new to the station. Ten other series, including two Teletoon Original Productions,

CINETOONS Special Presentations will show two features this September, Teletoon Original Production Dragons: Fire and Ice, and the live-action Scooby Doo.
Kids' WB!
Kids' WB! has only three
new shows debuting this fall. Why so few? First, many of their shows are
successful enough to be renewed. But mostly because, like many networks,
the WB is trying to debut shows gradually, all throughout the year.
John Hartman, senior vice-president of Kids WB! commented that, "In the ever-changing landscape of kids' television, Kids' WB! has solidified its dominance as the #1 broadcaster for kids, building on its success of creating high-quality hit after hit... We are now gearing up with a crop of fresh new hits-in-the-making for our powerhouse schedule. In the spirit of our partnership with Cartoon Network, we will continue to jointly deliver quality programming and expand on the longevity of our many series to ensure that Kids' WB! programs reach and establish a new generation of fans."
Premiering this fall are Kids' WB! originals Da Boom Crew, The Batman, and Gagsters, as well as the live-action movie Zolar. Returning with new episodes are Jackie Chan Adventures, Megaman NT Warrior, ¡Mucha Lucha!, Pokemon, Teen Titans, Xiaolin Showdown, YU-GI-OH!What's New Scooby Doo? is even newer this March, and April will bring more Astro Boy.
