I am very surprised that they didn't review one of my favorite Kids' WB shows: XIAOLIN SHOWDOWN. This cartoon was one of the higher quality cartoons ever on the block. Filled with everything, including: action, comedy, drama, subtle life lessons, character development and growth. It even had a fun and interesting overall plot and gimmicks to separate it from other shows. They even had specials, merchandise, and contests for kids and teens. Needless to say, it's among my top favorites.

The Batman was a show that I didn't watch too much of but when I did, it was really good. That version of the Joker had a very unique design and an amazing voice. Mad respect. I might revisit it. Also, I loved Krypto the Superdog growing up. I used to stay up late watching it with my brother.

49:59 The Batman series is my personal favorite. What I loved most about it, is how it chronicles the story of Bruce's journey from lone vigilante to a hero of the world. Tom Kenny as Penguin is just perfect. Each season is open and ended with no cliffhangers. The first season is The Batman saga. The 2nd the Dark Knight saga. The 3rd, the Batgirl saga. The 4th, the Batman and Robin saga. And the 5th, the Brave and the Bold saga. And of course, you have the tv movie Batman vs Dracula.

21:00 After making it through the 90s and Wolverine and the X-Men with Disney+, I honestly think Evolution holds up the best. The core of the X-Men to me is surviving adversity and being a hero. The 90s might hit the hero stuff better, but I think Evolution really captured the essence of growing up as an outcast. Having the younger and older group was also really good because you could occasionally have the major threats that Wolverine, Storm, and Beast got to face.

When he said ‘Road Rovers’ it sounded kinda familiar. Then I saw the cartoon characters from it it unlocked memories I didn’t know I had 😂 Though faint memories at first, the more you talk about it and the more footage I see the more is coming back to me.

I cannot imagine how much work went into this review. The sheer volume of shows reviewed had to take months. Y’all shot this as if it’s just y’all talking around a TV. But there had to be a matrix butt ton of research for this video. Thanks for that really sweet hit of nostalgia.

Kids WB! The TV block were we just looking for after a hard day and to get home after school. So many great shows. Animaniacs, Tiny Toons, Yu-gi-oh, Pokemon, even Mucha Lucha and so much more. So many memories. I miss those times

The simple things were and still are the best things in life

I grew up watching KidsWB when I was young. Starting with Animaniacs, Superman, and Pokemon until the late 2000's when it seemed they didn't have as much good content as before. But watching new episodes on Saturday morning was such a treat that is now feels like a relic of the past. I guess it was nice while it lasted.

This is probably my favorite of these Disney Afternoon video spin-offs I've seen since.... Well, the Disney Afternoon video. I remember most of these shows (all except that Wayans cartoon), and getting everyone on the team to cover shows they remember was a smart way to get all grounds covered.

I know episodes like this can't cover everything, but I'm honestly surprised Xiaolin Showdown didn't make the cut. Maybe it's the nostalgia glasses, but I remember that show being one of the flagships for the programming block. This NC episode had me cracking up though. Thank you for a good time.

I will never not love an nc episode with critic, Tamara, Walter, Malcolm, and Heather talking about something giving a good retrospective I love it

Static Shock was my literal childhood show. Im glad they havent touched it. Its crazy to see how far Phil Lamarr has come since then. He definitely deserves an appearance as a DC Hero, but the original show deserves to be left alone and to stay as absolutely iconic as it is.

Glad you got to talk about Ozzy & Drix.

Those are some nice closing words for this video. Seeing most of these shows spoken about with so much passion can't help me feel happy to see that other people enjoyed these shows as much as I did. Reminds me of those great days when my friends and I would talk about these shows on the playground. Makes me question if kids nowadays have shows that will impact them forever? 🤔 Alright enough sounding old lol, great video! You guys never fail

49:37 I remember watching the Zeta Project and I loved it. It was a great DC Cartoon about a robot searching to find his freedom and try to fit into society. It was also great that a teenage girl tries to help Zeta on his quest. The animation was fine in my opinion. Not the best like you said, but the plot and theme of the cartoon was great. Wish it hadn't ended on a cliffhanger.

WB was really incredible growing up, so many good shows like Yu-Gi-Oh, Pokemon, mucha Lucha, Animaniacs, Jackie Chan Adventures, and one of my favorites in most underrated cartoon Xiaolin Showdown along with other shows that are still love to this day.

Yeah, it was so good that I barely watched Fox Kids (only watching Fox Kids for Digimon and Shaman King).

Yeah, not gonna lie, Colleen's accent in "Road Rovers" definitely drew my attention as a kid. And that 1000-yard stare on Walter at the prospect of more Bat-May editions was *way* too real.

36:17-I may get flak for this, but I prefer this theme song to the original.

This was a great video. Loved how you talked about all these great shows. I actually grew up a lot with the KidsWB and Im glad you guys talked about it. Hope to see you talk about more programming blocks in the future. perhaps maybe Disney's 1 Saturday Morning on ABC. Until then, Keep up the good work guys. Also, Tamara had all the best jokes in the review. literally had me rolling on the floor every time I saw her punch Critic in the face.

Saturday mornings were never the same after this amazing channel left us. Some of childhood’s greatest memories were held in this 8-12 morning lineup. It will always be remembered.

Kids WB was a program block, not a channel, but yeah, when it was good, it was quite good.

I loved Ozzy and Drix as a kid because I was always into that Bugs Life "tiny world within our world" thing. I liked seeing how different parts of the body were made into a city, and also the plot lines about a kid juxtaposed to Ozzy and Co.

After all these years, I still remember almost every childhood shows that they mention, there are some others they forgot to mention on KidsWB… anyway I still remember, back in my elementary school years I always come home and turn the TV on the channel 5 to watch the KidsWB at 3pm - 4pm Pacific time especially Saturday morning cartoon times… those were my great childhood memories… now here comes the sad part… I still remember on a weekday (school day), I was watching Transformers which at the time it was the very last day on a weekday and that time I was very sad about it too… now the year 2008 C.E., I remember I was there and watching, when KidsWB had their last Saturday morning cartoon before they change their name to become The CWKids😑. And I remember I had a glass of water and I made a sad farewell toast, I said, “KidsWB, thank you very much to be part of my childhood and you will not be forgotten,… we will meet again old friend in another time and in another lifetime!” That was the end!!! KIDSWB Thank you for being part of my childhood!!!!

Very impressive Doug & Co. Kids WB is without a doubt a hallmark in media history that holds a place in many millennial & Generation Z memories. There will be NO other program block like it. I am so glad you all covered this, keep up the amazing work!

26:57 The look of utter surprise on Bane's face😂 BatSupes: "You just got PRANK'D!"

The Batman was the first comic book related anything I ever watched and will forever hold a special place in my heart, with X men evolution followed right behind it.

I actually didn't catch Krypto: the Superdog until it aired in syndicated reruns on boomerang, but I'm nevertheless extremely nostalgic for it. And yes, I danced when Tamara presented that clip from the show's intro, AND I'M DAMN PROUD OF IT!!!!

This was MY channel. I had a sister a year older who always chose what we watched, and always put on Nickelodeon. I had a mother who only ever bought us princess and girl toys, because we were girls. Static Shock blew my mind as a young 10 or 11-year-old. The stories tackled real issues, and it was the first show I'd ever seen where a female superhero (She-Bang) wasn't there to be a love interest or a lesser partner, but just to lead her own path. I fell in love with Batman Beyond, too. Both those shows gave me the love of superheroes I carried with me my whole life. This video was such an amazing nostalgia trip. Thank you for letting me relive my childhood!

Of all the Saturday morning cartoon blocks that I grew up with, Kids WB! is probably the one that I have the most memories of. It’s where I discovered anime via Pokémon, Yugioh, Cardcaptors, Astro Boy, and Megaman NT Warrior; I got into the DCAU via Batman Beyond; the inverse crossover commercial clips where they combined all the characters together were inventive and hilarious. But the best thing about Kids WB! was that I got to experience it with my younger brother, and my best friends. Overall, I do miss that time period, and I’m glad I was able to grow up with it.

I'm so glad The Batman is finally getting more attention, some of the best villain iterations we've gotten

These are my favourite episodes, I love when the (mostly) group get together and talk about a bunch of different shows

49:00 I remember watching and liking the Zeta Project. I think when I was watching it, I was gradually growing out of these cartoons. I also didn't like waking up early. I don't think it was a show I needed to watch, but it felt like a special treat when I could see it. I feel like it also maybe ran in reruns for a bit.

Both because I loved Kids WB as a kid and because your gags are actually really funny and natural in this video, I think this might be my favorite video you've done on this channel in a very long time.

This was the main channel my brother and I grew up with. We first watched BTAS, Tiny Toons, Animaniacs, Pinky and the Brain, and Pokemon on here when we were real little. And we kept watching shows on there all the way up to 2006. Shows like X-men Evolution, Jackie Chan Adventures, Xiaolin Showdown, The Batman, Yugioh, Mucha Lucha, Legion of Superheroes, and Megaman NT Warrior were all big parts of our childhood. I have so many fond memories of Kids WB.

I loved Kids WB! Man, I forgot about a few of these (Road Rovers being one of them.) I can’t imagine how long it took you guys to make this- thank you! I loved Freakazoid. I was so sad when it was cancelled. The randomness of the humor was right up my alley after years of watching Animaniacs. I’m the same age as Doug and have the same reaction to Pokémon- I was a senior in high school when it came out so I never understood the appeal. SHOOOeeeee!

I loved this review and found it hilarious. When all these guys get together you know it's going to be amazing. The only thing I will nitpick about is that I wished they had at least mentioned the show called The Legion of Superheroes. It's about a young superman who travels to the future and team's up with the group of the same name and it only had two seasons. There were plans for a third but the show was cancelled after Kids WB went off the air. But all that said this is just a minor nitpick I have, everything else in this video is funny and well made as most Nostalgia Critic reviews are. Keep up the good work.

This is a weird nostalgia trip for me because I watched Kids WB for a few years as a kid, but around the time I would have normally stopped watching Cartoons (14/15ish) I was responsible for babysitting my nephew after school until my sister go off work so I watched many of these shows with him as a teen/young adult.

I'm glad someone addressed Histeria. It was (and still is) one of my favorite cartoons from childhood. It actually made me a bit of a history buff as an adult. On another note, WHERE'S XIAOLIN SHOWDOWN?

I’m so glad you talked about Histeria! & MIB. I grew up in a French island so we obviously didn’t have WB kids. But we got those shows and if MIB left an incredible impression on me, I totally forgot about Histeria! If you ever decide to do real episodes about those shows, I’m on board!

Man, it really makes me missed Saturday Cartoons Show these days. I love watching Yu-Gi-Oh, Pokémon, Xiaolin Showdown, Loonatics Unleashed, Static Shock, etc.

I like that you worked in all the references to Bat May. It made perfect sense for this episode, and I don’t know if this whole thing was because there has been so much demand for additional Bat May content. It would be nice if the entire team for Channel Awesome we’re to pitch in for Bat May spinoffs covering all of these various shows in the DCAU, and maybe the other iterations of Batman.

@@LordSvzklxSame! Not only is the design and voice acting killer, he’s the first iteration that isn’t a joke. There’s an episode where he competes with the Joker and Penguin to unmask Batman and he’s acknowledge as a legit rival to those heavy hitters. No need to turn him into Hush or whatever, he’s a diabolical mastermind in his own right.

Men in Black the series is one of those shows I can't believe you haven't done a full episode on before. I'm also glad you had clips of Histeria because I was almost certain that ENTIRE show was a hallucination brought about by middle school stress when I was 13. I even got into an argument with a friend of mine who thought the Osmosis Jones movie was based on the Ozzy and Drix cartoon instead of the other way around back in the day (nowadays we have the anime Cells at Work for that premise.) I'm a lover of animation, and Kids WB was actually one of my favorite programming blocks, I watched ALL of these shows from when I was in the 5th grade straight on into my early 20's when the block stopped airing.
