Fortunately it warmed up and actually got into the 70s and 80s. lol It was like we went from February to July in the span of one week. Thursday me and my bro went to a Pittsburgh Pirates game and on Sunday we went to a car show at this one Dairy Queen nearby. | DirtyD79 | Apr 19, 2016 | |

It did bring in an era of anime shows in American children's programming, and I think Yu-Gi-Oh further escalated that. However, I think there's a few other things that contributed to Kids WB's demise aside from just Pokemon.<br><br>Let's take a look at how the silver era really ended. We had Animaniacs. We had Pinky and the Brain. Those were all great shows. But what I also think contributed to this demise is corporate greed... or more specifically, Jamie Kellner. Yes, the same guy responsible for cancelling WCW took over as president of the WB Network, and he was the one that came up with the idea of retooling Pinky and the Brain... thus becoming Pinky, Elmyra, and the Brain. Needless to say, the show was a recipe for disaster... and even the show's staff hated it, but they didn't have a choice because it was the network's decision... not the writers. Unsurprisingly, the show did poorly, and it got cancelled ending the silver era.<br><br>Aside from Pokemon, another show that aired that I thought was good was Jackie Chan Adventures. Wasn't too big on X-men Evolution. But in my personal opinion, I feel that Yu-Gi-Oh made Kids WB a lot less interesting to watch than it did before.<br><br>Last thing that I believe led to Kids WB's demise... the rise of cable TV. Once cable channels continued to rise, it gave kids less of a reason to watch Kids WB... and it doesn't help that both Kids WB and Cartoon Network were sharing programming at one point. Regardless, I think even if Pokemon didn't come along, it still would have been inevitable that Kids WB was going to go down under at some point or another.</div> </i><b>-end quote</b></blockquote><br> | eddstarr | Apr 19, 2016 | |
