Fox Kids was the Fox Broadcasting Company's American children’s' programming division and brand name from September 8, 1990 until September 7, 2002. The channel focused on young children, aged 7 - 11 and preteens, aged 12 - 14. The network lived to be the longest running children’s television block/network, alongside Nickelodeon and managed to have high ratings throughout its run. Fox Kids' history is closely intertwined with the history of The Disney Afternoon, airing series like Gummi Bears, Ducktales, Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers, DarkWing Duck and Aladdin. Later on, Fox Kids aired several shows of Warner Bros. Animations, such as Animaniacs and The Magic School Bus.
By 2001 Fox Kids felt like they couldn't compete anymore with the other big childrens networks and it was overtaken by Kids WB, containing programs like Pokémon and Yu-Gi-Oh! Even later, Disney owned the companies rights and therefore also the rights of series like Digimon, Power Rangers, Bobby's World and X-Men.
