4Kids shows Sonic X — only over-the-air anime on that day
Sonic X, the only anime series that broadcast on an over-the-air network on Saturday mornings.
CW is the last over-the-air network to offer in-house Saturday children's programming where once all such networks did. Viewtiful Joe.
Thank you to travl2002 for the news tip.
Update: In 4Kids Entertainment's Norman Grossfeld notes that "Fox recently exercised its option to extend the term of our deal with them through the end of the 2008-2009 broadcast season." This extension means that for the 2008-2009 broadcast season, 4Kids will be programming for both Fox's Saturday block and CW's Saturday block. Thanks, Nebs.
