KIDS' WB ON THE CW In September, 2006, the WB will merge with UPN to form the CW Television Network , the letters representing the first initial of its corporate parents CBS (the parent company of UPN) and the Warner Bros. unit of Time Warner. Kids' WB! will continue on the new network. On April 24 , 2006 , Kids' WB! announced its schedule as a part of the CW, under the slogan ''Too Big for Your TV''. The schedule is as follows:
Source: Press release There is some confusion over the name the new program block will take. The Kids' WB! name will definitely be kept, but many articles appear to refer to it as "Kids' WB! on the CW", most notably {Link without Title} , which seemingly indicates that "on the CW" will be in the name, although these sources do not have any formatting indicating whether they should be read as ''Kids' WB! on the CW'' or ''Kids' WB!'' on the CW.

AfterToons Show Beginning April 18 , 2005 , Kids' WB! changed the weekday lineup promo to "AfterToons Show", and made it look as if the characters were acting in their shows, and the commercial bumpers included Kids' WB! characters doing acts on a stage, and a voice singing things like "Stick around for more AfterToons Show! Kids' WB!" or "We now return to the AfterToons Show! Kids' WB!" and featuring online Xiaolin Showdown games of "Raimudo's Sword of the Storm". During the summer of 2005, Kids' WB! did their second annual "Crash the Backlot Tour", where they tour the country to Six Flags Theme Parks, and kids could audition to be on the AfterToons Show. In August , Kids' WB! ran a contest to "Make a Mini Mucha Movie" where using a certain program, viewers could make a computer movie featuring ¡Mucha Lucha! characters. The top five where shown in the AfterToons Show. The AfterToons Show was discontinued December 30 , 2005 with the rest of the weekday lineup. Halloween Duel of Screams In was disqualified for eating The Flea from ¡Mucha Lucha! , Ash Ketchum from Pokémon almost lost to Joey Wheeler from Yu-Gi-Oh! , and Jade Chan from Jackie Chan Adventures beat Yugi in the final round.

During this, the Kids' WB! mascot, the Holiday Sock, usually goes inside of the Kids' WB! promotional watertower, with other characters, doing Christmas-related things. In 2001 and 2002 , the sock was the sole host, but in 2003 The Flea from ¡Mucha Lucha! co-hosted. In 2004 the sock granted the wishes of viewers who wanted to "turn into something" on TV.
