History

In 1988, Disney purchased independent television station KHJ-TV in Los Angeles, later changing its call letters to KCAL-TV. The station's new owners wanted DuckTales to be shown on KCAL, effectively taking the local television rights to the animated series away from Fox-owned KTTV. Furious at the breach of contract, Diller pulled DuckTales from all of Fox's other owned-and-operated stations in the fall of 1989. Diller also encouraged the network's affiliates to do the same, though most did not initially. As Disney went forward in developing The Disney Afternoon, Fox (whose schedule at the time was limited to prime time programming on Saturday and Sunday nights) began the process of launching its own children's programming lineup. Fox Kids was launched on September 8th, 1990, as the Fox Children's Network, a joint venture between the Fox Broadcasting Company and its affiliates. Originally headed by division president Margaret Loesch. In September 1991, the block was rebranded as the Fox Kids Network. In 1998, Fox Kids Network became Fox Kids. In 2016, the Logo was changed to the modern Fox Logo with a beach ball over the I. In 2016, three shows came on Fox Kids, Spongebob With Pluto, SpongeToons, and Bikini Bottom Survival. On November 3rd, 2016, Plutoinapineapple launched a new network called Playhouse Disney and SpongeBot678 took over Fox Kids. SpongeBot678 rebranded the network on November 5th, 2016. On November 11th, 2016, the network stopped broadcasting at 11am for 2 minutes due to it being Veterans/Remembrance Day.^[1]
