Kids' WB! Toonami

Kids WB Toonami was a short lived Toonami block that ran from July 30, 2001, until June 30, 2002. The Kids WB version of Toonami was, more or less, the Kids WB lineup with the Toonami name. The Kids WB Toonami aired Monday through Friday from 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm. It was critically panned by industry observers and fans alike, who noticed the action branding of the block did not translate content wise, which had added shows like Scooby-Doo and "The Nightmare Room", a live-action series created by Goosebumps author R. L. Stine.

The Kids WB version of Toonami featured the Absolution, TOM, and SARA, but TOM (voiced by Steve Blum) never spoke.

In spring 2002, Kids WB announced that they would drop the Toonami name from their weekday lineup, once again making the Toonami brand exclusive to Cartoon Network.
