. Educational and entertaining--that's a tough balance to strike, but that show had it. Also, cheers to year 5 of summer Skatoony--it's tradition at this point! ArtsyOwl: Hey, "Gloopy and Glitter" are still in the reruns, too! Shimmering on--quite literally, thanks to Glitter. It's a quirky and cute show, glad it's still around for the little ones to enjoy. Bacteriophage_: Seeing World of Quest drop into the lineup makes me hopeful that Kids WB is dedicated to keeping variety alive. Adventure, humor, outright weirdness--it's got it all. And combined with the educational fun from Ozzy & Drix, plus the game show laughs from Skatoony? Count me in for the summer! RestInToons: Sayonara superheroes! This season's lineup shows that kids' programming isn't just about capes and villains. It's about variety, surprise, and a touch of nostalgia. Let's get microscopic with Ozzy & Drix and go on a wild ride with Quest and Nestor! AmoebaAmy: Always a tad sad to see the Scooby gang go, but switching up genres keeps things interesting. Ozzy & Drix is kind of like "The Magic School Bus" for the older crowd, and I'm here for it! Plus, Skatoony is something my kids look forward to every year--glad it's not going anywhere! ScienceRules45: I've got to say, I appreciate how Kids WB keeps mixing in educational content amidst all the comedy and action. Ozzy & Drix is a blast from the past that I'm excited to revisit. It's just what we need in a world that could use a refresher on health and the human body! HappyMom200: World of Quest is an underrated treasure, and I'm thrilled it's coming back into the spotlight. It's like that fun summer book series but animated. And Skatoony is practically synonymous with summer now; glad to know some things stay solid. Admin5: The summer outlook is looking diverse and delightful! With shows that cater to every kind of young fan, there's no shortage of entertainment. Let's keep track of these changes and see how they fare in the warm months ahead. Enjoy your summer watching, and stay tuned for updates on what's next!

January 27 2024 Should have seen this coming the day TAWOG and COTC left for good, but Kids WB died on December 30, We now have the CW4Kids, owned by 4Kids Entertainment, and the first schedule change has happened, Squish and The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers have been replaced with Pokemon: Indigo League and Sonic X respectively, The block still has the Kids WB aesthetic, but I expect that to be gone by Easter, Also, another schedule change is coming in a few months, Teen Titans Go, Scooby Doo Mystery Inc and Batman the Brave and the Bold are being replaced with GoGoRiki (Smeshariki), Ultimate Muscle and Kirby: Right Back At Ya in 2 weeks, The remaining KWB shows as of now are Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, Code Lyoko, Ultimate Spider Man (and in 2 weeks, Gloopy and Glitter). The way they went about this was interesting, In December they started airing promos saying that from January 7 the network would be changing it's name, it didn't tell us that 4Kids are now in charge or that there would be new shows, the promo just showed the usual KWB shows like Squish, TAAB, TTG, XS, etc. Also today the promo for the next schedule change (dubbed a Super Duper Late Winter Lineup) has a new slogan "You're signed on to the CW4Kids" Slow and painful rebrand? , If you're not gonna change the bumpers untill Easter then why reveal your flashy new slogan now. Also the website (thecw4kids.com) STILL says this at the footer "(c) 2024 Warner Bros Discovery, Paramount Global, Nexstar Media Group" Hopefully it is updated to reflect 4Kids's involvement soon. Write a follow up forum convo where they talk more about the slow transition, and that GoGoRiki is cute, and that it could be primed to take over most of the current comedy cartoons Thread Title: CW4Kids: A Slow Transition & The Future of Cartoons on the Block? ToonMasterJay: So, has anyone else noticed how the CW4Kids transition is kinda like watching paint dry? The bumpers feel like Kids WB is haunting us. And they're dropping their new slogan already, but the website footer is still all about the old guard... Mixed signals much? DigitalToonFan: Yeah, the transition is definitely dragging its feet. I mean, if you're going to bring in 4Kids, then do it with a bang! Not this half-Zoom half-real-life meeting vibe. The new lineup switches could be cool though, but I'll miss Squish and The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers for sure. GoGoFan223: Honestly, I'm most excited about GoGoRiki (or Smeshariki for the purists). It's cute and has that potential to be big with the comedy crowd. Less about the action and more laughs--could be the perfect fit for the new direction they're aiming for. SonicXforever: Still processing the swap of Squish for Pokemon and TAAB for Sonic X... I mean, sure, classics! But Sonic X has been rerun how many times now? I guess they're banking on that nostalgia factor to reel us in while they're redecorating. PokeNostalgia101: Not going to lie, I'm excited to have Pokemon Indigo League back--it's like comfort food for my soul. But I hear you all, the change is weirdly slow. I get that it's a big shift from Kids WB to full-on 4Kids ownership, yet you'd think they'd want to make their mark quick. LyokoLover: Low-key glad Code Lyoko and Xiaolin Showdown are sticking around. They've got that unique appeal that isn't easy to replace. But curious how long till that changes with this new "Super Duper Late Winter Lineup." If they're ushering out TTG and Scooby, who's next? Animanga4Life: Ultimate Muscle and Kirby: Right Back At Ya coming to the block brings back fond Saturday morning memories! Although, I do get why some are skeptical; a lot of these shows have seen multiple reruns over the years. WebWader: I keep checking the website hoping it's been updated... No dice. The weird blend of old and new branding isn't helping anyone. At least update the footer to show 4Kids is steering the ship now. How hard can it be? ComicStripKid: The lineup change feels like a balance between targeting the parents who grew up with these shows and trying to appeal to the new gen of cartoon fans. GoGoRiki's charm and simplicity could be their ticket into the latter's hearts. I see a mascot in the making. ToonTalker91: Not thrilled about the slow pace here. It's like we're stuck in Kids WB limbo. I miss the days when a rebrand meant a fresh start, not this lingering goodbye. Curious how Gloopy and Glitter will fare with the rest of the changes looming... Will they be the last ones standing? Admin_4KidsRevamp: Please bear with us during this transition. We're working hard to bring a fresh and exciting lineup while honoring the legacy of what came before. Believe us, it'll be worth the wait! Stay tuned for more updates and enjoy the shows in the meantime. Thread Closed by Admin_4KidsRevamp Write a follow up in mid Feb where the Feb lineup is here, 5 4Kids shows (Pokemon, Sonic, Ultimate Muscle, Kirby and GoGoRiki) and 5 Kids WB shows (Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, Ultimate Spider Man, Gloopy and Glitter and Code Lyoko) Also, the website now has an account and points system, games, and has updated the footer to "(c) 2024 4Kids Entertainment", Website otherwise remains the same, and still has show pages for removed shows, but this will slowly change in the coming weeks Thread Title: CW4Kids Mid-Feb Lineup is Live! Balance of Old and New + Website Updates DigitalToonFan: The balance has been struck, folks! Five 4Kids classics--Pokemon, Sonic, Ultimate Muscle, Kirby, and GoGoRiki--and five Kids WB staples--Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, Ultimate Spider Man, Gloopy and Glitter, and Code Lyoko. It's a mix of eras in one block! ToonMasterJay: Checked out the CW4Kids website, they finally ditched the old footer. It's official, this ship is sailing under the 4Kids flag now. Nice to see they're stepping up their game with accounts and points, plus some games to boot! Animanga4Life: 4Kids moving in with accounts and points? Sounds like they're setting up a cool rewards system. And that might just get more kids invested in the website beyond streaming shows--a savvy move. GoGoFan223: GoGoRiki getting prime time with the big 4Kids dogs is great news. Its cute factor is off the charts. Could be the one to round out the new vibe CW4Kids is going for if they play their cards right. SonicXforever: Glad to see Sonic racing into the lineup. It's about time he got back into the limelight. Now to see how he fares among the newer offerings. Talk about a speed battle! PokeNostalgia101: Pokemon getting its rightful place has me all fired up! But it's kinda odd to still see show pages for the ousted shows on the website. Anyone else notice that? Hopefully, they'll clear that up soon. LyokoLover: The fact that Code Lyoko is sticking around amidst all the changes shows its resilience. Maybe 4Kids recognizes the gold they have with some of these Kids WB shows. The perfect yin to their yang. ComicStripKid: Well, can't say 4Kids isn't taking a balanced approach to this transition. Keeping half the lineup from Kids WB seems like a strategic way to ensure they don't lose the existing audience while they woo new viewers with nostalgia and updated features. WebWader: The website is getting there, slowly but surely. With account functionality and games, it looks like 4Kids is channeling some vintage interactivity magic. Here's to mission: engage the digitally-savvy generation! ToonTalker91: Seeing "(c) 2024 4Kids Entertainment" at the bottom of the website gives me mixed emotions--it's good to see they're updating stuff, but the nostalgia for Kids WB is real. Any bets on how long Gloopy and Glitter can hold out? Admin_4KidsRevamp: Thanks for sticking with us through the changes! We're excited about the new lineup and website features, and this is just the beginning. As for the site, we're rolling out updates over the next few weeks to ensure the best experience for all our visitors.

ToonMasterJay: Mid-April's gonna hit us with a serious 1-2 punch, folks! We're diving into a digital online video style aesthetic, making the "You're signed on to the CW4Kids" slogan legit. Plus, line-up's getting shaken up again--big time! DigitalToonFan: Heard the scoop that Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, and Ultimate Spider Man are waving goodbye. But we're keeping the virtual adventures of Code Lyoko and the quirky "Gloopy and Glitter"--two survivors of the cull. Animanga4Life: For the manga/anime fans, Pokemon Horizons: The Series is swooping in to replace the original Pokemon series! Exciting to see some new journeys and battles. Gotta love the continuous evolution of the Pokemon franchise on the CW4Kids. GoGoFan223: And what about that triple threat joining the fray? Chaotic, TMNT: Back to the Sewer, and Viva Pinata are about to spice things up! Feels like 4Kids is tossing in as many flavors as they can to see what sticks. SonicXforever: Greatest thing about CW4Kids right now? They're not afraid to mix it up. The digital look update has me hyped--it's like the block is leveling up. Hopefully, it adds a fresh vibe that resonates with the digital generation. PokeNostalgia101: Pokemon Horizons: The Series will def pull in the crowd looking for that cutting-edge anime action. Pokemon always knows how to keep things fresh. LyokoLover: Sad to see some old friends go, but Code Lyoko holding strong gives me hope. It's like our own little slice of stability in this whirlwind of changes. ComicStripKid: With the digital online style coming, CW4Kids is clearly gunning for a certain look and feel. Let's just cross our fingers it blends seamlessly with the cartoon essence we all tune in for. WebWader: Do you think bringing in Chaotic, TMNT, and Viva Pinata is going too far back into the vault? I'm all for nostalgia, but I hope they still invest in newer properties or original content. Balance is key. ToonTalker91: Big stuff with Pokemon Horizons; it's been creating buzz all over! As for Chaotic and TMNT: Back to the Sewer, that's unexpected! Not so sure what to expect from Viva Pinata, though... a wildcard entry, I'd say. Admin_4KidsRevamp: Expect the unexpected with CW4Kids! We're committed to delivering a modern digital vibe with the shows you love, new and old. Mid-April is going to be a milestone moment for the block, so prepare for an eye-catching refresh and lineup that packs a punch! Thread Closed by Admin_4KidsRevamp Write a follow up where 4Kids has some new anime planned out for Fall, Demon Slayer (rebranded as Vampire Hunters, will face heavy censorship), Smile Precure (renamed Glitter Force) and Yo-Kai Watch, Also, new episodes of GoGoRiki will premiere then Thread Title: 4Kids' Bold Anime Slate for Fall! New Shows + Fresh GoGoRiki Episodes! AnimeAdventurer101: Just in, 4Kids is eyeing a full anime assault this Fall! "Demon Slayer," which they're rebranding as "Vampire Hunters," is coming despite expected heavy censorship. We're also getting "Smile Precure" under the guise of "Glitter Force," and "Yo-Kai Watch" is making a splash. Plus, new "GoGoRiki" episodes on the horizon! ToonMasterJay: "Vampire Hunters" better not be sliced and diced to oblivion; "Demon Slayer" thrives on its action! But knowing 4Kids, our expectations for uncensored content should be--well, tempered. Hopefully, they keep enough of the original spirit intact. DigitalToonFan: "Glitter Force," huh? Reminds me of their old "Sailor Moon" days. "Smile Precure" is a great series, so I'm curious how much will be changed. As long as the essence is there, I suppose it'll capture the audience it's meant for. GoGoFan223: More GoGoRiki, sign me up! That show has been a surprisingly funny sleeper hit. It's got its own quirky charm that's been keeping kids and some of us adults entertained. MangaMogul: Alright, "Yo-Kai Watch" making the fall line-up is sweet. I'm cautiously optimistic about how it will be adapted. It has a lot of cultural references that I hope don't get lost in translation. SonicXforever: Honestly, I'm a mix of excited and nervous. The anime choices are solid, but we all remember how 4Kids framed other shows in the past. As long as they don't stray too far from the source material, it could work out. PokeNostalgia101: Whoever pitched "Demon Slayer" as "Vampire Hunters" deserves a... medal? It's certainly a creative spin. Fingers crossed that "Yo-Kai Watch" retains its charm and doesn't face the same fate. WebWader: It's a major throwback to 4Kids' old strategies--rebranding anime with Western sensibilities. Sometimes it worked, sometimes not so much. Here's hoping for the former this time around without losing too much authenticity. ComicStripKid: "Glitter Force," eh? We'll see. It's gotta be a tricky balance of keeping the action-friendly for younger audiences while not alienating the fans. And yo, new GoGoRiki episodes--those character designs just stick with you. LyokoLover: 4Kids and anime have a... complicated history. But I'm here for the anime, so I'll give "Vampire Hunters" and "Glitter Force" a chance. As for "Yo-Kai Watch," it could be a hit if handled with care. ToonTalker91: The anime announcements have potential, but the true test will be the execution. "Demon Slayer" is huge, so even a watered-down "Vampire Hunters" might hook viewers. Excited for new GoGoRiki eps and curious about "Glitter Force" as well. Admin_4KidsRevamp: We've heard your concerns and your excitement! Stick with us as we dive into Fall's diverse programming, which will definitely include fan-favorite anime action and some fantastic comedy. Changes can be good--especially with new GoGoRiki episodes on the way. Stay tuned!

USER: Thread Title: Squish Cartoon Coming to Kids WB! Mid-Season Madness GreenJelly223: Hey Squish fans! Did you guys hear the news? There's a Squish cartoon in the works and it's hitting Kids WB's mid-season lineup! Can't wait to see our favorite amoeba make the jump from page to screen! MicrobeMania: No way, this is awesome! Squish has been one of my favorite graphic novel series for my kids. They're going to freak out! Have they announced who's behind the animation or any voice actors yet? AmoebaAmy: OMG, this made my day! I stumbled onto the news on Twitter but wasn't sure if it was real. I just hope they keep the charm of the comics. The sense of humor in Squish is just right for a cartoon! ScienceRules45: @MicrobeMania I read that the team behind some of the recent popular cartoons is on board for this. As for voice actors, nothing's announced yet. I'm crossing my fingers they get some quality talent. Hoping for some great chemistry between Squish, Pod, and Peggy. TheComicNerd21: True, voice acting can make or break a cartoon adaptation. I'm a bit skeptical, tbh. Sometimes these transitions lose the spirit of the original material. But I'll reserve judgment until we get a trailer or something. ArtsyOwl: Has anyone heard about the art style yet? The simplistic yet expressive style of the books is super charming. Kids WB tends to go for flashier animation, though I hope they keep it close to the spirit of the Squish comics. HappyMom200: I just hope they tackle the educational aspects well. My kids learned so much about microorganisms from these books while laughing their heads off. It'll be great for them to watch Squish's adventures! BioGeek: Yes! Education through entertainment is the best. I mean, who knew an amoeba could make science this fun? And considering we've all become amateur virologists lately (thanks, 2020), the timing couldn't be better. GreenJelly223: For sure, @BioGeek. They have a chance here to really create something that's as informational as it is entertaining. I also love how the books touch on themes of friendship and acceptance. If they keep that intact, it's going to be a hit. MicrobeMania: Anybody have any insider scoop on when we might be getting a peek at the animation or the voice cast? I'm super eager to see anything at this point! Bacteriophage_: Rumors say a teaser might drop sometime in the spring. Keep your eyes peeled and your streaming devices ready! AmoebaAmy: Well, here's hoping Kids WB keeps the slime rolling! Can't wait to see our little squishy buddy in action. Let's keep this thread updated with any new info! Admin5: This thread has been locked due to its inactivity over 30 days. Please feel free to open a new one if you have more news or want to continue the discussion about the upcoming Squish cartoon. Write a follow up where the premiere is in mid March, Also, Apple and Onion is being replaced by the return of reruns of Xiaolin Showdown, also TTG, Gumball and Johnny Test are still the flagships, Also The Tom and Jerry Show is over, and will be replaced by Steven Universe reruns in May Thread Title: Squish Premiere Date and Schedule Changes on Kids WB! Bacteriophage_: Hey everyone, big news! The Squish cartoon is set to premiere in mid-March! Clear your calendars and get ready for some amoeba action! Who's excited? CartoonAficionado: Finally, some concrete dates! I've been keeping an eye out since our last thread went quiet. Mid-March is sooner than I expected. Also heard about some schedule shake-ups. Looks like Apple and Onion is getting shelved for the Xiaolin Showdown reruns. Not sure how I feel about that one. AmoebaAmy: Squish is starting soon?! That's awesome! I'm totally having a viewing party with my kids. But wow, Apple and Onion out for Xiaolin Showdown...nostalgia trip, anyone? I did love that show, but it's a bit of a genre leap from Apple and Onion. RestInToons: RIP The Tom and Jerry Show. Kinda saw that ending coming. And to be replaced by Steven Universe reruns in May? I need new cartoons, not just rewinds. But Steven Universe is still a gem, at least. MicrobeMania: No more Tom and Jerry? That's the end of an era. Though, to be fair, SU reruns are solid. It's not every day you get a show that tackles heavy themes with magical aliens. Still, can't help but hope we get some fresh blood in the lineup eventually. ScienceRules45: True, new content is key, but at least we have Squish! And with TTG, Gumball, and Johnny Test holding the fort as flagships, I think Kids WB has a pretty balanced mix. Squish might just be the breath of fresh air we need right now. GreenJelly223: So, mid-March for Squish, that's great! Does anyone know if that's going to affect TTG, Gumball, or Johnny Test air times? I know they're the heavy hitters, just hoping Squish gets a good slot that doesn't clash. TheComicNerd21: Haven't seen anything about time changes for the flagships. I reckon Squish will find its place without much issue. Kids WB tends to do well with scheduling around their mainstays. And let's face it--TTG is practically unmovable at this point. HappyMom200: My kids will be over the moon with the return of Xiaolin Showdown. I loved it as a kid, too. It's going to be a mix of new and old at our house with Squish and the reruns. I think Kids WB might just pull off this balance. Still, hoping those reruns are just placeholders for future original content. ArtsyOwl: I'm just happy Squish is making its debut! Sure, schedule changes are always a bit of a rollercoaster, but that's the nature of TV, right? Out with the old, in with the new... and sometimes back in with the old! Admin5: Friendly reminder to keep industry rumor discussions civil. Looking forward to seeing how Squish is received by the community here! Let's revisit this thread after the premiere to share our thoughts. And, as always, stay tuned for any further schedule updates from Kids WB. Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up during the summer, The summer lineup has TTG, Gumball, Steven Universe, Xiaolin Showdown, Johnny Test, Squish, Skatoony, Scooby Doo and Guess Who, Looney Tunes Cartoons and Craig of the Creek, Also, new episodes of Ben 10, Looney Tunes Cartoons, Teen Titans Go, Craig of the Creek and Johnny Test return in September Thread Title: Kids WB Summer Lineup + Fall New Episodes Info! GreenJelly223: Summer's heating up, folks, and so is Kids WB's lineup! We're looking at TTG, Gumball, Steven Universe, and Xiaolin Showdown reruns. Plus, Squish, Skatoony, Scooby Doo and Guess Who, Looney Tunes Cartoons, and Craig of the Creek are all part of the mix. How's everyone feeling about the current programming? CartoonAficionado: Honestly, it's a bit of a mixed bag, but I'm not complaining! New fans are getting a taste of some classic toons with Xiaolin Showdown, and Squish has been a pleasant surprise--really nailing it. Plus, Craig of the Creek is always solid. It's like a buffet of different cartoon flavors this summer. Bacteriophage_: And don't forget what's coming in the fall - new episodes of Ben 10, Looney Tunes Cartoons, Teen Titans Go, Craig of the Creek, and Johnny Test. September can't come soon enough! AmoebaAmy: Squish has been an absolute delight! My kids adore it, and it's turning into our little summer tradition to watch together. As much as I love TTG and Gumball, it's Squish that has us tuning in with the most excitement. TheComicNerd21: A heads-up for all the true toon fans out there: new episodes for some of these shows are usually a blast. I've got high hopes for the fall, especially for Craig of the Creek--they've been consistently knocking it out of the park. ScienceRules45: I'm just glad we have such variety. Keeps the channel interesting. Summer is always tricky with kids home all day, but this lineup has something for everybody. ArtsyOwl: Agreed on the variety. The blend of classic and contemporary shows has me responding like I'm five and thirteen all at once. By the way, the art in the latest season of Looney Tunes Cartoons has been stellar. Can't wait to see what they do next. MicrobeMania: I am surprised how well Skatoony holds up. It's not everyone's cup of tea, but the quizzing with cartoons is unique. And with Scooby Doo and Guess Who featured, it feels like we've got a bit of a detective theme going on. Or is it just me? RestInToons: September seems pretty far, but I got a feeling that new Teen Titans Go and Johnny Test episodes will make some serious waves. Ben 10, too, has been gearing up for something big, at least that's the vibe. HappyMom200: It's a stable lineup for sure. Steven Universe reruns are still a hit in my house. Plus, I appreciate the educational value in shows like Squish. Keeps the kids learning even out of school--parents' summer dream! Admin5: Great to see such positivity about the lineup! As always, discuss your favorite shows, but please remember no spoilers for unaired episodes. Let's reconvene in this thread when the new episodes drop in September to share our thoughts and reviews! Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up where Robotboy is added to the schedule the next year in May 2022 when Summer begins, B10, LTC and SU are leaving, Robotboy, Skatoony and Chop Socky Chooks are taking their place, Also in the fall, we have a few new shows, Ultimate Spider-Man, Batman: The Brave and the bold and Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated, Also a new acquired comedy cartoon about 2 blobs Thread Title: Kids WB Schedule Shakeup - Hello Robotboy, So Long Ben 10 & Others! GreenJelly223: Hold onto your remotes, toon fans! Coming up next in May 2022, just as summer kicks off, Kids WB is adding Robotboy to the lineup. It's a nostalgia hit for sure but sad to see some good ones like Ben 10, Looney Tunes Cartoons, and Steven Universe leave us. Thoughts? TheComicNerd21: Man, Robotboy brings me back. Haven't seen that little guy in AGES. Sad to see Ben 10 go; it was always a solid watch. But, this is the life of a cartoon fan, right? Out with the old, in with the... older? Bacteriophage_: Robotboy's return is quite a surprise. It had that classic boy-and-his-robot vibe. Also, Skatoony and Chop Socky Chooks? That's quite the throwback. For those who don't remember, Chop Socky Chooks was this wild mix of kung fu and chickens--only in cartoons, folks! CartoonAficionado: Don't forget about the fall bonanza! Kids WB is loading up with some heavy hitters--Ultimate Spider-Man, Batman: The Brave and the Bold, and Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated. Plus, that new comedy about two blobs? Can't find much on it, but new content is always exciting! AmoebaAmy: Wait, so we're swapping out some superhero action with... different superhero action, and we're keeping the mystery with Scooby-Doo. And do I smell a strong comedy theme building up with the two blob cartoon? RestInToons: Totally digging the superhero update with Ultimate Spider-Man and Batman: The Brave and the Bold. They bring that comic book essence to the screen. And another comedy about blobs? Guess this one's the era of the blob, huh? ArtsyOwl: As much as I'll miss Steven Universe for its depth and progressivism, I guess I'm ready for something light-hearted. Robotboy and the blob comedy might just be the palate cleanser we need. Here's hoping they deliver some good laughs! MicrobeMania: Definitely a bummer about Ben 10 and SU. Those shows had such depth in storytelling and character development. But Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated is not to be slept on. That iteration has some of the best arcs for our mystery-solving gang! ScienceRules45: Batman: The Brave and the Bold was a gem! It didn't take itself too seriously and had just the right amount of camp. And with Ultimate Spider-Man, looks like we'll still be getting our fix of animated superhero action. HappyMom200: Love the move to Batman and Spider-Man. My kid has been on a real superhero kick, and Scooby-Doo never gets old. At least, not in my household. The blob comedy sounds intriguing--Kids WB isn't afraid to experiment, that's for sure! Admin5: With these cartoon cycles, it's always sad to see some shows go but equally exciting to welcome new titles and welcome back some classics like Robotboy. Remember, fall is just around the corner, so let's keep the conversation going when those new shows hit the screen. Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up where the blob cartoon is revealed to (be one I made up, hopefully I make it as a YouTube series) be named "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" Gloopy is a normal slime blob wheras Glitter lives up to her name as a sparkling one, Also, a mid season show Code Lyoko is premiering just as COTC knocks off for Summer, Also promos for CSC are already airing Thread Title: Revealed: "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" Joins Kids WB + Code Lyoko Mid-Season Premiere! CartoonAficionado: Alright, the mystery's solved! The new blob comedy coming to Kids WB is "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter". Gloopy is your average slime blob, and Glitter is, well, super sparkly! Could be a hit if it's done well. Fingers crossed it's as fun as the name suggests. GreenJelly223: "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter," huh? That's quite the name! I'm all for original content--bringing in some fresh 'slime' to the game. Kudos to the creator, especially if they started on YouTube. That's one giant leap for slime-kind. TheComicNerd21: Between Gloopy and Glitter, I'm expecting some madcap hijinks and, hopefully, some good chemistry. Pun totally intended! It's neat seeing creators move from YouTube to big networks. What a time to be alive! Bacteriophage_: Just saw the promo for Chop Socky Chooks! Honestly, I'd forgotten about that show, but the nostalgia hit me hard. Kids WB really knows how to draw in the old school fans alongside the new ones. AmoebaAmy: Excited to see what "Gloopy and Glitter" brings to the table! It's always refreshing to see new characters and stories. Also, did anyone catch that Code Lyoko is coming back as a mid-season show? That's unexpected! I remember watching that show as a kid--the blend of 2D and 3D animation was so cool. RestInToons: Code Lyoko? No way! That show was my virtual escape. With Craig of the Creek taking a summer break, Code Lyoko has some big shoes to fill. I'm cautiously optimistic. Also, kudos to the person behind "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter". This is indie creators' dream! ArtsyOwl: Craig of the Creek is my comfort show, so knowing it's taking a break has me in my feels. But Code Lyoko might just be the perfect summer binge to replace it. That show was ahead of its time with its virtual world storyline. MicrobeMania: With Chop Socky Chooks, Code Lyoko, and now "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter," I'm sensing a theme of whimsy and adventure. Perfect for a carefree summer! It's gonna be a wild ride on Kids WB. ScienceRules45: Indeed, summer is shaping up to be full of adventure and laughs! I'm curious to see the comedic dynamics between Gloopy and Glitter and how they'll fit into the current lineup. Code Lyoko is an excellent addition for anyone who's into that sci-fi, virtual reality vibe. HappyMom200: Just peeped the promo for Gloopy and Glitter with the kids. They're already quoting lines and chuckling. Also, major props to Kids WB for the diversity in its programming--you've got old hits, modern takes, and now a homegrown web series making it to the big leagues. Admin5: The summer is looking quite adventurous with all the fresh and returning programming we have on our hands! If "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" or Code Lyoko capture your hearts, be sure to come back and let everyone know. Enjoy the shows, everyone, and let's support those indie creators making waves! Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up where another mid-season show premieres, replacing Gumball, The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers Thread Title: Mid-Season Update: The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers Replace Gumball on Kids WB! TheComicNerd21: Big news for Kids WB watchers! "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" is premiering mid-season, taking the spot "The Amazing World of Gumball" left behind. I've got high hopes that these thrill-seeking siblings will bring the same level of zany to the lineup. Can they live up to the hilarity of Gumball, though? That's the big question. GreenJelly223: Gumball's out?! Say it isn't so! That show was a staple! But I remember The Adrenalini Brothers from awhile back...they were full of over-the-top stunts and accents. Hopefully, they can fill the quirky cartoon void that's gonna be left in Gumball's wake. CartoonAficionado: "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" are pure comedic gold with those daredevil antics. Gumball set a high bar for humor and heart, but if you want outrageous adventures and laughs, the Adrenalinis could be just the ticket. ArtsyOwl: I admit, I'll miss the random humor and clever writing of Gumball. It was one of those shows that had something for viewers of all ages. The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers have a different flavor, but I'm definitely willing to give them a shot. Bacteriophage_: Well folks, all good things must come to an end, but at least the high-paced energy of The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers might fill the void. They're not new to the cartoon scene, but let's hope their stunts are as amazing as ever. MicrobeMania: "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" is a throwback! Those guys pull off some wild stunts. Kids WB seems to be aiming for high octane to take Gumball's place. Keeping my fingers crossed that they keep delivering fresh content, even in the form of older gems getting the spotlight again. RestInToons: Guess it's goodbye to Gumball and hello Adrenalini. I remember the brothers having quite the international flair. Their eclectic style should make for a refreshing change of pace. Plus, with Squish and the others, Kids WB's variety is still on point. AmoebaAmy: My kids loved Gumball, so they're a bit gutted. But I think The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers' daredevil acts might just win them over. I'm always down for more shenanigans. Here's hoping they get as much character-driven hilarity as Gumball had. ScienceRules45: Gumball's creativity was unmatched, but The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers? That's a nostalgia trip! Will be interesting to see how a show that's been off the radar for a while resonates with the current audience. HappyMom200: My Gumball marathon nights are coming to an end it seems. The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers have some big shoes to fill, but I'm ready for the laughs. In Kids WB we trust, right? Admin5: Change is part of every TV network's lifecycle. "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" could be what kids WB needs to shake things up. Let's give these fearless brothers a chance and reconvene here to discuss the stunts, humor, and how the show fits into the new dynamic! Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up in fall when the new shows premiere, Lyoko is sticking around, Gumball and Craig are back, but won't be for long, leaving again in January, Also, a user says Skatoony will definitely be back next year, as it has been a summer replacement show since 2018 Thread Title: Fall Premieres are Here! Welcome Back Craig & Gumball + Code Lyoko Stays! GreenJelly223: It's fall premiere season, everyone! And with the leaves changing comes new changes to Kids WB. Code Lyoko has secured its spot on the schedule, which I know some of you are thrilled about. The Amazing World of Gumball and Craig of the Creek are making a short-lived comeback, dipping out again in January. Can't get enough of those two, so I'm here for any time they're on. CartoonAficionado: Great to have Gumball and Craig back, even if it's just for a quick hello and goodbye. It's like that favorite seasonal dish you can't stop craving. And Code Lyoko sticking around? Love that for us--those virtual vibes aren't going anywhere! TheComicNerd21: Ah, the temporary returns of Gumball and Craig are bittersweet. Makes you wish they'd just stick around full-time. But, I gotta say, Code Lyoko keeping its slot is A-okay with me. That's one show I've been seriously getting back into. ArtsyOwl: The quality storytelling in Craig of the Creek will be sorely missed once January rolls around. And Gumball--it just has that rewatchability factor like no other. Soak it up while you can, folks! MicrobeMania: Just dropping in to say that Skatoony is going to be back next summer, and I'm here for it! It's kind of become the unofficial summer tradition since 2018, hasn't it? Always great to see a show that knows how to fill its seasonal shoes. Bacteriophage_: Yeah, Skatoony's like that cool summer camp you get excited about all year. But let's not overlook the fall newcomers too--I'm already setting reminders for Ultimate Spider-Man and Batman: The Brave and the Bold. The superhero binge is real! RestInToons: Mixed feelings about the short-term return of Gumball and Craig of the Creek. At least we know Kids WB is good at giving us something to look forward to. As for Code Lyoko, it's been interesting to see a show from yesteryear find its groove with the audience today. AmoebaAmy: The limited time with Gumball and Craig is better than no time! Let's enjoy the laughs and adventures while they last. And happy to have confirmed scoops like the one about Skatoony return--it's this kind of knowledge that keeps the fandom ticking. ScienceRules45: I've gotten used to the shift and shuffle of Kids WB's schedule. You learn to appreciate what you've got when you've got it. That said, I'm diving headfirst into the nostalgia and newness of this fall's lineup. It's going to be an entertaining season! HappyMom200: I'm grateful for any sprinkles of Craig of the Creek episodes we get! It's such a gem. And does anyone else get way too competitive watching Skatoony, or is that just me? Super stoked about its return next year! Admin5: Some very astute observations and a tangible excitement for the new and returning shows this fall! Let's enjoy this season's offerings, and, as always, keep the conversations engaging as we head into the new year with all its sure-to-be-surprising programming and inevitable farewells. Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up in 2023 where G&G are still rerunning, but Batman, Scooby and Spidey are off, replaced with Ozzy and Drix, World of Quest and Skatoony for summer Thread Title: 2023 Kids WB Update: Ozzy & Drix, World of Quest & Skatoony Take Over Summer! GreenJelly223: Hey toon enthusiasts! As we hit the sunny stride of 2023, Kids WB is switching up the schedule. We're saying bye to Batman, Scooby, and Spidey. But don't despair--Ozzy & Drix, World of Quest, and the ever-reliable Skatoony are here for those summer vibes. Also, "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" are still doing the rerun rounds. Keeping it fresh and funky! CartoonAficionado: Honestly, it's cool to see Ozzy & Drix making a comeback. That show was always under the radar but it delivered some solid laughs plus a bit of body-function education. Let's see how it holds up today! TheComicNerd21: No more Batman and Spidey is a bummer, but you know what? Bring on the Ozzy & Drix and World of Quest! I remember World of Quest being pretty out there with its humor, a good mix of action and oddball characters--definitely fitting for the wacky tone of summer. MicrobeMania: Ozzy & Drix, that's a throwback! I had a feeling it could make a resurgence. Educational and entertaining--that's a tough balance to strike, but that show had it. Also, cheers to year 5 of summer Skatoony--it's tradition at this point! ArtsyOwl: Hey, "Gloopy and Glitter" are still in the reruns, too! Shimmering on--quite literally, thanks to Glitter. It's a quirky and cute show, glad it's still around for the little ones to enjoy. Bacteriophage_: Seeing World of Quest drop into the lineup makes me hopeful that Kids WB is dedicated to keeping variety alive. Adventure, humor, outright weirdness--it's got it all. And combined with the educational fun from Ozzy & Drix, plus the game show laughs from Skatoony? Count me in for the summer! RestInToons: Sayonara superheroes! This season's lineup shows that kids' programming isn't just about capes and villains. It's about variety, surprise, and a touch of nostalgia. Let's get microscopic with Ozzy & Drix and go on a wild ride with Quest and Nestor! AmoebaAmy: Always a tad sad to see the Scooby gang go, but switching up genres keeps things interesting. Ozzy & Drix is kind of like "The Magic School Bus" for the older crowd, and I'm here for it! Plus, Skatoony is something my kids look forward to every year--glad it's not going anywhere! ScienceRules45: I've got to say, I appreciate how Kids WB keeps mixing in educational content amidst all the comedy and action. Ozzy & Drix is a blast from the past that I'm excited to revisit. It's just what we need in a world that could use a refresher on health and the human body! HappyMom200: World of Quest is an underrated treasure, and I'm thrilled it's coming back into the spotlight. It's like that fun summer book series but animated. And Skatoony is practically synonymous with summer now; glad to know some things stay solid. Admin5: The summer outlook is looking diverse and delightful! With shows that cater to every kind of young fan, there's no shortage of entertainment. Let's keep track of these changes and see how they fare in the warm months ahead. Enjoy your summer watching, and stay tuned for updates on what's next!

January 27 2024 Should have seen this coming the day TAWOG and COTC left for good, but Kids WB died on December 30, We now have the CW4Kids, owned by 4Kids Entertainment, and the first schedule change has happened, Squish and The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers have been replaced with Pokemon: Indigo League and Sonic X respectively, The block still has the Kids WB aesthetic, but I expect that to be gone by Easter, Also, another schedule change is coming in a few months, Teen Titans Go, Scooby Doo Mystery Inc and Batman the Brave and the Bold are being replaced with GoGoRiki (Smeshariki), Ultimate Muscle and Kirby: Right Back At Ya in 2 weeks, The remaining KWB shows as of now are Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, Code Lyoko, Ultimate Spider Man (and in 2 weeks, Gloopy and Glitter). The way they went about this was interesting, In December they started airing promos saying that from January 7 the network would be changing it's name, it didn't tell us that 4Kids are now in charge or that there would be new shows, the promo just showed the usual KWB shows like Squish, TAAB, TTG, XS, etc. Also today the promo for the next schedule change (dubbed a Super Duper Late Winter Lineup) has a new slogan "You're signed on to the CW4Kids" Slow and painful rebrand? , If you're not gonna change the bumpers untill Easter then why reveal your flashy new slogan now. Also the website (thecw4kids.com) STILL says this at the footer "(c) 2024 Warner Bros Discovery, Paramount Global, Nexstar Media Group" Hopefully it is updated to reflect 4Kids's involvement soon. Write a follow up forum convo where they talk more about the slow transition, and that GoGoRiki is cute, and that it could be primed to take over most of the current comedy cartoons Thread Title: CW4Kids: A Slow Transition & The Future of Cartoons on the Block? ToonMasterJay: So, has anyone else noticed how the CW4Kids transition is kinda like watching paint dry? The bumpers feel like Kids WB is haunting us. And they're dropping their new slogan already, but the website footer is still all about the old guard... Mixed signals much? DigitalToonFan: Yeah, the transition is definitely dragging its feet. I mean, if you're going to bring in 4Kids, then do it with a bang! Not this half-Zoom half-real-life meeting vibe. The new lineup switches could be cool though, but I'll miss Squish and The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers for sure. GoGoFan223: Honestly, I'm most excited about GoGoRiki (or Smeshariki for the purists). It's cute and has that potential to be big with the comedy crowd. Less about the action and more laughs--could be the perfect fit for the new direction they're aiming for. SonicXforever: Still processing the swap of Squish for Pokemon and TAAB for Sonic X... I mean, sure, classics! But Sonic X has been rerun how many times now? I guess they're banking on that nostalgia factor to reel us in while they're redecorating. PokeNostalgia101: Not going to lie, I'm excited to have Pokemon Indigo League back--it's like comfort food for my soul. But I hear you all, the change is weirdly slow. I get that it's a big shift from Kids WB to full-on 4Kids ownership, yet you'd think they'd want to make their mark quick. LyokoLover: Low-key glad Code Lyoko and Xiaolin Showdown are sticking around. They've got that unique appeal that isn't easy to replace. But curious how long till that changes with this new "Super Duper Late Winter Lineup." If they're ushering out TTG and Scooby, who's next? Animanga4Life: Ultimate Muscle and Kirby: Right Back At Ya coming to the block brings back fond Saturday morning memories! Although, I do get why some are skeptical; a lot of these shows have seen multiple reruns over the years. WebWader: I keep checking the website hoping it's been updated... No dice. The weird blend of old and new branding isn't helping anyone. At least update the footer to show 4Kids is steering the ship now. How hard can it be? ComicStripKid: The lineup change feels like a balance between targeting the parents who grew up with these shows and trying to appeal to the new gen of cartoon fans. GoGoRiki's charm and simplicity could be their ticket into the latter's hearts. I see a mascot in the making. ToonTalker91: Not thrilled about the slow pace here. It's like we're stuck in Kids WB limbo. I miss the days when a rebrand meant a fresh start, not this lingering goodbye. Curious how Gloopy and Glitter will fare with the rest of the changes looming... Will they be the last ones standing? Admin_4KidsRevamp: Please bear with us during this transition. We're working hard to bring a fresh and exciting lineup while honoring the legacy of what came before. Believe us, it'll be worth the wait! Stay tuned for more updates and enjoy the shows in the meantime. Thread Closed by Admin_4KidsRevamp Write a follow up in mid Feb where the Feb lineup is here, 5 4Kids shows (Pokemon, Sonic, Ultimate Muscle, Kirby and GoGoRiki) and 5 Kids WB shows (Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, Ultimate Spider Man, Gloopy and Glitter and Code Lyoko) Also, the website now has an account and points system, games, and has updated the footer to "(c) 2024 4Kids Entertainment", Website otherwise remains the same, and still has show pages for removed shows, but this will slowly change in the coming weeks Thread Title: CW4Kids Mid-Feb Lineup is Live! Balance of Old and New + Website Updates DigitalToonFan: The balance has been struck, folks! Five 4Kids classics--Pokemon, Sonic, Ultimate Muscle, Kirby, and GoGoRiki--and five Kids WB staples--Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, Ultimate Spider Man, Gloopy and Glitter, and Code Lyoko. It's a mix of eras in one block! ToonMasterJay: Checked out the CW4Kids website, they finally ditched the old footer. It's official, this ship is sailing under the 4Kids flag now. Nice to see they're stepping up their game with accounts and points, plus some games to boot! Animanga4Life: 4Kids moving in with accounts and points? Sounds like they're setting up a cool rewards system. And that might just get more kids invested in the website beyond streaming shows--a savvy move. GoGoFan223: GoGoRiki getting prime time with the big 4Kids dogs is great news. Its cute factor is off the charts. Could be the one to round out the new vibe CW4Kids is going for if they play their cards right. SonicXforever: Glad to see Sonic racing into the lineup. It's about time he got back into the limelight. Now to see how he fares among the newer offerings. Talk about a speed battle! PokeNostalgia101: Pokemon getting its rightful place has me all fired up! But it's kinda odd to still see show pages for the ousted shows on the website. Anyone else notice that? Hopefully, they'll clear that up soon. LyokoLover: The fact that Code Lyoko is sticking around amidst all the changes shows its resilience. Maybe 4Kids recognizes the gold they have with some of these Kids WB shows. The perfect yin to their yang. ComicStripKid: Well, can't say 4Kids isn't taking a balanced approach to this transition. Keeping half the lineup from Kids WB seems like a strategic way to ensure they don't lose the existing audience while they woo new viewers with nostalgia and updated features. WebWader: The website is getting there, slowly but surely. With account functionality and games, it looks like 4Kids is channeling some vintage interactivity magic. Here's to mission: engage the digitally-savvy generation! ToonTalker91: Seeing "(c) 2024 4Kids Entertainment" at the bottom of the website gives me mixed emotions--it's good to see they're updating stuff, but the nostalgia for Kids WB is real. Any bets on how long Gloopy and Glitter can hold out? Admin_4KidsRevamp: Thanks for sticking with us through the changes! We're excited about the new lineup and website features, and this is just the beginning. As for the site, we're rolling out updates over the next few weeks to ensure the best experience for all our visitors.

Plus, line-up's getting shaken up again--big time! DigitalToonFan: Heard the scoop that Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, and Ultimate Spider Man are waving goodbye. But we're keeping the virtual adventures of Code Lyoko and the quirky "Gloopy and Glitter"--two survivors of the cull. Animanga4Life: For the manga/anime fans, Pokemon Horizons: The Series is swooping in to replace the original Pokemon series! Exciting to see some new journeys and battles. Gotta love the continuous evolution of the Pokemon franchise on the CW4Kids. GoGoFan223: And what about that triple threat joining the fray? Chaotic, TMNT: Back to the Sewer, and Viva Pinata are about to spice things up! Feels like 4Kids is tossing in as many flavors as they can to see what sticks. SonicXforever: Greatest thing about CW4Kids right now? They're not afraid to mix it up. The digital look update has me hyped--it's like the block is leveling up. Hopefully, it adds a fresh vibe that resonates with the digital generation. PokeNostalgia101: Pokemon Horizons: The Series will def pull in the crowd looking for that cutting-edge anime action. Pokemon always knows how to keep things fresh. LyokoLover: Sad to see some old friends go, but Code Lyoko holding strong gives me hope. It's like our own little slice of stability in this whirlwind of changes. ComicStripKid: With the digital online style coming, CW4Kids is clearly gunning for a certain look and feel. Let's just cross our fingers it blends seamlessly with the cartoon essence we all tune in for. WebWader: Do you think bringing in Chaotic, TMNT, and Viva Pinata is going too far back into the vault? I'm all for nostalgia, but I hope they still invest in newer properties or original content. Balance is key. ToonTalker91: Big stuff with Pokemon Horizons; it's been creating buzz all over! As for Chaotic and TMNT: Back to the Sewer, that's unexpected! Not so sure what to expect from Viva Pinata, though... a wildcard entry, I'd say. Admin_4KidsRevamp: Expect the unexpected with CW4Kids!

ToonMasterJay: "Vampire Hunters" better not be sliced and diced to oblivion; "Demon Slayer" thrives on its action! But knowing 4Kids, our expectations for uncensored content should be--well, tempered. Hopefully, they keep enough of the original spirit intact. DigitalToonFan: "Glitter Force," huh? Reminds me of their old "Sailor Moon" days. "Smile Precure" is a great series, so I'm curious how muchApril 12, a preview event will be changed. As long as the essence is there, I suppose it'll capture the audience it's meant for. GoGoFan223: More GoGoRiki, sign me up! That show has been a surprisingly funny sleeper hit. It's got its own quirky charm that's been keeping kids and some of us adults entertained. MangaMogul: Alright, "Yo-Kai Watch" making the fall line-up is sweet. I'm cautiously optimistic about how it will be adapted. It has a lot of cultural references that I hope don't get lost in translation. SonicXforever: Honestly, I'm a mix of excited and nervous.hosted on The anime choices are solid, but we all remember how 4Kids framed other shows in the past. As long as they don't stray too far from the source material, it could work out. PokeNostalgia101: Whoever pitched "Demon Slayer" as "Vampire Hunters" deserves a... medal? It's certainly a creative spin. Fingers crossed that "Yo-Kai Watch" retains its charm and doesn't face the same fate. WebWader: It's a major throwback to 4Kids' old strategies--rebranding anime with Western sensibilities. Sometimes it worked, sometimes not so much. Here's hoping for the former this time around without losing too much authenticity. ComicStripKid: "Glitter Force," eh? We'll see. It's gotta be a tricky balance of keeping the action-friendly for younger audiences while not alienating the fans. And yo, new GoGoRiki episodes--those character designs just stick with you. LyokoLover: 4Kids and anime have a... complicated history. But I'm here for the anime, so I'll give "Vampire Hunters" and "Glitter Force" a chance. As for "Yo-Kai Watch," it could be a hit if handled with care. ToonTalker91: The anime announcements have potential, but the true test will be the execution. "Demon Slayer" is huge, so even a watered-down "Vampire Hunters" might hook viewers. Excited for new GoGoRiki eps and curious about "Glitter Force" as well.

The final day of the comic book branding and our last hoorah with Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, and Ultimate Spider-Man. End of an era on CW4Kids. Who else is watching the marathons today? PixelPioneer: Seriously nostalgic right now. Grew up with these shows, and seeing them go is bittersweet. But I'm also kinda excited about what's coming. This digital era could be really cool. That preview event on April 12th is definitely on my calendar. Anyone else tuning in? ToonMasterJay: Definitely tuning in. Gotta pay respects to the shows that made my childhood awesome. As for the new look, I'm all for progress and innovation. Curious about how this digital online video style will change the vibe. Animanga4Life: Sad to see Ultimate Spider-Man swing out of our screens. However, Pokemon Horizons: The Series sounds promising. Is it just me, or does CW4Kids seem to be leaning heavily into anime vibes with these updates? ComicStripKid: Mixed feelings here. Xiaolin Showdown was my jam, but change is the only constant, right?

Curious how they'll balance the nostalgia factor with the appeal to newer audiences. LyokoLover: It's gonna be weird not having the comic book branding. That aesthetic was iconic. Still, Code Lyoko hanging in there gives me hope. And this preview event sounds like a great way to turn the page to a new chapter.

USER: Thread Title: Squish Cartoon Coming to Kids WB! Mid-Season Madness GreenJelly223: Hey Squish fans! Did you guys hear the news? There's a Squish cartoon in the works and it's hitting Kids WB's mid-season lineup! Can't wait to see our favorite amoeba make the jump from page to screen! MicrobeMania: No way, this is awesome! Squish has been one of my favorite graphic novel series for my kids. They're going to freak out! Have they announced who's behind the animation or any voice actors yet? AmoebaAmy: OMG, this made my day! I stumbled onto the news on Twitter but wasn't sure if it was real. I just hope they keep the charm of the comics. The sense of humor in Squish is just right for a cartoon! ScienceRules45: @MicrobeMania I read that the team behind some of the recent popular cartoons is on board for this. As for voice actors, nothing's announced yet. I'm crossing my fingers they get some quality talent. Hoping for some great chemistry between Squish, Pod, and Peggy. TheComicNerd21: True, voice acting can make or break a cartoon adaptation. I'm a bit skeptical, tbh. Sometimes these transitions lose the spirit of the original material. But I'll reserve judgment until we get a trailer or something. ArtsyOwl: Has anyone heard about the art style yet? The simplistic yet expressive style of the books is super charming. Kids WB tends to go for flashier animation, though I hope they keep it close to the spirit of the Squish comics. HappyMom200: I just hope they tackle the educational aspects well. My kids learned so much about microorganisms from these books while laughing their heads off. It'll be great for them to watch Squish's adventures! BioGeek: Yes! Education through entertainment is the best. I mean, who knew an amoeba could make science this fun? And considering we've all become amateur virologists lately (thanks, 2020), the timing couldn't be better. GreenJelly223: For sure, @BioGeek. They have a chance here to really create something that's as informational as it is entertaining. I also love how the books touch on themes of friendship and acceptance. If they keep that intact, it's going to be a hit. MicrobeMania: Anybody have any insider scoop on when we might be getting a peek at the animation or the voice cast? I'm super eager to see anything at this point! Bacteriophage_: Rumors say a teaser might drop sometime in the spring. Keep your eyes peeled and your streaming devices ready! AmoebaAmy: Well, here's hoping Kids WB keeps the slime rolling! Can't wait to see our little squishy buddy in action. Let's keep this thread updated with any new info! Admin5: This thread has been locked due to its inactivity over 30 days. Please feel free to open a new one if you have more news or want to continue the discussion about the upcoming Squish cartoon. Write a follow up where the premiere is in mid March, Also, Apple and Onion is being replaced by the return of reruns of Xiaolin Showdown, also TTG, Gumball and Johnny Test are still the flagships, Also The Tom and Jerry Show is over, and will be replaced by Steven Universe reruns in May Thread Title: Squish Premiere Date and Schedule Changes on Kids WB! Bacteriophage_: Hey everyone, big news! The Squish cartoon is set to premiere in mid-March! Clear your calendars and get ready for some amoeba action! Who's excited? CartoonAficionado: Finally, some concrete dates! I've been keeping an eye out since our last thread went quiet. Mid-March is sooner than I expected. Also heard about some schedule shake-ups. Looks like Apple and Onion is getting shelved for the Xiaolin Showdown reruns. Not sure how I feel about that one. AmoebaAmy: Squish is starting soon?! That's awesome! I'm totally having a viewing party with my kids. But wow, Apple and Onion out for Xiaolin Showdown...nostalgia trip, anyone? I did love that show, but it's a bit of a genre leap from Apple and Onion. RestInToons: RIP The Tom and Jerry Show. Kinda saw that ending coming. And to be replaced by Steven Universe reruns in May? I need new cartoons, not just rewinds. But Steven Universe is still a gem, at least. MicrobeMania: No more Tom and Jerry? That's the end of an era. Though, to be fair, SU reruns are solid. It's not every day you get a show that tackles heavy themes with magical aliens. Still, can't help but hope we get some fresh blood in the lineup eventually. ScienceRules45: True, new content is key, but at least we have Squish! And with TTG, Gumball, and Johnny Test holding the fort as flagships, I think Kids WB has a pretty balanced mix. Squish might just be the breath of fresh air we need right now. GreenJelly223: So, mid-March for Squish, that's great! Does anyone know if that's going to affect TTG, Gumball, or Johnny Test air times? I know they're the heavy hitters, just hoping Squish gets a good slot that doesn't clash. TheComicNerd21: Haven't seen anything about time changes for the flagships. I reckon Squish will find its place without much issue. Kids WB tends to do well with scheduling around their mainstays. And let's face it--TTG is practically unmovable at this point. HappyMom200: My kids will be over the moon with the return of Xiaolin Showdown. I loved it as a kid, too. It's going to be a mix of new and old at our house with Squish and the reruns. I think Kids WB might just pull off this balance. Still, hoping those reruns are just placeholders for future original content. ArtsyOwl: I'm just happy Squish is making its debut! Sure, schedule changes are always a bit of a rollercoaster, but that's the nature of TV, right? Out with the old, in with the new... and sometimes back in with the old! Admin5: Friendly reminder to keep industry rumor discussions civil. Looking forward to seeing how Squish is received by the community here! Let's revisit this thread after the premiere to share our thoughts. And, as always, stay tuned for any further schedule updates from Kids WB. Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up during the summer, The summer lineup has TTG, Gumball, Steven Universe, Xiaolin Showdown, Johnny Test, Squish, Skatoony, Scooby Doo and Guess Who, Looney Tunes Cartoons and Craig of the Creek, Also, new episodes of Ben 10, Looney Tunes Cartoons, Teen Titans Go, Craig of the Creek and Johnny Test return in September Thread Title: Kids WB Summer Lineup + Fall New Episodes Info! GreenJelly223: Summer's heating up, folks, and so is Kids WB's lineup! We're looking at TTG, Gumball, Steven Universe, and Xiaolin Showdown reruns. Plus, Squish, Skatoony, Scooby Doo and Guess Who, Looney Tunes Cartoons, and Craig of the Creek are all part of the mix. How's everyone feeling about the current programming? CartoonAficionado: Honestly, it's a bit of a mixed bag, but I'm not complaining! New fans are getting a taste of some classic toons with Xiaolin Showdown, and Squish has been a pleasant surprise--really nailing it. Plus, Craig of the Creek is always solid. It's like a buffet of different cartoon flavors this summer. Bacteriophage_: And don't forget what's coming in the fall - new episodes of Ben 10, Looney Tunes Cartoons, Teen Titans Go, Craig of the Creek, and Johnny Test. September can't come soon enough! AmoebaAmy: Squish has been an absolute delight! My kids adore it, and it's turning into our little summer tradition to watch together. As much as I love TTG and Gumball, it's Squish that has us tuning in with the most excitement. TheComicNerd21: A heads-up for all the true toon fans out there: new episodes for some of these shows are usually a blast. I've got high hopes for the fall, especially for Craig of the Creek--they've been consistently knocking it out of the park. ScienceRules45: I'm just glad we have such variety. Keeps the channel interesting. Summer is always tricky with kids home all day, but this lineup has something for everybody. ArtsyOwl: Agreed on the variety. The blend of classic and contemporary shows has me responding like I'm five and thirteen all at once. By the way, the art in the latest season of Looney Tunes Cartoons has been stellar. Can't wait to see what they do next. MicrobeMania: I am surprised how well Skatoony holds up. It's not everyone's cup of tea, but the quizzing with cartoons is unique. And with Scooby Doo and Guess Who featured, it feels like we've got a bit of a detective theme going on. Or is it just me? RestInToons: September seems pretty far, but I got a feeling that new Teen Titans Go and Johnny Test episodes will make some serious waves. Ben 10, too, has been gearing up for something big, at least that's the vibe. HappyMom200: It's a stable lineup for sure. Steven Universe reruns are still a hit in my house. Plus, I appreciate the educational value in shows like Squish. Keeps the kids learning even out of school--parents' summer dream! Admin5: Great to see such positivity about the lineup! As always, discuss your favorite shows, but please remember no spoilers for unaired episodes. Let's reconvene in this thread when the new episodes drop in September to share our thoughts and reviews! Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up where Robotboy is added to the schedule the next year in May 2022 when Summer begins, B10, LTC and SU are leaving, Robotboy, Skatoony and Chop Socky Chooks are taking their place, Also in the fall, we have a few new shows, Ultimate Spider-Man, Batman: The Brave and the bold and Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated, Also a new acquired comedy cartoon about 2 blobs Thread Title: Kids WB Schedule Shakeup - Hello Robotboy, So Long Ben 10 & Others! GreenJelly223: Hold onto your remotes, toon fans! Coming up next in May 2022, just as summer kicks off, Kids WB is adding Robotboy to the lineup. It's a nostalgia hit for sure but sad to see some good ones like Ben 10, Looney Tunes Cartoons, and Steven Universe leave us. Thoughts? TheComicNerd21: Man, Robotboy brings me back. Haven't seen that little guy in AGES. Sad to see Ben 10 go; it was always a solid watch. But, this is the life of a cartoon fan, right? Out with the old, in with the... older? Bacteriophage_: Robotboy's return is quite a surprise. It had that classic boy-and-his-robot vibe. Also, Skatoony and Chop Socky Chooks? That's quite the throwback. For those who don't remember, Chop Socky Chooks was this wild mix of kung fu and chickens--only in cartoons, folks! CartoonAficionado: Don't forget about the fall bonanza! Kids WB is loading up with some heavy hitters--Ultimate Spider-Man, Batman: The Brave and the Bold, and Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated. Plus, that new comedy about two blobs? Can't find much on it, but new content is always exciting! AmoebaAmy: Wait, so we're swapping out some superhero action with... different superhero action, and we're keeping the mystery with Scooby-Doo. And do I smell a strong comedy theme building up with the two blob cartoon? RestInToons: Totally digging the superhero update with Ultimate Spider-Man and Batman: The Brave and the Bold. They bring that comic book essence to the screen. And another comedy about blobs? Guess this one's the era of the blob, huh? ArtsyOwl: As much as I'll miss Steven Universe for its depth and progressivism, I guess I'm ready for something light-hearted. Robotboy and the blob comedy might just be the palate cleanser we need. Here's hoping they deliver some good laughs! MicrobeMania: Definitely a bummer about Ben 10 and SU. Those shows had such depth in storytelling and character development. But Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated is not to be slept on. That iteration has some of the best arcs for our mystery-solving gang! ScienceRules45: Batman: The Brave and the Bold was a gem! It didn't take itself too seriously and had just the right amount of camp. And with Ultimate Spider-Man, looks like we'll still be getting our fix of animated superhero action. HappyMom200: Love the move to Batman and Spider-Man. My kid has been on a real superhero kick, and Scooby-Doo never gets old. At least, not in my household. The blob comedy sounds intriguing--Kids WB isn't afraid to experiment, that's for sure! Admin5: With these cartoon cycles, it's always sad to see some shows go but equally exciting to welcome new titles and welcome back some classics like Robotboy. Remember, fall is just around the corner, so let's keep the conversation going when those new shows hit the screen. Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up where the blob cartoon is revealed to (be one I made up, hopefully I make it as a YouTube series) be named "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" Gloopy is a normal slime blob wheras Glitter lives up to her name as a sparkling one, Also, a mid season show Code Lyoko is premiering just as COTC knocks off for Summer, Also promos for CSC are already airing Thread Title: Revealed: "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" Joins Kids WB + Code Lyoko Mid-Season Premiere! CartoonAficionado: Alright, the mystery's solved! The new blob comedy coming to Kids WB is "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter". Gloopy is your average slime blob, and Glitter is, well, super sparkly! Could be a hit if it's done well. Fingers crossed it's as fun as the name suggests. GreenJelly223: "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter," huh? That's quite the name! I'm all for original content--bringing in some fresh 'slime' to the game. Kudos to the creator, especially if they started on YouTube. That's one giant leap for slime-kind. TheComicNerd21: Between Gloopy and Glitter, I'm expecting some madcap hijinks and, hopefully, some good chemistry. Pun totally intended! It's neat seeing creators move from YouTube to big networks. What a time to be alive! Bacteriophage_: Just saw the promo for Chop Socky Chooks! Honestly, I'd forgotten about that show, but the nostalgia hit me hard. Kids WB really knows how to draw in the old school fans alongside the new ones. AmoebaAmy: Excited to see what "Gloopy and Glitter" brings to the table! It's always refreshing to see new characters and stories. Also, did anyone catch that Code Lyoko is coming back as a mid-season show? That's unexpected! I remember watching that show as a kid--the blend of 2D and 3D animation was so cool. RestInToons: Code Lyoko? No way! That show was my virtual escape. With Craig of the Creek taking a summer break, Code Lyoko has some big shoes to fill. I'm cautiously optimistic. Also, kudos to the person behind "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter". This is indie creators' dream! ArtsyOwl: Craig of the Creek is my comfort show, so knowing it's taking a break has me in my feels. But Code Lyoko might just be the perfect summer binge to replace it. That show was ahead of its time with its virtual world storyline. MicrobeMania: With Chop Socky Chooks, Code Lyoko, and now "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter," I'm sensing a theme of whimsy and adventure. Perfect for a carefree summer! It's gonna be a wild ride on Kids WB. ScienceRules45: Indeed, summer is shaping up to be full of adventure and laughs! I'm curious to see the comedic dynamics between Gloopy and Glitter and how they'll fit into the current lineup. Code Lyoko is an excellent addition for anyone who's into that sci-fi, virtual reality vibe. HappyMom200: Just peeped the promo for Gloopy and Glitter with the kids. They're already quoting lines and chuckling. Also, major props to Kids WB for the diversity in its programming--you've got old hits, modern takes, and now a homegrown web series making it to the big leagues. Admin5: The summer is looking quite adventurous with all the fresh and returning programming we have on our hands! If "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" or Code Lyoko capture your hearts, be sure to come back and let everyone know. Enjoy the shows, everyone, and let's support those indie creators making waves! Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up where another mid-season show premieres, replacing Gumball, The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers Thread Title: Mid-Season Update: The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers Replace Gumball on Kids WB! TheComicNerd21: Big news for Kids WB watchers! "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" is premiering mid-season, taking the spot "The Amazing World of Gumball" left behind. I've got high hopes that these thrill-seeking siblings will bring the same level of zany to the lineup. Can they live up to the hilarity of Gumball, though? That's the big question. GreenJelly223: Gumball's out?! Say it isn't so! That show was a staple! But I remember The Adrenalini Brothers from awhile back...they were full of over-the-top stunts and accents. Hopefully, they can fill the quirky cartoon void that's gonna be left in Gumball's wake. CartoonAficionado: "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" are pure comedic gold with those daredevil antics. Gumball set a high bar for humor and heart, but if you want outrageous adventures and laughs, the Adrenalinis could be just the ticket. ArtsyOwl: I admit, I'll miss the random humor and clever writing of Gumball. It was one of those shows that had something for viewers of all ages. The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers have a different flavor, but I'm definitely willing to give them a shot. Bacteriophage_: Well folks, all good things must come to an end, but at least the high-paced energy of The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers might fill the void. They're not new to the cartoon scene, but let's hope their stunts are as amazing as ever. MicrobeMania: "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" is a throwback! Those guys pull off some wild stunts. Kids WB seems to be aiming for high octane to take Gumball's place. Keeping my fingers crossed that they keep delivering fresh content, even in the form of older gems getting the spotlight again. RestInToons: Guess it's goodbye to Gumball and hello Adrenalini. I remember the brothers having quite the international flair. Their eclectic style should make for a refreshing change of pace. Plus, with Squish and the others, Kids WB's variety is still on point. AmoebaAmy: My kids loved Gumball, so they're a bit gutted. But I think The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers' daredevil acts might just win them over. I'm always down for more shenanigans. Here's hoping they get as much character-driven hilarity as Gumball had. ScienceRules45: Gumball's creativity was unmatched, but The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers? That's a nostalgia trip! Will be interesting to see how a show that's been off the radar for a while resonates with the current audience. HappyMom200: My Gumball marathon nights are coming to an end it seems. The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers have some big shoes to fill, but I'm ready for the laughs. In Kids WB we trust, right? Admin5: Change is part of every TV network's lifecycle. "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" could be what kids WB needs to shake things up. Let's give these fearless brothers a chance and reconvene here to discuss the stunts, humor, and how the show fits into the new dynamic!

Welcome Back Craig & Gumball + Code Lyoko Stays! GreenJelly223: It's fall premiere season, everyone! And with the leaves changing comes new changes to Kids WB. Code Lyoko has secured its spot on the schedule, which I know some of you are thrilled about. The Amazing World of Gumball and Craig of the Creek are making a short-lived comeback, dipping out again in January. Can't get enough of those two, so I'm here for any time they're on. CartoonAficionado: Great to have Gumball and Craig back, even if it's just for a quick hello and goodbye. It's like that favorite seasonal dish you can't stop craving. And Code Lyoko sticking around? Love that for us--those virtual vibes aren't going anywhere! TheComicNerd21: Ah, the temporary returns of Gumball and Craig are bittersweet. Makes you wish they'd just stick around full-time. But, I gotta say, Code Lyoko keeping its slot is A-okay with me. That's one show I've been seriously getting back into. ArtsyOwl: The quality storytelling in Craig of the Creek will be sorely missed once January rolls around. And Gumball--it just has that rewatchability factor like no other. Soak it up while you can, folks! MicrobeMania: Just dropping in to say that Skatoony is going to be back next summer, and I'm here for it! It's kind of become the unofficial summer tradition since 2018, hasn't it? Always great to see a show that knows how to fill its seasonal shoes. Bacteriophage_: Yeah, Skatoony's like that cool summer camp you get excited about all year. But let's not overlook the fall newcomers too--I'm already setting reminders for Ultimate Spider-Man and Batman: The Brave and the Bold. The superhero binge is real! RestInToons: Mixed feelings about the short-term return of Gumball and Craig of the Creek. At least we know Kids WB is good at giving us something to look forward to. As for Code Lyoko, it's been interesting to see a show from yesteryear find its groove with the audience today. AmoebaAmy: The limited time with Gumball and Craig is better than no time! Let's enjoy the laughs and adventures while they last. And happy to have confirmed scoops like the one about Skatoony return--it's this kind of knowledge that keeps the fandom ticking. ScienceRules45: I've gotten used to the shift and shuffle of Kids WB's schedule. You learn to appreciate what you've got when you've got it. That said, I'm diving headfirst into the nostalgia and newness of this fall's lineup. It's going to be an entertaining season! HappyMom200: I'm grateful for any sprinkles of Craig of the Creek episodes we get! It's such a gem. And does anyone else get way too competitive watching Skatoony, or is that just me? Super stoked about its return next year! Admin5: Some very astute observations and a tangible excitement for the new and returning shows this fall! Let's enjoy this season's offerings, and, as always, keep the conversations engaging as we head into the new year with all its sure-to-be-surprising programming and inevitable farewells.

GreenJelly223: Hey toon enthusiasts! As we hit the sunny stride of 2023, Kids WB is switching up the schedule. We're saying bye to Batman, Scooby, and Spidey. But don't despair--Ozzy & Drix, World of Quest, and the ever-reliable Skatoony are here for those summer vibes. Also, "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" are still doing the rerun rounds. Keeping it fresh and funky! CartoonAficionado: Honestly, it's cool to see Ozzy & Drix making a comeback. That show was always under the radar but it delivered some solid laughs plus a bit of body-function education. Let's see how it holds up today! TheComicNerd21: No more Batman and Spidey is a bummer, but you know what? Bring on the Ozzy & Drix and World of Quest! I remember World of Quest being pretty out there with its humor, a good mix of action and oddball characters--definitely fitting for the wacky tone of summer. MicrobeMania: Ozzy & Drix, that's a throwback! I had a feeling it could make a resurgence. Educational and entertaining--that's a tough balance to strike, but that show had it. Also, cheers to year 5 of summer Skatoony--it's tradition at this point! ArtsyOwl: Hey, "Gloopy and Glitter" are still in the reruns, too! Shimmering on--quite literally, thanks to Glitter. It's a quirky and cute show, glad it's still around for the little ones to enjoy. Bacteriophage_: Seeing World of Quest drop into the lineup makes me hopeful that Kids WB is dedicated to keeping variety alive. Adventure, humor, outright weirdness--it's got it all. And combined with the educational fun from Ozzy & Drix, plus the game show laughs from Skatoony? Count me in for the summer! RestInToons: Sayonara superheroes! This season's lineup shows that kids' programming isn't just about capes and villains. It's about variety, surprise, and a touch of nostalgia. Let's get microscopic with Ozzy & Drix and go on a wild ride with Quest and Nestor! AmoebaAmy: Always a tad sad to see the Scooby gang go, but switching up genres keeps things interesting. Ozzy & Drix is kind of like "The Magic School Bus" for the older crowd, and I'm here for it! Plus, Skatoony is something my kids look forward to every year--glad it's not going anywhere! ScienceRules45: I've got to say, I appreciate how Kids WB keeps mixing in educational content amidst all the comedy and action. Ozzy & Drix is a blast from the past that I'm excited to revisit. It's just what we need in a world that could use a refresher on health and the human body! HappyMom200: World of Quest is an underrated treasure, and I'm thrilled it's coming back into the spotlight. It's like that fun summer book series but animated. And Skatoony is practically synonymous with summer now; glad to know some things stay solid. Admin5: The summer outlook is looking diverse and delightful! With shows that cater to every kind of young fan, there's no shortage of entertainment.

January 27 2024 Should have seen this coming the day TAWOG and COTC left for good, but Kids WB died on December 30, We now have the CW4Kids, owned by 4Kids Entertainment, and the first schedule change has happened, Squish and The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers have been replaced with Pokemon: Indigo League and Sonic X respectively, The block still has the Kids WB aesthetic, but I expect that to be gone by Easter, Also, another schedule change is coming in a few months, Teen Titans Go, Scooby Doo Mystery Inc and Batman the Brave and the Bold are being replaced with GoGoRiki (Smeshariki), Ultimate Muscle and Kirby: Right Back At Ya in 2 weeks, The remaining KWB shows as of now are Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, Code Lyoko, Ultimate Spider Man (and in 2 weeks, Gloopy and Glitter). The way they went about this was interesting, In December they started airing promos saying that from January 7 the network would be changing it's name, it didn't tell us that 4Kids are now in charge or that there would be new shows, the promo just showed the usual KWB shows like Squish, TAAB, TTG, XS, etc. Also today the promo for the next schedule change (dubbed a Super Duper Late Winter Lineup) has a new slogan "You're signed on to the CW4Kids" Slow and painful rebrand? , If you're not gonna change the bumpers untill Easter then why reveal your flashy new slogan now. Also the website (thecw4kids.com) STILL says this at the footer "(c) 2024 Warner Bros Discovery, Paramount Global, Nexstar Media Group" Hopefully it is updated to reflect 4Kids's involvement soon. Write a follow up forum convo where they talk more about the slow transition, and that GoGoRiki is cute, and that it could be primed to take over most of the current comedy cartoons Thread Title: CW4Kids: A Slow Transition & The Future of Cartoons on the Block? ToonMasterJay: So, has anyone else noticed how the CW4Kids transition is kinda like watching paint dry? The bumpers feel like Kids WB is haunting us. And they're dropping their new slogan already, but the website footer is still all about the old guard... Mixed signals much? DigitalToonFan: Yeah, the transition is definitely dragging its feet. I mean, if you're going to bring in 4Kids, then do it with a bang! Not this half-Zoom half-real-life meeting vibe. The new lineup switches could be cool though, but I'll miss Squish and The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers for sure. GoGoFan223: Honestly, I'm most excited about GoGoRiki (or Smeshariki for the purists). It's cute and has that potential to be big with the comedy crowd. Less about the action and more laughs--could be the perfect fit for the new direction they're aiming for. SonicXforever: Still processing the swap of Squish for Pokemon and TAAB for Sonic X... I mean, sure, classics! But Sonic X has been rerun how many times now? I guess they're banking on that nostalgia factor to reel us in while they're redecorating. PokeNostalgia101: Not going to lie, I'm excited to have Pokemon Indigo League back--it's like comfort food for my soul. But I hear you all, the change is weirdly slow. I get that it's a big shift from Kids WB to full-on 4Kids ownership, yet you'd think they'd want to make their mark quick. LyokoLover: Low-key glad Code Lyoko and Xiaolin Showdown are sticking around. They've got that unique appeal that isn't easy to replace. But curious how long till that changes with this new "Super Duper Late Winter Lineup." If they're ushering out TTG and Scooby, who's next? Animanga4Life: Ultimate Muscle and Kirby: Right Back At Ya coming to the block brings back fond Saturday morning memories! Although, I do get why some are skeptical; a lot of these shows have seen multiple reruns over the years. WebWader: I keep checking the website hoping it's been updated... No dice. The weird blend of old and new branding isn't helping anyone. At least update the footer to show 4Kids is steering the ship now. How hard can it be? ComicStripKid: The lineup change feels like a balance between targeting the parents who grew up with these shows and trying to appeal to the new gen of cartoon fans. GoGoRiki's charm and simplicity could be their ticket into the latter's hearts. I see a mascot in the making. ToonTalker91: Not thrilled about the slow pace here. It's like we're stuck in Kids WB limbo. I miss the days when a rebrand meant a fresh start, not this lingering goodbye. Curious how Gloopy and Glitter will fare with the rest of the changes looming... Will they be the last ones standing? Admin_4KidsRevamp: Please bear with us during this transition. We're working hard to bring a fresh and exciting lineup while honoring the legacy of what came before. Believe us, it'll be worth the wait! Stay tuned for more updates and enjoy the shows in the meantime. Thread Closed by Admin_4KidsRevamp Write a follow up in mid Feb where the Feb lineup is here, 5 4Kids shows (Pokemon, Sonic, Ultimate Muscle, Kirby and GoGoRiki) and 5 Kids WB shows (Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, Ultimate Spider Man, Gloopy and Glitter and Code Lyoko) Also, the website now has an account and points system, games, and has updated the footer to "(c) 2024 4Kids Entertainment", Website otherwise remains the same, and still has show pages for removed shows, but this will slowly change in the coming weeks Thread Title: CW4Kids Mid-Feb Lineup is Live! Balance of Old and New + Website Updates DigitalToonFan: The balance has been struck, folks! Five 4Kids classics--Pokemon, Sonic, Ultimate Muscle, Kirby, and GoGoRiki--and five Kids WB staples--Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, Ultimate Spider Man, Gloopy and Glitter, and Code Lyoko. It's a mix of eras in one block! ToonMasterJay: Checked out the CW4Kids website, they finally ditched the old footer. It's official, this ship is sailing under the 4Kids flag now. Nice to see they're stepping up their game with accounts and points, plus some games to boot! Animanga4Life: 4Kids moving in with accounts and points? Sounds like they're setting up a cool rewards system. And that might just get more kids invested in the website beyond streaming shows--a savvy move. GoGoFan223: GoGoRiki getting prime time with the big 4Kids dogs is great news. Its cute factor is off the charts. Could be the one to round out the new vibe CW4Kids is going for if they play their cards right. SonicXforever: Glad to see Sonic racing into the lineup. It's about time he got back into the limelight. Now to see how he fares among the newer offerings. Talk about a speed battle! PokeNostalgia101: Pokemon getting its rightful place has me all fired up! But it's kinda odd to still see show pages for the ousted shows on the website. Anyone else notice that? Hopefully, they'll clear that up soon. LyokoLover: The fact that Code Lyoko is sticking around amidst all the changes shows its resilience. Maybe 4Kids recognizes the gold they have with some of these Kids WB shows. The perfect yin to their yang. ComicStripKid: Well, can't say 4Kids isn't taking a balanced approach to this transition. Keeping half the lineup from Kids WB seems like a strategic way to ensure they don't lose the existing audience while they woo new viewers with nostalgia and updated features. WebWader: The website is getting there, slowly but surely. With account functionality and games, it looks like 4Kids is channeling some vintage interactivity magic. Here's to mission: engage the digitally-savvy generation! ToonTalker91: Seeing "(c) 2024 4Kids Entertainment" at the bottom of the website gives me mixed emotions--it's good to see they're updating stuff, but the nostalgia for Kids WB is real. Any bets on how long Gloopy and Glitter can hold out? Admin_4KidsRevamp: Thanks for sticking with us through the changes! We're excited about the new lineup and website features, and this is just the beginning. As for the site, we're rolling out updates over the next few weeks to ensure the best experience for all our visitors.

Plus, line-up's getting shaken up again--big time! DigitalToonFan: Heard the scoop that Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, and Ultimate Spider Man are waving goodbye. But we're keeping the virtual adventures of Code Lyoko and the quirky "Gloopy and Glitter"--two survivors of the cull. Animanga4Life: For the manga/anime fans, Pokemon Horizons: The Series is swooping in to replace the original Pokemon series! Exciting to see some new journeys and battles. Gotta love the continuous evolution of the Pokemon franchise on the CW4Kids. GoGoFan223: And what about that triple threat joining the fray? Chaotic, TMNT: Back to the Sewer, and Viva Pinata are about to spice things up! Feels like 4Kids is tossing in as many flavors as they can to see what sticks. SonicXforever: Greatest thing about CW4Kids right now? They're not afraid to mix it up. The digital look update has me hyped--it's like the block is leveling up. Hopefully, it adds a fresh vibe that resonates with the digital generation. PokeNostalgia101: Pokemon Horizons: The Series will def pull in the crowd looking for that cutting-edge anime action. Pokemon always knows how to keep things fresh. LyokoLover: Sad to see some old friends go, but Code Lyoko holding strong gives me hope. It's like our own little slice of stability in this whirlwind of changes. ComicStripKid: With the digital online style coming, CW4Kids is clearly gunning for a certain look and feel. Let's just cross our fingers it blends seamlessly with the cartoon essence we all tune in for. WebWader: Do you think bringing in Chaotic, TMNT, and Viva Pinata is going too far back into the vault? I'm all for nostalgia, but I hope they still invest in newer properties or original content. Balance is key. ToonTalker91: Big stuff with Pokemon Horizons; it's been creating buzz all over! As for Chaotic and TMNT: Back to the Sewer, that's unexpected! Not so sure what to expect from Viva Pinata, though... a wildcard entry, I'd say. Admin_4KidsRevamp: Expect the unexpected with CW4Kids! We're committed to delivering a modern digital vibe with the shows you love, new and old. Mid-April is going to be a milestone moment for the block, so prepare for an eye-catching refresh and lineup that packs a punch! Write a forum convo in early December saying Kids WB is being "vaulted" on April 6 which is the final day of the comic book branding and JT, XS and USM, Also on April 12, a preview eventDecember 30, CW4Kids will be hosted on The Ceinitially have the same schedule as part of the transitional period
CHATBOT: Thread Title: Major News: Kids WB "Vaulted" on December 30 - Transition to CW4Kids Begins ToonMasterJay: Big news drop, folks! Just got confirmation that Kids WB will officially be "vaulted" on December 30th. From what I understand, CW4Kids will take over, but they're kicking things off with the same Kids WB schedule during the transitional period. Thoughts? DigitalToonFan: Wow, end of an era with Kids WB! But keeping the same schedule initially is a smart move. It eases the audience into the transition. Curious about how long it'll take before they start shaking things up. GoGoFan223: Definitely bittersweet. Kids WB has been such a staple. The transitional period using the same schedule feels like a respectful nod to its legacy. Hoping CW4Kids can carry the torch well. SonicXforever: Honestly, it's both exciting and a little worrying. Kids WB had a unique charm. If CW4Kids can maintain that while bringing in fresh content, we're good. But that initial same schedule move is clever--softens the blow. PokeNostalgia101: Mixed feelings here. Kids WB introduced me to so many favorites, including Pokemon. The transitional period strategy is wise, but what I really want to see is how CW4Kids will distinguish itself while respecting the roots. LyokoLover: Glad they're not pulling the rug out from under us with an immediate overhaul. Keeping the Kids WB schedule at first gives us time to adjust. Just hope Code Lyoko stays in the mix long-term with CW4Kids. Animanga4Life: This transitional period is a double-edged sword. It's great for easing the audience into the new brand, but it also sets expectations for CW4Kids to eventually push the envelope and introduce innovative content. ComicStripKid: "Vaulted," huh? Feels like locking away a piece of childhood. But progress is inevitable. The key to CW4Kids' success will be finding a balance between old-school fans of Kids WB and attracting new viewers with upcoming changes. WebWader: I get the strategy behind starting with the same schedule. Smooth transition and all that. Still, the digital landscape is always changing, and so are viewers' tastes. CW4Kids needs to hit the ground running with updates soon after. ToonTalker91: It's a cautious approach, which makes sense. Yet, the anticipation of what CW4Kids will eventually roll out is palpable. Here's to hoping they uphold the legacy while carving out a fresh identity. Admin_4KidsForum: Hello everyone! We appreciate your passion and feedback during this significant tra...
CHATBOT: Thread Title: Did Anyone Else Catch That Kids WB/CW4Kids Transition Ad? ToonMasterJay: So, just saw the ad--"Kids WB is being vaulted on January 6, but the CW4Kids is HERE!!" They're really pushing the transition with clips from the current lineup. But did anyone else notice they included clips from a show that was supposedly removed weeks ago? Looks like 4Kids might be keeping it after all? DigitalToonFan: Yeah, caught that ad too! I was surprised to see [Removed Show] in there. Wasn't it axed from the schedule recently? If 4Kids is keeping it, that's a game changer. Maybe they're listening to fan feedback more than we thought? GoGoFan223: For real, I thought I was imagining things! Seeing [Removed Show] was like spotting a ghost. It's kinda exciting, though--it was one of my favorites. This could mean CW4Kids is planning a few surprises for us. SonicXforever: I have mixed feelings about the ad. On one hand, it's cool to see them bridging the gap between Kids WB and CW4Kids smoothly. On the other, if they're keeping [Removed Show], why the secrecy? Just announce it already! PokeNostalgia101: That ad had me nostalgic and hopeful at the same time. Including [Removed Show] might just be a marketing slip, or perhaps a deliberate tease? Either way, it's clever. It keeps us talking and guessing about what CW4Kids has up its sleeve. LyokoLover: Noticed that too! If [Removed Show] is staying, it would be such a relief. It didn't deserve the chop. Maybe CW4Kids is aiming for a blend of old and new, respecting the legacy while steering in their new direction. Animanga4Life: The ad was a nice touch, nostalgia-wise. But yeah, showing [Removed Show] has to be more than just an editing mistake. Maybe 4Kids is testing the waters, seeing how fans react to certain shows being hinted at for a return? ComicStripKid: Caught my eye as well. Honestly, it's a smart play by 4Kids/CW4Kids, even if it was unintended. Now, everyone's buzzing about what's staying and what's going. Hopefully, this means they're open to bringing back fan-favorites based on viewer interest. WebWader: The transition ad was a neat idea, but including clips from [Removed Show] raises questions. Is it a marketing strategy or a genuine hint at the lineup? Either way, it's got us fans engaged and discussing--well played, 4Kids. ToonTalker91: That ad gave me a glimmer of hope for CW4Kids. If they're possibly retaining [Removed Show], it signals they're not just about sweeping changes but also about keeping w...

USER: Thread Title: Squish Cartoon Coming to Kids WB! Mid-Season Madness GreenJelly223: Hey Squish fans! Did you guys hear the news? There's a Squish cartoon in the works and it's hitting Kids WB's mid-season lineup! Can't wait to see our favorite amoeba make the jump from page to screen! MicrobeMania: No way, this is awesome! Squish has been one of my favorite graphic novel series for my kids. They're going to freak out! Have they announced who's behind the animation or any voice actors yet? AmoebaAmy: OMG, this made my day! I stumbled onto the news on Twitter but wasn't sure if it was real. I just hope they keep the charm of the comics. The sense of humor in Squish is just right for a cartoon! ScienceRules45: @MicrobeMania I read that the team behind some of the recent popular cartoons is on board for this. As for voice actors, nothing's announced yet. I'm crossing my fingers they get some quality talent. Hoping for some great chemistry between Squish, Pod, and Peggy. TheComicNerd21: True, voice acting can make or break a cartoon adaptation. I'm a bit skeptical, tbh. Sometimes these transitions lose the spirit of the original material. But I'll reserve judgment until we get a trailer or something. ArtsyOwl: Has anyone heard about the art style yet? The simplistic yet expressive style of the books is super charming. Kids WB tends to go for flashier animation, though I hope they keep it close to the spirit of the Squish comics. HappyMom200: I just hope they tackle the educational aspects well. My kids learned so much about microorganisms from these books while laughing their heads off. It'll be great for them to watch Squish's adventures! BioGeek: Yes! Education through entertainment is the best. I mean, who knew an amoeba could make science this fun? And considering we've all become amateur virologists lately (thanks, 2020), the timing couldn't be better. GreenJelly223: For sure, @BioGeek. They have a chance here to really create something that's as informational as it is entertaining. I also love how the books touch on themes of friendship and acceptance. If they keep that intact, it's going to be a hit. MicrobeMania: Anybody have any insider scoop on when we might be getting a peek at the animation or the voice cast? I'm super eager to see anything at this point! Bacteriophage_: Rumors say a teaser might drop sometime in the spring. Keep your eyes peeled and your streaming devices ready! AmoebaAmy: Well, here's hoping Kids WB keeps the slime rolling! Can't wait to see our little squishy buddy in action. Let's keep this thread updated with any new info! Admin5: This thread has been locked due to its inactivity over 30 days. Please feel free to open a new one if you have more news or want to continue the discussion about the upcoming Squish cartoon. Write a follow up where the premiere is in mid March, Also, Apple and Onion is being replaced by the return of reruns of Xiaolin Showdown, also TTG, Gumball and Johnny Test are still the flagships, Also The Tom and Jerry Show is over, and will be replaced by Steven Universe reruns in May Thread Title: Squish Premiere Date and Schedule Changes on Kids WB! Bacteriophage_: Hey everyone, big news! The Squish cartoon is set to premiere in mid-March! Clear your calendars and get ready for some amoeba action! Who's excited? CartoonAficionado: Finally, some concrete dates! I've been keeping an eye out since our last thread went quiet. Mid-March is sooner than I expected. Also heard about some schedule shake-ups. Looks like Apple and Onion is getting shelved for the Xiaolin Showdown reruns. Not sure how I feel about that one. AmoebaAmy: Squish is starting soon?! That's awesome! I'm totally having a viewing party with my kids. But wow, Apple and Onion out for Xiaolin Showdown...nostalgia trip, anyone? I did love that show, but it's a bit of a genre leap from Apple and Onion. RestInToons: RIP The Tom and Jerry Show. Kinda saw that ending coming. And to be replaced by Steven Universe reruns in May? I need new cartoons, not just rewinds. But Steven Universe is still a gem, at least. MicrobeMania: No more Tom and Jerry? That's the end of an era. Though, to be fair, SU reruns are solid. It's not every day you get a show that tackles heavy themes with magical aliens. Still, can't help but hope we get some fresh blood in the lineup eventually. ScienceRules45: True, new content is key, but at least we have Squish! And with TTG, Gumball, and Johnny Test holding the fort as flagships, I think Kids WB has a pretty balanced mix. Squish might just be the breath of fresh air we need right now. GreenJelly223: So, mid-March for Squish, that's great! Does anyone know if that's going to affect TTG, Gumball, or Johnny Test air times? I know they're the heavy hitters, just hoping Squish gets a good slot that doesn't clash. TheComicNerd21: Haven't seen anything about time changes for the flagships. I reckon Squish will find its place without much issue. Kids WB tends to do well with scheduling around their mainstays. And let's face it--TTG is practically unmovable at this point. HappyMom200: My kids will be over the moon with the return of Xiaolin Showdown. I loved it as a kid, too. It's going to be a mix of new and old at our house with Squish and the reruns. I think Kids WB might just pull off this balance. Still, hoping those reruns are just placeholders for future original content. ArtsyOwl: I'm just happy Squish is making its debut! Sure, schedule changes are always a bit of a rollercoaster, but that's the nature of TV, right? Out with the old, in with the new... and sometimes back in with the old! Admin5: Friendly reminder to keep industry rumor discussions civil. Looking forward to seeing how Squish is received by the community here! Let's revisit this thread after the premiere to share our thoughts. And, as always, stay tuned for any further schedule updates from Kids WB. Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up during the summer, The summer lineup has TTG, Gumball, Steven Universe, Xiaolin Showdown, Johnny Test, Squish, Skatoony, Scooby Doo and Guess Who, Looney Tunes Cartoons and Craig of the Creek, Also, new episodes of Ben 10, Looney Tunes Cartoons, Teen Titans Go, Craig of the Creek and Johnny Test return in September Thread Title: Kids WB Summer Lineup + Fall New Episodes Info! GreenJelly223: Summer's heating up, folks, and so is Kids WB's lineup! We're looking at TTG, Gumball, Steven Universe, and Xiaolin Showdown reruns. Plus, Squish, Skatoony, Scooby Doo and Guess Who, Looney Tunes Cartoons, and Craig of the Creek are all part of the mix. How's everyone feeling about the current programming? CartoonAficionado: Honestly, it's a bit of a mixed bag, but I'm not complaining! New fans are getting a taste of some classic toons with Xiaolin Showdown, and Squish has been a pleasant surprise--really nailing it. Plus, Craig of the Creek is always solid. It's like a buffet of different cartoon flavors this summer. Bacteriophage_: And don't forget what's coming in the fall - new episodes of Ben 10, Looney Tunes Cartoons, Teen Titans Go, Craig of the Creek, and Johnny Test. September can't come soon enough! AmoebaAmy: Squish has been an absolute delight! My kids adore it, and it's turning into our little summer tradition to watch together. As much as I love TTG and Gumball, it's Squish that has us tuning in with the most excitement. TheComicNerd21: A heads-up for all the true toon fans out there: new episodes for some of these shows are usually a blast. I've got high hopes for the fall, especially for Craig of the Creek--they've been consistently knocking it out of the park. ScienceRules45: I'm just glad we have such variety. Keeps the channel interesting. Summer is always tricky with kids home all day, but this lineup has something for everybody. ArtsyOwl: Agreed on the variety. The blend of classic and contemporary shows has me responding like I'm five and thirteen all at once. By the way, the art in the latest season of Looney Tunes Cartoons has been stellar. Can't wait to see what they do next. MicrobeMania: I am surprised how well Skatoony holds up. It's not everyone's cup of tea, but the quizzing with cartoons is unique. And with Scooby Doo and Guess Who featured, it feels like we've got a bit of a detective theme going on. Or is it just me? RestInToons: September seems pretty far, but I got a feeling that new Teen Titans Go and Johnny Test episodes will make some serious waves. Ben 10, too, has been gearing up for something big, at least that's the vibe. HappyMom200: It's a stable lineup for sure. Steven Universe reruns are still a hit in my house. Plus, I appreciate the educational value in shows like Squish. Keeps the kids learning even out of school--parents' summer dream! Admin5: Great to see such positivity about the lineup! As always, discuss your favorite shows, but please remember no spoilers for unaired episodes. Let's reconvene in this thread when the new episodes drop in September to share our thoughts and reviews! Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up where Robotboy is added to the schedule the next year in May 2022 when Summer begins, B10, LTC and SU are leaving, Robotboy, Skatoony and Chop Socky Chooks are taking their place, Also in the fall, we have a few new shows, Ultimate Spider-Man, Batman: The Brave and the bold and Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated, Also a new acquired comedy cartoon about 2 blobs Thread Title: Kids WB Schedule Shakeup - Hello Robotboy, So Long Ben 10 & Others! GreenJelly223: Hold onto your remotes, toon fans! Coming up next in May 2022, just as summer kicks off, Kids WB is adding Robotboy to the lineup. It's a nostalgia hit for sure but sad to see some good ones like Ben 10, Looney Tunes Cartoons, and Steven Universe leave us. Thoughts? TheComicNerd21: Man, Robotboy brings me back. Haven't seen that little guy in AGES. Sad to see Ben 10 go; it was always a solid watch. But, this is the life of a cartoon fan, right? Out with the old, in with the... older? Bacteriophage_: Robotboy's return is quite a surprise. It had that classic boy-and-his-robot vibe. Also, Skatoony and Chop Socky Chooks? That's quite the throwback. For those who don't remember, Chop Socky Chooks was this wild mix of kung fu and chickens--only in cartoons, folks! CartoonAficionado: Don't forget about the fall bonanza! Kids WB is loading up with some heavy hitters--Ultimate Spider-Man, Batman: The Brave and the Bold, and Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated. Plus, that new comedy about two blobs? Can't find much on it, but new content is always exciting! AmoebaAmy: Wait, so we're swapping out some superhero action with... different superhero action, and we're keeping the mystery with Scooby-Doo. And do I smell a strong comedy theme building up with the two blob cartoon? RestInToons: Totally digging the superhero update with Ultimate Spider-Man and Batman: The Brave and the Bold. They bring that comic book essence to the screen. And another comedy about blobs? Guess this one's the era of the blob, huh? ArtsyOwl: As much as I'll miss Steven Universe for its depth and progressivism, I guess I'm ready for something light-hearted. Robotboy and the blob comedy might just be the palate cleanser we need. Here's hoping they deliver some good laughs! MicrobeMania: Definitely a bummer about Ben 10 and SU. Those shows had such depth in storytelling and character development. But Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated is not to be slept on. That iteration has some of the best arcs for our mystery-solving gang! ScienceRules45: Batman: The Brave and the Bold was a gem! It didn't take itself too seriously and had just the right amount of camp. And with Ultimate Spider-Man, looks like we'll still be getting our fix of animated superhero action. HappyMom200: Love the move to Batman and Spider-Man. My kid has been on a real superhero kick, and Scooby-Doo never gets old. At least, not in my household. The blob comedy sounds intriguing--Kids WB isn't afraid to experiment, that's for sure! Admin5: With these cartoon cycles, it's always sad to see some shows go but equally exciting to welcome new titles and welcome back some classics like Robotboy. Remember, fall is just around the corner, so let's keep the conversation going when those new shows hit the screen. Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up where the blob cartoon is revealed to (be one I made up, hopefully I make it as a YouTube series) be named "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" Gloopy is a normal slime blob wheras Glitter lives up to her name as a sparkling one, Also, a mid season show Code Lyoko is premiering just as COTC knocks off for Summer, Also promos for CSC are already airing Thread Title: Revealed: "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" Joins Kids WB + Code Lyoko Mid-Season Premiere! CartoonAficionado: Alright, the mystery's solved! The new blob comedy coming to Kids WB is "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter". Gloopy is your average slime blob, and Glitter is, well, super sparkly! Could be a hit if it's done well. Fingers crossed it's as fun as the name suggests. GreenJelly223: "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter," huh? That's quite the name! I'm all for original content--bringing in some fresh 'slime' to the game. Kudos to the creator, especially if they started on YouTube. That's one giant leap for slime-kind. TheComicNerd21: Between Gloopy and Glitter, I'm expecting some madcap hijinks and, hopefully, some good chemistry. Pun totally intended! It's neat seeing creators move from YouTube to big networks. What a time to be alive! Bacteriophage_: Just saw the promo for Chop Socky Chooks! Honestly, I'd forgotten about that show, but the nostalgia hit me hard. Kids WB really knows how to draw in the old school fans alongside the new ones. AmoebaAmy: Excited to see what "Gloopy and Glitter" brings to the table! It's always refreshing to see new characters and stories. Also, did anyone catch that Code Lyoko is coming back as a mid-season show? That's unexpected! I remember watching that show as a kid--the blend of 2D and 3D animation was so cool. RestInToons: Code Lyoko? No way! That show was my virtual escape. With Craig of the Creek taking a summer break, Code Lyoko has some big shoes to fill. I'm cautiously optimistic. Also, kudos to the person behind "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter". This is indie creators' dream! ArtsyOwl: Craig of the Creek is my comfort show, so knowing it's taking a break has me in my feels. But Code Lyoko might just be the perfect summer binge to replace it. That show was ahead of its time with its virtual world storyline. MicrobeMania: With Chop Socky Chooks, Code Lyoko, and now "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter," I'm sensing a theme of whimsy and adventure. Perfect for a carefree summer! It's gonna be a wild ride on Kids WB. ScienceRules45: Indeed, summer is shaping up to be full of adventure and laughs! I'm curious to see the comedic dynamics between Gloopy and Glitter and how they'll fit into the current lineup. Code Lyoko is an excellent addition for anyone who's into that sci-fi, virtual reality vibe. HappyMom200: Just peeped the promo for Gloopy and Glitter with the kids. They're already quoting lines and chuckling. Also, major props to Kids WB for the diversity in its programming--you've got old hits, modern takes, and now a homegrown web series making it to the big leagues. Admin5: The summer is looking quite adventurous with all the fresh and returning programming we have on our hands! If "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" or Code Lyoko capture your hearts, be sure to come back and let everyone know. Enjoy the shows, everyone, and let's support those indie creators making waves! Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up where another mid-season show premieres, replacing Gumball, The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers Thread Title: Mid-Season Update: The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers Replace Gumball on Kids WB! TheComicNerd21: Big news for Kids WB watchers! "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" is premiering mid-season, taking the spot "The Amazing World of Gumball" left behind. I've got high hopes that these thrill-seeking siblings will bring the same level of zany to the lineup. Can they live up to the hilarity of Gumball, though? That's the big question. GreenJelly223: Gumball's out?! Say it isn't so! That show was a staple! But I remember The Adrenalini Brothers from awhile back...they were full of over-the-top stunts and accents. Hopefully, they can fill the quirky cartoon void that's gonna be left in Gumball's wake. CartoonAficionado: "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" are pure comedic gold with those daredevil antics. Gumball set a high bar for humor and heart, but if you want outrageous adventures and laughs, the Adrenalinis could be just the ticket. ArtsyOwl: I admit, I'll miss the random humor and clever writing of Gumball. It was one of those shows that had something for viewers of all ages. The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers have a different flavor, but I'm definitely willing to give them a shot. Bacteriophage_: Well folks, all good things must come to an end, but at least the high-paced energy of The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers might fill the void. They're not new to the cartoon scene, but let's hope their stunts are as amazing as ever. MicrobeMania: "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" is a throwback! Those guys pull off some wild stunts. Kids WB seems to be aiming for high octane to take Gumball's place. Keeping my fingers crossed that they keep delivering fresh content, even in the form of older gems getting the spotlight again. RestInToons: Guess it's goodbye to Gumball and hello Adrenalini. I remember the brothers having quite the international flair. Their eclectic style should make for a refreshing change of pace. Plus, with Squish and the others, Kids WB's variety is still on point. AmoebaAmy: My kids loved Gumball, so they're a bit gutted. But I think The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers' daredevil acts might just win them over. I'm always down for more shenanigans. Here's hoping they get as much character-driven hilarity as Gumball had. ScienceRules45: Gumball's creativity was unmatched, but The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers? That's a nostalgia trip! Will be interesting to see how a show that's been off the radar for a while resonates with the current audience. HappyMom200: My Gumball marathon nights are coming to an end it seems. The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers have some big shoes to fill, but I'm ready for the laughs. In Kids WB we trust, right? Admin5: Change is part of every TV network's lifecycle. "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" could be what kids WB needs to shake things up. Let's give these fearless brothers a chance and reconvene here to discuss the stunts, humor, and how the show fits into the new dynamic!

Welcome Back Craig & Gumball + Code Lyoko Stays! GreenJelly223: It's fall premiere season, everyone! And with the leaves changing comes new changes to Kids WB. Code Lyoko has secured its spot on the schedule, which I know some of you are thrilled about. The Amazing World of Gumball and Craig of the Creek are making a short-lived comeback, dipping out again in January. Can't get enough of those two, so I'm here for any time they're on. CartoonAficionado: Great to have Gumball and Craig back, even if it's just for a quick hello and goodbye. It's like that favorite seasonal dish you can't stop craving. And Code Lyoko sticking around? Love that for us--those virtual vibes aren't going anywhere! TheComicNerd21: Ah, the temporary returns of Gumball and Craig are bittersweet. Makes you wish they'd just stick around full-time. But, I gotta say, Code Lyoko keeping its slot is A-okay with me. That's one show I've been seriously getting back into. ArtsyOwl: The quality storytelling in Craig of the Creek will be sorely missed once January rolls around. And Gumball--it just has that rewatchability factor like no other. Soak it up while you can, folks! MicrobeMania: Just dropping in to say that Skatoony is going to be back next summer, and I'm here for it! It's kind of become the unofficial summer tradition since 2018, hasn't it? Always great to see a show that knows how to fill its seasonal shoes. Bacteriophage_: Yeah, Skatoony's like that cool summer camp you get excited about all year. But let's not overlook the fall newcomers too--I'm already setting reminders for Ultimate Spider-Man and Batman: The Brave and the Bold. The superhero binge is real! RestInToons: Mixed feelings about the short-term return of Gumball and Craig of the Creek. At least we know Kids WB is good at giving us something to look forward to. As for Code Lyoko, it's been interesting to see a show from yesteryear find its groove with the audience today. AmoebaAmy: The limited time with Gumball and Craig is better than no time! Let's enjoy the laughs and adventures while they last. And happy to have confirmed scoops like the one about Skatoony return--it's this kind of knowledge that keeps the fandom ticking. ScienceRules45: I've gotten used to the shift and shuffle of Kids WB's schedule. You learn to appreciate what you've got when you've got it. That said, I'm diving headfirst into the nostalgia and newness of this fall's lineup. It's going to be an entertaining season! HappyMom200: I'm grateful for any sprinkles of Craig of the Creek episodes we get! It's such a gem. And does anyone else get way too competitive watching Skatoony, or is that just me? Super stoked about its return next year! Admin5: Some very astute observations and a tangible excitement for the new and returning shows this fall! Let's enjoy this season's offerings, and, as always, keep the conversations engaging as we head into the new year with all its sure-to-be-surprising programming and inevitable farewells.

GreenJelly223: Hey toon enthusiasts! As we hit the sunny stride of 2023, Kids WB is switching up the schedule. We're saying bye to Batman, Scooby, and Spidey. But don't despair--Ozzy & Drix, World of Quest, and the ever-reliable Skatoony are here for those summer vibes. Also, "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" are still doing the rerun rounds. Keeping it fresh and funky! CartoonAficionado: Honestly, it's cool to see Ozzy & Drix making a comeback. That show was always under the radar but it delivered some solid laughs plus a bit of body-function education. Let's see how it holds up today! TheComicNerd21: No more Batman and Spidey is a bummer, but you know what? Bring on the Ozzy & Drix and World of Quest! I remember World of Quest being pretty out there with its humor, a good mix of action and oddball characters--definitely fitting for the wacky tone of summer. MicrobeMania: Ozzy & Drix, that's a throwback! I had a feeling it could make a resurgence. Educational and entertaining--that's a tough balance to strike, but that show had it. Also, cheers to year 5 of summer Skatoony--it's tradition at this point! ArtsyOwl: Hey, "Gloopy and Glitter" are still in the reruns, too! Shimmering on--quite literally, thanks to Glitter. It's a quirky and cute show, glad it's still around for the little ones to enjoy. Bacteriophage_: Seeing World of Quest drop into the lineup makes me hopeful that Kids WB is dedicated to keeping variety alive. Adventure, humor, outright weirdness--it's got it all. And combined with the educational fun from Ozzy & Drix, plus the game show laughs from Skatoony? Count me in for the summer! RestInToons: Sayonara superheroes! This season's lineup shows that kids' programming isn't just about capes and villains. It's about variety, surprise, and a touch of nostalgia. Let's get microscopic with Ozzy & Drix and go on a wild ride with Quest and Nestor! AmoebaAmy: Always a tad sad to see the Scooby gang go, but switching up genres keeps things interesting. Ozzy & Drix is kind of like "The Magic School Bus" for the older crowd, and I'm here for it! Plus, Skatoony is something my kids look forward to every year--glad it's not going anywhere! ScienceRules45: I've got to say, I appreciate how Kids WB keeps mixing in educational content amidst all the comedy and action. Ozzy & Drix is a blast from the past that I'm excited to revisit. It's just what we need in a world that could use a refresher on health and the human body! HappyMom200: World of Quest is an underrated treasure, and I'm thrilled it's coming back into the spotlight. It's like that fun summer book series but animated. And Skatoony is practically synonymous with summer now; glad to know some things stay solid. Admin5: The summer outlook is looking diverse and delightful! With shows that cater to every kind of young fan, there's no shortage of entertainment. Let's keep track of these changes and see how they fare in the warm months ahead. Enjoy your summer watching, and stay tuned for updates on what's next!

January 27 2024 Should have seen this coming the day TAWOG and COTC left for good, but Kids WB died on December 30, We now have the CW4Kids, owned by 4Kids Entertainment, and the first schedule change has happened, Squish and The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers have been replaced with Pokemon: Indigo League and Sonic X respectively, The block still has the Kids WB aesthetic, but I expect that to be gone by Easter, Also, another schedule change is coming in a few months, Teen Titans Go, Scooby Doo Mystery Inc and Batman the Brave and the Bold are being replaced with GoGoRiki (Smeshariki), Ultimate Muscle and Kirby: Right Back At Ya in 2 weeks, The remaining KWB shows as of now are Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, Code Lyoko, Ultimate Spider Man (and in 2 weeks, Gloopy and Glitter). The way they went about this was interesting, In December they started airing promos saying that from January 7 the network would be changing it's name, it didn't tell us that 4Kids are now in charge or that there would be new shows, the promo just showed the usual KWB shows like Squish, TAAB, TTG, XS, etc. Also today the promo for the next schedule change (dubbed a Super Duper Late Winter Lineup) has a new slogan "You're signed on to the CW4Kids" Slow and painful rebrand? , If you're not gonna change the bumpers untill Easter then why reveal your flashy new slogan now. Also the website (thecw4kids.com) STILL says this at the footer "(c) 2024 Warner Bros Discovery, Paramount Global, Nexstar Media Group" Hopefully it is updated to reflect 4Kids's involvement soon. Write a follow up forum convo where they talk more about the slow transition, and that GoGoRiki is cute, and that it could be primed to take over most of the current comedy cartoons Thread Title: CW4Kids: A Slow Transition & The Future of Cartoons on the Block? ToonMasterJay: So, has anyone else noticed how the CW4Kids transition is kinda like watching paint dry? The bumpers feel like Kids WB is haunting us. And they're dropping their new slogan already, but the website footer is still all about the old guard... Mixed signals much? DigitalToonFan: Yeah, the transition is definitely dragging its feet. I mean, if you're going to bring in 4Kids, then do it with a bang! Not this half-Zoom half-real-life meeting vibe. The new lineup switches could be cool though, but I'll miss Squish and The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers for sure. GoGoFan223: Honestly, I'm most excited about GoGoRiki (or Smeshariki for the purists). It's cute and has that potential to be big with the comedy crowd. Less about the action and more laughs--could be the perfect fit for the new direction they're aiming for. SonicXforever: Still processing the swap of Squish for Pokemon and TAAB for Sonic X... I mean, sure, classics! But Sonic X has been rerun how many times now? I guess they're banking on that nostalgia factor to reel us in while they're redecorating. PokeNostalgia101: Not going to lie, I'm excited to have Pokemon Indigo League back--it's like comfort food for my soul. But I hear you all, the change is weirdly slow. I get that it's a big shift from Kids WB to full-on 4Kids ownership, yet you'd think they'd want to make their mark quick. LyokoLover: Low-key glad Code Lyoko and Xiaolin Showdown are sticking around. They've got that unique appeal that isn't easy to replace. But curious how long till that changes with this new "Super Duper Late Winter Lineup." If they're ushering out TTG and Scooby, who's next? Animanga4Life: Ultimate Muscle and Kirby: Right Back At Ya coming to the block brings back fond Saturday morning memories! Although, I do get why some are skeptical; a lot of these shows have seen multiple reruns over the years. WebWader: I keep checking the website hoping it's been updated... No dice. The weird blend of old and new branding isn't helping anyone. At least update the footer to show 4Kids is steering the ship now. How hard can it be? ComicStripKid: The lineup change feels like a balance between targeting the parents who grew up with these shows and trying to appeal to the new gen of cartoon fans. GoGoRiki's charm and simplicity could be their ticket into the latter's hearts. I see a mascot in the making. ToonTalker91: Not thrilled about the slow pace here. It's like we're stuck in Kids WB limbo. I miss the days when a rebrand meant a fresh start, not this lingering goodbye. Curious how Gloopy and Glitter will fare with the rest of the changes looming... Will they be the last ones standing? Admin_4KidsRevamp: Please bear with us during this transition. We're working hard to bring a fresh and exciting lineup while honoring the legacy of what came before. Believe us, it'll be worth the wait! Stay tuned for more updates and enjoy the shows in the meantime. Thread Closed by Admin_4KidsRevamp Write a follow up in mid Feb where the Feb lineup is here, 5 4Kids shows (Pokemon, Sonic, Ultimate Muscle, Kirby and GoGoRiki) and 5 Kids WB shows (Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, Ultimate Spider Man, Gloopy and Glitter and Code Lyoko) Also, the website now has an account and points system, games, and has updated the footer to "(c) 2024 4Kids Entertainment", Website otherwise remains the same, and still has show pages for removed shows, but this will slowly change in the coming weeks Thread Title: CW4Kids Mid-Feb Lineup is Live! Balance of Old and New + Website Updates DigitalToonFan: The balance has been struck, folks! Five 4Kids classics--Pokemon, Sonic, Ultimate Muscle, Kirby, and GoGoRiki--and five Kids WB staples--Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, Ultimate Spider Man, Gloopy and Glitter, and Code Lyoko. It's a mix of eras in one block! ToonMasterJay: Checked out the CW4Kids website, they finally ditched the old footer. It's official, this ship is sailing under the 4Kids flag now. Nice to see they're stepping up their game with accounts and points, plus some games to boot! Animanga4Life: 4Kids moving in with accounts and points? Sounds like they're setting up a cool rewards system. And that might just get more kids invested in the website beyond streaming shows--a savvy move. GoGoFan223: GoGoRiki getting prime time with the big 4Kids dogs is great news. Its cute factor is off the charts. Could be the one to round out the new vibe CW4Kids is going for if they play their cards right. SonicXforever: Glad to see Sonic racing into the lineup. It's about time he got back into the limelight. Now to see how he fares among the newer offerings. Talk about a speed battle! PokeNostalgia101: Pokemon getting its rightful place has me all fired up! But it's kinda odd to still see show pages for the ousted shows on the website. Anyone else notice that? Hopefully, they'll clear that up soon. LyokoLover: The fact that Code Lyoko is sticking around amidst all the changes shows its resilience. Maybe 4Kids recognizes the gold they have with some of these Kids WB shows. The perfect yin to their yang. ComicStripKid: Well, can't say 4Kids isn't taking a balanced approach to this transition. Keeping half the lineup from Kids WB seems like a strategic way to ensure they don't lose the existing audience while they woo new viewers with nostalgia and updated features. WebWader: The website is getting there, slowly but surely. With account functionality and games, it looks like 4Kids is channeling some vintage interactivity magic. Here's to mission: engage the digitally-savvy generation! ToonTalker91: Seeing "(c) 2024 4Kids Entertainment" at the bottom of the website gives me mixed emotions--it's good to see they're updating stuff, but the nostalgia for Kids WB is real. Any bets on how long Gloopy and Glitter can hold out? Admin_4KidsRevamp: Thanks for sticking with us through the changes! We're excited about the new lineup and website features, and this is just the beginning. As for the site, we're rolling out updates over the next few weeks to ensure the best experience for all our visitors. Thread Closed by Admin_4KidsRevamp Write a follow up where a new look with a digital online video style is coming to the block mid April, Also the slogan shown in the Feb promo is official, Also, 3 of the KWB shows are going, with CL and G&G staying, Also, Chaotic, TMNT: Back to the Sewer and Viva Pinata are joining the lineup, this also happens from mid April, Pokemon is also being swapped for Pokemon Horizons: The Series Thread Title: CW4Kids New Digital Look & Lineup Shuffle - Mid-April Madness Incoming! ToonMasterJay: Mid-April's gonna hit us with a serious 1-2 punch, folks! We're diving into a digital online video style aesthetic, making the "You're signed on to the CW4Kids" slogan legit. Plus, line-up's getting shaken up again--big time! DigitalToonFan: Heard the scoop that Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, and Ultimate Spider Man are waving goodbye. But we're keeping the virtual adventures of Code Lyoko and the quirky "Gloopy and Glitter"--two survivors of the cull. Animanga4Life: For the manga/anime fans, Pokemon Horizons: The Series is swooping in to replace the original Pokemon series! Exciting to see some new journeys and battles. Gotta love the continuous evolution of the Pokemon franchise on the CW4Kids. GoGoFan223: And what about that triple threat joining the fray? Chaotic, TMNT: Back to the Sewer, and Viva Pinata are about to spice things up! Feels like 4Kids is tossing in as many flavors as they can to see what sticks. SonicXforever: Greatest thing about CW4Kids right now? They're not afraid to mix it up. The digital look update has me hyped--it's like the block is leveling up. Hopefully, it adds a fresh vibe that resonates with the digital generation. PokeNostalgia101: Pokemon Horizons: The Series will def pull in the crowd looking for that cutting-edge anime action. Pokemon always knows how to keep things fresh. LyokoLover: Sad to see some old friends go, but Code Lyoko holding strong gives me hope. It's like our own little slice of stability in this whirlwind of changes. ComicStripKid: With the digital online style coming, CW4Kids is clearly gunning for a certain look and feel. Let's just cross our fingers it blends seamlessly with the cartoon essence we all tune in for. WebWader: Do you think bringing in Chaotic, TMNT, and Viva Pinata is going too far back into the vault? I'm all for nostalgia, but I hope they still invest in newer properties or original content. Balance is key. Write a forum convo in early December saying Kids WB ison March 3 where it looks like 3 shows are being "vaulted" on December 30, CW4Kids will initially have the same scheduleprimed as part of the transitional periodflagships, also there are rumours of Redakai coming in the fall
CHATBOT: Thread Title: CW4Kids Flagships Taking Shape? + Redakai Rumors for Fall ToonMasterJay: Have you guys noticed how Chaotic, Pokemon Horizons: The Series, and Gloopy and Glitter seem to be getting the flagship treatment by CW4Kids? Their promos are EVERYWHERE on the block, and social media is buzzing! DigitalToonFan: Totally picking up what you're putting down, TMJ. It feels like CW4Kids is pushing these three hard. Chaotic's deep strategy plus Pokemon's never-die appeal and Gloopy & Glitter's unique charm could make for a strong backbone. Animanga4Life: Chaotic and Pokemon are no-brainers. They pull in viewers like magnets. And Gloopy and Glitter has this infectious appeal--that light-hearted, whimsical vibe may be exactly what CW4Kids needs to balance out the action-heavy hitters. GoGoFan223: Speaking of future plans, is anyone else hearing these whispers about Redakai coming to the lineup this fall? Could add an interesting mix to the flagships if true. Seems like CW4Kids is doubling down on action-packed, game-centric shows. SonicXforever: I'm here for the variety. Chaotic, Pokemon, and even Gloopy and Glitter bring such different perspectives to the table. It's refreshing. About Redakai, it's an intriguing possibility--might even revitalize interest in the battling genre post-Pokemon. PokeNostalgia101: Redakai rumor has me intrigued. If they're pushing it as the next big thing, alongside their current flagships, CW4Kids might just establish itself as the go-to for adventure and combat-themed animations. LyokoLover: Amid the reshuffles and new introductions, Code Lyoko remains my rock. But watching Chaotic and Pokemon take on flagship roles has been interesting. They're certainly drawing crowds. Also curious how Redakai might fit into this mix come fall. ComicStripKid: There's strategy in positioning Chaotic, Pokemon Horizons, and Gloopy and Glitter as flagships--they've got broad appeal. If Redakai brings its A-game, we might see a resurgence similar to when Yu-Gi-Oh! first hit the airwaves. WebWader: CW4Kids seems to be aiming to capture a diverse audience with their flagship choices. As for Redakai, adding another strategy-combat show could either saturate the market or dominate it. Time will tell. ToonTalker91: Gloopy and Glitter standing shoulder to shoulder with giants like Pokemon is the kind of energy I'm here for! Shows CW4Kids is not just about action and adventure but also charm and quirk. And heck, I'm all for checking out Redakai if the rumo...
CHATBOT: Thread Title: Kids WB Final Day Tribute & The Transition to CW4Kids GreenJelly223: Can't believe today marks the end of an era. Kids WB has been such a huge part of our weekends for so long. Saw those "happy new year from the CW" promos and the "Next Saturday, Kids WB becomes the CW4Kids" ads. Feels surreal. They're sticking with the current lineup for now, though. ToonMasterJay: Yeah, it's bitter-sweet. Kids WB has been the go-to for so many awesome shows over the years. Watching those promos, it seems like they're trying to smooth the transition to CW4Kids. Makes sense to keep the lineup as is to start with, to ease us all into the new brand without shaking things up too much. PixelPals: It's smart, really. A gradual transition might help keep the initial audience intact while they work out the bigger changes behind the scenes. I read somewhere that 4Kids isn't fully taking the reins until later, so this name change is like the first step to prepare us. RetroToonFan: I saw that too, @PixelPals. Keeping the schedule the same for now is a strategic move. Even though it's technically CW4Kids starting next week, it sounds like the heart of Kids WB won't be gone just yet. Guess they're banking on us sticking around through the rebrand. AnimeAdmirer: Honestly, those promos hit me right in the feels. "Happy new year from the CW" - as if they're assuring us they've got exciting plans for the future. I'm cautiously optimistic about what CW4Kids will bring to the table. As long as they keep some of our beloved shows and maybe introduce us to some cool new ones, it'll be good. DigitalDoodler: It's still weird to think about, though. Kids WB had such a distinctive vibe. The ads featuring the existing lineup almost make it seem like nothing's changing...but knowing it's officially becoming CW4Kids is kind of like waiting for the other shoe to drop. Curious to see how long it takes before we start seeing major shifts. ToonTalker91: True, @DigitalDoodler. It's almost as if we're in limbo - not quite Kids WB anymore but not fully CW4Kids either. The name change feels like the first small step, with the real transformation still on the horizon. It'll be interesting to follow how and when more definitive changes come into play. ComicStripKid: Part of me appreciates the gentle transition. A hard cutoff might've felt more jarring. The promos do a good job of setting a hopeful tone for CW4Kids, kind of like "we're still here, just under a new name". Gonna miss the Kids WB ...

USER: Thread Title: Squish Cartoon Coming to Kids WB! Mid-Season Madness GreenJelly223: Hey Squish fans! Did you guys hear the news? There's a Squish cartoon in the works and it's hitting Kids WB's mid-season lineup! Can't wait to see our favorite amoeba make the jump from page to screen! MicrobeMania: No way, this is awesome! Squish has been one of my favorite graphic novel series for my kids. They're going to freak out! Have they announced who's behind the animation or any voice actors yet? AmoebaAmy: OMG, this made my day! I stumbled onto the news on Twitter but wasn't sure if it was real. I just hope they keep the charm of the comics. The sense of humor in Squish is just right for a cartoon! ScienceRules45: @MicrobeMania I read that the team behind some of the recent popular cartoons is on board for this. As for voice actors, nothing's announced yet. I'm crossing my fingers they get some quality talent. Hoping for some great chemistry between Squish, Pod, and Peggy. TheComicNerd21: True, voice acting can make or break a cartoon adaptation. I'm a bit skeptical, tbh. Sometimes these transitions lose the spirit of the original material. But I'll reserve judgment until we get a trailer or something. ArtsyOwl: Has anyone heard about the art style yet? The simplistic yet expressive style of the books is super charming. Kids WB tends to go for flashier animation, though I hope they keep it close to the spirit of the Squish comics. HappyMom200: I just hope they tackle the educational aspects well. My kids learned so much about microorganisms from these books while laughing their heads off. It'll be great for them to watch Squish's adventures! BioGeek: Yes! Education through entertainment is the best. I mean, who knew an amoeba could make science this fun? And considering we've all become amateur virologists lately (thanks, 2020), the timing couldn't be better. GreenJelly223: For sure, @BioGeek. They have a chance here to really create something that's as informational as it is entertaining. I also love how the books touch on themes of friendship and acceptance. If they keep that intact, it's going to be a hit. MicrobeMania: Anybody have any insider scoop on when we might be getting a peek at the animation or the voice cast? I'm super eager to see anything at this point! Bacteriophage_: Rumors say a teaser might drop sometime in the spring. Keep your eyes peeled and your streaming devices ready! AmoebaAmy: Well, here's hoping Kids WB keeps the slime rolling! Can't wait to see our little squishy buddy in action. Let's keep this thread updated with any new info! Admin5: This thread has been locked due to its inactivity over 30 days. Please feel free to open a new one if you have more news or want to continue the discussion about the upcoming Squish cartoon. Write a follow up where the premiere is in mid March, Also, Apple and Onion is being replaced by the return of reruns of Xiaolin Showdown, also TTG, Gumball and Johnny Test are still the flagships, Also The Tom and Jerry Show is over, and will be replaced by Steven Universe reruns in May Thread Title: Squish Premiere Date and Schedule Changes on Kids WB! Bacteriophage_: Hey everyone, big news! The Squish cartoon is set to premiere in mid-March! Clear your calendars and get ready for some amoeba action! Who's excited? CartoonAficionado: Finally, some concrete dates! I've been keeping an eye out since our last thread went quiet. Mid-March is sooner than I expected. Also heard about some schedule shake-ups. Looks like Apple and Onion is getting shelved for the Xiaolin Showdown reruns. Not sure how I feel about that one. AmoebaAmy: Squish is starting soon?! That's awesome! I'm totally having a viewing party with my kids. But wow, Apple and Onion out for Xiaolin Showdown...nostalgia trip, anyone? I did love that show, but it's a bit of a genre leap from Apple and Onion. RestInToons: RIP The Tom and Jerry Show. Kinda saw that ending coming. And to be replaced by Steven Universe reruns in May? I need new cartoons, not just rewinds. But Steven Universe is still a gem, at least. MicrobeMania: No more Tom and Jerry? That's the end of an era. Though, to be fair, SU reruns are solid. It's not every day you get a show that tackles heavy themes with magical aliens. Still, can't help but hope we get some fresh blood in the lineup eventually. ScienceRules45: True, new content is key, but at least we have Squish! And with TTG, Gumball, and Johnny Test holding the fort as flagships, I think Kids WB has a pretty balanced mix. Squish might just be the breath of fresh air we need right now. GreenJelly223: So, mid-March for Squish, that's great! Does anyone know if that's going to affect TTG, Gumball, or Johnny Test air times? I know they're the heavy hitters, just hoping Squish gets a good slot that doesn't clash. TheComicNerd21: Haven't seen anything about time changes for the flagships. I reckon Squish will find its place without much issue. Kids WB tends to do well with scheduling around their mainstays. And let's face it--TTG is practically unmovable at this point. HappyMom200: My kids will be over the moon with the return of Xiaolin Showdown. I loved it as a kid, too. It's going to be a mix of new and old at our house with Squish and the reruns. I think Kids WB might just pull off this balance. Still, hoping those reruns are just placeholders for future original content. ArtsyOwl: I'm just happy Squish is making its debut! Sure, schedule changes are always a bit of a rollercoaster, but that's the nature of TV, right? Out with the old, in with the new... and sometimes back in with the old! Admin5: Friendly reminder to keep industry rumor discussions civil. Looking forward to seeing how Squish is received by the community here! Let's revisit this thread after the premiere to share our thoughts. And, as always, stay tuned for any further schedule updates from Kids WB. Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up during the summer, The summer lineup has TTG, Gumball, Steven Universe, Xiaolin Showdown, Johnny Test, Squish, Skatoony, Scooby Doo and Guess Who, Looney Tunes Cartoons and Craig of the Creek, Also, new episodes of Ben 10, Looney Tunes Cartoons, Teen Titans Go, Craig of the Creek and Johnny Test return in September Thread Title: Kids WB Summer Lineup + Fall New Episodes Info! GreenJelly223: Summer's heating up, folks, and so is Kids WB's lineup! We're looking at TTG, Gumball, Steven Universe, and Xiaolin Showdown reruns. Plus, Squish, Skatoony, Scooby Doo and Guess Who, Looney Tunes Cartoons, and Craig of the Creek are all part of the mix. How's everyone feeling about the current programming? CartoonAficionado: Honestly, it's a bit of a mixed bag, but I'm not complaining! New fans are getting a taste of some classic toons with Xiaolin Showdown, and Squish has been a pleasant surprise--really nailing it. Plus, Craig of the Creek is always solid. It's like a buffet of different cartoon flavors this summer. Bacteriophage_: And don't forget what's coming in the fall - new episodes of Ben 10, Looney Tunes Cartoons, Teen Titans Go, Craig of the Creek, and Johnny Test. September can't come soon enough! AmoebaAmy: Squish has been an absolute delight! My kids adore it, and it's turning into our little summer tradition to watch together. As much as I love TTG and Gumball, it's Squish that has us tuning in with the most excitement. TheComicNerd21: A heads-up for all the true toon fans out there: new episodes for some of these shows are usually a blast. I've got high hopes for the fall, especially for Craig of the Creek--they've been consistently knocking it out of the park. ScienceRules45: I'm just glad we have such variety. Keeps the channel interesting. Summer is always tricky with kids home all day, but this lineup has something for everybody. ArtsyOwl: Agreed on the variety. The blend of classic and contemporary shows has me responding like I'm five and thirteen all at once. By the way, the art in the latest season of Looney Tunes Cartoons has been stellar. Can't wait to see what they do next. MicrobeMania: I am surprised how well Skatoony holds up. It's not everyone's cup of tea, but the quizzing with cartoons is unique. And with Scooby Doo and Guess Who featured, it feels like we've got a bit of a detective theme going on. Or is it just me? RestInToons: September seems pretty far, but I got a feeling that new Teen Titans Go and Johnny Test episodes will make some serious waves. Ben 10, too, has been gearing up for something big, at least that's the vibe. HappyMom200: It's a stable lineup for sure. Steven Universe reruns are still a hit in my house. Plus, I appreciate the educational value in shows like Squish. Keeps the kids learning even out of school--parents' summer dream! Admin5: Great to see such positivity about the lineup! As always, discuss your favorite shows, but please remember no spoilers for unaired episodes. Let's reconvene in this thread when the new episodes drop in September to share our thoughts and reviews! Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up where Robotboy is added to the schedule the next year in May 2022 when Summer begins, B10, LTC and SU are leaving, Robotboy, Skatoony and Chop Socky Chooks are taking their place, Also in the fall, we have a few new shows, Ultimate Spider-Man, Batman: The Brave and the bold and Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated, Also a new acquired comedy cartoon about 2 blobs Thread Title: Kids WB Schedule Shakeup - Hello Robotboy, So Long Ben 10 & Others! GreenJelly223: Hold onto your remotes, toon fans! Coming up next in May 2022, just as summer kicks off, Kids WB is adding Robotboy to the lineup. It's a nostalgia hit for sure but sad to see some good ones like Ben 10, Looney Tunes Cartoons, and Steven Universe leave us. Thoughts? TheComicNerd21: Man, Robotboy brings me back. Haven't seen that little guy in AGES. Sad to see Ben 10 go; it was always a solid watch. But, this is the life of a cartoon fan, right? Out with the old, in with the... older? Bacteriophage_: Robotboy's return is quite a surprise. It had that classic boy-and-his-robot vibe. Also, Skatoony and Chop Socky Chooks? That's quite the throwback. For those who don't remember, Chop Socky Chooks was this wild mix of kung fu and chickens--only in cartoons, folks! CartoonAficionado: Don't forget about the fall bonanza! Kids WB is loading up with some heavy hitters--Ultimate Spider-Man, Batman: The Brave and the Bold, and Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated. Plus, that new comedy about two blobs? Can't find much on it, but new content is always exciting! AmoebaAmy: Wait, so we're swapping out some superhero action with... different superhero action, and we're keeping the mystery with Scooby-Doo. And do I smell a strong comedy theme building up with the two blob cartoon? RestInToons: Totally digging the superhero update with Ultimate Spider-Man and Batman: The Brave and the Bold. They bring that comic book essence to the screen. And another comedy about blobs? Guess this one's the era of the blob, huh? ArtsyOwl: As much as I'll miss Steven Universe for its depth and progressivism, I guess I'm ready for something light-hearted. Robotboy and the blob comedy might just be the palate cleanser we need. Here's hoping they deliver some good laughs! MicrobeMania: Definitely a bummer about Ben 10 and SU. Those shows had such depth in storytelling and character development. But Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated is not to be slept on. That iteration has some of the best arcs for our mystery-solving gang! ScienceRules45: Batman: The Brave and the Bold was a gem! It didn't take itself too seriously and had just the right amount of camp. And with Ultimate Spider-Man, looks like we'll still be getting our fix of animated superhero action. HappyMom200: Love the move to Batman and Spider-Man. My kid has been on a real superhero kick, and Scooby-Doo never gets old. At least, not in my household. The blob comedy sounds intriguing--Kids WB isn't afraid to experiment, that's for sure! Admin5: With these cartoon cycles, it's always sad to see some shows go but equally exciting to welcome new titles and welcome back some classics like Robotboy. Remember, fall is just around the corner, so let's keep the conversation going when those new shows hit the screen. Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up where the blob cartoon is revealed to (be one I made up, hopefully I make it as a YouTube series) be named "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" Gloopy is a normal slime blob wheras Glitter lives up to her name as a sparkling one, Also, a mid season show Code Lyoko is premiering just as COTC knocks off for Summer, Also promos for CSC are already airing Thread Title: Revealed: "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" Joins Kids WB + Code Lyoko Mid-Season Premiere! CartoonAficionado: Alright, the mystery's solved! The new blob comedy coming to Kids WB is "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter". Gloopy is your average slime blob, and Glitter is, well, super sparkly! Could be a hit if it's done well. Fingers crossed it's as fun as the name suggests. GreenJelly223: "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter," huh? That's quite the name! I'm all for original content--bringing in some fresh 'slime' to the game. Kudos to the creator, especially if they started on YouTube. That's one giant leap for slime-kind. TheComicNerd21: Between Gloopy and Glitter, I'm expecting some madcap hijinks and, hopefully, some good chemistry. Pun totally intended! It's neat seeing creators move from YouTube to big networks. What a time to be alive! Bacteriophage_: Just saw the promo for Chop Socky Chooks! Honestly, I'd forgotten about that show, but the nostalgia hit me hard. Kids WB really knows how to draw in the old school fans alongside the new ones. AmoebaAmy: Excited to see what "Gloopy and Glitter" brings to the table! It's always refreshing to see new characters and stories. Also, did anyone catch that Code Lyoko is coming back as a mid-season show? That's unexpected! I remember watching that show as a kid--the blend of 2D and 3D animation was so cool. RestInToons: Code Lyoko? No way! That show was my virtual escape. With Craig of the Creek taking a summer break, Code Lyoko has some big shoes to fill. I'm cautiously optimistic. Also, kudos to the person behind "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter". This is indie creators' dream! ArtsyOwl: Craig of the Creek is my comfort show, so knowing it's taking a break has me in my feels. But Code Lyoko might just be the perfect summer binge to replace it. That show was ahead of its time with its virtual world storyline. MicrobeMania: With Chop Socky Chooks, Code Lyoko, and now "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter," I'm sensing a theme of whimsy and adventure. Perfect for a carefree summer! It's gonna be a wild ride on Kids WB. ScienceRules45: Indeed, summer is shaping up to be full of adventure and laughs! I'm curious to see the comedic dynamics between Gloopy and Glitter and how they'll fit into the current lineup. Code Lyoko is an excellent addition for anyone who's into that sci-fi, virtual reality vibe. HappyMom200: Just peeped the promo for Gloopy and Glitter with the kids. They're already quoting lines and chuckling. Also, major props to Kids WB for the diversity in its programming--you've got old hits, modern takes, and now a homegrown web series making it to the big leagues. Admin5: The summer is looking quite adventurous with all the fresh and returning programming we have on our hands! If "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" or Code Lyoko capture your hearts, be sure to come back and let everyone know. Enjoy the shows, everyone, and let's support those indie creators making waves! Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up where another mid-season show premieres, replacing Gumball, The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers Thread Title: Mid-Season Update: The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers Replace Gumball on Kids WB! TheComicNerd21: Big news for Kids WB watchers! "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" is premiering mid-season, taking the spot "The Amazing World of Gumball" left behind. I've got high hopes that these thrill-seeking siblings will bring the same level of zany to the lineup. Can they live up to the hilarity of Gumball, though? That's the big question. GreenJelly223: Gumball's out?! Say it isn't so! That show was a staple! But I remember The Adrenalini Brothers from awhile back...they were full of over-the-top stunts and accents. Hopefully, they can fill the quirky cartoon void that's gonna be left in Gumball's wake. CartoonAficionado: "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" are pure comedic gold with those daredevil antics. Gumball set a high bar for humor and heart, but if you want outrageous adventures and laughs, the Adrenalinis could be just the ticket. ArtsyOwl: I admit, I'll miss the random humor and clever writing of Gumball. It was one of those shows that had something for viewers of all ages. The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers have a different flavor, but I'm definitely willing to give them a shot. Bacteriophage_: Well folks, all good things must come to an end, but at least the high-paced energy of The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers might fill the void. They're not new to the cartoon scene, but let's hope their stunts are as amazing as ever. MicrobeMania: "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" is a throwback! Those guys pull off some wild stunts. Kids WB seems to be aiming for high octane to take Gumball's place. Keeping my fingers crossed that they keep delivering fresh content, even in the form of older gems getting the spotlight again. RestInToons: Guess it's goodbye to Gumball and hello Adrenalini. I remember the brothers having quite the international flair. Their eclectic style should make for a refreshing change of pace. Plus, with Squish and the others, Kids WB's variety is still on point. AmoebaAmy: My kids loved Gumball, so they're a bit gutted. But I think The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers' daredevil acts might just win them over. I'm always down for more shenanigans. Here's hoping they get as much character-driven hilarity as Gumball had. ScienceRules45: Gumball's creativity was unmatched, but The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers? That's a nostalgia trip! Will be interesting to see how a show that's been off the radar for a while resonates with the current audience. HappyMom200: My Gumball marathon nights are coming to an end it seems. The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers have some big shoes to fill, but I'm ready for the laughs. In Kids WB we trust, right? Admin5: Change is part of every TV network's lifecycle. "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" could be what kids WB needs to shake things up. Let's give these fearless brothers a chance and reconvene here to discuss the stunts, humor, and how the show fits into the new dynamic! Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up in fall when the new shows premiere, Lyoko is sticking around, Gumball and Craig are back, but won't be for long, leaving again in January, Also, a user says Skatoony will definitely be back next year, as it has been a summer replacement show since 2018 Thread Title: Fall Premieres are Here! Welcome Back Craig & Gumball + Code Lyoko Stays! GreenJelly223: It's fall premiere season, everyone! And with the leaves changing comes new changes to Kids WB. Code Lyoko has secured its spot on the schedule, which I know some of you are thrilled about. The Amazing World of Gumball and Craig of the Creek are making a short-lived comeback, dipping out again in January. Can't get enough of those two, so I'm here for any time they're on. CartoonAficionado: Great to have Gumball and Craig back, even if it's just for a quick hello and goodbye. It's like that favorite seasonal dish you can't stop craving. And Code Lyoko sticking around? Love that for us--those virtual vibes aren't going anywhere! TheComicNerd21: Ah, the temporary returns of Gumball and Craig are bittersweet. Makes you wish they'd just stick around full-time. But, I gotta say, Code Lyoko keeping its slot is A-okay with me. That's one show I've been seriously getting back into. ArtsyOwl: The quality storytelling in Craig of the Creek will be sorely missed once January rolls around. And Gumball--it just has that rewatchability factor like no other. Soak it up while you can, folks! MicrobeMania: Just dropping in to say that Skatoony is going to be back next summer, and I'm here for it! It's kind of become the unofficial summer tradition since 2018, hasn't it? Always great to see a show that knows how to fill its seasonal shoes. Bacteriophage_: Yeah, Skatoony's like that cool summer camp you get excited about all year. But let's not overlook the fall newcomers too--I'm already setting reminders for Ultimate Spider-Man and Batman: The Brave and the Bold. The superhero binge is real! RestInToons: Mixed feelings about the short-term return of Gumball and Craig of the Creek. At least we know Kids WB is good at giving us something to look forward to. As for Code Lyoko, it's been interesting to see a show from yesteryear find its groove with the audience today. AmoebaAmy: The limited time with Gumball and Craig is better than no time! Let's enjoy the laughs and adventures while they last. And happy to have confirmed scoops like the one about Skatoony return--it's this kind of knowledge that keeps the fandom ticking. ScienceRules45: I've gotten used to the shift and shuffle of Kids WB's schedule. You learn to appreciate what you've got when you've got it. That said, I'm diving headfirst into the nostalgia and newness of this fall's lineup. It's going to be an entertaining season! HappyMom200: I'm grateful for any sprinkles of Craig of the Creek episodes we get! It's such a gem. And does anyone else get way too competitive watching Skatoony, or is that just me? Super stoked about its return next year! Admin5: Some very astute observations and a tangible excitement for the new and returning shows this fall! Let's enjoy this season's offerings, and, as always, keep the conversations engaging as we head into the new year with all its sure-to-be-surprising programming and inevitable farewells. Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up in 2023 where G&G are still rerunning, but Batman, Scooby and Spidey are off, replaced with Ozzy and Drix, World of Quest and Skatoony for summer Thread Title: 2023 Kids WB Update: Ozzy & Drix, World of Quest & Skatoony Take Over Summer! GreenJelly223: Hey toon enthusiasts! As we hit the sunny stride of 2023, Kids WB is switching up the schedule. We're saying bye to Batman, Scooby, and Spidey. But don't despair--Ozzy & Drix, World of Quest, and the ever-reliable Skatoony are here for those summer vibes. Also, "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" are still doing the rerun rounds. Keeping it fresh and funky! CartoonAficionado: Honestly, it's cool to see Ozzy & Drix making a comeback. That show was always under the radar but it delivered some solid laughs plus a bit of body-function education. Let's see how it holds up today! TheComicNerd21: No more Batman and Spidey is a bummer, but you know what? Bring on the Ozzy & Drix and World of Quest! I remember World of Quest being pretty out there with its humor, a good mix of action and oddball characters--definitely fitting for the wacky tone of summer. MicrobeMania: Ozzy & Drix, that's a throwback! I had a feeling it could make a resurgence. Educational and entertaining--that's a tough balance to strike, but that show had it. Also, cheers to year 5 of summer Skatoony--it's tradition at this point! ArtsyOwl: Hey, "Gloopy and Glitter" are still in the reruns, too! Shimmering on--quite literally, thanks to Glitter. It's a quirky and cute show, glad it's still around for the little ones to enjoy. Bacteriophage_: Seeing World of Quest drop into the lineup makes me hopeful that Kids WB is dedicated to keeping variety alive. Adventure, humor, outright weirdness--it's got it all. And combined with the educational fun from Ozzy & Drix, plus the game show laughs from Skatoony? Count me in for the summer! RestInToons: Sayonara superheroes! This season's lineup shows that kids' programming isn't just about capes and villains. It's about variety, surprise, and a touch of nostalgia. Let's get microscopic with Ozzy & Drix and go on a wild ride with Quest and Nestor! AmoebaAmy: Always a tad sad to see the Scooby gang go, but switching up genres keeps things interesting. Ozzy & Drix is kind of like "The Magic School Bus" for the older crowd, and I'm here for it! Plus, Skatoony is something my kids look forward to every year--glad it's not going anywhere! ScienceRules45: I've got to say, I appreciate how Kids WB keeps mixing in educational content amidst all the comedy and action. Ozzy & Drix is a blast from the past that I'm excited to revisit. It's just what we need in a world that could use a refresher on health and the human body! HappyMom200: World of Quest is an underrated treasure, and I'm thrilled it's coming back into the spotlight. It's like that fun summer book series but animated. And Skatoony is practically synonymous with summer now; glad to know some things stay solid. Admin5: The summer outlook is looking diverse and delightful! With shows that cater to every kind of young fan, there's no shortage of entertainment. Let's keep track of these changes and see how they fare in the warm months ahead. Enjoy your summer watching, and stay tuned for updates on what's next!

January 27 2024 Should have seen this coming the day TAWOG and COTC left for good, but Kids WB died on December 30, We now have the CW4Kids, owned by 4Kids Entertainment, and the first schedule change has happened, Squish and The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers have been replaced with Pokemon: Indigo League and Sonic X respectively, The block still has the Kids WB aesthetic, but I expect that to be gone by Easter, Also, another schedule change is coming in a few months, Teen Titans Go, Scooby Doo Mystery Inc and Batman the Brave and the Bold are being replaced with GoGoRiki (Smeshariki), Ultimate Muscle and Kirby: Right Back At Ya in 2 weeks, The remaining KWB shows as of now are Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, Code Lyoko, Ultimate Spider Man (and in 2 weeks, Gloopy and Glitter). The way they went about this was interesting, In December they started airing promos saying that from January 76 the network would be changing it's name, it didn't tell us that 4Kids are now in charge or that there would be new shows, the promo just showed the usual KWB shows like Squish, TAAB, TTG, XS, etc. Also today the promo for the next schedule change (dubbed a Super Duper Late Winter Lineup) has a new slogan "You're signed on to the CW4Kids" Slow and painful rebrand? , If you're not gonna change the bumpers untill Easter then why reveal your flashy new slogan now. Also the website (thecw4kids.com) STILL says this at the footer "(c) 2024 Warner Bros Discovery, Paramount Global, Nexstar Media Group" Hopefully it is updated to reflect 4Kids's involvement soon. Write a follow up forum convo where they talk more about the slow transition, and that GoGoRiki is cute, and that it could be primed to take over most of the current comedy cartoons Thread Title: CW4Kids: A Slow Transition & The Future of Cartoons on the Block? ToonMasterJay: So, has anyone else noticed how the CW4Kids transition is kinda like watching paint dry? The bumpers feel like Kids WB is haunting us. And they're dropping their new slogan already, but the website footer is still all about the old guard... Mixed signals much? DigitalToonFan: Yeah, the transition is definitely dragging its feet. I mean, if you're going to bring in 4Kids, then do it with a bang! Not this half-Zoom half-real-life meeting vibe. The new lineup switches could be cool though, but I'll miss Squish and The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers for sure. GoGoFan223: Honestly, I'm most excited about GoGoRiki (or Smeshariki for the purists). It's cute and has that potential to be big with the comedy crowd. Less about the action and more laughs--could be the perfect fit for the new direction they're aiming for. SonicXforever: Still processing the swap of Squish for Pokemon and TAAB for Sonic X... I mean, sure, classics! But Sonic X has been rerun how many times now? I guess they're banking on that nostalgia factor to reel us in while they're redecorating. PokeNostalgia101: Not going to lie, I'm excited to have Pokemon Indigo League back--it's like comfort food for my soul. But I hear you all, the change is weirdly slow. I get that it's a big shift from Kids WB to full-on 4Kids ownership, yet you'd think they'd want to make their mark quick. LyokoLover: Low-key glad Code Lyoko and Xiaolin Showdown are sticking around. They've got that unique appeal that isn't easy to replace. But curious how long till that changes with this new "Super Duper Late Winter Lineup." If they're ushering out TTG and Scooby, who's next? Animanga4Life: Ultimate Muscle and Kirby: Right Back At Ya coming to the block brings back fond Saturday morning memories! Although, I do get why some are skeptical; a lot of these shows have seen multiple reruns over the years. WebWader: I keep checking the website hoping it's been updated... No dice. The weird blend of old and new branding isn't helping anyone. At least update the footer to show 4Kids is steering the ship now. How hard can it be? ComicStripKid: The lineup change feels like a balance between targeting the parents who grew up with these shows and trying to appeal to the new gen of cartoon fans. GoGoRiki's charm and simplicity could be their ticket into the latter's hearts. I see a mascot in the making. ToonTalker91: Not thrilled about the slow pace here. It's like we're stuck in Kids WB limbo. I miss the days when a rebrand meant a fresh start, not this lingering goodbye. Curious how Gloopy and Glitter will fare with the rest of the changes looming... Will they be the last ones standing? Admin_4KidsRevamp: Please bear with us during this transition. We're working hard to bring a fresh and exciting lineup while honoring the legacy of what came before. Believe us, it'll be worth the wait! Stay tuned for more updates and enjoy the shows in the meantime. Thread Closed by Admin_4KidsRevamp Write a follow up in mid Feb where the Feb lineup is here, 5 4Kids shows (Pokemon, Sonic, Ultimate Muscle, Kirby and GoGoRiki) and 5 Kids WB shows (Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, Ultimate Spider Man, Gloopy and Glitter and Code Lyoko) Also, the website now has an account and points system, games, and has updated the footer to "(c) 2024 4Kids Entertainment", Website otherwise remains the same, and still has show pages for removed shows, but this will slowly change in the coming weeks Thread Title: CW4Kids Mid-Feb Lineup is Live! Balance of Old and New + Website Updates DigitalToonFan: The balance has been struck, folks! Five 4Kids classics--Pokemon, Sonic, Ultimate Muscle, Kirby, and GoGoRiki--and five Kids WB staples--Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, Ultimate Spider Man, Gloopy and Glitter, and Code Lyoko. It's a mix of eras in one block! ToonMasterJay: Checked out the CW4Kids website, they finally ditched the old footer. It's official, this ship is sailing under the 4Kids flag now. Nice to see they're stepping up their game with accounts and points, plus some games to boot! Animanga4Life: 4Kids moving in with accounts and points? Sounds like they're setting up a cool rewards system. And that might just get more kids invested in the website beyond streaming shows--a savvy move. GoGoFan223: GoGoRiki getting prime time with the big 4Kids dogs is great news. Its cute factor is off the charts. Could be the one to round out the new vibe CW4Kids is going for if they play their cards right. SonicXforever: Glad to see Sonic racing into the lineup. It's about time he got back into the limelight. Now to see how he fares among the newer offerings. Talk about a speed battle! PokeNostalgia101: Pokemon getting its rightful place has me all fired up! But it's kinda odd to still see show pages for the ousted shows on the website. Anyone else notice that? Hopefully, they'll clear that up soon. LyokoLover: The fact that Code Lyoko is sticking around amidst all the changes shows its resilience. Maybe 4Kids recognizes the gold they have with some of these Kids WB shows. The perfect yin to their yang. ComicStripKid: Well, can't say 4Kids isn't taking a balanced approach to this transition. Keeping half the lineup from Kids WB seems like a strategic way to ensure they don't lose the existing audience while they woo new viewers with nostalgia and updated features. WebWader: The website is getting there, slowly but surely. With account functionality and games, it looks like 4Kids is channeling some vintage interactivity magic. Here's to mission: engage the digitally-savvy generation! ToonTalker91: Seeing "(c) 2024 4Kids Entertainment" at the bottom of the website gives me mixed emotions--it's good to see they're updating stuff, but the nostalgia for Kids WB is real. Any bets on how long Gloopy and Glitter can hold out? Admin_4KidsRevamp: Thanks for sticking with us through the changes! We're excited about the new lineup and website features, and this is just the beginning. As for the site, we're rolling out updates over the next few weeks to ensure the best experience for all our visitors.

ToonMasterJay: Mid-April's gonna hit us with a serious 1-2 punch, folks! We're diving into a digital online video style aesthetic, making the "You're signed on to the CW4Kids" slogan legit. Plus, line-up's getting shaken up again--big time! DigitalToonFan: Heard the scoop that Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, and Ultimate Spider Man are waving goodbye. But we're keeping the virtual adventures of Code Lyoko and the quirky "Gloopy and Glitter"--two survivors of the cull. Animanga4Life: For the manga/anime fans, Pokemon Horizons: The Series is swooping in to replace the original Pokemon series! Exciting to see some new journeys and battles. Gotta love the continuous evolution of the Pokemon franchise on the CW4Kids. GoGoFan223: And what about that triple threat joining the fray? Chaotic, TMNT: Back to the Sewer, and Viva Pinata are about to spice things up! Feels like 4Kids is tossing in as many flavors as they can to see what sticks. SonicXforever: Greatest thing about CW4Kids right now? They're not afraid to mix it up. The digital look update has me hyped--it's like the block is leveling up. Hopefully, it adds a fresh vibe that resonates with the digital generation. PokeNostalgia101: Pokemon Horizons: The Series will def pull in the crowd looking for that cutting-edge anime action. Pokemon always knows how to keep things fresh. LyokoLover: Sad to see some old friends go, but Code Lyoko holding strong gives me hope. It's like our own little slice of stability in this whirlwind of changes. ComicStripKid: With the digital online style coming, CW4Kids is clearly gunning for a certain look and feel. Let's just cross our fingers it blends seamlessly with the cartoon essence we all tune in for. WebWader: Do you think bringing in Chaotic, TMNT, and Viva Pinata is going too far back into the vault? I'm all for nostalgia, but I hope they still invest in newer properties or original content. Balance is key. ToonTalker91: Big stuff with Pokemon Horizons; it's been creating buzz all over! As for Chaotic and TMNT: Back to the Sewer, that's unexpected! Not so sure what to expect from Viva Pinata, though... a wildcard entry, I'd say. Admin_4KidsRevamp: Expect the unexpected with CW4Kids! We're committed to delivering a modern digital vibe with the shows you love, new and old. Mid-April is going to be a milestone moment for the block, so prepare for an eye-catching refresh and lineup that packs a punch!

CHATBOT: Thread Title: CW4Kids: Name Change Promos Decoded - What's Next? ToonMasterJay: Alright, CW4Kids enthusiasts! The name change promos have been airing throughout December, hinting at something big. But they've been super vague! Just showcasing our usual favorites like Code Lyoko, Gloopy and Glitter, etc., without much detail. Thoughts on what this could mean? DigitalToonFan: Noticed that too. It's all been quite cryptic with flashes of our beloved shows but no solid info. My guess? They're setting the stage for a major overhaul in January. Why else be so secretive? Transition phase, perhaps? GoGoFan223: The mystery is killing me! I'm curious about how they'll balance the Kids WB legacy with whatever new direction 4Kids is planning. Hoping it's not just a total rehash of their old programming slate... SonicXforever: Yeah, I'm half-excited and half-worried. The promos are nostalgic, but without any clear indication of future programming, it's a mixed bag. They're probably leaning hard into the nostalgia factor to keep us hooked during the transition. LyokoLover: Agreed on the nostalgia play. But if they're smart, they'll keep some of the Kids WB magic going. Code Lyoko and Gloopy and Glitter getting screentime in the promos gives me hope. Maybe they're signaling continuity amidst change? Animanga4Life: Anyone else pick up on that "You're signed on to the CW4Kids" tagline at the end? It's a clear nod to a digital shift, maybe even a more online, interactive experience. Still, it's kind of early to slap on a new slogan if the full change won't hit until Easter. WebWader: Noticed the branding mishmash on the website too. Shows the old and presumed new guardians of the block but hasn't dropped the full 4Kids identity yet. It's like they're moving at a snail's pace. Or maybe they're just cautious about a smooth transition? ComicStripKid: It feels like they're testing the waters with us, the audience, keeping a foot in both worlds--Kids WB and what's to come. Building anticipation? Sure. But they should tread carefully not to alienate the existing fanbase with too drastic changes. PokeNostalgia101: Patience might be key here. These promos could just be the appetizer before the main course. Though they really should update their website info sooner than later to avoid confusion. Also, hoping Pokemon stays in some form; it's a staple! ToonTalker91: Yeah, the suspense is part of the game, but clarity will be crucial soon. They've stirred the pot; now we need to see w...

USER: Thread Title: Squish Cartoon Coming to Kids WB! Mid-Season Madness GreenJelly223: Hey Squish fans! Did you guys hear the news? There's a Squish cartoon in the works and it's hitting Kids WB's mid-season lineup! Can't wait to see our favorite amoeba make the jump from page to screen! MicrobeMania: No way, this is awesome! Squish has been one of my favorite graphic novel series for my kids. They're going to freak out! Have they announced who's behind the animation or any voice actors yet? AmoebaAmy: OMG, this made my day! I stumbled onto the news on Twitter but wasn't sure if it was real. I just hope they keep the charm of the comics. The sense of humor in Squish is just right for a cartoon! ScienceRules45: @MicrobeMania I read that the team behind some of the recent popular cartoons is on board for this. As for voice actors, nothing's announced yet. I'm crossing my fingers they get some quality talent. Hoping for some great chemistry between Squish, Pod, and Peggy. TheComicNerd21: True, voice acting can make or break a cartoon adaptation. I'm a bit skeptical, tbh. Sometimes these transitions lose the spirit of the original material. But I'll reserve judgment until we get a trailer or something. ArtsyOwl: Has anyone heard about the art style yet? The simplistic yet expressive style of the books is super charming. Kids WB tends to go for flashier animation, though I hope they keep it close to the spirit of the Squish comics. HappyMom200: I just hope they tackle the educational aspects well. My kids learned so much about microorganisms from these books while laughing their heads off. It'll be great for them to watch Squish's adventures! BioGeek: Yes! Education through entertainment is the best. I mean, who knew an amoeba could make science this fun? And considering we've all become amateur virologists lately (thanks, 2020), the timing couldn't be better. GreenJelly223: For sure, @BioGeek. They have a chance here to really create something that's as informational as it is entertaining. I also love how the books touch on themes of friendship and acceptance. If they keep that intact, it's going to be a hit. MicrobeMania: Anybody have any insider scoop on when we might be getting a peek at the animation or the voice cast? I'm super eager to see anything at this point! Bacteriophage_: Rumors say a teaser might drop sometime in the spring. Keep your eyes peeled and your streaming devices ready! AmoebaAmy: Well, here's hoping Kids WB keeps the slime rolling! Can't wait to see our little squishy buddy in action. Let's keep this thread updated with any new info! Admin5: This thread has been locked due to its inactivity over 30 days. Please feel free to open a new one if you have more news or want to continue the discussion about the upcoming Squish cartoon. Write a follow up where the premiere is in mid March, Also, Apple and Onion is being replaced by the return of reruns of Xiaolin Showdown, also TTG, Gumball and Johnny Test are still the flagships, Also The Tom and Jerry Show is over, and will be replaced by Steven Universe reruns in May Thread Title: Squish Premiere Date and Schedule Changes on Kids WB! Bacteriophage_: Hey everyone, big news! The Squish cartoon is set to premiere in mid-March! Clear your calendars and get ready for some amoeba action! Who's excited? CartoonAficionado: Finally, some concrete dates! I've been keeping an eye out since our last thread went quiet. Mid-March is sooner than I expected. Also heard about some schedule shake-ups. Looks like Apple and Onion is getting shelved for the Xiaolin Showdown reruns. Not sure how I feel about that one. AmoebaAmy: Squish is starting soon?! That's awesome! I'm totally having a viewing party with my kids. But wow, Apple and Onion out for Xiaolin Showdown...nostalgia trip, anyone? I did love that show, but it's a bit of a genre leap from Apple and Onion. RestInToons: RIP The Tom and Jerry Show. Kinda saw that ending coming. And to be replaced by Steven Universe reruns in May? I need new cartoons, not just rewinds. But Steven Universe is still a gem, at least. MicrobeMania: No more Tom and Jerry? That's the end of an era. Though, to be fair, SU reruns are solid. It's not every day you get a show that tackles heavy themes with magical aliens. Still, can't help but hope we get some fresh blood in the lineup eventually. ScienceRules45: True, new content is key, but at least we have Squish! And with TTG, Gumball, and Johnny Test holding the fort as flagships, I think Kids WB has a pretty balanced mix. Squish might just be the breath of fresh air we need right now. GreenJelly223: So, mid-March for Squish, that's great! Does anyone know if that's going to affect TTG, Gumball, or Johnny Test air times? I know they're the heavy hitters, just hoping Squish gets a good slot that doesn't clash. TheComicNerd21: Haven't seen anything about time changes for the flagships. I reckon Squish will find its place without much issue. Kids WB tends to do well with scheduling around their mainstays. And let's face it--TTG is practically unmovable at this point. HappyMom200: My kids will be over the moon with the return of Xiaolin Showdown. I loved it as a kid, too. It's going to be a mix of new and old at our house with Squish and the reruns. I think Kids WB might just pull off this balance. Still, hoping those reruns are just placeholders for future original content. ArtsyOwl: I'm just happy Squish is making its debut! Sure, schedule changes are always a bit of a rollercoaster, but that's the nature of TV, right? Out with the old, in with the new... and sometimes back in with the old! Admin5: Friendly reminder to keep industry rumor discussions civil. Looking forward to seeing how Squish is received by the community here! Let's revisit this thread after the premiere to share our thoughts. And, as always, stay tuned for any further schedule updates from Kids WB. Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up during the summer, The summer lineup has TTG, Gumball, Steven Universe, Xiaolin Showdown, Johnny Test, Squish, Skatoony, Scooby Doo and Guess Who, Looney Tunes Cartoons and Craig of the Creek, Also, new episodes of Ben 10, Looney Tunes Cartoons, Teen Titans Go, Craig of the Creek and Johnny Test return in September Thread Title: Kids WB Summer Lineup + Fall New Episodes Info! GreenJelly223: Summer's heating up, folks, and so is Kids WB's lineup! We're looking at TTG, Gumball, Steven Universe, and Xiaolin Showdown reruns. Plus, Squish, Skatoony, Scooby Doo and Guess Who, Looney Tunes Cartoons, and Craig of the Creek are all part of the mix. How's everyone feeling about the current programming? CartoonAficionado: Honestly, it's a bit of a mixed bag, but I'm not complaining! New fans are getting a taste of some classic toons with Xiaolin Showdown, and Squish has been a pleasant surprise--really nailing it. Plus, Craig of the Creek is always solid. It's like a buffet of different cartoon flavors this summer. Bacteriophage_: And don't forget what's coming in the fall - new episodes of Ben 10, Looney Tunes Cartoons, Teen Titans Go, Craig of the Creek, and Johnny Test. September can't come soon enough! AmoebaAmy: Squish has been an absolute delight! My kids adore it, and it's turning into our little summer tradition to watch together. As much as I love TTG and Gumball, it's Squish that has us tuning in with the most excitement. TheComicNerd21: A heads-up for all the true toon fans out there: new episodes for some of these shows are usually a blast. I've got high hopes for the fall, especially for Craig of the Creek--they've been consistently knocking it out of the park. ScienceRules45: I'm just glad we have such variety. Keeps the channel interesting. Summer is always tricky with kids home all day, but this lineup has something for everybody. ArtsyOwl: Agreed on the variety. The blend of classic and contemporary shows has me responding like I'm five and thirteen all at once. By the way, the art in the latest season of Looney Tunes Cartoons has been stellar. Can't wait to see what they do next. MicrobeMania: I am surprised how well Skatoony holds up. It's not everyone's cup of tea, but the quizzing with cartoons is unique. And with Scooby Doo and Guess Who featured, it feels like we've got a bit of a detective theme going on. Or is it just me? RestInToons: September seems pretty far, but I got a feeling that new Teen Titans Go and Johnny Test episodes will make some serious waves. Ben 10, too, has been gearing up for something big, at least that's the vibe. HappyMom200: It's a stable lineup for sure. Steven Universe reruns are still a hit in my house. Plus, I appreciate the educational value in shows like Squish. Keeps the kids learning even out of school--parents' summer dream! Admin5: Great to see such positivity about the lineup! As always, discuss your favorite shows, but please remember no spoilers for unaired episodes. Let's reconvene in this thread when the new episodes drop in September to share our thoughts and reviews! Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up where Robotboy is added to the schedule the next year in May 2022 when Summer begins, B10, LTC and SU are leaving, Robotboy, Skatoony and Chop Socky Chooks are taking their place, Also in the fall, we have a few new shows, Ultimate Spider-Man, Batman: The Brave and the bold and Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorporated, Also a new acquired comedy cartoon about 2 blobs Thread Title: Kids WB Schedule Shakeup - Hello Robotboy, So Long Ben 10 & Others! GreenJelly223: Hold onto your remotes, toon fans! Coming up next in May 2022, just as summer kicks off, Kids WB is adding Robotboy to the lineup. It's a nostalgia hit for sure but sad to see some good ones like Ben 10, Looney Tunes Cartoons, and Steven Universe leave us. Thoughts? TheComicNerd21: Man, Robotboy brings me back. Haven't seen that little guy in AGES. Sad to see Ben 10 go; it was always a solid watch. But, this is the life of a cartoon fan, right? Out with the old, in with the... older? Bacteriophage_: Robotboy's return is quite a surprise. It had that classic boy-and-his-robot vibe. Also, Skatoony and Chop Socky Chooks? That's quite the throwback. For those who don't remember, Chop Socky Chooks was this wild mix of kung fu and chickens--only in cartoons, folks! CartoonAficionado: Don't forget about the fall bonanza! Kids WB is loading up with some heavy hitters--Ultimate Spider-Man, Batman: The Brave and the Bold, and Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated. Plus, that new comedy about two blobs? Can't find much on it, but new content is always exciting! AmoebaAmy: Wait, so we're swapping out some superhero action with... different superhero action, and we're keeping the mystery with Scooby-Doo. And do I smell a strong comedy theme building up with the two blob cartoon? RestInToons: Totally digging the superhero update with Ultimate Spider-Man and Batman: The Brave and the Bold. They bring that comic book essence to the screen. And another comedy about blobs? Guess this one's the era of the blob, huh? ArtsyOwl: As much as I'll miss Steven Universe for its depth and progressivism, I guess I'm ready for something light-hearted. Robotboy and the blob comedy might just be the palate cleanser we need. Here's hoping they deliver some good laughs! MicrobeMania: Definitely a bummer about Ben 10 and SU. Those shows had such depth in storytelling and character development. But Scooby-Doo: Mystery Incorporated is not to be slept on. That iteration has some of the best arcs for our mystery-solving gang! ScienceRules45: Batman: The Brave and the Bold was a gem! It didn't take itself too seriously and had just the right amount of camp. And with Ultimate Spider-Man, looks like we'll still be getting our fix of animated superhero action. HappyMom200: Love the move to Batman and Spider-Man. My kid has been on a real superhero kick, and Scooby-Doo never gets old. At least, not in my household. The blob comedy sounds intriguing--Kids WB isn't afraid to experiment, that's for sure! Admin5: With these cartoon cycles, it's always sad to see some shows go but equally exciting to welcome new titles and welcome back some classics like Robotboy. Remember, fall is just around the corner, so let's keep the conversation going when those new shows hit the screen. Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up where the blob cartoon is revealed to (be one I made up, hopefully I make it as a YouTube series) be named "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" Gloopy is a normal slime blob wheras Glitter lives up to her name as a sparkling one, Also, a mid season show Code Lyoko is premiering just as COTC knocks off for Summer, Also promos for CSC are already airing Thread Title: Revealed: "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" Joins Kids WB + Code Lyoko Mid-Season Premiere! CartoonAficionado: Alright, the mystery's solved! The new blob comedy coming to Kids WB is "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter". Gloopy is your average slime blob, and Glitter is, well, super sparkly! Could be a hit if it's done well. Fingers crossed it's as fun as the name suggests. GreenJelly223: "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter," huh? That's quite the name! I'm all for original content--bringing in some fresh 'slime' to the game. Kudos to the creator, especially if they started on YouTube. That's one giant leap for slime-kind. TheComicNerd21: Between Gloopy and Glitter, I'm expecting some madcap hijinks and, hopefully, some good chemistry. Pun totally intended! It's neat seeing creators move from YouTube to big networks. What a time to be alive! Bacteriophage_: Just saw the promo for Chop Socky Chooks! Honestly, I'd forgotten about that show, but the nostalgia hit me hard. Kids WB really knows how to draw in the old school fans alongside the new ones. AmoebaAmy: Excited to see what "Gloopy and Glitter" brings to the table! It's always refreshing to see new characters and stories. Also, did anyone catch that Code Lyoko is coming back as a mid-season show? That's unexpected! I remember watching that show as a kid--the blend of 2D and 3D animation was so cool. RestInToons: Code Lyoko? No way! That show was my virtual escape. With Craig of the Creek taking a summer break, Code Lyoko has some big shoes to fill. I'm cautiously optimistic. Also, kudos to the person behind "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter". This is indie creators' dream! ArtsyOwl: Craig of the Creek is my comfort show, so knowing it's taking a break has me in my feels. But Code Lyoko might just be the perfect summer binge to replace it. That show was ahead of its time with its virtual world storyline. MicrobeMania: With Chop Socky Chooks, Code Lyoko, and now "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter," I'm sensing a theme of whimsy and adventure. Perfect for a carefree summer! It's gonna be a wild ride on Kids WB. ScienceRules45: Indeed, summer is shaping up to be full of adventure and laughs! I'm curious to see the comedic dynamics between Gloopy and Glitter and how they'll fit into the current lineup. Code Lyoko is an excellent addition for anyone who's into that sci-fi, virtual reality vibe. HappyMom200: Just peeped the promo for Gloopy and Glitter with the kids. They're already quoting lines and chuckling. Also, major props to Kids WB for the diversity in its programming--you've got old hits, modern takes, and now a homegrown web series making it to the big leagues. Admin5: The summer is looking quite adventurous with all the fresh and returning programming we have on our hands! If "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" or Code Lyoko capture your hearts, be sure to come back and let everyone know. Enjoy the shows, everyone, and let's support those indie creators making waves! Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up where another mid-season show premieres, replacing Gumball, The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers Thread Title: Mid-Season Update: The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers Replace Gumball on Kids WB! TheComicNerd21: Big news for Kids WB watchers! "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" is premiering mid-season, taking the spot "The Amazing World of Gumball" left behind. I've got high hopes that these thrill-seeking siblings will bring the same level of zany to the lineup. Can they live up to the hilarity of Gumball, though? That's the big question. GreenJelly223: Gumball's out?! Say it isn't so! That show was a staple! But I remember The Adrenalini Brothers from awhile back...they were full of over-the-top stunts and accents. Hopefully, they can fill the quirky cartoon void that's gonna be left in Gumball's wake. CartoonAficionado: "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" are pure comedic gold with those daredevil antics. Gumball set a high bar for humor and heart, but if you want outrageous adventures and laughs, the Adrenalinis could be just the ticket. ArtsyOwl: I admit, I'll miss the random humor and clever writing of Gumball. It was one of those shows that had something for viewers of all ages. The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers have a different flavor, but I'm definitely willing to give them a shot. Bacteriophage_: Well folks, all good things must come to an end, but at least the high-paced energy of The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers might fill the void. They're not new to the cartoon scene, but let's hope their stunts are as amazing as ever. MicrobeMania: "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" is a throwback! Those guys pull off some wild stunts. Kids WB seems to be aiming for high octane to take Gumball's place. Keeping my fingers crossed that they keep delivering fresh content, even in the form of older gems getting the spotlight again. RestInToons: Guess it's goodbye to Gumball and hello Adrenalini. I remember the brothers having quite the international flair. Their eclectic style should make for a refreshing change of pace. Plus, with Squish and the others, Kids WB's variety is still on point. AmoebaAmy: My kids loved Gumball, so they're a bit gutted. But I think The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers' daredevil acts might just win them over. I'm always down for more shenanigans. Here's hoping they get as much character-driven hilarity as Gumball had. ScienceRules45: Gumball's creativity was unmatched, but The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers? That's a nostalgia trip! Will be interesting to see how a show that's been off the radar for a while resonates with the current audience. HappyMom200: My Gumball marathon nights are coming to an end it seems. The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers have some big shoes to fill, but I'm ready for the laughs. In Kids WB we trust, right? Admin5: Change is part of every TV network's lifecycle. "The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers" could be what kids WB needs to shake things up. Let's give these fearless brothers a chance and reconvene here to discuss the stunts, humor, and how the show fits into the new dynamic! Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up in fall when the new shows premiere, Lyoko is sticking around, Gumball and Craig are back, but won't be for long, leaving again in January, Also, a user says Skatoony will definitely be back next year, as it has been a summer replacement show since 2018 Thread Title: Fall Premieres are Here! Welcome Back Craig & Gumball + Code Lyoko Stays! GreenJelly223: It's fall premiere season, everyone! And with the leaves changing comes new changes to Kids WB. Code Lyoko has secured its spot on the schedule, which I know some of you are thrilled about. The Amazing World of Gumball and Craig of the Creek are making a short-lived comeback, dipping out again in January. Can't get enough of those two, so I'm here for any time they're on. CartoonAficionado: Great to have Gumball and Craig back, even if it's just for a quick hello and goodbye. It's like that favorite seasonal dish you can't stop craving. And Code Lyoko sticking around? Love that for us--those virtual vibes aren't going anywhere! TheComicNerd21: Ah, the temporary returns of Gumball and Craig are bittersweet. Makes you wish they'd just stick around full-time. But, I gotta say, Code Lyoko keeping its slot is A-okay with me. That's one show I've been seriously getting back into. ArtsyOwl: The quality storytelling in Craig of the Creek will be sorely missed once January rolls around. And Gumball--it just has that rewatchability factor like no other. Soak it up while you can, folks! MicrobeMania: Just dropping in to say that Skatoony is going to be back next summer, and I'm here for it! It's kind of become the unofficial summer tradition since 2018, hasn't it? Always great to see a show that knows how to fill its seasonal shoes. Bacteriophage_: Yeah, Skatoony's like that cool summer camp you get excited about all year. But let's not overlook the fall newcomers too--I'm already setting reminders for Ultimate Spider-Man and Batman: The Brave and the Bold. The superhero binge is real! RestInToons: Mixed feelings about the short-term return of Gumball and Craig of the Creek. At least we know Kids WB is good at giving us something to look forward to. As for Code Lyoko, it's been interesting to see a show from yesteryear find its groove with the audience today. AmoebaAmy: The limited time with Gumball and Craig is better than no time! Let's enjoy the laughs and adventures while they last. And happy to have confirmed scoops like the one about Skatoony return--it's this kind of knowledge that keeps the fandom ticking. ScienceRules45: I've gotten used to the shift and shuffle of Kids WB's schedule. You learn to appreciate what you've got when you've got it. That said, I'm diving headfirst into the nostalgia and newness of this fall's lineup. It's going to be an entertaining season! HappyMom200: I'm grateful for any sprinkles of Craig of the Creek episodes we get! It's such a gem. And does anyone else get way too competitive watching Skatoony, or is that just me? Super stoked about its return next year! Admin5: Some very astute observations and a tangible excitement for the new and returning shows this fall! Let's enjoy this season's offerings, and, as always, keep the conversations engaging as we head into the new year with all its sure-to-be-surprising programming and inevitable farewells. Thread Closed by Admin5 Write a follow up in 2023 where G&G are still rerunning, but Batman, Scooby and Spidey are off, replaced with Ozzy and Drix, World of Quest and Skatoony for summer Thread Title: 2023 Kids WB Update: Ozzy & Drix, World of Quest & Skatoony Take Over Summer! GreenJelly223: Hey toon enthusiasts! As we hit the sunny stride of 2023, Kids WB is switching up the schedule. We're saying bye to Batman, Scooby, and Spidey. But don't despair--Ozzy & Drix, World of Quest, and the ever-reliable Skatoony are here for those summer vibes. Also, "The Adventures of Gloopy and Glitter" are still doing the rerun rounds. Keeping it fresh and funky! CartoonAficionado: Honestly, it's cool to see Ozzy & Drix making a comeback. That show was always under the radar but it delivered some solid laughs plus a bit of body-function education. Let's see how it holds up today! TheComicNerd21: No more Batman and Spidey is a bummer, but you know what? Bring on the Ozzy & Drix and World of Quest! I remember World of Quest being pretty out there with its humor, a good mix of action and oddball characters--definitely fitting for the wacky tone of summer. MicrobeMania: Ozzy & Drix, that's a throwback! I had a feeling it could make a resurgence. Educational and entertaining--that's a tough balance to strike, but that show had it. Also, cheers to year 5 of summer Skatoony--it's tradition at this point! ArtsyOwl: Hey, "Gloopy and Glitter" are still in the reruns, too! Shimmering on--quite literally, thanks to Glitter. It's a quirky and cute show, glad it's still around for the little ones to enjoy. Bacteriophage_: Seeing World of Quest drop into the lineup makes me hopeful that Kids WB is dedicated to keeping variety alive. Adventure, humor, outright weirdness--it's got it all. And combined with the educational fun from Ozzy & Drix, plus the game show laughs from Skatoony? Count me in for the summer! RestInToons: Sayonara superheroes! This season's lineup shows that kids' programming isn't just about capes and villains. It's about variety, surprise, and a touch of nostalgia. Let's get microscopic with Ozzy & Drix and go on a wild ride with Quest and Nestor! AmoebaAmy: Always a tad sad to see the Scooby gang go, but switching up genres keeps things interesting. Ozzy & Drix is kind of like "The Magic School Bus" for the older crowd, and I'm here for it! Plus, Skatoony is something my kids look forward to every year--glad it's not going anywhere! ScienceRules45: I've got to say, I appreciate how Kids WB keeps mixing in educational content amidst all the comedy and action. Ozzy & Drix is a blast from the past that I'm excited to revisit. It's just what we need in a world that could use a refresher on health and the human body! HappyMom200: World of Quest is an underrated treasure, and I'm thrilled it's coming back into the spotlight. It's like that fun summer book series but animated. And Skatoony is practically synonymous with summer now; glad to know some things stay solid. Admin5: The summer outlook is looking diverse and delightful! With shows that cater to every kind of young fan, there's no shortage of entertainment.

January 27 2024 Should have seen this coming the day TAWOG and COTC left for good, but Kids WB died on December 30, We now have the CW4Kids, owned by 4Kids Entertainment, and the first schedule change has happened, Squish and The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers have been replaced with Pokemon: Indigo League and Sonic X respectively, The block still has the Kids WB aesthetic, but I expect that to be gone by Easter, Also, another schedule change is coming in a few months, Teen Titans Go, Scooby Doo Mystery Inc and Batman the Brave and the Bold are being replaced with GoGoRiki (Smeshariki), Ultimate Muscle and Kirby: Right Back At Ya in 2 weeks, The remaining KWB shows as of now are Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, Code Lyoko, Ultimate Spider Man (and in 2 weeks, Gloopy and Glitter). The way they went about this was interesting, In December they started airing promos saying that from January 67 the network would be changing it's name, it didn't tell us that 4Kids are now in charge or that there would be new shows, the promo just showed the usual KWB shows like Squish, TAAB, TTG, XS, etc. Also today the promo for the next schedule change (dubbed a Super Duper Late Winter Lineup) has a new slogan "You're signed on to the CW4Kids" Slow and painful rebrand? , If you're not gonna change the bumpers untill Easter then why reveal your flashy new slogan now. Also the website (thecw4kids.com) STILL says this at the footer "(c) 2024 Warner Bros Discovery, Paramount Global, Nexstar Media Group" Hopefully it is updated to reflect 4Kids's involvement soon. Write a follow up forum convo where they talk more about the slow transition, and that GoGoRiki is cute, and that it could be primed to take over most of the current comedy cartoons Thread Title: CW4Kids: A Slow Transition & The Future of Cartoons on the Block? ToonMasterJay: So, has anyone else noticed how the CW4Kids transition is kinda like watching paint dry? The bumpers feel like Kids WB is haunting us. And they're dropping their new slogan already, but the website footer is still all about the old guard... Mixed signals much? DigitalToonFan: Yeah, the transition is definitely dragging its feet. I mean, if you're going to bring in 4Kids, then do it with a bang! Not this half-Zoom half-real-life meeting vibe. The new lineup switches could be cool though, but I'll miss Squish and The Amazing Adrenalini Brothers for sure. GoGoFan223: Honestly, I'm most excited about GoGoRiki (or Smeshariki for the purists). It's cute and has that potential to be big with the comedy crowd. Less about the action and more laughs--could be the perfect fit for the new direction they're aiming for. SonicXforever: Still processing the swap of Squish for Pokemon and TAAB for Sonic X... I mean, sure, classics! But Sonic X has been rerun how many times now? I guess they're banking on that nostalgia factor to reel us in while they're redecorating. PokeNostalgia101: Not going to lie, I'm excited to have Pokemon Indigo League back--it's like comfort food for my soul. But I hear you all, the change is weirdly slow. I get that it's a big shift from Kids WB to full-on 4Kids ownership, yet you'd think they'd want to make their mark quick. LyokoLover: Low-key glad Code Lyoko and Xiaolin Showdown are sticking around. They've got that unique appeal that isn't easy to replace. But curious how long till that changes with this new "Super Duper Late Winter Lineup." If they're ushering out TTG and Scooby, who's next? Animanga4Life: Ultimate Muscle and Kirby: Right Back At Ya coming to the block brings back fond Saturday morning memories! Although, I do get why some are skeptical; a lot of these shows have seen multiple reruns over the years. WebWader: I keep checking the website hoping it's been updated... No dice. The weird blend of old and new branding isn't helping anyone. At least update the footer to show 4Kids is steering the ship now. How hard can it be? ComicStripKid: The lineup change feels like a balance between targeting the parents who grew up with these shows and trying to appeal to the new gen of cartoon fans. GoGoRiki's charm and simplicity could be their ticket into the latter's hearts. I see a mascot in the making. ToonTalker91: Not thrilled about the slow pace here. It's like we're stuck in Kids WB limbo. I miss the days when a rebrand meant a fresh start, not this lingering goodbye. Curious how Gloopy and Glitter will fare with the rest of the changes looming... Will they be the last ones standing? Admin_4KidsRevamp: Please bear with us during this transition. We're working hard to bring a fresh and exciting lineup while honoring the legacy of what came before. Believe us, it'll be worth the wait! Stay tuned for more updates and enjoy the shows in the meantime. Thread Closed by Admin_4KidsRevamp Write a follow up in mid Feb where the Feb lineup is here, 5 4Kids shows (Pokemon, Sonic, Ultimate Muscle, Kirby and GoGoRiki) and 5 Kids WB shows (Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, Ultimate Spider Man, Gloopy and Glitter and Code Lyoko) Also, the website now has an account and points system, games, and has updated the footer to "(c) 2024 4Kids Entertainment", Website otherwise remains the same, and still has show pages for removed shows, but this will slowly change in the coming weeks Thread Title: CW4Kids Mid-Feb Lineup is Live! Balance of Old and New + Website Updates DigitalToonFan: The balance has been struck, folks! Five 4Kids classics--Pokemon, Sonic, Ultimate Muscle, Kirby, and GoGoRiki--and five Kids WB staples--Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, Ultimate Spider Man, Gloopy and Glitter, and Code Lyoko. It's a mix of eras in one block! ToonMasterJay: Checked out the CW4Kids website, they finally ditched the old footer. It's official, this ship is sailing under the 4Kids flag now. Nice to see they're stepping up their game with accounts and points, plus some games to boot! Animanga4Life: 4Kids moving in with accounts and points? Sounds like they're setting up a cool rewards system. And that might just get more kids invested in the website beyond streaming shows--a savvy move. GoGoFan223: GoGoRiki getting prime time with the big 4Kids dogs is great news. Its cute factor is off the charts. Could be the one to round out the new vibe CW4Kids is going for if they play their cards right. SonicXforever: Glad to see Sonic racing into the lineup. It's about time he got back into the limelight. Now to see how he fares among the newer offerings. Talk about a speed battle! PokeNostalgia101: Pokemon getting its rightful place has me all fired up! But it's kinda odd to still see show pages for the ousted shows on the website. Anyone else notice that? Hopefully, they'll clear that up soon. LyokoLover: The fact that Code Lyoko is sticking around amidst all the changes shows its resilience. Maybe 4Kids recognizes the gold they have with some of these Kids WB shows. The perfect yin to their yang. ComicStripKid: Well, can't say 4Kids isn't taking a balanced approach to this transition. Keeping half the lineup from Kids WB seems like a strategic way to ensure they don't lose the existing audience while they woo new viewers with nostalgia and updated features. WebWader: The website is getting there, slowly but surely. With account functionality and games, it looks like 4Kids is channeling some vintage interactivity magic. Here's to mission: engage the digitally-savvy generation! ToonTalker91: Seeing "(c) 2024 4Kids Entertainment" at the bottom of the website gives me mixed emotions--it's good to see they're updating stuff, but the nostalgia for Kids WB is real. Any bets on how long Gloopy and Glitter can hold out? Admin_4KidsRevamp: Thanks for sticking with us through the changes! We're excited about the new lineup and website features, and this is just the beginning. As for the site, we're rolling out updates over the next few weeks to ensure the best experience for all our visitors.

Plus, line-up's getting shaken up again--big time! DigitalToonFan: Heard the scoop that Johnny Test, Xiaolin Showdown, and Ultimate Spider Man are waving goodbye. But we're keeping the virtual adventures of Code Lyoko and the quirky "Gloopy and Glitter"--two survivors of the cull. Animanga4Life: For the manga/anime fans, Pokemon Horizons: The Series is swooping in to replace the original Pokemon series! Exciting to see some new journeys and battles. Gotta love the continuous evolution of the Pokemon franchise on the CW4Kids. GoGoFan223: And what about that triple threat joining the fray? Chaotic, TMNT: Back to the Sewer, and Viva Pinata are about to spice things up! Feels like 4Kids is tossing in as many flavors as they can to see what sticks. SonicXforever: Greatest thing about CW4Kids right now? They're not afraid to mix it up. The digital look update has me hyped--it's like the block is leveling up. Hopefully, it adds a fresh vibe that resonates with the digital generation. PokeNostalgia101: Pokemon Horizons: The Series will def pull in the crowd looking for that cutting-edge anime action. Pokemon always knows how to keep things fresh. LyokoLover: Sad to see some old friends go, but Code Lyoko holding strong gives me hope. It's like our own little slice of stability in this whirlwind of changes. ComicStripKid: With the digital online style coming, CW4Kids is clearly gunning for a certain look and feel. Let's just cross our fingers it blends seamlessly with the cartoon essence we all tune in for. WebWader: Do you think bringing in Chaotic, TMNT, and Viva Pinata is going too far back into the vault? I'm all for nostalgia, but I hope they still invest in newer properties or original content. Balance is key. ToonTalker91: Big stuff with Pokemon Horizons; it's been creating buzz all over! As for Chaotic and TMNT: Back to the Sewer, that's unexpected! Not so sure what to expect from Viva Pinata, though... a wildcard entry, I'd say. Admin_4KidsRevamp: Expect the unexpected with CW4Kids! We're committed to delivering a modern digital vibe with the shows you love, new and old. Mid-April is going to be a milestone moment for the block, so prepare for an eye-catching refresh and lineup that packs a punch! 4Kids_Editor: Hello, 4Kids fans! Big news! We're thrilled to announce that starting the first Saturday of 2024, 4Kids will be taking over the CW Saturday morning block! We've got a fantastic lineup planned that we can't wait to share with you. Expect more details in the coming weeks. Stay tuned! SuperSaiyanGoku22: That's huge! Congrats to the 4Kids team. Any hints on what shows are going to be part of the lineup? ToonFanatic84: With Teen Titans Go being the current titan of Kids WB, it'll be interesting to see if 4Kids brings any superhero content to the table. 4Kids_Editor: While I can't reveal specifics just yet, let's just say fans of action and humor will be very pleased. RetroRikiFan: Wait, is this a hint that GoGoRiki could play a major role? It has that perfect blend of action and humor, and considering its success elsewhere, it'd be the right fit. PokeMasterJojo: Speaking of shows, how are things looking on the 4Kids TV channel? Last I checked, Pokemon was doing pretty solid. 4Kids_Editor: Pokemon continues to perform exceptionally well for us - it's a fantastic franchise with a dedicated fanbase. However, it's true that One Piece has been facing some challenges in the ratings department. We're working on strategies to bring more attention to it. ToonFanatic84: Interesting to hear about One Piece. It seems like anime can be hit or miss outside of Japan. Pokemon is just universally loved, I guess. AnimeLover101: It's all about how it's adapted and presented, IMO. One Piece has a massive following, so maybe it's more about finding what clicks with the audiences here. RetroRikiFan: Going back to GoGoRiki, if it's part of the new lineup, I'm betting it'll become the most popular show on the block. There's just something about those characters that could really resonate with viewers, especially if Teen Titans Go's comedy style is anything to go by. 4Kids_Editor: All wonderful points and speculation! We're definitely taking note of what our viewers are interested in. More detailed announcements will come soon, so keep an eye out. Thanks for all your excitement and support--2024 is going to be an amazing year for 4Kids on the CW and our 4Kids TV channel! 4Kids_Editor: Hey, 4Kids community! Following up on our previous announcement and all the buzzing theories (shoutout to RetroRikiFan for calling out GoGoRiki ), we wanted to touch upon the vibe we're aiming for with our new CW Saturday morning block. The world can be a tough place, and we believe in the power of light-hearted, fun programming that can bring smiles to faces, young and old. Shows like GoGoRiki embody that spirit--cute, engaging, and filled with positive messages and laughs. We're betting big that such shows will not only be very popular but also set a refreshing tone for what kids' entertainment can be about. Now, for some digital front news! We've seen some interesting shifts in what's catching fire on 4kids.tv. As of now, here are the four most streamed shows on our platform: 1. Pokemon - No surprise here! Pokemon continues to capture hearts with its endless adventures and beloved characters. 2. Yu-Gi-Oh! - Still a powerhouse in the streaming world. It seems the heart of the cards resonates with quite a lot of you! 3. Sonic X - Speeding up to the third spot, Sonic X has seen a resurgence, proving that the Blue Blur is timeless. 4. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - Heroes in a half shell have climbed up the ranks, bringing action and pizza-fueled fun to viewers. It's fascinating to see the diverse interests of our audience. From classic battles in Yu-Gi-Oh! to the fast-paced adventures in Sonic X, it's clear our fans love a wide range of themes and stories. Given this insight, we're even more excited about our plans for the new CW block and are committed to bringing a mix of action, humor, and heartfelt stories to the forefront. Shows like GoGoRiki, with its unique charm and positive messages, are exactly what we believe will resonate with our viewers. What do you think of the current top shows? Any surprises or predictions for what might climb the ranks next year? Let's hear your thoughts! And remember, our aim is to light up your Saturdays with joy and adventure. The countdown to 2024 begins - we can't wait to share this journey with you! PokeMasterJojo: Super pumped to see Pokemon leading the pack! It truly is a show that never gets old. Also, really curious about how GoGoRiki will do. I remember it being quite fun! YuGiOhMaster88: Yu-Gi-Oh! holding strong! It's amazing how the fanbase remains so engaged after all these years. Definitely looking forward to seeing what the new CW block has in store for us. SpeedsterFan: Sonic X making a comeback is the best news! Shows the classics can still kick it with the best of them. Can't wait to see what's next! TurtlePower: TMNT is where it's at! Action, humor, and the best band of brothers. Excited to see what else 4Kids has planned if this is the kind of quality they're aiming for. 4Kids_Blogger: Greetings, 4Kids community! We hope you're as excited as we are as we countdown to our takeover of the CW Saturday morning block on January 6, 2024. We're busy preparing a lineup that's sure to dazzle and entertain, with a mix of fan favorites and fresh faces. In other news, we've been monitoring the performance of various shows across the Kids WB, and it's become apparent that "Squish" has been facing some significant challenges in capturing the audience's attention. Despite its creative approach to storytelling and animation, the show hasn't performed as well as hoped in its current slot. ToonWorldCritic: I've noticed "Squish" struggling too. Honestly, with the kind of ratings it's been pulling, I wouldn't be surprised if it gets replaced as soon as 4Kids takes over on Jan 6. It's a competitive block, and every show needs to pull its weight. AnimeAdventurer: It's tough seeing a show not do well, but I'm really looking forward to what 4Kids brings to the table. I have faith that the new lineup will be something special! SaturdayMorningFan: Sad about "Squish," but honestly, the anticipation for the new shows 4Kids is planning is through the roof. I'm hoping for a mix of action and comedy--something that both kids and parents can enjoy together! 4Kids_Blogger: We're grateful for your understanding and enthusiasm! It gives us great confidence knowing we have such a supportive and excited audience as we work towards launching our new lineup. Ensuring a vibrant and engaging Saturday morning experience for all our viewers remains our top priority, and we can't wait to unveil what we've been working on for January 6, 2024. Stay tuned, and thank you for your continued support! SentriyMoceu: If anything I'd assume one of the comedic shows they have (e.g Viva Pinata, Four Eyes!, GoGoRiki) will replace it. Not sure why GoGoRiki is only available in America, probably because of KikoRiki everywhere else, Anyways, Code Lyoko, Johnny Test and Teen Titans Go are the most rated shows on Kids WB, so it will be interesting to see if they make the cut Adrenalinieh: Four Eyes! is that acquired show about the alien girl, For those unaware, it revolves around Emma, a alien girl from Albacore 7 who is sent to Earth to repeat 5th grade, She is a pink, four eyed squid in alien form, but when she wears a special set of glasses she becomes human, and the worst part is she is a geek (bucktooth and all), Her only friends are 2 Earth boys named Pete and Skyler, It's pretty funny, It was originally produced by Porchlight Entertainment and Pictor Media, but when Porchlight shut down the rights became lost untill 2020 when the show was bought by 4Kids, Also I have no idea what's going on with the CW block yet, although I do know the full lineup is hitting in the Spring (with GoGoRiki, Pokemon, Yu Gi Oh, Turtles, Sonic X and probably Chaotic). Klusiei: Leaving the lineup is Shaman King and Beyblade Metal Fusion/Fury, being removed from December 1st, replacing them is Pokemon Battle Frontier and Pokemon XYZ (Guess 4Kids really are glad they got the rights back, AND they even can broadcast and stream the seasons TPCI dubbed), I expect then is when we'll get an announcement on Kids WB changing its name, Also, they recently aired one of the GoGoRiki movies (The Time Team, also known as Smeshariki: Deja Vu). Write a continuation forum convo where the first user (MaxK) takes a guess as to what will replace Squish, and they also worry for Beyblade) MaxK: Sad to hear about Squish struggling, but with 4Kids taking over in 2024, I'm curious to see what will fill its slot. Given the speculation and love for GoGoRiki, I wouldn't be too surprised if it or Four Eyes! takes over. But what about Beyblade? With Shaman King and Beyblade Metal Fusion/Fury being pulled off the air, I'm starting to worry about the future of Beyblade on the channel. Any chance it could make a return, or are we looking at a complete refresh of the lineup? BladeMasterZ: Yeah, the removal of Beyblade has me concerned too. That series has a loyal fanbase, and it would be a shame to see it disappear completely from early Decemberthe lineup. Maybe 4Kids has plans to reintroduce it later on? Would love to see something new or perhaps a return of some classic series in a new slot. AnimeGalaxy: With all the changes happening, it's an exciting time for 4Kids and the CW block. I've got high hopes for GoGoRiki and Four Eyes!, both seem like they could bring a fresh vibe. As for Beyblade, I'm holding out hope that it's not gone for good. Maybe they're making room for something big? RetroToonFan: Honestly, seeing Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh! still going strong gives me hope for other classic series to maintain their spot or make a comeback. Beyblade has such a rich history with 4Kids; I can't imagine it won't make some kind of return. Also, super excited for the potential addition of Four Eyes! and GoGoRiki. The lineup sounds like it's shaping up to be a solid mix of action, adventure, and laughs! ToonAnalyzer: Remember, 4Kids taking over the CW Saturday morning block could mean they're looking to revitalize it with a diverse selection of shows. While it's sad to see beloved shows like Squish and potentially Beyblade not making the cut immediately, it opens the door for new content and revamps of existing franchises. GoGoRiki and Four Eyes! seem like just the beginning. Let's not forget, in the world of television and entertainment, changes are constant. Who knows? We might see a resurgence of Beyblade in a new format or part of a strategic roll-out later in 2024. MaxK: Great points all around. Guess it's a waiting game now to see how everything unfolds. Really hoping for a big comeback for Beyblade in some form. Until then, I'm keeping an open mind about the name change promosnew lineup. Excited to see how 4Kids will spice things up come January 2024! Write a continuation about the ratings for the Friday Fun-Noon block on 4Kids TV (which has 5 shows) Chaotic got mid ratings, whereas Pokemon got stellar ratings, TVTrendWatcher: Speaking of 4Kids' lineup changes, has anyone been keeping an eye on the Friday Fun-Noon block ratings? Last I checked, Pokemon was absolutely killing it with stellar ratings - proof that the franchise is still a titan in children's entertainment. But it seems Chaotic isn't faring quite as well, landing in the mid-range. It's a cool concept, but maybe it's not resonating as much with the audience? CardCollectKid: It's a bummer about Chaotic. I personally love the blend of card games and storytelling. However, Pokemon reigns supreme not just in gaming but in the TV world, it seems. It just has that magical formula that keeps kids (and let's be honest, plenty of adults) hooked. AnimationAfficionado: Besides Pokemon and Chaotic, does anyone know how the other shows in the Friday Fun-Noon block are doing? I heard mixed reviews but haven't seen any hard data on ratings. DigitalDynamo: If memory serves, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Sonic X are holding strong with good ratings, especially when there are big story arcs or crossover events. As for the fifth show, Yu-Gi-Oh!, it's not hitting Pokemon levels but is still a solid performer, appealing to its loyal fanbase with its ever-evolving storyline and high-stakes duels. RetroToonFan: Makes sense. TMNT and Sonic X have that nostalgic factor for parents and still manage to feel fresh for the new generation. Yu-Gi-Oh! has always had a dedicated following, too. It's interesting to see how different franchises perform on TV versus their other media, like games or comics. ToonTownInsider: With Pokemon setting the benchmark so high, I wonder if 4Kids might consider rejigging the Friday Fun-Noon block to boost overall viewership. Maybe introduce a new show to see if it can catch that Pokemon lightning in a bottle? TVTrendWatcher: That's a possibility. With the constant evolution of kids' interests, 4Kids could indeed look for another hit to complement Pokemon. It might also be worthwhile for them to invest more in marketing lesser-watched shows like Chaotic, perhaps by integrating them more with popular social media challenges or interactive online platforms. CardCollectKid: Agreed. Also, maybe some crossover specials could help? Pokemon's had a few cameos in other 4Kids shows over the years, which always seemed to
