'''Fox Kids Worldwide''' was originally formed in 1990 as '''Fox Children's Productions''', serving as the production unit of the then-newly-launched Fox Kids block which was a joint venture between the News Corporation, owner of the [[Fox]] network and its affiliates. In 1996, the company became a joint venture with longtime partner [[Saban Entertainment]] and was renamed to Fox Kids Worldwide. The next year, the company purchased The Family Channel and its parent company, International Family Entertainment, and turned it into Fox Family, forming Fox Family Worldwide; however, Fox Kids Worldwide continued to be operated as an in-name-only unit for distribution of shows as well as producing programs, by this point all Fox Kids original programming from that period was produced and/or licensed by Saban.

'''Fox Kids Worldwide''' was originally formed in 1990 as '''Fox Children's Productions''', serving as the production unit of the then-newly-launched Fox Kids block which was a joint venture between the News Corporation, owner of the [[Fox]] network and its affiliates. In 1996, the company became a joint venture with longtime partner [[Saban Entertainment]] and was renamed to Fox Kids Worldwide. The next year, the company purchased The Family Channel and its parent company, International Family Entertainment, and turned it into Fox Family, forming Fox Family Worldwide; however, Fox Kids Worldwide continued to be operated as an in-name-only unit for distribution of shows as well as producing programs, by this point all Fox Kids original programming from that period was produced and/or licensed by Saban. In 2001, due to the network not performing well, Fox Family and Saban were sold to Disney; this left Fox Kids, now back in the News Corporation's hands, without a big portion of their programming. With this, plus them struggling with the changing scene of children's television with other Saturday blocks and cable channels outranking them in the ratings, and affiliates wanting to use the daytime hours used by the block for their own programs, Fox discontinued the weekly block and put the remaining Saturday morning timeslot up for bidding, with [[4Kids Entertainment]] winning and securing the rights to program that period. The Fox Kids block continued to air in repeats until September 7, 2002, and was replaced the following week (on September 14) by the 4Kids-programmed FoxBox (later renamed 4Kids TV); Fox Kids Worldwide was then closed. |
