Jetix is a children's television programming brand run on Toon Disney, owned by The Walt Disney Company. It was previously known as Fox Kids.

Following the August 31st broadcast, ABC Family droped the Jetix block, which continued to air on its other home, Toon Disney.

Fox Kids

Before October 2001, Fox Kids was a 50-50 joint venture between News Corporation and Haim Saban. The ABC Family Channel was at that point known as the Fox Family Channel, and all the channels now branded Jetix were called Fox Kids. Fox Kids itself had been founded in 1996 as a merger between the US Fox Children's Entertainment and Haim Saban's Saban Entertainment. In October 2001, Saban and News Corp sold the group to The Walt Disney Company. The brand announced the change of name to Jetix in January 2004.

Until 2002, the brand had the rights to the children's programming slot on the Fox Broadcasting Company television network, however after the sale, that slot was sold to 4Kids Entertainment. The slot, initially known as the "FoxBox", is now named 4Kids TV. However, a few Jetix programs are broadcast on the ABC television network, under the ABC Kids brand. It is mainly broadcast on the Toon Disney network.
