Write a Kids WB lineup from May 2007, compared with one from March 2008 and November 2008
In May 2007, the Kids’ WB programming block was still actively airing on The CW network, following the merger of The WB and UPN into The CW in 2006. By this time, the lineup featured a mix of animated series aimed at children and pre-teens. Here is an exemplar Saturday morning slate from May 2007:

1. “Tom and Jerry Tales”
2. “Shaggy & Scooby-Doo Get a Clue!”
3. “Johnny Test”
4. “Legion of Super Heroes”
5. “The Batman”
6. “Xiaolin Showdown”
7. “Loonatics Unleashed”

Moving forward to March 2008, Kids’ WB continued airing but with some changes in its lineup due to new shows being introduced and others being phased out. A typical lineup would look something like this:

1. “Will & Dewitt”
2. “Tom and Jerry Tales”
3. “Skunk Fu!”
4. “Johnny Test”
5. “The Spectacular Spider-Man”
6. “Legion of Super Heroes”
7. “The Batman”

However, by November 2008, the landscape of Saturday morning cartoons on The CW had notably changed. Kids’ WB aired its last broadcast on May 17, 2008, making way for a new block called The CW4Kids, managed by 4Kids Entertainment. This transition reflected a significant shift in the programming strategy and offerings. For November 2008, under The CW4Kids banner, the lineup would have included shows like:

1. “Will & Dewitt” (Though primarily a part of the early transitional phase)
2. “The Spectacular Spider-Man”
3. “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Back to the Sewer”
4. “Yu-Gi-Oh! GX”
5. “Chaotic”
6. “Sonic X”
7. “Dinosaur King”

This comparison illustrates the evolution of children’s programming from the traditional Kids’ WB block to the 4Kids-led CW4Kids. The transition showcases a shift towards more action-oriented and franchise-based series, in part driven by the changing landscape of children’s television and the increasing importance of media franchises.

Write a CW4Kids transitional lineup during Summer 2008, MA is temporarily back, at 11:30am, the block is half-4Kids half KWB at this stage
During the transitional phase in Summer 2008, as Kids’ WB morphed into The CW4Kids, the lineup would have been a unique blend of shows from both programming blocks. The mixed nature of this period means that viewers could enjoy a diverse range of content that bridged the gap between the old and new. Below is a hypothetical Saturday morning lineup for this period, reflecting a balance between legacy Kids’ WB shows and new offerings that would define The CW4Kids. It’s important to remember that in such transitional periods, lineups can be especially fluid as networks test viewer reception to various shows.

### Transitional CW4Kids Lineup - Summer 2008

#### Saturday Morning
- 7:00 AM - “Magi-Nation” (Kids’ WB legacy content continuing its run)
- 7:30 AM - “Tom and Jerry Tales” (A holdover from the Kids’ WB days, beloved by audiences)
- 8:00 AM - “Sonic X” (New to the block, bringing in a fresh audience)
- 8:30 AM - “Gogoriki” (4Kids content introduced to the lineup)
- 9:00 AM - “The Spectacular Spider-Man” (A new but rapidly popular addition from the Kids’ WB final days)
- 9:30 AM - “Skunk Fu!” (Another series continuing from the Kids’ WB era)
- 10:00 AM - “Yu-Gi-Oh! GX” (A 4Kids staple, marking the new direction of the block)
- 10:30 AM - “Legion of Super Heroes” (One of the last Kids’ WB shows airing during the transition)
- 11:00 AM - “Johnny Test” (Retaining its slot as it was still a strong performer from the late Kids’ WB lineup)
- 11:30 AM - “Monster Allergy” (Reflecting the unique circumstance mentioned, this series makes a brief return or continuation during this hybrid period, serving as a nod to the legacy of Kids’ WB content for viewers during the transition)

This hybrid lineup features a mix of superhero-themed series, action-packed adventures, and comedic animated series that aim to cater to a broad audience, from younger children to early teens. The blend reflects an intention to maintain the existing Kids’ WB audience while gradually introducing and testing new content that would come to define The CW4Kids identity.

Engaging a transitional lineup like this would have been part of the strategy to ensure a smooth handover from the legacy of Kids’ WB to the new direction under The CW4Kids branding. It helped to gently introduce viewers to new characters and stories while ensuring that they could still enjoy some of their favorite shows from the previous programming block, minimizing viewer drop-off during the changeover period.

### Thread Title: Confusion Reigns: Who’s Really in Charge of CW4Kids Now? Plus, What’s Up with CW4Kids.com?

#### CoolToonWatcher
Hey folks, have you noticed the weird vibes around the CW4Kids lineup lately? It feels like we’re in some sort of limbo about who’s actually steering the ship. On one hand, there are the remnants of Kids’ WB, but then there’s also a ton of 4Kids branding popping up. I tried checking CW4Kids.com for some clarity, and it’s like stepping into a digital ghost town in some sections. What’s the deal?

#### SaturdayMornNostalgia
Absolutely! It’s been super confusing. I saw “Monster Allergy” on the schedule next to “Yu-Gi-Oh! GX,” and it felt like time-traveling between eras. Last I checked, 4Kids was supposed to revamp the whole scene, but it looks like there’s a tug-of-war behind the scenes. Couldn’t find much info on CW4Kids.com either, some parts of the site are incredibly outdated.

#### ToonStrategist
Speaking of CW4Kids.com, is anyone else finding the site layout a bit…lost? Half the links to the show pages don’t even work properly, and updates are hit-or-miss. I was looking for info on “The Spectacular Spider-Man” and ended up in a loopback to the homepage. It’s like they started a site overhaul and forgot to finish it.

#### 90sKidForever
Yeah, the state of CW4Kids.com is pretty indicative of the broader chaos. I miss the old Kids’ WB site; at least it was updated regularly. Now, with the CW4Kids, it’s as if they’re not sure what direction they’re taking - both online and on-air. I get transitional challenges, but there should be some coherence, right?

#### DigitalDawn
Actually, this transition phase seems typical when a major network change happens, but it’s a real test of patience for us fans. On-air, it’s like we’re in a no-man’s land between the legacy of Kids’ WB and the future vision of 4Kids Entertainment. CW4Kids.com feels like a work in progress, reflecting that same uncertainty. Does anyone know if there’s any plan in place to solidify the brand identity, or are we stuck in this hybrid zone for the foreseeable future?

#### ViewerInTransition
As far as I can tell, ViewerInTransition, the issue is really about getting all the moving parts to work together. From what I’ve pieced together, it might be a mixture of contractual, branding, and logistical hurdles that are causing these hiccups. As for CW4Kids.com, it seems it’s not the priority right now, but I heard from a forum elsewhere that a major update is supposed to be in the works before the fall season starts. Let’s hope that includes fixing the website and giving us a clearer direction on the programming front.

#### CoolToonWatcher
That’s somewhat reassuring, ViewerInTransition. A coherent brand presence online and a stable lineup could really help cement The CW4Kids as a worthy successor to the Saturday morning throne. Fingers crossed that by this fall, we’ll have a clearer understanding, and CW4Kids.com will be a hub we can actually use.

#### SaturdayMornNostalgia
In the meantime, guess we’ll all just have to stay tuned (and maybe refresh CW4Kids.com a little less frequently). Thanks for the insights, everyone. It’s reassuring to know it’s not just me scratching my head over the current state of our beloved Saturday morning ritual!
