- Fox Kids had a strong rivalry with Kids' WB.
- Many cool looking bumpers and promos to watched.

Bad Qualities
- Some awful shows that the block aired included Angela Anaconda, The Ripping Friends, Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation, etc.
- Fox Kids treated some shows like crap. For example, The New Woody Woodpecker Show which aired on the Saturday block for 4 months and moved to the sweet slot at 4:30PM to be replaced by Power Rangers Lost Galaxy. Season 2 of Woody Woodpecker was supposed to air in Fall 2000 but Digimon messed up the schedule, but it premiered in September 2001 where it aired at 2PM with a lot of pre-emptions. The weekday block ended in December 2001. Season 3 of Woody Woodpecker began airing in May 2002 and ended in July 2002. The block and the show disappeared 2 months later... Another example of this is Oggy and the Cockroaches. It premiered in September 1998 and only aired for 6 months.
Trivia
- The block was later replaced by FoxBox (due to the program by 4Kids) and then later 4Kids TV.
- Most of the Fox Kids/Saban library (including the shows that were based on Marvel Comics) were currently streaming on Disney+, and while some other shows, such as Power Rangers, Digimon and The Tick were streaming on other services.
